    1. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
    2. Asteroid City
    3. John Wick: Chapter 4
    4. Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3
    5. Dugeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

    Everything dies, baby, that's a fact
    But maybe everything that dies some day comes back
    Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty
    And meet me tonight in Atlantic City
