Zombie Plane has had it with these motherfucking zombies on this motherfucking plane, as production has wrapped on the indie action-horror-comedy.
Variety reports that Ice-t and Brian Austin Green have joined the cast, which is led by Vanilla Ice, Sophie Monk, and Chuck Norris as fictionalized versions of themselves.
In Zombie Plane, celebrities are seen by day as the faces we know and love, but by night they are saving the world from under-wraps attacks. Led by Commander Chuck Norris, they stand between world peace and humanities’ destruction.

Miley Cyrus has spent her whole career mutating and evolving, making drastic musical left turns. She went from Hannah Montana to the indie-sleaze neon orgy that was Bangerz, the ultimate “Disney kid breaks free” statement. But that turned out to be just one of the many Mileys we’d get to know — over the next decade, she moved on to the stoner prog-rock of her Flaming Lips project Dead Petz, to the rootsy country of Younger Now, to the Eighties electro power-glitz of Plastic Hearts.

Who the show was a vanity project for depended on which creator was being complained about at the time. But haters of the instantly despised pop star erotic thriller were practically universal in their assessment that the show was an ego stroke for star The Weeknd and/or series director Sam Levinson: both of whom took their lashings over the course of the show’s five-episode run.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventuretends to be merciful to its cast of characters, with the Joestar heroes knocking out enemy Stand users without actually killing them in most cases. Most of the Joestar heroes and their best JoBro allies tend to survive as well, which allows most story arcs to end on a reasonably positive note. Still, even this wacky anime is willing to kill off some of its characters to create an emotional impact and raise the tension now and then.
Some of the deaths in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure felt like they were well-deserved, such as the gruesome demises of characters like Dio the vampire, Yoshikage Kira, and Diavolo, along with a few of their various minions or allies. Other deaths in JoJo's, however, are a heartbreaking affair that shonen anime fans won't soon forget.

For over 40 years, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has been one of the most dominant brands in pop culture. With seven feature films, countless TV shows, and a sewer full of merchandise, the “Heroes in a Half-Shell” have served justice in radical fashion. There have been many iterations of the Turtles, but arguably its most iconic was when the franchise made the leap to live-action in the early 1990s. Now Mondo is honoring that era with a new villainous figure fit for the Foot Clan.
A part of Mondo's Soft Vinyl Figure line, their latest 12.35-inch piece is Super Shredder. This is updated version of the big bad, who first made his debut in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze. The menacing figure comes with a green fireball, a Tgri mutagen ooze canister, a turtle and bladed mace. Super Shredder was designed by artists Aaron Conley, Alex Brewer,...

With the exception of one solitary journalist, pretty much everyone in the world seems to like Martin Short. In addition to the fact that he’s made us laugh in classic shows like Sctv, and iconic movies such as Three Amigos, he also seems to be a genuinely nice guy. Jiminy Glick, on the other hand, is a giant asshole.
Short recently guested on Amy Poehler’s new podcast Good Hang and attempted to explain his rotund alter-ego’s casual meanness, which surprises even him sometimes. After all, not every interviewer would be so cruel as to introduce Ice Cube as “Vanilla Ice.”
“The thing that was weird for me doing Jiminy Glick was that, because it was improvised, I would say things that even shocked me afterwards,” Short explained.
One example of an unexpected improv going south involved Edie Falco, of Nurse Jackie and The Sopranos fame. “I remember interviewing Edie Falco,...

The JoJo's Bizarre Adventure anime is constantly being referenced. There's a game to be made in pointing out the JoJo reference in anything and everything. It is also a hard anime to really discuss with people who haven't watched it, as the content can be more than a little bizarre. There's a lot going on in the series with a lot to tackle when it comes to even scratching the surface in order to give a summary.

The last few months have provided Batman fans with news about The Batman Part 2. After a series of delays, the film was expected to premiere in October of 2026 but it was ultimately pushed to 2027, meaning that it will be over five years after the release of the first film that its sequel arrives in theaters. Star Robert Pattinson jokes that he’d retire after the trilogy ended because he’d be too old as it is taking unexpectedly long for the second installment to make its big-screen debut. After the most recent news, that could become a possibility.
But fans of the Matt Reeves franchise have been entertained with spinoff TV series The Penguin, which has again earned the franchise critical acclaim as it bridged the gap between the 2022 film and the upcoming sequel. Speaking of the sequel, star Robert Pattinson recently spoke to Deadline about when production is expected to begin.

There’s a scene in Questlove and co-director Oz Rodriguez’s “Ladies and Gentlemen… 50 Years of SNL Music” (which airs January 27 on NBC) that has, as far as we know, the only cultural intersection of Eddie Murphy and John Belushi appearing on screen together. Ever. It’s 1981 and former cast member John Belushi pulled some strings to get the punk rock band Fear booked as musical guests on Halloween alongside host Donald Pleasance. Much has been made about Fear’s controversial performance over the years. And, in reality, the massive wave of destruction to hit 30 Rock that night wasn’t much more than a few kids slam dancing on the stage. Two of those “kids” being Belushi — who is in full slam dancing mode and is hard to spot, but we know he’s there – and another being Murphy, who climbs up on the back of the stage mostly...

