With release schedules being what they are these days (interrupted and uncertain), we're taking the opportunity to review some recent movies and shows that we missed the first time round. In our first installment - Succession! They’re filthy rich, appallingly entitled, and hopelessly manipulative - yet we somehow can’t get enough of the Roys. And the critics apparently agree, because since its premiere in 2018, Succession has picked up rave reviews and a slew of awards. Centred on the wealthy Roy family, which owns a global media empire, the show revolves around the various battles for control of the company between the patriarch, Logan Roy (Brian Cox), his children, and a whole cast of conniving characters. The show also stars, among others, Jeremy Strong, Sarah Snook, and Kieran Culkin.

Talking apes and Jedi Knights are cool, but how do they impact Hollywood as a whole? That's the kind of stuff we talk about on Popcorn Culture - a mixed-bag-exploration of the movies, TV shows, and pop culture buzz that we love, as well as the ones we love (slightly) less.
