Rob Reiner played Albert Schnur, a business consultant with experience helping all kinds of businesses, from large corporations to small laundromats, in three episodes of The Bear. Ebra Gibson asks Albert to mentor him as he tries to improve The Bear’s sandwich window. After reviewing Ebra’s financial information, Albert advises expanding by opening two more dedicated beef sandwich shops in the north and south suburbs of Chicago, and building a central kitchen to support them. He offers to oversee this expansion, jokingly comparing his role to Tom Hagen, the advisor in The Godfather.

The next James Bond film is facing significant delays. Not only has a new actor to replace Daniel Craig not been chosen yet, but director Denis Villeneuve is currently busy with the Dune movies. This is causing a long wait for fans, and many are starting to look at other spy films to fill the void – perhaps it’s time they explored other options.

While George Clooney appears happy slowing down his career, his new life in France might inspire him to work with French filmmakers. It would be amazing to see him in a film directed by someone like Claire Denis, though that’s likely just a dream. On the bright side, France’s strict privacy laws mean we probably won’t see intrusive paparazzi photos of him at his vineyard, which is probably a good thing, even if it’s a little disappointing.

I just watched the teaser for the new Avengers: Doomsday movie, and it’s really interesting! It looks like they aren’t undoing anything from Love & Thunder – actually, it seems like they’re building on it. But honestly, the little bit we saw confirmed that two of my biggest issues with the last Thor film are going to be addressed in the next Avengers movie, which comes out in 2026. I’m really excited about that!

If you’re a fan of artists like Morgan Wallen, this is definitely one to watch!

Primal stands out from most adult animated shows. While many rely on jokes about themselves, quick wit, or social commentary, Primal focuses on pure, visual storytelling. After two popular seasons and a significant wait, the critically acclaimed series is coming back for a third season, much to the delight of its fans.

It’s not a shock that Zootopia 2 is doing so well, given the first Zootopia movie earned a billion dollars worldwide. While most people likely only saw the original film once or twice in theaters, one dedicated fan has seen Zootopia 2 an amazing 50 times! Jared Bush, the director of Zootopia 2 and Chief Creative Officer at Disney Animation, was so touched by this support that he shared a special behind-the-scenes clip as a thank you.

I just finished watching this new miniseries that Netflix dropped all at once on December 26th – all eight episodes were available immediately! It’s been a huge hit, quickly climbing to number three on Netflix’s global charts. It even briefly made it into the Top 10 here in the U.S. as we headed into the new year, according to FlixPatrol.

Long-term relationships are having a moment – a decade has passed since Stranger Things first captivated audiences, and it’s also roughly the length of a notable hockey rivalry.