Warning! This article contains spoilers for Secret Level episode 10.
Secret Level episode 10 focuses on the story of Mega Man and his battle with Dr. Wily's robotic minions. The many video game franchises in Prime Video's Secret Level were chosen for several reasons. Not only was their iconicity a role in choosing which video games should receive animated short films but so too was the potential for a new, intriguing take on the source material. Secret Level episode 6's Pac-Man story, for example, offered a distinct, intensely different iteration of the maze-centric game. Admittedly, these differing perspectives may be the reason for Secret Level's middling Rotten Tomatoes score.
However, if any episode of the Prime Video anthology series is set to appease fans of the original games, it is Secret Level episode 10. By the time of Secret Level episode 10's ending, the origin story of the iconic video game character Mega Man is explored.

Few anime and manga have been so integrated into LGBTQ+ culture as JoJos Bizarre Adventure. The physical and emotional intimacy characters have with other characters of the same sex often far exceeds any other anime or manga, and with how much detail is usually put into making everyone look as attractive as possible, the series has been a major part of animes LGBTQ+ fandom for almost its entire 37-year history.
If theres any character who best embodies the LGBTQ+ elements of JoJos Bizarre Adventure, though, its undoubtedly JoJo's Bizarre Adventures most recurring villain, Dio. DIOs outfits, interactions with allies and enemies, and general demeanor have always made him come across as queer-coded, but like with most JoJo characters, it never went further than fan theories.

Often, pop stars who leaped to the big screen have mixed results. While some stars manage to headline seminal classics like Prince's Purple Rain, others, like Vanilla Ice's Cool As Ice, become infamous flops forever ripped apart in online memes. In most cases, the star's input behind the scenes gets deferred to screenwriters and directors to create a traditional narrative inspired by their life story. However, when Michael Jackson released Moonwalker in 1988, the King of Pop gave fans a glimpse of how his genius mind works.

The last time audiences saw Tony Stark/Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) in the climax of Anthony and Joe Russo's 2019 film "Avengers: Endgame," he used the six all-powerful Infinity Stones to murder thousands of battlefield assailants. The Stones, however, were so lousy with cosmic energy that they ultimately destroyed his body, leaving him another casualty of the Infinity War. Since that movie, Iron Man has been referenced in a number of Marvel Cinematic Universe films, most notably the "Spider-Man: Homecoming" sequel "Far From Home," wherein Peter Parker longed for Tony's advice and mentorship.
Indeed, the death of Tony was so dramatic that the head honchos of the MCU have been wise to leave it alone. True, death is typically temporary in comic books, but it was tasteful to allow Tony to remain dead. Of course, the same honchos are now working around the death of Tony Stark by casting...

The 25th anniversary of Deep Blue Sea is generally not seen as a significant cultural event. In the grand context of a world spinning wildly off its axis, finding time to remember that movie where scientists use shark brains to cure Alzheimer’s can be difficult.
Yet Deep Blue Sea deserves to be remembered. Not for the events of the film itself—though it is, remarkably, still one of the best shark movies ever made—but rather for the incredible original rap song that plays over its end credits, “Deepest Bluest (Shark’s Fin).” In that rousing ballad, rapper and Deep Blue Sea co-star LL Cool J delivers what could best be described as a shark’s diss track to the rest of the world sung from the shark’s perspective.

That said, while Reynolds’ character is the ultimate mutant who just can’t keep his profane mouth shut, it was none other than Jackman’s Logan who managed to make this impossible task possible. And this he did by saying the coldest thing he could to Wade that hurt his feelings so badly that even fans can’t help but admit just how heartbreakingly cooked the Merc with a Mouth got here.

X2: X-Men United was released in 2003 to glowing reviews and, in a recent interview, Nightcrawler actor Alan Cumming described it as "the gayest film that I've ever done."
The actor would go on to praise the fact it was directed by a queer director and starred other queer actors, saying the franchise "[helped] people understand queerness, because you can address it in an artistic way, and everyone is less scared of the concept."
It's no secret that filmmaker Bryan Singer set out to use the X-Men as a means of highlighting bigotry (and the experience of coming out), and writer David Hayter has now shared his enthusiasm for Cumming's take on the iconic team.
"I was thrilled when I heard that Alan Cumming had called X2 the gayest film that he had ever worked on," he told TMZ. "Yeah, it made me really happy. I was so glad that we had done right by him.

Crime Boss: Rockay City was a title that didn’t fare well with fans and critics when it first launched. There were not many things that a game did well. From its sloppy voice acting and animations to one-dimensional heists, it felt underwhelming and lukewarm.
However, it seems like the folks at Ingame Studios haven’t given up on the game and have consistently pushed updates for it in the last 12 months. The game recently came out on Steam, and it feels like it is finally in a state that fans appreciate.
