NEW MOVIES TO STREAM

— It’s been 40 years since the first “Ghostbusters” and some people might think it’s time to move on. I’m not afraid of ghosts, but I’m afraid of unnecessarily extended film series. “Ghostbusters: The Frozen Empire”, The streaming of “Frozen Empire,” which will be available on Netflix from Monday, has a lot to offer. Namely Kumail Nanjiani, who steals the show as the reluctant “fire master.” But “Frozen Empire,” in which the Spengler family (Paul Rudd, Carrie Coon, Finn Wolfhard, Mckenna Grace) returns to New York, has a fairly pleasant, child-friendly atmosphere. The original Ghostbusters Bill Murray, Ernie Hudson and Dan Aykroyd are also still there. In my review, I wrote that the film had “a modest charm as a family adventure with an 80s twist.”

— “Bob Marley: One Love,” streaming Tuesday on Prime Video, is the latest in a series of music biopics. The film, which first hit theaters in February, stars Kingsley Ben-Adir as the reggae legend. It’s a convoluted but sincere and textured approach to capturing one of the most powerful musical forces of the 20th century. In my review, I wrote that “the power and complexity of Marley are beyond the scope of ‘One Love,’ which is the framework of a typical biopic.”

— In “The Ministry of Gentlemanly Warfare” (from Thursday on Prime Video), Guy Ritchie tells a true historical story, albeit with plenty of exaggerated action movie attitudes. During the Second World War, a small gang led by an ex-criminal (Henry Cavill) sails to the West African islands to sabotage a fleet of German submarines. The story offers plenty of real-life intrigue, including James Bond author Ian Fleming himself. In my review, I praised Ritchie’s light-hearted and entertaining film, but lamented that the real stealth mission “would have been exciting enough if it had been told with a little historical accuracy.”

NEW MUSIC TO STREAM

— The long-awaited debut album from everyone’s favorite contemporary MC from the Bronx, Ice cream seasoning, comes Friday. On “Year of the Thousand!” Ice Spice amplifies her idiosyncratic, listless flow with rollicking, often hilarious bars. (This is immediately apparent on previously released singles like “Phat Butt” and “Think U The S— (Fart).”) She’s also released some heavyweight features: Travis Scott, Gunna and the biggest British rapper of the moment, Central Cee, are there.

— Australian electronic duo Empire of the Sun returns Friday with “Ask That God,” their fourth studio album and first in eight years since 2016’s “Two Vines.” Fans will remember Luke Steele and Nick Littlemore for their psychedelic dance-pop hit from 2008. “Walking on a dream” — and now there is new, similarly colorful and maximalist music to enjoy: Start with the shimmering “Cherry Blossom.”

— Every year, KCON takes place around the world and in the United States – a convention that celebrates K-pop, K-drama, K-food, K-beauty and everything under the umbrella of “Hallyu,” a term that describes the growing global popularity of Korean pop culture. It began 12 years ago in Irvine, California, and has grown exponentially in the years to come. Los Angeles KCON 2024 returns to the LA Convention Center and Crypto.com Arena and will take place July 26-28, with a lineup of NCT127, P1Harmony, BOYNEXTDOOR, Taemin and more. For those who can’t attend in person, each night’s performances will be streamed live on KCON’s official YouTube channel. The concert will also be broadcast live on the CW Networks for the first time ever on Sunday, July 28 at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

NEW SHOWS TO STREAM

— What would happen if the cast of Love Island caught the plague in their villa? This is how you could describe it “The Decameron” on Netflix, a black comedy set in Florence, Italy.

In the eight-part series, which premieres on Thursday, comedy pros such as Tony Hale, Zosia Mamet and Saoirse-Monica Jackson play in a wild romp full of sex, alcohol, love and mortality.

NEW VIDEO GAMES TO PLAY

— Fans of the original Legend of Zelda will surely find Arranger: A Roleplaying Puzzle Adventure comfortably familiar, with a green-clad protagonist battling monsters and finding treasure on a 2D map. The twist is that every time the intrepid Jemma moves, part of the landscape moves in the same direction. The developers promise a “playful sense of chaos and a regular stream of small, thoughtful puzzles.” It’s the debut title from an indie studio called Furniture & Mattress, with upbeat graphics from the artist who illustrated the cult classic Braid. The journey begins Thursday, July 25, on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, PC and Netflix (iOS and Android).
