Black Lightning: The Complete First Season
Black Lightning is a wonderful addition to the DC family. The show has everything one could want from a good story and action/suspense to great family dynamics which are all wrapped up in a slick presentation that one would be mistaken to pass up.

Fury
Every year there are a few stand out films that are "must-sees". In 2014 Fury was one of those films. Now, four years later, this very unique war/action film can be rediscovered, better than ever.
