The Naked Gun is a 2025 American action crime comedy film directed by Akiva Schaffer and written by Schaffer, Dan Gregor and Doug Mand. The fourth film in The Naked Gun franchise, it stars Liam Neeson in the main role, with Pamela Anderson, Paul Walter Hauser, Danny Huston, CCH Pounder, and Kevin Durand starring in supporting roles. It follows the son of Lt. Frank Drebin who must succeed in his father's footsteps to prevent the closure of Police Squad.A fourth The Naked Gun film was originally announced in 2009, as a direct-to-TV sequel starring Leslie Nielsen. However, the film languished several years of development, including being redeveloped as a reboot starring Ed Helms in 2013. It was later officially announced in January 2021 that Seth MacFarlane had been hired to develop the project, and he expressed interest in casting Neeson in the main role. Although MacFarlane was hired to direct, Schaffer replaced him after the film was greenlit in October 2022, and Neeson was officially cast in the main role. Anderson was cast in April 2024, and further casting took place the following month. Filming began in Atlanta that month and wrapped in June.The Naked Gun premiered at the SVA Theater in Manhattan on July 28, 2025, and was released in the United States and United Kingdom by Paramount Pictures on August 1, 2025. The film received positive reviews from critics and has grossed $28.3 million worldwide against a $42 million budget.

The AMPire Diaries Episode 118: The Vampire Diaries - “The Downward Spiral” In the immortal, loud words of Max Blum: “HERE WE GO!” We know all you AMPies have missed hours-long episodes full of tangents and segues, so we decided to record one for old times sake. (And because we had plenty of technical difficulties, thankfully rectified by the magic of EDITING.) That's because your favorite Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and still mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast is discussing The Vampire Diaries' “The Downward Spiral” (Season 6, Episode 16). Which means we're talking: - The lyrical content of 3LW's musical oeuvre. - “SARAH'S LIFE IS IN DANGER.” - Director (Mr.) Ian and the nature of CINEMA. - Stefan Salvatore forcing us to be ANTI-sexpionage. - Liam Davis: our favorite TVD character. - Kai's residual Luke-ness, which is perhaps the best this show has ever used Luke. - More little boy Damo. - More talk of Jill on the Other Side. - Is Matt still part of Enzo's plan, or...? (And in case you forgot, STEFAN Salvatore is actually part of the Sarah Salvatore story.) - Morgan going full speed ahead on BonKai and Kai as “Damon 2.0.” - “Enzo Hates… Twilight.” - Caroline Forbes' Bronze dancing. - By the way: Shout out to Eliza Dushku. Girl, we miss you. - The same things we literally always talk about when we talk about Smallville. - Y'all remember Luke's gay herbs? - NEVER listen to the Salvatore boys. - LaToya talks about another WB ship BESIDES Angel/Cordelia (But don't worry: She DOES talk about Angel/Cordelia too.) - Our old buddy, “Colin Phelps.” - Only two prison worlds, huh? Sounds nice. - Elena's forgetfulness. - Glenn Howerton's CCH Pounder impression, a bit that will make more sense when we drop the full bonus clip on the Patreon. - Plus, LaToya's mom (MOTHER) and dog (DAHLIA) both make guest appearances on the pod… sort of. “IAN SOMERHALDER MAKES HIS DIRECTORIAL DEBUT.” (“The Downward Spiral”) Whether you're a Vampire Diaries obsessive or newcomer, join along with hosts LaToya Ferguson (@lafergs—AMPie Queen, Vampire Diaries obsessive) and Morgan Lutich (@LorganMutich—AMPie Queen, Vampire Diaries obsessive) on their continuing podcast journey.* Most importantly, get AMPED (and horny) along with them on this journey.

