Losing Rob Reiner was a blow to the stomach that we’re still reeling from. The incredibly talented actor turned director gave us so many wonderful moments on film. It’s his former job as an actor, though, that is giving him one final chance to give us some laughs. More than that, it’s allowing him to take a final dig at Donald Trump from beyond the grave. To top it all off, he’s doing it as George Washington. Rob Reiner Laughs Last Prior to his untimely passing, Reiner had filmed a role for the Larry David series, Life, Larry, and the…

Over the last couple of weeks, rumors have been flying about what’s happening over at Xbox. Microsoft’s console division has been hurting something fierce. When news broke that the company was increasing Xbox prices again, it wasn’t a good sign. But the writing was on the wall even before that. The Xbox brand has been in a bad way for a while. At some point in time, something had to break. That happened today with the laying off of 3,200 people from Xbox. The CEO Speaks That number would be large for any corporation or division. For Xbox, it’s reportedly…

That didn’t go too well, did it? Supergirl not just bombed, it tanked. The opening weekend was a disappointment, and then the second week cratered with a 76% drop-off in sales. That’s the last thing that the DC Universe needed with its second film in the canon. What happened? How did it go so bad so quickly? Beyond that, what should be the takeaway for Warner Bros? Beyond that, what should the takeaway be for the film industry in general? For starters, Supergirl was not the right character at the right time for this universe. She has never really been…

Artificial intelligence is an affront to creative endeavors. Some people would disagree with that, referring to AI as a tool. We would argue that something that replaces something another human could do in a creative field is not a tool. This applies even more so when it comes to the concept of an AI actor. Enter Tilly Norwood, an AI creation that is going to be starring in the upcoming film, Misaligned. Don’t see it. What is Particle6? The movie is being produced by Particle6. According to their own website, “PARTICLE6 is an award-winning, AI-first production studio creating film, TV and…

Mosquitoes are often considered the most dangerous “animal” on Earth. They carry and transmit a multitude of horrible diseases. Malaria, EEE, and West Nile Virus are just a few of them. Rivaling them in terms of disease-ridden pests is the flea. The little bugs are well-known for spreading plague, but they also spread murine typhus, and it’s making a comeback thanks to cats. What is Typhus? There are different forms of typhus, with murine typhus being transmitted by fleas. It can be fatal, and even milder cases can still result in high fevers and delirium. It’s currently doing some damage…

The phrase, “you can’t keep a good man down,” certainly applies to Jesus Christ. That guy was dead, buried in a cave, sealed behind a boulder, and he still got back up. The same can be said about the movie he was in that Mel Gibson directed. The Passion of the Christ originally hit theaters in February of 2004. It did extremely well for itself commercially. Critics were heavily divided on it for various reasons, but do you think that’s going to stop Jesus? Or Mel Gibson? Nope! Christ is coming back, baby! And he’s doing it in new and…

Nobody in this world is a perfect individual, but “Weird” Al Yankovic may possibly be the best of humanity. Weird Al has provided the world with laughter and merriment for decades. He’s also, by all accounts, a damn nice guy. You’d be hard-pressed to find anyone to say a bad thing about the guy. Even Coolio’s beef with him ended with respect. Yes, Al may be weird, but he’s also pretty awesome. In fact, his awesomeness has improved even further in our eyes with his stance on Artificial Intelligence. Weird AI Is Not Down With Artificial Intelligence The singing accordionist…

Crisis averted everyone! We can all go back to our normal lives. We all remember where we were when the news first broke that Tom Hardy was “fired” from the set of Mobland. The Paramount+ drama features Hardy as a handler for a Mafia family. Joining him is Pierce Brosnan and Dame Helen Mirren. Things were looking bad there for a bit when rumors were flying that on-set hostility resulted in Hardy’s termination. Now everyone can rest easy because Hardy will return for the presumptive season 3. A Meeting with the Mob The second season of the series hasn’t even…

It looks like Grand Theft Auto VI was just the start of the avalanche of physical media news. Last week we reported that Rockstar Games would not be launching GTA VI with physical discs. We said the move was anti-consumer and takes ownership out of customer hands. Well, if we thought that was bad, we were not prepared for today. On July 1st, 2026, Sony’s PlayStation brand announced their plan to stop accepting physical discs in 2028. PlayStation Games Will Be Digital Only In the official PlayStation Blog post, Sony stated, “As consumer preferences and the broader entertainment industry continue…

This is not the first time we’ve had to report on something like this. The world of media ownership has been changing drastically in the last few years. While we’ve seen acquisitions and mergers like Skydance buying Paramount. And then going on to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD). Of course, WBD had its own story to tell in how they were desperately trying to split themselves up. Why? Because cable television is falling hard and fast, Warner Bros. wants to insulate its movie business from that catastrophe. Comcast seems to have similar goals in mind with its plan to separate…
