Lo scorso weekend a Wimbledon, durante le finali, ha attirato l'attenzione l'inaspettata presenza di Ali G, l'iconico personaggio di Sacha Baron Cohen, che sembra pronto a tornare in sala con un suo nuovo film. Intanto, è partito a Giffoni l'ormai tradizionale Film Festival dedicato al cinema per ragazzi (e non solo...). Tra le novità, è stato presentato "Oceania", la versione live action dell'omonimo film animato (noto in giro per il mondo con il titolo "Moana"). Cogliamo l'occasione per fare un viaggio tra i tanti (tantissimi!) cartoni animati che negli ultimi anni sono stati rifatti da attori in carne ed ossa. Warner Bros. ha pubblicato il trailer di "Digger": un Tom Cruise completamente trasformato interpreta l'anziano magnate del petrolio Digger Rockwell nel nuovo film di Alejandro G. Inarritu. Proprio in occasione dell'uscita del trailer, la rubrica "5 cose che non potete non sapere" è dedicata alla vita e alla carriera dell'attore. Infine, tra i film da non perdere al cinema c'è "L'Odissea" di Christopher Nolan, mentre tra le poche uscite della prossima settimana si segnalano "Deep Water", con Aaron Eckhart e Ben Kingsley e il francese "Terapia di famiglia" con Christian Clavier.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Luglio dovrebbe essere il mese in cui recuperare quello che si è lasciato indietro durante l'anno. E invece no: anche questo mese arrivano film, serie TV, documentari, franchise, remake, horror, comedy, animazione, post-apocalittico e varie follie che nessuno aveva chiesto davvero. In questa puntata di SPIN-OFF abbiamo guardato 77 uscite di luglio 2026, le abbiamo scremate e ne abbiamo selezionate 15 da tenere d'occhio, da recuperare con cautela o da evitare senza troppi sensi di colpa. I titoli più grossi del mese sono Spider-Man: Brand New Day e The Odyssey, il kolossal di Christopher Nolan. Da una parte il nuovo Spider-Man con Tom Holland, Zendaya, Jon Bernthal, Mark Ruffalo, Sadie Sink e Michael Mando; dall'altra l'Odissea secondo Nolan, con un cast talmente enorme da sembrare una nazionale brasiliana con due panchine. Ma luglio non è solo blockbuster: si parla anche di Silo 3, X-Men '97, Human Vapor, Rosebush Pruning, Evil Dead Burn / La casa - Il rogo del male, The Westies, Lucky con Anya Taylor-Joy, The Hawk con Will Ferrell, Supermarket, Deep Water, Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, Breaking Bear, The Dink e The Walking Dead: Dead City. Una puntata per capire cosa vedere a luglio 2026, cosa aspettare davvero, cosa potrebbe sorprendere e cosa invece sembra già un disastro annunciato.

It's Friday, July 3rd, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Ethiopian Christian convert from Islam attacked and forced to flee As a child in Gawo Kebe, Ethiopia, Taha Dinka faithfully attended the mosque and adhered to his community's Islamic beliefs. He never imagined his life would ever take a different direction, reports International Christian Concern. In 2019, Dinka heard the Gospel and decided to follow Jesus. He said, “When I accepted Christ, I felt peace in my life. I believed God had rescued me from darkness.”   However, the decision that brought him hope also opened the door for rejection, threats, and persecution. Soon after his conversion, Dinka began facing strong opposition from those closest to him because of his faith in Christ.    Dinka said, “People I loved turned against me, and some even told me I had betrayed my family and my religion. Others warned me that I would suffer or die if I continued following Christ.”   Christian converts from Islam in Muslim-majority areas often face violence and even death threats. In August 2025, Dinka said, “I was violently attacked and forcefully removed from my home because I had refused to renounce Christianity. The attacks left me injured and traumatized. I was beaten because I would not deny Jesus. At that moment, I realized my life was truly in danger.”  He was forced to flee in search of safety. In Matthew 10:22, Jesus said, "You will be hated by everyone because of Me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.” House Speaker Johnson puts SAVE Act in budget reconciliation bill Here in the United States, On Wednesday. House Speaker Mike Johnson said he is aiming to push the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, or SAVE America Act, through a third budget reconciliation bill, reports NewsNation. Johnson's remarks came shortly after President Trump canceled a signing ceremony for a sweeping bipartisan housing package, saying he will not sign the legislation until the Senate passes the voter ID bill. The SAVE America Act would require proof of citizenship to register to vote in federal elections and the presentation of an ID to cast a ballot. The bill passed the House, but has stalled in the Senate, where Democrats have vowed to oppose it, leaving it short of the votes needed to overcome a filibuster. Senate Republican Majority Leader John Thune of South Dakota has repeatedly dismissed Trump's calls to eliminate or reform the filibuster in order to pass the bill. Johnson talked to the president about adding the SAVE America Act to the National Defense Authorization Act or NDAA so that the entire bill including the funding of the troops and the SAVE America Act would only need a simple majority vote.  Here's Speaker Johnson at the Wednesday press conference. JOHNSON: “The SAVE America Act, as passed in February unanimously by all Republicans -- and that's components of the proof of citizenship to register to vote and voter ID when you show up to vote, that will be merged onto the [National Defense Authorization Act] and transmitted to the Senate as one bill. That's the most efficient, effective way to do it.” Call your two Senators at 202-224-3121 and urge them, whether they are Democrat or Republican, to support the National Defense Authorization Act which has the SAVE America Act added to it. Clarence Thomas: Birthright citizenship devalues what it means to be American citizen In a lengthy dissent, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas took the majority to task for interpreting the Constitution to mean that citizenship is automatically conferred on anyone born in the United States, regardless of the legal status of the parents, Thomas argued that the ruling “devalues” what it means to be an American citizen. In the 6-3 decision on June 30th, the majority held that an executive order President Donald Trump issued on the first day of his second term violated the Constitution. The order directed that only children born on American soil to legal residents are automatically citizens of the United States. The Fourteenth Amendment states, in part, “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” In his dissent, Thomas, joined by Justice Neil Gorsuch, noted as Trump previously argued, that the Fourteenth Amendment was passed in the immediate aftermath of the Civil War. It was in direct response to the Dred Scott v. Sandford Supreme Court decision of 1857, which held that blacks were not citizens. Thomas wrote, “Both the Civil Rights Act [of 1866] and the Citizenship Clause [of the Fourteenth Amendment] guaranteed citizenship to persons born and domiciled in the United States regardless of their race. Neither guaranteed citizenship to persons who were not domiciled in the United States.” He added, “Blacks were entitled to citizenship because they were Americans. They had no other homeland, owed no allegiance to any foreign power, and were subject to no other authority,” Under Trump's proposal, birthright citizenship would be limited to those with at least one parent who is a U.S. citizen or permanent resident. Babies born to temporary visitors or people who entered the country illegally would not be citizens at birth, reports NBC News. Young Washington movie in theaters tonight On the cusp of America's 250th birthday tomorrow, Angel Studios* and Wonder Project release the movie “Young Washington” nationwide tonight. Watch the trailer. It follows the early life of George Washington as he transforms from an ambitious, awkward youth into a military commander. Facing class barriers, he secures a job surveying the Ohio Valley, only to stumble into the bloody triggers of the French and Indian War. Directed by Jon Erwin, who also produced the House of David TV series, the historical drama explores Washington's steep climb into Virginia's upper crust. William Franklyn-Miller, the 22-year-old British actor, portrays George Washington, Ben Kingsley portrays Robert Dinwiddie, and Kelsey Grammer portrays Thomas Fairfax. When setbacks shake George's faith in a kind, loving God, he gets angry. He tells his mother, “Providence placed me here. Why? For me to fail?” Focus on the Family says that Mary Washington, George's mother, serves up one of the movie's best lines. She says, “Failure is the tutor sent by God. If you don't learn from it, you fail twice. If you do learn from it, you've earned wisdom.” After George improbably survives a disastrous battle, a Native American chief—one who fought alongside the French—demands to meet George. His own warriors had George in their sights repeatedly. He claims they “never miss.” And yet, somehow, George stands before him, uninjured. The Indian chief tells him, “The Creator chose you. You have been shielded by the Spirit.” (Get the booklet entitled The Bulletproof George Washington by David Barton) Shortly thereafter, George shows up in Virginia Lt. Gov. Robert Dinwiddie's office with a bullet hole in his hat and a well-earned reputation for surviving impossible situations. Listen to the scene from the “Young Washington” movie. DINWIDDIE: “What happened, Washington? All those bullet holes in your jacket? How are you alive?” WASHINGTON: “I don't know.” Proverbs 16:9 says, "A man's heart plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps". The movie, Young Washington, dramatizes the events leading up to the French and Indian War, including the war's initial bloody triggers. PluggedIn.com warns that the film is not suitable for young children because there's plenty of fighting, shooting and chopping. And while none of it is particularly bloody or gory, it may come as a shock for those expecting a gentler “Christian” film. *Note: Angel Studios is owned by the Mormons also known as the “Church” of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. The Worldview cautions our listeners to remember that Mormons teach a false gospel and an unbiblical worldview. So, please be discerning in the viewing of any Angel Studios productions. 15-year-old listener from Eswatini, Africa sounds off Yesterday, 21 Worldview listeners took the time to send me an email about what they enjoy about this newscast.

