However, this is a draft unlike any we’ve done before.

The Godfather! Back to the Future! Indiana Jones! Airport! … Species? That’s right, the latest addition to the ranks of our Movie of the Month franchise specials is the Species franchise, which also joins Airport in garnering my response of “Wait, that’s a franchise?”

Three films this week, but judging by the scores none of them are all that much to write home about, presumably why they’ve all been released in Captain Marvel‘s wake. Here’s what the LAMB community had to say about Five Feet Apart, Captive State and Wonder Park:
