We hope you're all enjoying your summer! It's been quite a strong summer for entertainment, especially this July. At Shot Blast Media, we've been discussing our favourite summer binges and cinema trips, and we thought we'd pass them by you. So, if you're back from your holiday and you want to fit in some last minute watching, these movies and shows may be perfect for you. The Boys: Season 1 Based on the comic book series of the same name, The Boys may look like just another superhero themed show, but there's a whole lot more to it. Streaming exclusively on Amazon Prime Video, the show tells the story of a world dominated by superheroes, whom behind the scenes all have dark lives and secrets they are hiding. A group of human characters led by the rough and wisecracking Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) join together to exploit the superheroes for all of their dark and dastardly deeds.

Whilst the age of streaming services is in full swing, there are many problems that are starting to arise from the influx in companies starting their own services, and the choice that subscribers have to make. The big question this week is: are there too many of them? Netflix, Amazon and Now TV are the biggest streaming services in the UK, and many would argue that these three are enough. Not everyone has all of them, but in order to get the best exclusives many people subscribe to multiple, to get a bit of everything. Yet, with the success of these services, many companies are looking to get their own slice of the action. Launching at the end of the year comes Disney +, an exclusive new streaming service that will be, you guessed it, Disney themed. This one sounds very exciting. With Disney being able to not only upload tons of their own backlog of content, but also having their [...]
