This week’s episode picks up with Alesia and Jason still talking. It’s revealed that Jason is hesitant to let Alesia go because they’re friends outside of the show. He also believes she wants to pursue a career as a chef and advises her to be patient and try to improve her work environment in the kitchen.

I’m so excited! For years, my favorite DC character wasn’t one of the big names like Batman or Superman – it was Lobo, the rough-around-the-edges, always-smoking bounty hunter. And now, thanks to James Gunn, he’s finally getting his own movie! It’s a huge deal for Lobo, and honestly, it feels like a fantastic start to the new DC Universe he’s building.

During an appearance on the Smartless Podcast, Hemsworth revealed that after Avengers: Doomsday, he and Marvel Studios already have plans for Thor in the MCU.

Sometimes, a truly terrible movie can be surprisingly enjoyable—even more so than a well-made one. There’s something captivating about a film that fails spectacularly, whether it’s due to a weak script, poor acting, or bad direction. These movies often gain a dedicated following over time and become famous, though usually not in the way their creators intended. They’re the perfect films to watch with friends, offering plenty of laughs as you playfully critique all the things that went wrong – often despite everyone’s best efforts.
