Taylor Swift's filmed Eras Tour has found a home on Disney+. The concert film will arrive on the platform on March 15, Disney CEO Bob Iger announced during the company's earnings call Wednesday. Disney likely faced a bidding war for the pop star's latest filmed concert, following the blowout popularity of her tour. In total, Swift's film generated more than $180 million at the domestic box office and more than $261.6 million worldwide. The concert film shifted to on-demand availability on Dec. 13, the singer's 34th birthday, with a rental fee of $19.89, the year she was born.

Staff turnover in Republican Rep. Nancy Mace's office is about as high as possible as she deals with a primary challenge from a former chief of staff, a recent report revealed. On Monday, The Daily Beast reported that her entire Capitol Hill staff has turned over since November 1. The only person fired was her former chief of staff, Dan Hanlon, whom she let go on December 1, 2023, and who reportedly left with the office popcorn machine. Mace's conduct in office has done more than rankle her former staff: it's also given her opponents plenty of fodder in their campaigns to unseat her. AdvertisementA representative from Mace's staff did not respond to Business Insider's request for comment.

A Texas state senator said a Texas-based basic income plan will "hand out money like popcorn." State Sen. Paul Bettencourt asked the state attorney general to declare it unconstitutional. Bettencourt's request came on the same day that the program — called Uplift Harris — started taking applications. The Uplift Harris program plans to provide eligible households in Harris County, which includes Houston, $500 a month for up to 18 months. "We just can't hand out money like popcorn on street corners to people that walk by," Bettencourt told Fox.

At Heart of Gold, a cozy bar in Queens, a mad scientist recently brought to life a corpse that went on a blood-drenched rampage. That’s because the undead were marauding on a screen, set up at the front of the bar, that was illuminated by “Re-Animator,” Stuart Gordon’s 1985 horror-science fiction splatterfest. The occasion was a Monday night gathering of the Astoria Horror Club, which meets regularly to watch scary movies over hot dogs, mulled wine and other anything-but-popcorn concessions. Before the film, Tom Herrmann and Madeleine Koestner, the club’s co-founders, introduced “Re-Animator” with a trigger warning about a sexual assault scene and a reminder to generously tip the staff. The Astoria Horror Club is just one of many film clubs that, while not new in concept, are quietly thriving in and around New York City.

This upgrade can perk up your eating in the new year

What’s a grocery upgrade? bhofack2/iStockphoto/Getty ImagesI consider a grocery upgrade to be a small splurge, not a big investment. Here are some examples of how I upgrade my grocery list when I need a pick-me-up. It’s my least favorite winter task, so I choose to reward myself with a grocery upgrade for getting the job done. Canned clams are a pantry staple for me as well since I love to keep them on hand for a quick dinner of one-pot clam pasta and clam chowder.

We spent our Epcot days sampling smaller bites around the World Showcase, which served as budget-friendly breakfasts, lunches, and dinners.

Hannah Beier | The Washington Post | Getty ImagesCall 2023 an explosive comeback at the box office. Together, those three films contributed more than $1.5 billion to the domestic box office, according to data from Comscore. But in the meantime, here's a look at some of the most important theatrical releases of 2023 — and why they worked. Meanwhile, Disney has seen its animated content lag at the box office in the wake of the pandemic. "His Only Son," a biblical drama released in early 2023, cost $250,000 to make and generated $12.4 million at the box office.

Up a stairwell with popcorn walls stained black, he found a hallway ceiling with jumbles of wires for illegal electrical connections. He rounded a corner, and suddenly he and the two men guiding him heard a high-pitched squeal that sounded like a wire whipping through the air. The two guides ducked and ran. Something is happening,” Mr. Hamman said. He took a few steps away, then caught sight of a small flame glowing from one of the wires strung overhead.

I found myself at the movies this year more often than last. And though neither metric has yet rebounded to prepandemic levels, it finally feels like the movies are, in some sense, back. Maybe it was the monotony of at-home streaming or just the desire to finally get off the couch. A quick scan of The New York Times’s list of the year’s best movies makes the point. The films, picked by the critics Manohla Dargis and Alissa Wilkinson, span a number of genres, including dramas and biopics.

Fans in silver hats, pants and boots flooded movie theaters on Thursday night as they came to see Houston’s own Beyoncé on the silver screen. Movie theaters nationwide prepared to receive the BeyHive, and at the AMC Houston 8, special cocktails were served in a silver disco ball, with souvenir soda cups and popcorn buckets. “Whatever gets me the Beyoncé cup,” Paris Louis, 25, told the cashier at the concession stand as he purchased empty receptacles, no popcorn or soda needed. Mr. Louis bought his tickets for Thursday’s premiere a month in advance and already had tickets to see the movie again. In Houston, some theaters had sold out their evening shows.

While median household incomes in California are nearly a third higher than in Florida, the poverty rate is also higher. Forty-one percent of fourth graders in Florida test at or above the proficiency level in math, versus 35 percent nationally. By eighth grade the states are equally weak, at 23 percent at or above proficiency in math, below the (disappointing) 26 percent national average.

As she surveyed the landslide, Florschutz was shocked at how large it was. Being in Alaska forces people “to learn to live with others and help each other.

That felt somewhat apropos given that Jelly Roll got his start in the rap game before becoming a country rocker (watch his doc “Jelly Roll: Save Me” on Hulu if you want to learn more).

One of my go-to gifts over the years has been flavored salt — always useful on popcorn or around the rim of a margarita, I figure — but this season I plan to present my loved ones with a different addition to their pantry: chile flakes. Easily slotted into a stocking or attached to a larger gift (a backyard pizza oven, say, or a spice drawer organizer), chile flakes are another one of those kitchen staples that can be noticeably improved when done thoughtfully. Pizza Marvin, a Providence, R.I., pie shop that combines a nostalgic neighborhood feel with careful attention to ingredients, makes its own fragrant mix using locally grown peppers. The Athens-based herb purveyor Daphnis and Chloe sells a jar of flakes made out of Karatzova peppers that have been smoked for 10 days before being crushed by hand. (If your recipient becomes obsessed, next year you can give them a bulk jar.)
