Robert Downey Jr. started his speech by describing Gwyneth Paltrow as someone with contrasting qualities. He jokingly said she’s incredibly smart, but often seems lost when it comes to the details of the Marvel movies and characters.

After more than fifty years of telling Star Trek stories, it’s natural that not every attempt would succeed. Star Trek has famously tried out many different pilot episodes over the years, each one aiming for something new and original. As you’d expect, some of these pilots didn’t quite work out, while others became beloved and iconic parts of the series.

Following a series of individual superhero movies, viewers began to realize Marvel was building towards a large team-up film, similar to the comic books. While the first X-Men movie featured a team, the huge success of The Avengers truly opened the door for more ensemble films within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, like Guardians of the Galaxy and, more recently, Thunderbolts. The MCU expanded beyond single-hero stories, incorporating crossovers in movies such as Spider-Man: Homecoming and Thor: Ragnarök to create more exciting events. However, not all planned team-up movies have been made; one in particular, if completed, would have significantly changed the direction of the franchise before Marvel canceled it ten years ago.

Venita, who helped with the party preparations, arrived as Medusa, wearing a sparkly green dress and a small cobra crown. However, her costume didn’t quite capture the intimidating look of the mythical Gorgon – she wasn’t turning anyone to stone! It also made people wonder about Medusa’s lower half being reptilian, as she looked more like Cleopatra with a snake-themed hat. Then Salley arrived, spelling her name with an extra ‘E’, dressed as a gunslinging woman reminiscent of Westworld, but she clarified she was actually Kissin’ Kate Barlow from Holes. Since Shep and I weren’t familiar with the book – it came out when we were 24 – it went over our heads. Salley also seemed to forget the party had a literary theme, later shouting, “It was a book first!” This sparked a funny conversation where she asked Shep if he knew “holes,” to which he replied he did, though he joked about being unable to find something else with a lot of effort.

Nott is first seen in the opening episode of The Mighty Nein as a sassy goblin with a problem with alcohol. But as the story unfolds, it becomes clear that her drinking is a symptom of a much bigger issue, which has been explored both in the show and the original campaign materials.

Everyone knows what this challenge is – it’s a familiar one from recent seasons. Contestants are strapped to wobbly platforms and have to carefully move pieces back and forth. This time, the pieces spin instead of rock, but that’s the only difference. Jeff is pretending it’s something completely new, even though millions of viewers have seen it before. He’s asking if they’ll rush and risk falling, or go slowly and wait for others to mess up. It’s like going to your favorite restaurant only to find they changed the tablecloths, and the host acts like it’s a totally different place! The restaurant, the food, and the staff are all the same. It’s not new at all.

Steve Cropper was born in Dora, Missouri, in 1941, and moved to Memphis with his family when he was nine years old. It was there he first heard Black church music. His career began with a band he formed called the Mar-Keys, named after the sign outside the future Stax Records headquarters. In 1962, he joined Booker T. & the MG’s, the house band for Stax Records. Cropper co-wrote several hit songs, including “Green Onions,” Otis Redding’s “(Sittin’ on) The Dock of the Bay,” and “Knock on Wood.” He left Stax in 1970 due to disagreements with management, as reported by Variety. Even after Cropper’s departure, the MG’s continued to perform, backing prominent artists such as Bob Dylan, John Fogerty, and Neil Young.

Disney+ is planning to release ten big shows in 2026, featuring content from popular franchises like Marvel and Star Wars. This comes after a strong 2025 lineup that included the first season of Daredevil: Born Again and the third volume of Star Wars: Visions.

Comedian Jimmy Carr teamed up with his brother Patrick (who produced the screenplay) to create Fackham Hall. The film is packed with jokes and references, to the point where it almost feels overwhelming, but it builds to a thrilling climax. The story centers around Fackham Hall, an estate similar to Downton Abbey – though the name sounds a bit like a swear word when said with a Cockney accent. The Davenport family has lived there for 400 years, but they’re facing ruin after Lord and Lady Davenport’s four sons all died in separate, unusual accidents: one on the Titanic, one on the Hindenburg, one in a golf accident, and another from, well, excessive self-indulgence.
