From hijackings to mind games at cruising altitude, these in-flight thrillers will have you gripping your armrest.

The new Mark Wahlberg thriller now in theaters, “Flight Risk” caught my attention and I’m planning on seeing it this week. Wahlberg (who I always have time for) plays a pilot navigating an intense flight with an air marshal and a fugitive on board. Set against the backdrop of the Alaskan wilderness, the film promises high-altitude suspense and a ton of “not all is as it seems” twists. It got me thinking about why thrillers on airplanes are so powerful. Maybe it’s because each one of us has had a moment on a flight during major turbulence where the thought has crossed our minds… “If this goes down, there’s not a lot of hope.”

In short, the stakes are just so high, and there are plenty of movies that capture that tension.

How Much Did Rihanna Pay To Rent A House During Super Bowl Lvii? (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Rihanna dropped a jaw-dropping $500K to rent a luxurious 6,400-square-foot mansion in Paradise Valley, Arizona, just for Super Bowl Lvii. The five-bedroom property, bought by cybersecurity expert Spyro Malaspinas for $7.3M in 2022, wasn’t meant for short-term leases. When a property management firm approached Malaspinas with the offer, he had no idea the Grammy-winning superstar would be the one calling his mansion home for the week.

It turns out that that very special tenant was none other than Rihanna herself. “The last thing I am is a real estate baron,” Malaspinas told The Wall Street Journal. “My pride’s not that big. I don’t mind moving out for $500,000 a week.” Uh, yeah, who would? Rihanna’s mansion was just 30 minutes from the Super Bowl stage, where she revealed her pregnancy, making her halftime performance a historic moment.

This claim, included in Universal’s thorough and impressive list of box office achievements for 2024, is technically true: “Domestically ‘Wicked‘ is now … the highest-grossing Broadway adaptation of all-time at the domestic office ahead of ‘Grease’ ($188.62M).”

Also technically true is that “The Grinch” is bigger than “Gone with the Wind,” “Sing” is bigger than “Jaws,” and “Five Nights at Freddy’s” is bigger than “The Godfather.” Also, the 1977 first “Star Wars” is only the third biggest success of that franchise.

Presenting grosses without adjusting skews the real picture of how they compare. It is a prime case of film history erasure, an all-too common occurrence these days. The somewhat (but not impossible in most cases) effort to sort out the true success of films through history starts with adjusting box office takes to current ticket prices. Normally, that is fairly simple, since we know the costs by year and can do the math.

Ask newer fans what the greatest musical of all time is and recency bias probably means the answer will be something like Rent or Les Misérables or Hamilton. Ask seasoned theater folk with wider frames of reference and Gypsy will usually land in the top three. For good reason. The 1959 warhorse is perhaps the ultimate tragicomic depiction of showbiz struggle, which makes it a strong contender for the ultimate Broadway musical.

It’s a cliché to call Rose, the archetypal pushy stage mother at the show’s center, the King Lear of musical theater. But that’s hard to dispute when you watch a consummate performer like Audra McDonald pour her heart and soul and every ounce of her gumption, her supple vocals and finely nuanced acting skills into the titanic role.
