Enjoy outdoor movie season in Indianapolis
Why it matters: If they haven't already, most schools are preparing to welcome students back soon, which means summer nights are in short supply.
Plus: The heat is finally breaking this week, meaning a couple of hours outdoors might actually be enjoyable.
State of play: Tibbs is Indianapolis' only drive-in movie theater, a westside tradition since 1967.
Tibbs shows movies Thursday through Monday nights all summer long. With four screens, each showing a double-header, it's a great way to catch summer blockbusters for a great price.
Tickets are $13 for movie-goers 13 and up and just $6 for kids 12 and under.
Plus: You can bring your own snacks without having to sneak them in your purse, and pets are welcome.
Yes, but: Tibbs' isn't the only place to watch movies outdoors. Several other venues have gotten in on the fun and set up the occasional outdoor feature.
For families: White River State Park is hosting an outdoor movie night Friday, showing Disney/Pixar's "Cars."
Gates open at 8pm, and the movie starts at dusk. Lawn chairs and blankets are welcome. Tickets are $5 each or $20 for a family pass.
Snacks will be available for purchase. No outside food or beverages.
For movie buffs: Newfields' summer nights film series shows a mix of new, old, animated and classic movies. On Aug. 15, catch the 1968 "Planet of the Apes" starring Charlton Heston.

I've stayed at all of Disney World's priciest resorts — only one's worth it for its easy park access and great amenities
I visit Disney World at least twice a month. On about half of my trips, I stay at the most expensive resorts on the property, which Disney labels "deluxe." Deluxe resorts are often the closest to the theme parks and feature upgraded amenities and special restaurants. As they're above Disney's lower-cost value resorts and moderate options, they can get pricey. Starting rates at the deluxe resorts typically start at about $500 a night. I love all of the high-end places I've stayed at, but if I had to recommend just one on the entire Disney World property, it'd be the Riviera Resort. The resort brings a chic European style to the heart of Disney World From the outside, the grayish resort doesn't look like much. However, the interior is stunning and filled with custom artwork inspired by Disney's princesses and movies set in Europe, like "The Aristocats." I also love that the resort has two pools. One is a dedicated quiet pool with plush seating and shaded tables that's mainly for adults looking to relax. The other is more family-friendly with a slide and water features that are fun for kids. There's also plenty of upscale amenities on the property, like a beautiful gym and a rooftop bar overlooking the Disney Skyliner gondola system. Even better, the Skyliner can easily take guests to two of Disney's theme parks, Epcot and Hollywood Studios. Getting to the latter can sometimes take about 30 minutes (and requires a transfer), but the ride to Epcot is only about eight minutes. The resort has a broad range of accommodations, ranging from studios that sleep two to massive three-bedroom villas that sleep 12 and are complete with a formal dining room, full kitchen, and outdoor deck. My favorite is the resort's one-bedroom villa, which can sleep up to five people. It has a beautiful main bedroom that's attached to a marble-covered bathroom. The open living room and kitchen double as another sleeping space with two pull-down beds. The villa has a lot of storage, which I really love. It means I can unpack and spread out, but my space never looks cluttered throughout my stay. There are great dining options at Disney's Riviera Resort I often like to cook my own food to save money on Disney trips — it's cheaper than buying every meal at the parks or a hotel. However, the Riviera Resort has great dining options for a splurge meal. My favorite is Topolino's Terrace for Breakfast à la Art with Mickey & Friends. This character-dining experience is a delightful way to spend a morning. Mickey, Minnie, Donald, and Daisy make their way around the restaurant to take photos with guests as they munch on dishes like sour-cream waffles with roasted apples and French-toast bread pudding. Other dining options around the resort are Bar Riva, an excellent pool bar serving drinks and sizable lunch and dinner plates, and Primo Piatto, a quick-service restaurant dishing out everything from hot sandwiches and pizza to soups and salads. Plus, there's plenty to do on the property once the sun goes down During the day, I love spending time in the resort's pools. At night, I always find lots to do around the property. The resort hosts nightly movies on its lawn, where you can catch an animated Disney classic. I also love the free marshmallow roasts that happen each evening around a fire. When it's time for the Epcot fireworks, I head up to Topolino's Terrace for incredible viewing on the outdoor patio. About 30 minutes before the show begins, I like to grab a drink from the bar that I can enjoy outside— its old-fashioneds are incredible. This is the resort I always recommend to friends When friends ask me where to stay at Disney World, the Riviera Resort is always my first suggestion if they have extra room in their vacation budgets. Though a stay can be pricey, I still think the resort is a good pick for its easy access to two theme parks, ample dining options, exceptional amenities, and large rooms for bigger families. I've stayed here a handful of times and always enjoy my vacation. Even if the resort isn't in your budget, you should still try to get to Topolino's Terrace for breakfast.