Eli McSeveney, a 15-year-old in Eswatini, Africa, bordered by South Africa and Mozambique, wrote me at Adam@TheWorldview.com. He said, “We listen to The Worldview in 5 Minutes every day, mid-morning, when we take a break from our homeschool over a cup of tea.  I love that I can trust the facts you give, unlike CNN. But my favorite part is right at the end, when you urge us to ‘Seize the day for Jesus Christ!' “Quinn, age 13, said, ‘I love how Mr. Adam McManus addresses the transgender issue.  He says a man, who is ‘pretending to be woman.'  And the regular updates on the persecution of Christians throughout the world is eye opening.' “And Bianca, my mom, said, ‘Thank you for your team's faithfulness in bringing us truth. We find that you help us make sense of the news, and we feel hopeful instead of distraught. And thank you for the Bible verses that shed light on how to interpret what is going on.'” 7 Worldview listeners gave $800 yesterday Yesterday, 7 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to ensure that The Worldview stays on the air for another 365 days.

Wow, it's July! We have a quick little episode to kick off the month and the second half of the year. Here's what we reviewed on the latest Breakfast All Day podcast: MINIONS & MONSTERS. The third Minion movie and the seventh film in the "Despicable Me" franchise is surprisingly hilarious, as those tiny, yellow chaos agents storm Hollywood and invent cinema as we know it. Lots of classic movie references for the adults in the audience and madcap hilarity for everyone, regardless of age. Allison Janney, Trey Parker, Christoph Waltz and Jesse Eisenberg are among the voice cast. In theaters everywhere now. YOUNG WASHINGTON. Before he was the first president of the United States, George Washington was a scrappy upstart with ambitions and mistakes to make. That's the point of this Angel Studios take on the founding father, set in 1755 Virginia. Starring William Franklyn-Miller, Kelsey Grammer, Ben Kingsley and Mary-Louise Parker. Coming soon to a middle school social studies classroom near you, but playing in theaters starting July 3. We'll be back on Friday with a review of "Enola Holmes 3," plus movie news. See you then, and thanks for sharing some of your summer with us. Subscribe to Christy's Saturday matinee newsletter: https://christylemire.beehiiv.com/

The Democratic Socialists of America appear to be in complete control of the Democratic Party in NYC, and they are not satisfied. This is only the beginning for them, and they are proud of it. The question is, what does this mean for the Democratic Party, and is it fair to now assume that the Democrats as a party are openly hostile to the United States?SPONSOR: Angel StudiosAngel Studios presents Young Washington, the untold origin story of George Washington at age 20, timed for America's 250th birthday and directed by Jon Erwin with Andy Serkis, Ben Kingsley, and Kelsey Grammer.

