Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of July 28, 2023.  Fans of Disney's Haunted Mansion ride will probably love the latest “Haunted Mansion” movie, but what about  Non-Disney fans? It's a tougher sell. There is a highly fictionalized movie about the people behind the Beanie Babies craze in the 1990s called "The Beanie Bubble". (Spoiler: Ty Toys does not come off well.)  A Sundance 2023 film hits wide release, “Theater Camp,” starring Ben Platt, and is full of funny moments and characters. On Netflix, there are two new movies this week “Happiness For Beginners,” based on the book of the same name, about Ellie Kemper's character going to re-center herself on an extended backpacking trip; and younger kids are beside themselves excited to watch “Miraculous Ladybug & Cat Noir: The Movie.” Also available to watch, a new horror movie called “Talk To Me” that’s pretty terrifying and dark,  a hyper-violent comedic action series on PeacockTV based on the “Twisted Metal” video game series, and a reunion movie of the mid-2000's show “Zoey101” cast called “Zoey 102” on ParamountPlus.
