It is perhaps only fitting that two documentaries about the disastrous Fyre Festival, one of the most high-profile fraudulent failures in history, would arrive during the same week — a fitting cap on a tragicomedy of errors that, as both films outline in excruciating detail, unfolded like a slow-motion plane crash in the spring of 2017. Far from the luxury accommodations and celebrity-chef-prepared meals promised by its chief producers — entrepreneur Billy McFarland and rapper Ja Rule — and the multiple “influencers” who were paid to promote it, concertgoers were met with flimsy tents, boxed lunches, near-total disorganization, a cancelled concert and long waits for flights to return to the mainland.
A compare/contrast between the two documentaries — “Fyre Fraud,” which was surprise-released on Hulu earlier this week, and Netflix’s “Fyre,” which arrived today — has been more than capably handled by Variety’s Daniel D’Addario in his review of both docs. While...

"It wasn't a dream. It really happened. Again." Open Road Films has also debuted a new Sundance trailer for the sci-fi film Before I Fall, from filmmaker Ry Russo-Young, which is premiering at the Sundance Film Festival next week. Adapted from Lauren Oliver's novel of the same name, this time loop story involves a high school teenager - played by Zoey Deutch - who ends up dying at the end of the night, only to wake up and restart the same day, which gives her a chance to "question just how perfect her life really was." The cast includes Halston Sage, Jennifer Beals, Logan Miller, G. Hannelius, Elena Kampouris, Diego Boneta and Alyssa Lynch. This still looks like a cheesy Ya movie, but I'm hoping there's something more to it, even just smart lessons to learn, or else why would it play at Sundance. Only time will tell. Take a look.

"If I was going to relive the same day over and over, I want it to be a day that would make a difference." Open Road has debuted the first official trailer for a film titled Before I Fall, an indie drama from director Ry Russo-Young. Adapted from Lauren Oliver's novel of the same name, this time loop story involves a high school teenager - played by Isla Fischer lookalike Zoey Deutch - who ends up dying at the end of the night, only to wake up and restart the same day. The synopsis says this give her a chance to "question just how perfect her life really was." Ah yes, the lives of teenagers, so perfect yet not so perfect. The cast includes Halston Sage, Jennifer Beals, Logan Miller, G. Hannelius, Elena Kampouris, Diego Boneta and Alyssa Lynch. This actually looks pretty good, I'm intrigued, and I plan...

On Monday, September 1, Lifetime ushered in a new generation of unauthorized biopics with its behind the scenes look at what really happened on the 1990s hit Saved by the Bell. The cast has largely disavowed themselves from the project and/or Dustin Diamond’s scandalous memoir Behind the Bell, and considering that the movie is based on that biography, it’s safe to say most of the things that happened in this movie didn’t really happen that way at all.
But still, we watch. We learn. We cringe. We tweet.

Lifetime went behind the Bell on Monday and unveiled what (allegedly) happened behind the cameras of our favorite childhood sitcom. But instead of Zack Morris running the show, this time it was all about Screech — and the story from outcast Dustin Diamond's perspective.
The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story, based on Diamond's tell-all memoir, began with the gang -- Dylan Everett as Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Sam Kindseth as Diamond, Tiera Skovbye as Elizabeth Berkley, Julian Works as Mario Lopez, Alyssa Lynch as Tiffani-Amber Thiessen, and Taylor Russell McKenzie as Lark Voorhies — pulling up to their first mall tour unaware their lives were about to change.

Hold on to your hats! It’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for! Lifetime has posted its first trailer for “The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story,” and it promises all of the ego, attitude and adolescent drama you’d want in a behind the scenes look at the making of the splashy '90s Saturday morning sitcom. Inspired by but not based on the 2009 book “Behind The Bell,” which was written by actor Dustin (Screech) Diamond, it’s unclear how far this will delve into scandal, but the memoir was apparently filled with sex and drugs, inciting the ire of some of his costars. Diamond serves as a co-producer on the film, which will star Sam Kindseth in the Diamond role, along with Dylan Everett (Mark-Paul Gosselaar / Zack), Alyssa Lynch (Tiffani Thiessen / Kelly), Julian Works (Mario Lopez / Slater), Tiera Skovbye (Elizabeth Berkley / Jessie) and Taylor Russell McKenzie...

