Telling someone the world has been taken over by aliens is tough enough. But imagine having to explain that the aliens are… eating people. For a job that awful, you need someone incredibly likable and unassuming – someone who can deliver terrible news with a gentle, reassuring presence. This person needs to be endlessly optimistic, deeply compassionate, and genuinely approachable – basically, a golden retriever in human form. Someone like John Cena.
Noah Baumbach almost didn’t have a career after a rocky start. His first two films, Kicking and Screaming and Mr. Jealousy, didn’t initially impress critics or audiences—though they’ve since gained recognition. He even released a small, low-key comedy called Highball under a different name. This led to eight years of creative struggle before he came back with The Squid and the Whale in 2005. While his early work showed promise and a love for classic comedies, it was The Squid and the Whale that truly defined his style. He began using personal, often difficult, experiences to create comedies that are both sharp and surprisingly tender.

During recent promotional appearances, Quentin Tarantino surprised fans by adding a previously unseen scene from Kill Bill to the video game Fortnite. He also shared some unusual thoughts on actors Paul Dano and Owen Wilson, and has been continuing to plan his tenth and final movie, a project he’s been working on for a long time. Additionally, he’s revisited an older concept for a Kill Bill spin-off, which he thinks would work well as a short, multi-episode series.
Okay, so everyone was buzzing about this creepy monolith shown during The Game Awards, thinking it had to be a hint for the next God of War game. But Cory Barlog, the creative director at Santa Monica Studio, quickly said that wasn’t the case!

Netflix presented the acquisition of Warner Bros. as a way to position themselves for long-term success in creating stories, constantly highlighting “growth” during the announcement.