While Bill is on a research and writing sabbatical for the next 5 weeks we decided it's important to revisit the horrors we laid out in our Project 2025 podcast series, Trump's Project 2025: Up Close and Personal – and tie them to what's actually happened so far. In Chapter 3, the fact-based fictional story of Dr. Yvette Hardman and JJ Newsom depicts the dismantling of expertise and science-based decision making in the federal government under a second Trump administration guided by Project 2025. Dr. Hardman, an experienced infectious disease expert, is removed from her position at the CDC and replaced by JJ Newsom, an unqualified political loyalist with no relevant experience. This reflects Project 2025's plan to fill government positions with partisan appointees rather than nonpartisan experts. The new administration, in this fictional account and now in real life, rejects science-based pandemic response recommendations from Dr. Hardman instead prioritizing political and economic considerations over public health. This aligns with Project 2025's directives to limit the CDC's ability to make public health recommendations. The story highlights the Trump administration's hostility towards science and the displacement of experienced civil servants. Overall, the narrative illustrates how a second Trump term guided by Project 2025 would undermine the role of expertise and independent scientific advice in government, with potentially disastrous consequences for public health and safety.We'd like to thank all the artists who volunteered their time to make this episode: CCH Pounder, Richard Schiff and Jason Kravits who read the chapters and Omid Abtahi, Laurie Burke and Joanne Carducci who did the voices. Sound design by Marilys Ernst and Jonathan Moser.

Demon Knight is a 1995 supernatural horror film that serves as the first feature-length movie based on the popular HBO anthology series Tales from the Crypt. Directed by Ernest R. Dickerson and co-produced by Universal Pictures, the film combines elements of horror, action, and dark humor, remaining true to the series' macabre tone. Plot Summary The story follows a mysterious drifter named Brayker (played by William Sadler) who possesses a powerful artifact: a key-shaped relic filled with the blood of Christ. This key is the last of seven mystical keys that can unlock cosmic chaos if it falls into the wrong hands. Brayker seeks refuge in a rundown boarding house in a remote desert town, where he is pursued by the sinister Collector (played by Billy Zane), a demonic entity determined to claim the key. As the Collector lays siege to the boarding house, he tempts the occupants with promises of their deepest desires, trying to corrupt their souls. Brayker and the residents must work together to resist his temptations and survive the night. Key Cast • Billy Zane as The Collector: A charismatic and malevolent demon. • William Sadler as Brayker: A mysterious guardian of the key. • Jada Pinkett (now Jada Pinkett Smith) as Jeryline: A tough young woman who becomes a central figure in the fight against evil. • Thomas Haden Church as Roach: A selfish resident who makes a deal with the Collector. • CCH Pounder as Irene: The no-nonsense owner of the boarding house. Themes and Style The film blends horror with a heavy dose of dark humor, a hallmark of Tales from the Crypt. It explores themes of temptation, redemption, and the fight between good and evil. The practical effects, creature design, and gore are highlights, making it a cult favorite among horror fans. Reception Upon release, Demon Knight received mixed reviews. Critics praised Billy Zane's over-the-top performance and the film's fun, campy tone but criticized its thin plot and reliance on genre clichés. Over the years, it has gained a cult following for its unique blend of horror and comedy. Legacy Demon Knight was followed by another Tales from the Crypt movie, Bordello of Blood (1996), though the sequel was less well-received. Despite its flaws, Demon Knight is often celebrated as a quintessential 1990s horror flick and a standout entry in the Tales from the Cryptfranchise.
This special series is a joint production by David Pepper and Resolute Square. The book, “Trump's Project 2025: Up Close And Personal” by David Pepper, is available for purchase at https://a.co/d/adWcJ4S. To start, special guest host Stuart Stevens weighs in on day one of the confirmation hearings and the abomination that is the slate of nominees Trump has put forward for some of the most important positions in the Executive Branch. In Chapter 3, the fact-based fictional story of Dr. Yvette Hardman and JJ Newsom depicts the dismantling of expertise and science-based decision making in the federal government under a possible second Trump administration guided by Project 2025. Dr. Hardman, an experienced infectious disease expert, is removed from her position at the CDC and replaced by JJ Newsom, an unqualified political loyalist with no relevant experience. This reflects Project 2025's plan to fill government positions with partisan appointees rather than nonpartisan experts. The new administration rejects science-based pandemic response recommendations from Dr. Hardman instead prioritizing political and economic considerations over public health. This aligns with Project 2025's directives to limit the CDC's ability to make public health recommendations. The story highlights the Trump administration's hostility towards science and the displacement of experienced civil servants, which Project 2025 seeks to accelerate through measures like the "Schedule F" executive order to reclassify and fire federal employees. Overall, the narrative illustrates how a second Trump term guided by Project 2025 would undermine the role of expertise and independent scientific advice in government, with potentially disastrous consequences for public health and safety. Trump's Project 2025: Up Close and Personal is available on all the podcast apps and at 2025pod.com. We'd also like to thank all the artists who volunteered their time to make this episode: CCH Pounder, Richard Schiff and Jason Kravits who read the chapters and Omid Abtahi, Tom Nichols, Laurie Burke and Joanne Carducci who did the voices. Sound design by Marilys Ernst and Jon Moser. Trump's Project 2025: Up Close and Personal was written by David Pepper and produced by Pepper, Melissa Jo Peltier and Jay Feldman and is a production of Ovington Avenue Productions and The Bill Press Pod.

