Unprecedented trailer looks at Trump’s final year in office

In the history of film, there’s never before been a documentary that made its public debut during a Congressional hearing. But such are the times in which we live. As revealed last month before the January 6 Committee hearings, documentary filmmaker Alex Holder had free rein to follow former President Donald Trump during the final year of his term. And as you can see in the Unprecedented trailer below, that includes the infamous January 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol building.

Trump, who lost the election to President Joe Biden, immediately claimed that there was a fraud behind his loss. As noted in the trailer above, even Trump-appointed judges didn’t go along with that in the absence of all credible evidence. Regardless, Trump followers descended upon the certification hearing of the election and managed to break into the Capitol building while it was still in session. The fallout from that event continues to play out in the January 6 hearings. But in the clip below, Trump sidesteps any and all responsibility for what happened.

Mike Pence, the former Vice President of the United States, invited Trump’s wrath when he resisted his calls to overturn the election. In turn, Trump supporters chanted “hang Mike Pence” as they broke into the Capitol. In this clip from the documentary series, Pence betrays no emotion as Congress calls for him to invoke the 25th amendment and remove Trump from office. Spoiler alert: He did not.

Holder’s three-part documentary will include additional interviews with Trump, Pence, Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump, and more key figures from the previous administration. Discovery+ will premiere the first episode on Sunday, July 10.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 gets a visual upgrade but stays wonderfully familiar
THPS 3 + 4

The year was 2001, and I was flat on my back in the middle of the street after bailing hard from a failed ollie.

Once I dusted myself off, I decided to try again, but in a safer, more digital aspect. Two decades ago, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 devoured my free time, and now the remake is back and doing the exact same thing. An excellent remake, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 brings two classic titles to a modern audience but adds little to the original experience in a way that leaves the game feeling curiously anachronistic.

Superman review: The Man of Steel soars to new heights
Superman readies to fight in Superman.

The new DC Universe made its theatrical debut with the release of James Gunn's Superman. Set three years after he revealed himself to the world as Superman, the film follows Clark Kent (David Corenswet) when he struggles to face threats at home and abroad and come to terms with his Kryptonian heritage, all while Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult) tries to turn the public against him with a global conspiracy.

Starting right in the middle of the action, Superman kicks off the DCU with a thrilling blockbuster adventure filled with action, humor, heart, and life. It is easy to forgive the excessive expositional dialogue when the film delivers an exciting and thought-provoking tale that stays true to the comics while putting a new spin on the Man of Steel.

If you have to watch one Disney+ movie this July 2025, stream this one
The cast of Saving Mr. Banks

Unlike most streaming services, the movies available on Disney+ tend to conform to a fairly standard mold. You've got a lot of big franchise films and a lot of movies aimed at children, and not a whole lot in between.

If you're looking for something a little more robust, or at least aimed at adults, you might want to check out Saving Mr. Banks. The movie tells the story of Walt Disney's quest to adapt Mary Poppins and his various attempts to woo the author of the book series it's based on, P.L. Travers. While the film is undeniably a little hagiographic, here are three reasons you should check it out.
