It’s full speed ahead at MoviePass—even as it runs short of cash.

When Disney missed on earnings at the end of 2017, it announced a new Star Wars trilogy and the company’s stock price swiftly changed course. When it needed investors onboard with its upcoming streaming service, it pitched them with a Star Wars live-action TV show. Star Wars may not carry the same cachet with Wall Street anymore.

When Arrested Development and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt return to Netflix this week, audiences will only get tastes of their new seasons. Half the episodes will hit Netflix on May 29 and May 30, respectively, and the rest will roll out later this year.

Franchise fatigue hit Hollywood hard last summer. The sequels and remakes that the movie industry bet on, like the Transformers and Pirates of the Caribbean franchises and reboots like The Mummy, scored miserably on Rotten Tomatoes and couldn’t compel audiences to visit theaters. It was the worst-attended summer movie season (paywall) in the US in 25 years.

Netflix is even bigger than Disney now. The streaming-video service, which held its initial public offering 16 years ago this week, surpassed the movie, TV, and theme-park giant today (May 24) in market value.

Hollywood is rubbing off on Netflix.

Rejoice, The Expanse fans! Amazon has heard your calls.

America’s pay-TV and internet services are two of the most-hated industries in the country, but customers love their streaming platforms.

It’s the summer of Josh Brolin.

If you shopped for a Blu-ray copy of Predator, Fight Club, or Office Space at Walmart last week, you might have noticed an unfamiliar character dressed in red spandex with two katana swords strapped to his back. That’s Deadpool, and he’s not in any of those movies.

When is the best time to sign up for MoviePass? That’s a tough question to answer.

Six years after it started releasing its own programming, Netflix is basically remaking all of TV.

YouTube is scrapping its subscription video service YouTube Red and launching two new subscription services—one for music and video, and another purely for music—which will be distinct from Google’s other music-streaming service, Google Play Music. Sound confusing? It is. Here’s what we know about how it will work.

The Expanse is the rare sci-fi series that succeeds in telling a complex story of interplanetary relations with stunning special effects on a TV-sized budget. So, naturally, it was dropped by its US cable-TV home, Syfy, this week.

MoviePass still has a few tricks up its sleeve.

Do you love Netflix originals? Then we have some good news for you.

Google is being investigated by an Australian regulator for allegedly spying on Android phone users and having them pay for the privilege, according to a report by The Guardian.

There’s a battle brewing over who will control the next generation of TV bundles—one that brings all our online video services into a central app.

Netflix is now bigger than Comcast and can set its sights on Disney.

Tidal, the subscription music service owned by Jay-Z and other artists, has been accused of faking the streaming numbers for two of its highest profile exclusive releases.

With Avengers 4, Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige promised us something we’ve “never seen in superhero films: a finale.” However, the movie, due out May 2019, might not be the end we’ve been led to believe.

YouTube says more than 1.8 billion users log into the streaming platform each month to watch videos. That’d be about a quarter of the estimated 7.6 billion people on the planet last year—if individual people held each account.

Disney has mastered the blockbuster—so much so that its fiercest competition for record-setting box office takes is now itself.

If you thought MoviePass’s deal to see unlimited movies for $9.99 a month was insanely cheap, wait until you get a load of Sinemia.
