Commentary Commentary“Now this is especially hideous. There’s no possible reason that this shot is in the movie.”Multiple Maniacs (1970)

Commentator: John Waters (director, writer, producer, cinematographer, editor)

1. Frequent Criterion Films partner, Janus Films, has been a big part of Waters’ life, and he’s thrilled to be recording this track on the day this film was actually premiering in a Janus art theater. They “were the first ever to show [Ingmar] Bergman to me when I was in high school, I’d see art movies and it was always Janus Films. Criterion always was a class act with what kind of films they’d pick, so I’m incredibly honored that they’d pick to distribute this movie.”

2. “Is it ironic, or is it a natural ending to my career in the best kind of way,” he says regarding his arrival on the Criterion label. He adds the film is what he started with (it was...

Ok, this is a tough one pal. When I started posting here years ago, my idea was to create new roles for minority characters instead of rewriting their ethnicity. This seemed to work well for Vibe, and now Raptor, but aside from them; who else has benefited? (Please answer below.) In Marvel Comics; Ms. Marvel and Miss America have all been cast as minorities now. My hope has always been that the late great Dwayne McDuffie's work would bleed into DC and Marvel, and we would see characters like Static, Icon, and Hardware become a mainstay in our society. The Inhumans have introduced many new minorities, but I feel DC is lacking in this area.

So when Iron Fist was announced, a character that has always been blonde and white, there was a slight controversy that Iron Fist would be a white guy. As it turns out, an Asian-American...

Stars like Anna Kendrick have been trying to vision-board their way into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a tactic that Jane The Virgin’s Gina Rodriguez is also giving a shot. While on a SXSW panel with Doctor Strange scribe Jon Spaihts, Rodriguez let slip which Marvel superhero she’s dying to play, and it’s someone who probably isn’t on Marvel studio’s horizon right now. Rodriguez, who knows her comics, says she’s a huge fan of America Chavez, the second hero to carry the Miss America mantle, and tells Geeks Of Color she’d love to play her on screen.

Created in 2011 by Joe Casey and Nick Dragota, America Chavez is a queer Latina teen and superhero from the Utopian Parallel. The McU’s already pretty sprawling, so it could be tricky to work in an alternate dimension; then again, Thor and Hulk are jetting off ...

Live TV comes with certain risks, and Sunday’s Oscars snafu – in which “La La Land,” not “Moonlight,” was mistakenly named Best Picture at first – is a reminder of that. The occasional slip of the tongue or even pranks can lead a few buzzy, unpredictable moments, which may explain why live TV is experiencing a resurgence in popularity among TV programmers.

But there are times though when major snafus take over a live broadcast, causing embarrassment or controversy. It’s in those moments when the networks probably wished there was time for a do-over or edit.

Before highly anticipated new series such as Luke Cage launch this spring, Marvel has a few other titles kicking off, namely America. Focusing on America Chavez, this title is set to have writer Gabby Rivera (Juliet Takes a Breath) and artist Joe Quinones (Howard the Duck) at the helm, so those who love the current rising crop of young heroes developed by this publisher will definitely want to take notice.

Given the progress Chavez has made serving as the current iteration of Miss America, devoted readers will probably say it’s the right time for the character to be granted a headlining gig. And seeing as how she’s been aligned with groups such as A-Force (an all-female version of the Avengers) and, more recently, the Ultimates (a nod to an alternate universe’s version of, again,...

Golf.com’s 2017 edition of the Most Beautiful Women in Golf, which “shines a light on some of the game’s most dynamic personalities,” was released on Wednesday — and the latest roster boasts an impressive list of women associated with the sport.

From Tiger Woods‘ niece Cheyenne Woods to golf-obsessed Miss America 2015 Kira Kazantsev, the featured women are among the sport’s top athletes.

Read on to learn more about these rising stars — and visit Golf.com for a complete list and galleries:

Cheyenne Woods

Woods, 26, is much more than just Tiger Woods’ niece. The powerhouse athlete has two Lpga seasons under her belt.

Last year, Miss World Canada Anastasia Lin was blocked from boarding a plane to China to attend the Miss World finals due to her outspoken advocacy for human rights in the country.

This year, she is being allowed to compete, but she is being barred from speaking to any press, The New York Times reports. The paper explains that the competition is largely sponsored by Chinese companies, and Lin — who was born in China but has been living in Canada since she was 13 — has been an outspoken critic of Chinese human rights abuses.

The Times also reports that Lin, 26, who is also an actress,...

Marvel's answer to Aquaman (though he came later) is one of the company's oldest characters, so it's well past time for The Sub-Mariner to make it to the big screen. Have him pop up in Phase Four, maybe?

Miles Morales

While Peter Parker's notched up three different franchises in the last two decades, the successor of his Spider-Man mantle has yet to appear in live-action. Let's hope that changes soon.

Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan)

Kamala Khan Aka Ms. Marvel has gained legions of fans since she was created as the company's first Muslim superhero in 2014. A light-hearted ABC TV series would be perfect for the character, though we imagine it won't be happening in the near future.

Ooh, girl. Former beauty queen Suzette Charles isn't buying the apology that Vanessa Williams received during the Miss America 2016 pageant on Sunday, Sept. 13.

I have a feeling that was about ratings," Charles, 52, told Inside Edition on Monday.

Former Miss America Suzette Charles thinks that the apology Vanessa Williams received from the pageant on Sunday’s telecast was not exactly genuine. “I don’t know what that was all about. I have a feeling that was about ratings,” Charles told Inside Edition. “I think that as accomplished as she is, has worked so tirelessly for 32 years to build her career and to prove to America what she was always about, I’m not sure why she needed that apology.” Charles also said she believes that the apology may have been about more than just taking Williams title away.

Miss Honduras 2014, Maria Jose Alvarado, and her sister Sofia disappeared six days ago, and police believe they have found their bodies.

Sofia's boyfriend Plutarco Ruiz confessed to killing the siblings, Gen. Ramon Sabillon tells the Associated Press, and even led the Honduras National Police to bodies buried in a river bank around the mountainous terrain of Santa Barbara, 240 miles west of Tegucigalpa.

Though they are waiting for forensics to confirm the bodies are in fact Sofia, 23, and Maria Jose, 19, Sabillon says that the women discovered appear to have been shot to death.

Ruiz claims he killed the women after he saw his girlfriend dancing with another man. He told police that after an intense argument, he pulled out his pistol and fired it at Sofia first and then Maria Jose when she tried to flee the scene. Sabillion believes the beauty queen was shot three times in the back.
