Vol. 17 - July 2020
by Hunter Bush
How's everybody doing out there? States are reopening, businesses resuming in some feeble attempt at "normalcy" but I keep getting this sinking feeling... and maybe this is just me but, does anybody else keep feeling like we're in the middle of Jaws when the mayor (Murray Hamilton) refuses to close the beach in the middle of prime tourism season despite the warnings of experts? Ugh. Well, I hope wherever you are you're doing well and staying safe.
As for me, I'm back with your July installment of Everything Old Is New Again, my - now monthly - column where I attempt to keep y'all abreast of upcoming releases that fall under the EOINA purview: Remakes (a movie, but again), Adaptations (used to be a book, TV show, play or what have you but now it's a movie) and Long-Gap Sequels (the last one came out *how* long ago?) and things of that ilk.
Since no one in their right mind is going back to theaters right now, I'm sticking to what flicks and series' are coming to the various streaming services around. The downside of this set-up being that streaming services are kind of difficult to get reliable release dates and/or trailers from. But I did my best and, whenever possible, tried to give my overall impression of the type of movie or series we'll be getting. Appearances *can be* deceiving however, don't forget.