Pack your raincoat, surrender your sidearm, and whatever you do… don't go to the lighthouse. This week, 3 Guys and a Flick travel into Martin Scorsese's psychological thriller Shutter Island, where nothing is what it seems, everyone is hiding something, and Leonardo DiCaprio may or may not be the only sane person on the island. Don, Ken, and Jon break down the film's twisted plot, debate Leo's performance as Teddy Daniels, praise Ben Kingsley's eerie calm, and dig into the haunting visuals, unsettling needle-drop score, and all the clues hiding in plain sight. The Guys also explore the movie's big themes, identity, trauma, role-play treatment, conspiracy, and the gut-punch question at the center of the ending: does Andrew Laeddis choose sanity, or does Teddy Daniels choose escape? Plus, listener voicemails, trivia, final ratings, and enough paranoia to make you question whether this podcast is real or just part of an elaborate therapy session. So watch the cliffs and join us at Ashecliffe Hospital for the Criminally Insane as we review Shutter Island.

Un avion s'écrase dans le Pacifique. Les survivants émergent. Puis l'eau commence à bouger.Avec Deep Water, Renny Harlin replonge dans le territoire le plus simple, le plus honnête et le plus jouissif du cinéma de genre : celui du film de requins, du survival thriller et de la série B qui ne prétend pas réinventer le cinéma, mais juste vous coincer avec des survivants, des mâchoires et la promesse d'un très bon carnage aquatique.

Jay and Mark briefly discuss (with no spoilers) the 2026 survival film Deep Water. Directed by Renny Harlin, and starring Aaron Eckhart, Ben Kingsley, and a shark gang, the movie focuses on what happens when a plane crashes near a gang of hungry sharks. In this episode, they also talk about plane crash movies, pretty people, and Renny rankings. Enjoy!

Deep Water presenta como unos pasajeros abordo de un avión de Los Angeles a Shangai hace un aterrizaje forzoso en mar abierto con tiburones hambrientos. Estrena 1 de mayo en cines. Protagonizado por Aaron Eckhart, Ben Kingsley y Angus Sampson.

Gene Simmons (KISS, Deep Water) joins us this week for a wide ranging and surprisingly tender conversation about the mother who shaped him, the bandmate he wishes he had saved, and the work ethic that still has him producing films at 77. Gene opens up about his Hungarian mother surviving the concentration camps, the moment he tasted jam for the first time in America, and why he believes the race only speeds up as you near the finish line. We also get into the painful truth about Ace Frehley, the intervention that should have happened decades ago, his new film Deep Water with Ben Kingsley and Aaron Eckhart, and the night in Belize at 62 when he dropped to his knees and finally came clean to Shannon.

Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island is one of the most rewatchable psychological thrillers of the 2000s, and on this episode of How I Met Your Monster, we break down exactly why. Set in 1954 at Ashecliffe Hospital for the Criminally Insane, Shutter Island follows U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) as he investigates the disappearance of a patient from a remote island asylum and slowly loses his grip on what's real. It's a film built on clues hidden in plain sight, unreliable narration, and one of the most satisfying twist endings in modern horror and thriller cinema. We cover the film's five monster reveals, the symbolism of fire and water throughout the story, Scorsese's visual references to Gustav Klimt's "The Kiss," and the real history of trans-orbital lobotomies that gives the film's ending its gut-punch weight. We also dig into the film's place in the Scorsese/DiCaprio collaboration, how it compares to Inception (also released in 2010), and why Shutter Island deserves more awards recognition than it ever received. Other topics include the psychology of trauma and repressed memory, the history of mental health treatment in mid-century America, the true crime case of Andrea Yates, the literary legacy of Dennis Lehane (Mystic River, Gone Baby Gone), and how Scorsese uses classic filmmaking techniques — from Hitchcock-inspired direction to old-school rear projection — to build dread.

