From Oscar-winning director Robert Zemeckis (“Forrest Gump”) comes the fantasy adventure “Roald Dahl’s The Witches.” The film stars Oscar winners Anne Hathaway (“Les Misérable,” “Ocean’s 8”) and Octavia Spencer (“The Help,” “The Shape of Water”), Oscar nominee Stanley Tucci (“The Hunger Games” films, “The Lovely Bones”), with Kristin Chenoweth (TV’s “Glee” and “BoJack Horseman”) and award-winning comedy legend Chris Rock. Newcomer Jahzir Kadeem Bruno (TV’s “Atlanta”) also stars, alongside Codie-Lei Eastick (“Holmes & Watson”).
Reimagining Dahl’s beloved story for a modern audience, Zemeckis’s visually innovative film tells the darkly humorous and heartwarming tale of a young orphaned boy (Bruno) who, in late 1967, goes to live with his loving Grandma (Spencer) in the rural Alabama town of Demopolis. As the boy and his grandmother encounter some deceptively glamorous but thoroughly diabolical witches, she wisely whisks our young hero away to an opulent seaside resort. Regrettably, they arrive at precisely the same time that the world’s Grand High Witch (Hathaway) has gathered her fellow cronies from around the globe—undercover—to carry out her nefarious plans.
Based on the book by Roald Dahl, the screenplay is by Robert Zemeckis & Kenya Barris (TV’s “black-ish,” “Shaft”) and Oscar winner Guillermo del Toro (“The Shape of Water”). Zemeckis is also producing, alongside Jack Rapke, del Toro, Alfonso Cuarón and Luke Kelly. Serving as executive producers are Jacqueline Levine, Marianne Jenkins, Michael Siegel, Gideon Simeloff and Cate Adams.
Zemeckis’s behind-the-scenes team includes a roster of his frequent collaborators, including Oscar-nominated director of photography Don Burgess (“Forrest Gump”), production designer Gary Freeman, editors Jeremiah O’Driscoll and Ryan Chan, Oscar-nominated costume designer Joanna Johnston (“Allied,” “Lincoln”), and Oscar-nominated composer Alan Silvestri (“Polar Express,” “Forrest Gump”).
Giveaway: Ends 10/31/2020 at 11:59PM PT. Open to US residents only, must be age 18+. Prize provided by Warner Bros.

This weekend coming up is Father’s Day Weekend and we know you want to do something special with the kids. What better way then to have your little ones rock out to the music of Grateful Dead.
The Playhouse will host special concerts at 25 venues in 23 cities across the nation on June 15-16.
Special guests will join the Playhouse around the country for the celebration, including members of Barton Hills Choir and David Gans (Gallagher Way, Chicago), Catfish John (Brooklyn Bowl, Las Vegas), Franklin Turnpike (Industry City, Brooklyn), Stella Blues Band (Garcia’s, Port Chester), Mr. Blotto (Thalia Hall, Chicago), Three Days in the Saddle (Boulder Theater, Boulder), Bearly Dead (The Sinclair, Boston), Steal Your Peach (Ardmore Music Hall, Philadelphia), Sunshine Becker of JGB (UC Theatre, Berkeley), Deadikates (Brooklyn Bowl, NY), Crazy Fingers (Funky Biscuit, South Florida) and Better Off Dead (Gypsy Sally’s, Washington D.C.).
The Rock and RollPlayhouse is a family concert series that allows kids to “move, play and sing while listening to works from the classic-rock canon” (NY Times). Created by entrepreneur and owner of The Capitol Theatre and co-owner of the Brooklyn Bowl, Peter Shapiro, and Amy Striem, a certified Early Childhood and Elementary teacher, The Rock and RollPlayhouse uses music to educate children and explore their creativity.
The idea for The Playhouse came to Shapiro, a parent of two young children, after he discovered first-hand a lack of regular programming in New York City that combined his passion for live music and his family. He collaborated with Striem, then an administrator at his daughter’s nursery school, to help fill this void that they felt many other parents also shared. Using the music of the most iconic musicians in rock history, from The Grateful Dead to Prince to David Bowie to Aretha Franklin to The Beatles and more.
The Rock and RollPlayhouse offers its core audience of children under 10 with games, movement, and stories and an opportunity to rock out.
I took the kids to a show last year and they loved it… they danced they played… it was really the highlight of the weekend.
For me I’d love nothing more then a TV upgrade this year – with all the providers now pushing out 4k content, I think its finally the year to invest in a 4K TV. TCL’s 6-Series TVs combines superior 4K UHD picture quality with Dolby Vision, which delivers the ultimate HDR imaging experience. The popular Roku OS offers the most streaming content for countless entertainment options. For gamers, a responsive TV is just as important as one with a good picture. With 4K resolution, ultra-low lag-time, and Dolby Vision HDR, it offers both premium picture and responsive performance.
For the dad that loves arcade games and golf this is the perfect combination. This is the from the second wave of cabinets of Arcade1up and they did improve greatly on the first wave this 3/4 size machine comes with a special light up arcade marquee. Easy enough to find at most Wal-marts around the country.
I’m totally a tech head and when I heard that there was an app enabled dumbbells that count the sets, reps and weight and since they are adjustable from 5 to 60 lbs. It perfect for those of us that want to see the track of the improvement we make.
Jabra Elite 65t Alexa Enabled True Wireless Earbuds Charging Case

Over 275 styles to choose from, fitting for all the dads in your life. Be it for a dapper night out on the town or a great hat to wear hanging at the pool or beach.
It seems like my sunglasses last maybe a year or two at best, so I’m always looking for a great deal on the brands I love. Finding these folding Ray-Ban Wayfarers at a great price I knew I had found my next pair of shades. I think smartbuyglasses.com just got me hooked.
