Wednesday November  25th  –  Creed :  Adonis Johnson (Michael B. Jordan) never knew his famous father, boxing champion Apollo Creed, who died before Adonis was born.

Rocky sees much of Apollo in Adonis, and agrees to mentor him, even as he battles an opponent deadlier than any in the ring. With Rocky’s help, Adonis soon gets a title shot, but whether he has the true heart of a fighter remains to be seen. Looking for a  reason to get out the  house Wednesday Night or  after BlackFriday  shopping ,  Creed is  the answer to that  problem.
