In this instance, it’s Paramount Pictures rebooting “The Running Man,” with Edgar Wright set to direct. “But it wasn’t written by Steven King!,” you might say. Ho-ho, you’d be wrong.

It was adapted into a feature film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger in 1987, but this new version won’t be a reboot of that. According to the usual suspects, Wright will be co-writing the script with Michael Bacall,…

Our hats off to those soothsayers, those prognosticators of animation- “The Simpsons.” In yet another example of how the long-running cartoon series perfectly (kinda) predicted the future, the current Senator from Texas travel fiasco involving Ted Cruz almost perfectly lines up with a similar Mayor Quimby moment.Perhaps you’re aware of the current situation in Texas, where some residents are going on almost 72 hours with no power (and no water in other areas) following a storm of arctic temperatures. A complete collapse of the state’s power grid followed, and the blame was quickly assigned to various renewable energy alternatives (which…