Lifetime has released the first trailer for The Unauthorized Saved By The Bell Story, which gives us a look at the behind-the-scenes drama and madness that went on while the popular 1990s series was in production.
The movie was reportedly inspired by Dustin Diamond’s 2009 book Behind the Bell, which is a tell-all that claimed that when the cast wasn't shooting the show, they were getting crazy with drugs, sex, and wild parties.
It stars Dylan Everett (Mark-Paul Gosselaar / Zack Morris), Alyssa Lynch (Tiffani Thiessen / Kelly Kapowski), Julian Works (Mario Lopez / A.C. Slater), Tiera Skovbye (Elizabeth Berkley / Jessie Spano), Sam Kindseth (Dustin Diamond / Screech Powers), and Taylor Russell McKenzie (Lark Voorhies / Lisa Turtle).
The Unauthorized Saved By the Bell Story will air on Lifetime September 1st. This has definitely sparked my curiosity, so of course I have to watch it. This may very well be the first thing that I ever watch on Lifetime.

When you get a bunch of hormone-charged teenagers together for one of the most popular syndicated series ever, things are about to get crazy, as witnessed in a new trailer for "The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story."
The latest clip from the new Lifetime movie shows stars Mark-Paul Gosselaar (Dylan Everett), Mario Lopez (Julian Works), Dustin Diamond (Sam Kindseth), Tiffani-Amber Thiessen (Alyssa Lynch), Elizabeth Berkley (Tiera Skovbye), and Lark Voorhies (Taylor Russell McKenzie) both at work and at play, posing for promo shots while sniping at each other, flirting and making out, and enjoying wild parties. Gosselaar rides a motorcycle and gets threatened with grounding; Diamond punches a guy out for calling him Screech on the street.
While it all seems a bit over the top, we can't help but be excited to see how the whole flick shakes out. Its boasting that it's an unauthorized take on the...

While I'm sure most of you remember the original cast -- Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Tiffani Thiessen, Elizabeth Berkeley, Mario Lopez, Dustin Diamond and Lark Voorhies -- the movie will star Dylan Everett (seen above) as Zack Morris, Alyssa Lynch as Kelly Kapowski, Julian Works (Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones) as A.C.

Lifetime has released the first clip from their TV movie The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story. The movie gives a behind-the-scenes look at the all the drama in the series that we never saw on screen. On camera you would think that Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Dustin Diamond, Tiffani Thiessen, Mario Lopez, Lark Voorhies, and Elizabeth Berkley were all best buds. Apparently that wasn't the case, and off camera their relationships may have been hostile, as suggested in this first clip. I actually thought it was pretty amusing.

The Unauthorized Saved By the Bell Story focuses on the on-set life of the hit series Saved by the Bell, which ran from 1989-1993. And in a first clip from the Lifetime movie, viewers get a taste of the role that teenage hormones played in something as simple as a photo shoot.
The movie stars Dylan Everett as Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Julian Works as a very active Mario Lopez, and Sam Kindseth as a very vocal Dustin Diamond. Alyssa Lynch plays Tiffani-Amber Thiessen, while Tiera Skovbye plays Elizabeth Berkley and Taylor Russell McKenzie brings some attitude (and jealousy) as Lark Voorhies.

Lifetime released a sneak peek of The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story, a made-for-tv movie that claims to show what it was like behind the scenes of the popular 90s TV show.

The scene is set to Bell Biv Devoe’s “Poison.”
Apparently, while Zach (Gosselaar), Lisa (Voorhies), Kelly (Thiessen), A.C.
