Did you know "Philadelphia" wasn't the original title of that Tom Hanks/Denzel Washington film? Also: Why the filming of "Creed II" seems different from other Rocky films, how Sharon sells our region to film producers, our favorite movies filmed in Philadelphia, the worst movie filmed in Philadelphia, if people will still go to theaters years from now, and whether the "Me Too" movement has hit its peak.