This week on the Marvelists spinoff Catholic Guilt, hosts Peter Melnick and Eddie Wilson kick things off with a little housekeeping: celebrating the official announcement that Wonder Man Season 2 is officially happening (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Ben Kingsley are coming back—yes, the bromance continues), geeking out over the brand-new Spider-Man: Brand New Day trailer that just dropped and is already breaking records, and sharing first impressions of the striking teaser poster for the upcoming Marvel Television Special Presentation The Punisher: One Last Kill (Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle returns May 12 on Disney+—get ready). Then it's time to dive headfirst into the Man Without Fear's long-awaited return. Peter and Eddie break down Daredevil: Born Again Season 2, Episode 1 – “The Northern Star,” where a hidden Matt Murdock takes the fight to the East River, infiltrating the cargo ship Northern Star to uncover and disrupt Wilson Fisk's illegal weapons smuggling operation. From the tense stealth action aboard the vessel and the dramatic sinking that strikes a blow against Fisk's regime, to the escalating political tensions in a post-martial-law Hell's Kitchen and the fresh moral dilemmas that hit extra hard for our Catholic-raised crew, they unpack the season premiere's high-stakes setup, Matt's ongoing internal struggle, and how the stakes feel even higher this time around. Expect plenty of Catholic guilt-fueled debates on justice versus power, classic Murdock self-flagellation, and the hosts wondering how Matt's faith (or lack thereof) is going to hold up against Fisk's authoritarian control and the shadows of his past. Plus, as always: spoilers, tangents, bad puns, and way too much enthusiasm for foggy New York rooftops and billy clubs. New episode of Catholic Guilt drops now—grab your rosary and your nightstick, folks. Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 is back in session.

Today Griffey and Dandino take a mental health break on Shutter Island. They discuss the film's big trick and how it plays throughout the movie, using movie star Leo to throw us off the scent, and the film's huge emotionally devestating finale. This is a bizarree blend of choices some refer to as lesser Scorsese. However on a return trip to the island you may find more to enjoy than you originally erased from your memory.  Synopsis: Two US marshals are sent to a mental institution on an inhospitable island in order to investigate the disappearance of a patient.

Sony didn't wait long to release the Spider-Man: Brand New Day trailer we've all been craving and oh, how it delivered! Unsurprisingly, the trailer now holds the record for the most-watched ever, garnering 718.6 million views in a 24-hour period. The new film shows Peter Parker banding together with familiar characters such as Bruce Banner and Frank Castle while he anonymously serves New York City as Spider-Man. Let's not delay - who wants to take a bite out of this big apple first?It's a three-for-one MCU week, with the announcement that a second season of Wonder Man is beginning production, and a title plus release date for the Punisher special presentation. All of the creatives behind Wonder Man are returning for the second season, including Destin Daniel Cretton as director and executive producer. Marvel announced the news with a social media post of the front of the script for the next season. Today, the film studio let us know that the Punisher tv special will be called “One Last Kill,” and is set to drop on May 12 the week after the finale of Daredevil: Born Again season two. So much here to bite off, what are we chewing on the most?Remember how all we can do is rave about Project Hail Mary? Well the box office agrees, as the Ryan Gosling-led film opened to $141 million globally last weekend, with $80.6 of that being domestic.

Marvel's new Disney+ series Wonder Man is a sensible buddy comedy where Yahya Abdul-Mateen II plays a down-on-his-luck actor (with incredible superpowers) trying to make it in Hollywood, and Ben Kingsley plays his new friend with a dark past.
