We see a lot of deals around the web over on Kinja Deals, but these were our ten favorites today.

MoviePass has always seemed like it’s too good to be true, partly because paying the flat rate to see as many movies as you want is a surprisingly good deal and partly because the companies that make movies and run theaters absolutely hate it, but a Variety report suggests that MoviePass might not have much time left…

Writer Dylan Marron is probably best known for his appearances on Welcome To Night Vale and for creating Every Single Word, a video series that compiles the lines spoken by people of color in Hollywood films. His most recent project, Conversations With People Who Hate Me, which recently returned after a long hiatus,…

Watch This offers movie recommendations inspired by new releases or premieres, or occasionally our own inscrutable whims. This week: The recent (and very strange) Jeannette: The Childhood Of Joan Of Arc has us tapping our toes to other rock musicals, rock operas, and rock-driven movies.

Amy Schumer plays yet another shallow New Yorker with self-esteem issues in I Feel Pretty, but it seems that with each starring role, the characters become more pitiful and the life lessons more corny. Here, the stand-up and TV sketch comedian is cast as Renee Bennett, a low-level employee at a world-famous luxury…

Over the last week, Kanye West has come roaring back into the public eye, first with an announcement that he’s writing a philosophy book called Break The Simulation that partly involves the weird artificiality of taking photographs and then with some proper brain-blowing tweets about how “some people have to work…

Ajit Pai, America’s 12th-best Bernie Madoff cosplayer, has been busy during his time as chair of the Federal Communications Commission. Whether it’s mocking the public he’s been appointed to serve or just talking down to his fellow commission members, Pai has made his blithely hypocritical stances no secret.

Bruno Sammartino, one of the biggest stars in professional wrestling history, has died. No specific cause of death has been provided, but according to CBS’ Pittsburgh affiliate, Sammartino had been battling “health issues” for the last two months and passed away with his wife and two sons by his side. He was 82.

There is one Riverdale mystery that continues to confound us, but it doesn’t have anything to do with violent crime, or clandestine love affairs. How big is Riverdale, exactly? Because on one hand, it often functions like a very small town—there’s only one restaurant, one high school (Southside High was shut down),…

This summer marks the 20th anniversary of seminal hip-hop album The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill, and Lauryn Hill is marking the occasion with a special anniversary tour dedicated to the album. Hill will be performing Miseducation in full, and each stop on the tour will feature “special guest performers” that haven’t…

There’s something nostalgic about sitting down in a dim movie theater, a striped cup of soda in your hand and a giant bucket of buttery popcorn between your legs. The red velvet curtains part and the projector beams its scratchy, old-timey countdown as your belly prepares not just for those delicious kernels, but also…

Remember in 2016 when everybody was saying, “Can’t wait for this year to be over!” and then 2017 came and everybody was like, “Oh no, it can get worse?” Well, it seems the plan for 2018 is to press the pedal to the metal in the ol’ apocalypse machine and get this thing over with because, as reported by Motherboard,…

A lot has changed in the nearly quarter of a century since Dumb and Dumber’s 1994 release. Jim Carrey, for instance, has studiously worked at erasing years of unshakeable goodwill with a never-ending self-serious phase that runs from goofy political protest paintings to the aimless philosophizing that fills his…

RBG, the new documentary from filmmakers Betsy West and Julie Cohen, is aiming to be the definitive work on the life of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. To do that, it uses interviews with Ginsburg, people who know her, and people who have been inspired by her to chronicle how she went from the daughter of…

What, you thought we meant Leia? No, we mean the longest and truest love of Han Solo’s life, the girl he loved and lost and loved again—the Millennium Falcon. In the dynamic new TV spot for Solo: A Star Wars Story, Lando Calrissian (Donald Glover, stealing the show already) introduces Han Solo (Alden Ehrenreich) and…

That charming little rascal Harry Styles ended the European leg of his tour by issuing a gracious thank-you to his opening act, Mabel McVey. Because he’s such a delightful imp, the Irish Sun reports, his gratitude took the form of a cream pie and some silly string. Hijinks!

Breweries love their pop-culture puns, and generally their small-batch, hoppy homages to TV shows or movies or bands exist in the world unchecked. So it’s a notable aberration that Sony this week announced a lawsuit against Auburn, California’s Knee Deep Brewing over its Breaking Bud IPA. The Hollywood Reporter says…

Now that [REDACTED] is out of the picture, Stranger Things is replenishing its stunt-casting coffers with two new Hawkins residents, as Variety reports. First, there’s British actor Cary Elwes, a.k.a. the dashing Westley from ‘80s slumber-party classic The Princess Bride. Elwes has been cast as the mayor of Hawkins, …

There’s a good chance you have at least seen Sesame Street Muppets if you have lived in America in the past 40 years. Big Bird, Elmo, Cookie Monster, and the rest of the gang are among the most beloved characters of television, and luckily, that isn’t lost on the people who work on the show. We spoke with producers…

Dark Horse has been telling stories within the universe of the Alien films for decades, but the property has had a major upswing in the last year after handing the reins to singular writer/artists with a distinct vision for this concept. James Stokoe’s Aliens: Dead Orbit (now available in a collected edition) was a…

All these late-night Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives marathons on the Food Network have become much more fun now that you’ve got to be lame as hell or alt-right to hate someone as harmless as Guy Fieri. No longer must we look over our shoulders in fear as Fieri describes yet another bowl of “funky little joints” as…

Lovable lunkhead Vin Diesel has seized the means of action-movie production, announcing in a press release yesterday evening that he and his One Race Films have partnered with American-Chinese film company H Collective to buy the rights to his xXx franchise, where he is the biggest, baddest, and baldest dude on set…

Score discounts on pressure washers, OLED TVs, Timbuk2 bags, and the rest of today’s best deals.

Earlier this year, UK blues-rock act Gomez announced that it would be reissuing Bring It On, the band’s Mercury Music Prize-winning record first released in 1998.
