‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ Deserved an Oscar Nomination on the Recent Shortlist

by

Generally, Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) films haven’t been major players at the Oscars, with Black Panther being a notable exception. It’s often said that big budgets are meant to support quality, and The Fantastic Four: First Steps seemed poised to finally earn some recognition. While it wasn’t expected to win major awards like Best Picture or acting accolades, the film was technically impressive. However, it surprisingly received no nominations in categories where it deserved consideration, particularly for its score. Meanwhile, despite receiving negative reviews, Captain America: Brave New World is surprisingly in contention for an award.

SoFi’s New Stablecoin: The Financial Revolution (or Just a Really Expensive Joke?) 🤔💰

by

SoFi Technologies, that buzzing digital financial service provider-who started by helping students dodge debt-has now stepped into the era of digital tokens. The new SoFi Stablecoin (SOFI) is pegged one-to-one with good old U.S. dollars stored safely in a reserve, just in case the crypto craze gets too wild. Only time will tell if Uncle Sam is ready to embrace this new, shiny way to move money faster than a horse-drawn carriage. 🚀🐎

This new development has sparked a lot of disagreement. The Oscars are a Hollywood institution with a rich history, so changes to the show usually face resistance. People are especially unhappy with decisions that seem to diminish the event, like presenting some awards before the live broadcast or shortening musical numbers and highlight reels.

by

I’m so excited about the Drakengard 3 Original Soundtrack! It’s got over 30 amazing tracks composed by MONACA. Just a heads-up, the tracklist is a little different if you get the digital version versus the CD. I grabbed mine on Steam for $12.78. If you’re in Australia, you can listen on Apple Music or Spotify right now, but everyone else should be able to find it around midnight on December 19th!

It’s a Sin Not to Stare at Josh O’Connor’s Neck Tattoo in Wake Up Dead Man

by

The tattoo peeks out from under his collar, almost playfully. What exactly is it? A flower, some letters, or maybe even a picture of Jesus? It’s not the design itself that’s important, but what it implies about Father Jud Duplenticy. It hints at a rough past he’s trying to escape, youthful errors he’s attempting to make up for by helping others, and a body that was once strong and athletic. Okay, maybe I’m getting carried away thinking about that last part during work hours! Still, the tattoo—it’s a small detail, but it brings this character to life, giving him depth and a hidden history.

Tom Cruise Is Trying to Dig Up a Competitive Oscar

by

I was so excited to see the first glimpse of Tom Cruise’s new movie! The teaser showed him looking… different, almost like he had prosthetics, posing with a shovel and wearing cowboy boots. The text then revealed his character’s name: Digger. It all played out with a cool Gorillaz song in the background. The movie’s being billed as a huge comedy, and honestly, the cast is incredible! Not only is Tom Cruise starring as Digger Rockwell, but they’ve also got Jesse Plemons, Sandra Hüller, and Riz Ahmed – all amazing actors who’ve been nominated for Oscars before. And the supporting cast? Seriously impressive – Michael Stuhlbarg, Sophie Wilde, Emma D’Arcy, and even the legendary John Goodman! I can’t wait to see what this is all about.
