This Week: The Writers Room for Legends of Tomorrow

An Honest Fangirl: Football season is officially upon us, so I spent far too many hours watching that and various pre and post game shows. But I've also been watching more Shudder documentaries. Horror's Greatest is currently airing and it's very good!

West Side Story (2021)

"You let them take me from you. How do I forgive you for that?"

There are some things that simply should not be remade. Madonna singing "American Pie?" The remake of Psycho? A reboot of Magnum PI? No, no, and again I say, no. You can guess what my reaction was when I heard that Steven Spielberg had chosen to remake one of the most revered movies of all time.

West Side Story
