Minority Mindset

On the November 17th episode of Late Night, Seth Meyers responded to recent comments made by the president about his show. Meyers explained that a few weeks prior, President Trump had complained about Meyers repeatedly joking about electric catapults on aircraft carriers. Trump shared these new comments on his social media platform, Truth Social, on November 15th, and the topic was still catapults.

I recently finished reading Project Hail Mary before the movie adaptation comes out, and I was really curious about how they’d bring Andy Weir’s story to the screen. My biggest question was how the main character, Ryland Grace (played by Ryan Gosling), would communicate with the alien he meets, Rocky. Now that the official trailer for the 2026 movie is out, I think we have our answer!

As a huge movie fan, I’ve been following Zack Snyder’s Instagram lately, and he’s been sharing a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff from his time working on the DC movies. It’s got me wondering – like Cosmic Book News pointed out – could he be hinting at a possible return to his vision for the DC Universe, and is Saudi Arabia somehow involved in making that happen?

Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, along with the rest of the cast of Wicked: For Good, are about to record some incredibly famous songs from the second act of the Broadway show, and these recordings will likely become the definitive versions for fans. It’s a big deal because there’s a wealth of existing interpretations to draw from – over two decades of different actors playing Elphaba and Glinda, all documented online. There’s even a dedicated fanbase that can identify each Elphaba by voice alone! Knowing the cast are Wicked fans themselves, they’re aware their choices will be intensely scrutinized and debated. So, what should we pay attention to when we finally hear these new recordings? Let’s break it down.

I’m so excited about the Streamer Awards! It’s awesome to see how streamers are building communities, whether they’re mastering new games, having real-life adventures, or just making really unique content. The awards are a great way to celebrate all the amazing creators, and it’s cool that fans get to vote! Honestly, though, it feels like we already know who’s going to win in a few categories – some people are just that popular!

The upcoming film, Project Hail Mary, is based on Andy Weir’s 2021 science fiction novel. It follows astronaut Ryland Grace, who wakes up with no memory while on a critical mission to prevent the extinction of humanity. Ryan Gosling will star, and the film will be directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, who previously worked together on movies like The Lego Movie and 21 Jump Street.
