Featuring Sarah Jessica Parker, Tom Sizemore, Dennis Farina, and Tom Atkins, Striking Distance is one of many films that attempted to capture the success of Die Hard. What sets it apart is that it stars the same actor who led Die Hard. While critics weren’t impressed, the movie has surprisingly become a popular choice for streaming viewers.
Charlie Sheen previously explained that he didn’t call Jon Cryer directly to be in the documentary because he didn’t have Cryer’s phone number. The director, Andrew F.

As a big fan of the Yellowstone universe, I was excited to see Luke Grimes back as Kayce Dutton in Marshals, the new CBS procedural. I’ll admit, the move from a drama to a crime procedural felt a little different, and I know some fans weren’t thrilled. But honestly, Marshals is a huge hit! It’s currently the most-watched show on TV, pulling in a massive 26.5 million viewers since it premiered on March 1st.
Even before they started working together, the early films each Coen brother made on his own hinted at their individual strengths. It’s been interesting to see them both succeed as individual filmmakers after decades of collaboration. Joel Coen’s next project, following his adaptation of The Tragedy of Macbeth, is planned for release in 2027, and Ethan Coen has already directed two fun, queer-themed crime comedies in 2024 and 2025.
Many anime series from the 1990s were created for a different way of watching than how fans enjoy them now. Back then, episodes were designed to be watched one per week, while today people often prefer to watch multiple episodes at once. Humor and storytelling were also different – jokes didn’t always land the same way, and stories tended to repeat themes more often than modern shows. This makes going back to ’90s anime both fascinating and challenging, as these classics can be harder to get into by today’s standards.
I was really touched reading Jake’s words about his parents. He talked about all the fun times they had – going to musicals with his mom and Dodgers games with his dad – but even with all those happy memories, he just misses them so much. He wrote that he’d give up everything – all those games, shows, vacations – just for one more hour to talk to them and say goodbye. It really struck me how he explained that unless you’re going through something like this with someone you love, it’s hard to understand how awful it is. He said it’s not something you can just move on from, or even forget for a moment, because it’s a pain he and Romy live with every single day.
