According to StarWars.com, Hudson’s new game studio, Arcanaut Studios, launched this year after his previous studio shut down in November 2024.

Just in time for the holidays, the pair opened a festive package containing a puck announcing “Season Two.” The presentation was simple and charmingly low-budget, focusing on the stars’ genuine excitement rather than flashy trailers or graphics. Storrie’s delighted expression was especially noticeable – a rare sight considering Rozanov rarely shows much emotion! The new season will be based on Rachel Reid’s sequel, The Long Game. Williams jokingly warned it would be “hotter, wetter, longer,” leading fans to wonder if he’s involved in the writing process – because those are some great ideas!
The comedy Bottoms is a wild and over-the-top romantic comedy packed with both sexual content and violence, alongside the film’s unique brand of humor – everything from long, rambling speeches to slapstick physical gags. The movie features a strong cast, including Nicholas Galitzine and a surprisingly funny performance by Marshawn Lynch. But if you enjoy Bottoms and are looking for something similar to watch afterward, there are plenty of great TV shows to choose from.
As a huge movie fan, I’ve been following the drama with Netflix and Paramount battling it out over Warner Bros., but honestly, Disney seems to be smartly sitting this one out and just focusing on what they do best. And it’s clearly working! I just read that their latest film has officially crossed the $1 billion mark at the box office. That makes Disney the studio with the most billion-dollar movies right now, with two hits under their belt – this one and the live-action Lilo & Stitch remake. Pretty impressive, if you ask me!
Garlinghouse, ever the eloquent provocateur, declared that Ripple is “willing to operate under the same strict rules as traditional financial institutions.” A bold claim, considering said institutions have spent decades perfecting the art of rule-breaking. He also took aim at banking lobbyists, who, in their infinite wisdom, seem terrified of crypto companies adhering to regulations. “What are you so afraid of?” he quipped-a question that could just as easily apply to their ability to spell “innovation.” 🤷♂️
As a big fan of Rockstar Games, I’ve been following the news about the recent layoffs, and it’s gotten pretty complicated. The company, through its parent Take-Two, claimed they fired over 30 people due to “gross misconduct.” Apparently, Rockstar said the reason was that these employees were talking about details of future, unreleased games online. But the Independent Workers of Great Britain (IWGB) union is pushing back on that explanation, saying Rockstar’s version of events isn’t accurate. It’s frustrating as a fan to see this kind of stuff happening and not have a clear picture of what’s going on.
The discussion about celebrities with famous parents – often called ‘nepo babies’ – has been ongoing for a while, with many stars weighing in. Meg Ryan has talked about her son Jack Quaid’s achievements, and Allison Williams admitted the advantages that come with having family connections in the industry. Amanda Seyfried has defended those with famous parents, while Dakota Johnson dismissed the whole conversation as pointless. Now, Kate Winslet has also shared her perspective on the topic.
Captain America: Civil War created a major conflict within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, putting almost all of its heroes against each other – with the exception of Hulk and Thor. While the movie started with discussions about what was right and wrong, it ultimately led to a spectacular fight between many of Marvel’s biggest stars. Audiences didn’t want to see the Avengers hurt each other, but they still naturally took sides. The film presented it as a complex issue with no clear answer, pitting Iron Man and Captain America as leaders of opposing teams. However, looking back, the situation isn’t as morally ambiguous as it seemed at the time.
