Where to watch the 2024 Paris Olympics Closing Ceremony

After two weeks of competition, it's time to say goodbye to the 2024 Paris Olympics. These Olympic Games have provided dramatic moments, sensational athletic accomplishments, and nail-biting finishes. One of the major takeaways from these Olympics will be the return to form for Simone Biles. The U.S. gymnast finished her 2024 Olympics with four medals: three gold and one silver.

In the pool, Katie Ledecky became the most decorated female U.S. Olympian of all time. Ledecky won four medals, including two gold, which brings her total to 14. Luckily for her fans, Ledecky plans to keep swimming in future competitions. But the impending Closing Ceremony means the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics countdown has begun.

If you have to watch one Hulu movie in August 2024, stream this one
Taylor Kitsch in John Carter.

For many Hulu subscribers, the top choice this month is going to be the recently-arrived box-office hit Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. And that is a fantastic follow-up to the three Planet of the Apes reboot films that came before it. But since that movie doesn't need any help finding a wider audience, our choice for the one Hulu movie that you have to watch in August 2024 is Disney's adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs' John Carter.

Burroughs, who is best-known as the creator of Tarzan, innovated many of the aspects we associate with sci-fi in 1912 when he serialized his first John Carter story, A Princess of Mars. Although there were 10 other novels in the series written by Burroughs himself, the John Carter film takes its influence from this tale. Disney wasn't the first studio to take a crack at the story, but it was the first big-budget attempt... and it failed to make an impact at the box office.
