Morning Tea: Stranger Things in Atlanta

Posted on November 8, 2021September 18, 2023 By Sammy Younan No Comments on Morning Tea: Stranger Things in Atlanta

Stranger Things!

The Shadow!

Atlanta! Brew a strong tea: yo!


The First Yo of The Day.

Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of Mondays?

#Pulp that To Do List today…all week.

(Image by Francesco Francavilla dude is so good!)


Fresh Kicks

As for today’s cover image: I always check out a stand up comic’s sneakers soon as he comes out.

Especially for specials because dope kicks make a special truly special.

Here is what Roy Wood Jr wore for his latest special Imperfect Messenger: 1985 Nike Dunk High Acid Wash.

There should be a blog for comedy and kicks.


Disney+ Is Taking It To The IMAX!

Disney Plus is trying! I just wish the actual monthly offerings look as good as this…

“Disney Plus is the first major streaming service to provide the Imax Enhanced features for at-home viewing (although of course without Imax’s gargantuan screens).

The 13 titles available in the Imax-enhanced format include the Disney Plus premiere of Shang-Chi and the Legend of The Ten Rings on Nov. 12. The others are Iron Man, Guardians of the Galaxy, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Captain America: Civil War, Doctor Strange, Thor: Ragnarok, Black Panther, Avengers: Infinity War, Ant-Man and the Wasp, Captain Marvel, Avengers: Endgame and Black Widow. Ok then…#SetTheVCR??


#SetTheVCR…PSA: A Snowpiercer Update

“I said: brr… It’s cold in here!

There must be some Snowpiercer in the at-mos-phere!”

A #SetTheVCR…PSA: Snowpiercer: Season 3 circles around on January 24, 2022.

Bring It On!

Attention passengers! Season 3 of #Snowpiercer arrives January 24, 2022. This is one train you won’t want to miss. pic.twitter.com/Xe85SqWfBt

#SetTheVCR…#PSA: Atlanta: Season 3

Atlanta: Season 2 ended 2018. And it was only 11 episodes. To take this long the standards for Season 3 are ridiculous. If Hiro Murai is back then so am I! Dude directed 7 of the first season’s 10 episodes, 7 episodes of Season 2 including “Teddy Perkins.” That dude is the unsung hero of this series. He In; I’m in!

I Got Furious Over This Real Fast!

“Vin Diesel Asks Dwayne Johnson To Return For Fast And Furious Conclusion.”

Nah Man: Don’t Be Weak.

Fast and Furious movies are better without The Rock.

It’s bad enough Paul Walker won’t conclude the saga.

Don’t Hobbs-le the franchise with Dwayne Johnson.

This clown made Rampage and Skyscraper. Hit the bricks. The series is called Furious so be it.


The NBA 75th Anniversary Season: Jordan Is A Money #GOAT

You truly can’t celebrate the NBA’s 75th Anniversary without recognizing Michael Jordan’s incredible wealth.

He built this financial house of the modern NBA as much as the TV contracts did.

#TrailerAlert: The Hating Game

Lucy Hale is the hot chick; Austin Stowell is the hot dude and they hate each other. Or do they…

December 10, 2021 if you’re gonna sit through this.


#SetTheVCR…PSA: Stranger Things: Season 4

Let’s visit 1986 in the Stranger Things: Season 4 trailer: Welcome to California. (What happened to Hawkins?!)

That’s one year after The Breakfast Club came out…which is roughly how old the cast of kids is now. Are they in college yet? This season takes place during spring break so it should be wild.

The fourth season will have nine episodes and Chapter One is entitle The Hellfire Club.

I know the Hellfire Club is real but I’m assuming because it’s Stranger Things this is a fun Marvel comics reference.

If you’ve seen X-Men: First Class you know who the Hellfire Club are. Otherwise that’s a deep cut for nerds only. That’s fresh!
