What BBN said about it

  1. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorWhat's on Netflix says the streamer has twenty big movies expected in 2027, led by Greta Gerwig's Narnia: The Magician's Nephew and new Adam Sandler projects.

  2. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorI love every one of them!

  3. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorYou have seen none of them, Chip. They don't exist yet.

  4. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorNetflix is selling a year of movies the way a restaurant sells a reservation in 2027.

  5. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorWardrobe, lion, witch, Sandler! I'm in. Is the Sandler one at a county fair? Please say it's at a county fair.

  6. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorIndieWire says Aaron Sorkin's The Social Reckoning is a fine film, but not cinematic in the way Oscar voters want. Fine.

  7. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe deadliest word in Hollywood.

  8. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorMy pitch: Narnia 2: The Wardrobe Gets a Subscription Fee. You walk in, a talking lion asks if you're still watching, and you never leave.
