Disney Hath Slain the Live-Action Robin Hood

Back in 2020, Disney revealed plans for a remake of Robin Hood, similar to how they updated The Lion King – meaning it would rely heavily on computer-generated imagery. Kari Granlund, who penned the 2019 Lady and the Tramp remake, was slated to write the script, and the producer of the live-action Dumbo was also on board. However, after six years with no news about who would star in the film, it became clear the project wasn’t moving forward.

Seth MacFarlane Defends Controversial AI Bill Clinton Cameo in Ted Season 2

I was really surprised to learn it was Seth MacFarlane playing Bill Clinton in that scene! He’s done the voice of Clinton on Family Guy before, but this was the first time he actually played him on screen, in live-action. He recently explained that they ended up using AI to make the transformation work. Apparently, they tried doing it with practical effects and regular CGI first, but it just didn’t look believable, so AI was their final solution.

Post-Crash Purge: XRP’s 60% Valuation Reset Meets a Record Low in Exchange Liquidity

Enter CryptoQuant, a service that seems to have a strange obsession with on-chain data, which, in simple terms, is a fancy way of saying they monitor how crypto flows around like a nervous teenager at a high school dance.

The exchange reserve data tracks how coins move in and out of wallets and trading platforms, giving us mere mortals a glimpse into the madness of supply and demand.

Netflix Knows You Want to See Reacher Fight a Cybertruck

The upcoming 2026 Netflix film War Machine, starring Alan Ritchson, is generating a lot of excitement – it’s different from the 2017 film of the same name starring Brad Pitt. Judging by how many people are watching the trailer, there’s a huge audience eager to see Ritchson’s character, Reacher, battle a Transformer that often takes the form of a Cybertruck. This excitement is thanks to the popular Amazon series Reacher, which has made Ritchson a well-known actor. After the show’s third season featured Reacher facing a large and powerful opponent, giving him a formidable robotic enemy to fight feels like a natural next step.

Rotta the Hutt Has Abs Now

Rotta the Hutt’s visible abdominal muscles are surprising, given what we know about Hutt bodies. They seem like a mix of frogs and slugs, neither of which typically have well-defined muscles. For creatures that move like Hutts – essentially sliding along – strong back muscles would be more logical for supporting their upper bodies. So, while Rotta might have ‘six-pack’ abs, they’d likely be located on his back instead of his stomach.
