As the new owner of Mint Mobile and a European football club, Ryan Reynolds is a busy man. He’s Deadpool, Detective Pikachu, a Free Guy, and that’s on top of being a dad. Does this guy even have a clue what’s going on? The “Clue” we’re referring to of course is the long-rumored remake of the cult classic. The original 1985 film starred an ensemble cast of comedic acting heavyweights. Where does the project stand now? Well, there’s some good bad news on that one. Let’s start with the good news first. A script is done! Screenwriters Rhett Reese and…

Few celebrities know as much about trying to bounce back from their own demons quite like Robert Downey Jr.. The rise, fall, and rise again of the “Iron Man” star is so well-known, it’s partly what made his portrayal of Tony Stark so perfect. RDJr’s past behavior, drug addictions, and run-ins with the law were a reliable source of celebrity news fodder throughout the 90s and early 2000s, costing him acting jobs and landing him behind bars. [If you haven’t seen David Letterman’s “My Next Guest” episode with RDJr, it’s on Netflix, and we HIGHLY suggest it.] Whether it was…
If you’re going to be doing something in public or for the public, learn to read the room. Take note of the crowd’s attitude, and ensure they’re staying with you. For example, making jokes during a eulogy might be a bad idea, unless the family and supporters wanted to remember a loved one with laughter.. One Florida amusement park seems to not understand this philosophy, because they’ve adding a target shooting game involving actual places in Orlando. ICON Park near Orlando, Florida has already been in the news this year for tragic reasons. 14-year old Tyre Sampson died after falling…
Barney may be a dinosaur from our imaginations, but this live-action movie is very much real. Yes, in case you forgot, that purple dinosaur that delighted children and significantly irritated parents from the late 80s to 2010 was slated for a live-action movie a few years ago. Even though talk about it hasn’t been in the headlines since then, he hasn’t gone away. He still loves you, and Oscar winner Daniel Kaluuya is still hard at work at making the movie happen. Though he’s been acting since far before 2017, that was the year he was featured as Chris in…
Sometimes, criminal cases involving celebrities take turns a screenwriter could not or would not dare to come up with. Such is the ongoing case with singer Ricky Martin, and a restraining order that was filed against him earlier this month. Please note before you read any further, this story does involve allegations of both domestic abuse and sexual acts between family members. So if this is too much (we do not blame you if it is), you may want to stop reading now. A restraining order was filed against Ricky Martin on July 2nd, 2022 in Puerto Rico. According to…
There have been many classic rivalries in the history of film and television. Freddy vs Jason, Predator vs Alien, “Designing Women” vs “The Golden Girls;” you get the idea. Legendary director Joe Dante may have just started his own blood feud of cuteness between a galaxy far, far away and an iconic 80s film. Is it possible Baby Yoda (real name redacted) is a blatant rip-off of everyone’s favorite “Gremlins” star Gizmo? One of the major selling points for “The Mandalorian” was the reveal in the first episode of Baby Yoda. While we’d later come to find out his real…
Several shows could compete for the title of the best kept secret on television, but one of the chief contenders is certainly “Documentary Now!.” Airing on IFC, this mockumentary series features a who’s who of late 2000’s and 2010’s SNL talent. Created by Seth Meyers, Fred Armisen, Bill Hader, and “Saturday Night Live” director Rhys Thomas it’s also executively produced by them along with SNL head, Lorne Michaels. Meyers, Armisen, and Hader are also responsible for writing much of the series along with frequent collaborator, John Mulaney. The series has frequently relied on guest star talent in order to give…
The sea lion, mother nature’s way of telling you that it’s perfectly natural to be fat, happy, and roll around in the sand all day. These generally passive creatures can weigh around 600 pounds, are fairly intelligent, and in general are pretty adorable. But, they ARE 600 pounds. And have teeth. So as adorable as they might be, maybe it’s not a good idea to get one angry. How dangerous could an angry sea lion be? Well a bunch of beach goers at La Jolla Cove didn’t wait to find out. A witness at the scene noticed a woman approaching…
Ever heard of shiny Pokémon? In the series of video games, there has always been a remote chance that if you encounter a Pokémon it will be a shiny variant. A shiny Eevee may be a light gray color instead of its typical brown. The odds of this happening? Depending on the game, roughly 1/4096. Now imagine this happening in real life with a lobster. The odds of that being closer to 1/30,000,000. Anyone who’s walked by a lobster tank can attest that these aquatic crawlers are generally brown and speckled, sometimes with green, red, and a little blue too.…
Controversial casting decisions are a dime a dozen, but sometimes one comes along that really makes you stop and say, “…wait what?” While we’ve perhaps grown more used to that happening in television and film, this news serves as a reminder it happens on stages, too. Evidence of this reared its head recently when the already struggling Broadway revival of “Funny Girl” lost their lead actress Beanie Feldstein (“Booksmart,” “Impeachment: American Crime Story”) months before her planned departure. That itself was cause for concern. But then the production decided to replace her with former “Spring Awakening” star Lea Michele. The…
