At the end of September, JoBlo Media and Octane Multimedia teamed up to launch a new YouTube channel named JoBlo TV, which hosts multiple feature films to watch for free throughout the week. The genres we’ll be focusing on at JoBlo TV are Action, Horror, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Thrillers – and the free movies we shared this week were packed with an action, along with a bit of drama and even a touch of the supernatural.

The movies were The City of Gold, Terra Nova, and The Rebels. Here’s some information on each of them:

An action adventure movie with a bit of the supernatural dropped in, The City of Gold was directed by Harry Locke IV from a script by Ronald A. Blum. Here’s the synopsis: An anguished media magnate, Jonathan Davenport, accompanies his estranged lover to the Peruvian Amazon in pursuit of a reclusive artist living in rebel occupation.

"Elemental introduces Pixar's first non-binary character, Lake, in a visually spectacular and emotionally charged journey." "The rom-com narrative of Ember and Wade, along with light humor, contributes to the streaming success of Elemental." "Pixar continues to make progress in LGBTQ+ representation, with Elemental featuring its first non-binary character and previous films including lesbian couples and characters."

Somewhere between the romantic developments of Ember and Wade, Pixar's Elemental also introduces the studio's first non-binary character, Lake — here's everything we know about them. Inspired by a true story, Elemental takes viewers on a visually spectacular and emotionally charged journey that dabbles with themes surrounding immigration, familial ties, and even class divides. Although the movie was not as highly acclaimed and commercially successful as most other Pixar films following its release, it found its success after landing on Disney+, garnering over 26 million views.

Many factors contributed to Elemental's massive streaming success. One...

With colorful vinyl variants, Nicki Minaj singles, and record-store listening parties, the star-studded soundtrack Barbie the Album has become as much of a cultural phenomenon as the Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling-starring film itself. Produced by Mark Ronson, Barbie the Album shines on its own as a fun sonic reimagining of the Barbie storyline with a hint of nostalgia, featuring some of the biggest acts in music.

Like in the film’s opening sequence, Lizzo’s vocals on the silly opener “Pink” immerse the listener into the world of...

Created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar with episodes directed by Tim Burton, James Marshall and Gandja Morteiro, “Wednesday” on Netflix contains all kinds of creepy and not so creepy music, with contributions by Chris Bacon and themes by Danny Elfman. But it’s also packed with popular songs.

From classic guitar-shred anthems like The Rolling Stones’ “Paint It, Black” to Metallica’s “Nothing Else Matters,” to more modern pop songs like Dua Lipa’s “Physical,” the “Wednesday” soundtrack is eclectic to say the least. Certain sonic touches take place with the help of Wednesday’s cello, which she plays fiercely. She also has a phonograph in her room on which she plays scratchy and staticky records.

Wednesday’s latina roots are also honored with songs like “La Llorona,” “Tierra Rica” and more, with some haunting operas sprinkled throughout.
