Just now, Jada Pinkett Smith said “All Eyez on Me” was “inaccurate” in how her story with Tupac Shakur (1971-1996) was told in the biopic. He never read a poem, he never […]
All Eyez on Me
Cars 3
Not many would call “Cars” a Pixar classic, but I found it to be delightful. The sequel wasn’t as fresh as the original, but it had its moments. And now, we have […]