King of the Hill: Here's everything to know about season 14's long-awaited comeback
By Aman Shukla Published on July 29, 2025, 17:30 IST Last updated July 29, 2025, 10:28 IST After 15 years, it's finally happening— King of the Hill is returning, and fans couldn't be more excited. Hank Hill and the gang are back in Arlen, Texas, bringing all the propane-fueled charm and dry humor we've missed. Whether you grew up with the show or just discovered it, Season 14 promises both a hefty dose of nostalgia and some timely, grown-up storytelling. When Does King of the Hill Season 14 Come Out? Mark your calendars: the new season drops on August 4, 2025, exclusively on Hulu in the U.S. All 10 episodes will be released at once, so go ahead and plan your binge. International viewers can catch the revival on Disney+ via the Hulu Hub. This marks the first new season since the original series wrapped back in 2010. Hulu gave the green light for the reboot in January 2023, and fans got a sneak peek—including an updated intro showing a grown-up Bobby Hill—during the ATX Television Festival in May 2025. Who's in the Cast? The new season brings back most of the original voice actors, with a few changes and new additions that reflect real-life losses and fresh storylines. Mike Judge returns as both Hank Hill and Boomhauer , keeping the heart of the show intact. Kathy Najimy is back as the ever-confident Peggy Hill , now adjusting to retired life. Pamela Adlon voices Bobby Hill , who's now 21 and chasing his dreams as a chef in Dallas. Stephen Root returns as the sweet but unlucky Bill Dauterive . Lauren Tom continues to voice both Connie and her mom Minh Souphanousinphone. Ashley Gardner reprises Nancy Gribble, Dale's wife and the town's news anchor. Before his passing in 2023, Johnny Hardwick recorded six episodes as the ever-paranoid Dale Gribble. For the rest, Toby Huss (formerly the voice of Kahn) steps in. Meanwhile, Ronny Chieng is now voicing Kahn, giving the fiery neighbor a fresh twist. We also meet some new faces: Keith David joins as Brian Robertson , a tenant renting out the Hill house while Hank and Peggy were away. Anthony 'Critic' Campos plays Emilio, a fellow chef working with Bobby. Sadly, Luanne and Lucky won't return, as both Brittany Murphy and Tom Petty passed away before the revival was announced. Their absence is handled respectfully, keeping their legacy intact. What's Season 14 About? The show picks up years after the original finale with a time jump. Hank and Peggy are now retired, having spent some time working in Saudi Arabia (yep, really). They return to an Arlen that feels a little different—more tech, new neighbors, and a culture that's evolved. Meanwhile, Bobby is no longer the goofy middle-schooler we knew. He's 21, living in Dallas, and working at a trendy 'German sushi robata' restaurant (try saying that three times fast). His career choice raises a few eyebrows—especially from Hank, who still believes propane is the future. The new season tackles some pretty relevant issues while staying true to the show's grounded tone: Cultural appropriation comes up as Bobby tries to learn about robata grilling and sourcing traditional charcoal. Surveillance and misinformation are explored through Dale's usual antics, including a wild trip to the Bush Presidential Library. Aging, health, and purpose weigh on Hank as he deals with doctor visits, tax troubles, and trying to stay useful in a fast-changing world. Family tension shows up when Peggy crashes at Bobby's apartment post-MRI, and Bobby struggles to reconnect with Connie as adults. And there's a mysterious twist involving a Souphanousinphone anniversary party that hides a secret only Hank knows. Episode titles like 'Return of the King' and 'Chore Money, Chore Problems' give a good idea of the tone: heartfelt, hilarious, and occasionally a little sad—in that classic King of the Hill way.

Disney Stock Slides Despite Box Office Win
Disney (NYSE:DIS) shares slipped nearly 1% Friday despite The Fantastic Four: First Steps pulling in $118 million domestically and $220 million worldwide this opening weekend, on track to top its $300 million budget. The film matched analysts' estimates but missed a $130 million best?case projection, yet it remains the best?performing Marvel movie of 2025 and the highest?grossing non?sequel in six years. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 7 Warning Sign with DIS. Disney stock dipped 0.9% even as the company has seen box office boosts from Lilo & Stitch's $1 billion haul, Captain America's $415 million run and Thunderbolts' $382 million take, offsetting 2025 flops like Snow White and Elio. Year?to?date DIS is still up 8.4% and has climbed 31.8% over the past 12 months, showing investor faith in its content pipeline. Why it matters: When a clear hit fails to lift the stock, it underscores how much investors are balancing theatrical wins against streaming performance, park attendance and broader cost pressures. Investors will be watching Disney's upcoming quarterly update and next weekend's film releases for signs that hits can translate into sustainable share gains.
