“Why do you think space travel is important?” a NASA bigwig asks Neil Armstrong during the biggest job interview of his life. It’s all about a change in perspective, the future astronaut replies—about finding a new way to see the world, and maybe everything else, too. First Man, Damien Chazelle’s grippingly…

It’s only been a couple episodes, but South Park seems pretty serious about tackling hot-button issues this season. The premiere was about becoming desensitized to school shootings and last week’s episode was about Catholic priests molesting children, and next the show is going to be addressing both the Brett…

Disney and Warner Bros. would probably never admit that their Marvel and DC superhero movies are direct competitors, since that’s not very professional and also one side is way better than the other, but Warner Bros. just fired a direct shot at Marvel Studios by hiring James Gunn to write Suicide Squad 2. That comes…

Dana Adam Shapiro’s new documentary film, Daughters of the Sexual Revolution: The Untold Story of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, tells the story of Suzanne Mitchell, a former Cowboys executive who effectively created the Dallas Cowboys cheer squad as we know it today. The film features testimonials from dozens of…

Over the weekend, we were all thrilled by the story of a Banksy art print that automatically shredded itself after being sold for over $1 million at an auction held by Sotheby’s in London, partly because it was a nice way to make some millionaire feel like a dummy (even if the shredded work is probably more valuable)…

If you’re unfamiliar with the name Tillie Walden because you stick to the cape-and-cowl side of the comic shop, you’re missing out on one of the most increasingly popular and well-regarded names in the comics industry. Now just 22 years old, Walden was one of the youngest-ever Eisner winners when she earned the…

Press tours must be exhausting. Every day, actors and directors sit down for interviews, are asked variations on the same handful of questions, and have to try to think of a novel answer each time. Though the millions of dollars most of these interview subjects make for their work is typically a pretty good…

Sure, A Star Is Born is sweet, sad, sweeping, and cathartic, but did you see that dang dog? That shaggy bundle is named Charlie and not only is he a very good actor, he also belongs to director/star Bradley Cooper. Charlie, Cooper revealed, is named after his late father, who passed away in 2011, if you felt like…

Twitter user @vinandwesson was a bit taken aback at his local Kmart when he spied a shopping cart of DiGiorno Frozen Pizzas near the kitchen of a Little Caesars inside the store. He posted the corresponding video, commenting, “this can’t be happening right on front of me.” Even Chrissy Teigen chimed in, tweeting the…

David Fincher makes heady, twisted dramas about very dark things, so we’re amped to see his long-in-the-works sequel to World War Z, despite being mostly lukewarm on the original. That is, of course, if it actually happens. There’s been numerous delays and, last we heard, Fincher had set it aside in favor of a second…

By the end, everything is in place for whatever finale fireworks are planned. Those will no doubt…

The podcasters: “We’re a little obsessed with each other.” Actors and longtime friends Yeardley Smith (The Simpsons) and Zibby Allen (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) hang on each other’s every word, a built-in feature of their kinship that lends itself impeccably well to their true-crime podcast, Small Town Dicks. Alongside…

Gabe Gundacker, the comedian and musician who crafted the nonsensical earworm “Zendaya Is Meechee,” wrote his Wii Sports-inspired album by accident. “I thought I was writing a new song,” he said over the phone. “It was really good, I was like ‘oh, this melody’s awesome.’ Then a day later I played it back and I was…

Making A Murderer became a massive phenomenon when first released in 2015, and the new 10-episode season looks to grapple with that fallout. Netflix released the first good look at it today, featuring news reports about the show’s popularity and massive press conferences detailing the continued fight to overturn…

Until now, Richard Linklater has been most celebrated for writing and directing films like Before Sunrise, Boyhood, Dazed And Confused, and Slacker. We only say “until now” because Linklater, with help from the Fire Ted Cruz PAC, recently proved he deserves just as much recognition for his skill at creating TV…

Taylor Swift sent the dregs of 4chan into an existential tizzy yesterday by revealing herself to not be a closet white nationalist. In an Instagram post, the traditionally apolitical pop star came out in support of democrats Phil Breseden and Jim Cooper, both of whom are running in Tennessee’s US Senate race. If…

Interviewing celebrities can be hard. The scripted answers. The pre-determined narratives. The sweaty hunt for those rare, elusive details.

In its first season, Lodge 49 has been the definition of a pleasant surprise, a warm drama that’s both agreeable and compelling, full of heady topics and seemingly low stakes.