As the Patreon request month continues, Tread Perilously ventures into Warehouse 13 for the first time with an episode called "Duped." With Myka still mad at Artie for what happened with MacPherson, she and Pete are ordered to help with the inventory. It leads to a suspicious mirror and a haunted Studio 54 disco ball. But after Myka stares too deeply into the mirror, she is called away to Las Vegas to handle a couple with surprisingly good luck. Will the artifact in their possession prove useful to the entity that escaped the mirror inside Myka? Will Artie accept that Myka is, in fact, stuck in the mirror? Erik and Justin immediately award star Saul Rubinek MVP status. Justin also can't help but compare the series to The Librarians. Erik recalls the Sci-Fi Network as it was when Warehouse 13 was first produced. While in the weeds, they discuss Wolverine, season 12 Simpsons, CCH Pounder's ability to sell absurd dialogue, The Gifted, and Batman rogues Rubinek could play. Constant re-casting suggestions occur for the Warehouse 13 cast. Despite only appearing in a recap, Roger Rees gets some praise. Justin pitches a story around the disco ball and the comparisons to The X-Files and Fringe become inevitable.
Eric's Perspective : A podcast series on African American art
In this episode, Eric sits down with pioneering video artist, performing artist and painter Anthony Ramos. They discuss his background - being raised in Providence, Rhode Island and tracing his ancestor's journey to America from Cape Verde. How he discovered his love for making art at a young age and how his mother and father encouraged his interests. How he cultivated his artistic abilities. How he began his studies as a Political Science Major… to converting to art — studying painting at Southern Illinois University, where he was a graduate assistant to Allan Kaprow and eventually received an M.F.A. from CalArts. Having a video studio in New York. A conscientious objector of the Vietnam war… being jailed for draft evasion… and how all of these experiences have shaped his life. The artists that have inspired him and the many exciting adventures he has had - while traveling widely in Europe, Africa, China and the Middle East during the 1970s and 1980s. Documenting the end of Portugal's colonial rule in Cape Verde and Guinea-Bissau. They discuss how his work has evolved through the years… being known as “The Grandfather Video" — to his passion for painting which is now his primary medium. Why he left the United States to now — living in the South of France and the exciting projects he has in store..! Guest Bio: Performance and media artist Anthony Ramos was among the earliest video artists to use the medium as a tool for mass media critiques and cultural documentation, and to examine media presentations of "truth." In his powerful but rarely seen video works of the 1970s, Ramos sought to combine art and activism, giving agency to marginalized individuals and communities. In his earliest black-and-white video pieces, Ramos engaged in forceful, direct performances for the camera, often using physical endurance and actions to confront political issues.Ramos has traveled widely in Europe, Africa, China and the Middle East. He videotaped the end of Portugal's colonial rule of Cape Verde and Guinea-Bissau, Teheran during the 1980 hostage crisis, and Beijing just prior to the Tiananmen Square massacre. Ramos produced a number of video works that critique the media through deconstruction and appropriation, and explore the relation of mass cultural imagery, African-American identity, and the politics of race in America. In the late 1980s he turned to painting as his primary medium.Ramos was born in 1944 in Providence, Rhode Island. He received an M.F.A. from the California Institute of the Arts, where he was assistant to Allan Kaprow. Among his awards are a National Endowment for the Arts Visual Arts Fellowship and a Rockefeller Foundation Fellowship. In the 1970s Ramos was a video consultant for the United Nations and the National Council of Churches. In the 1980s, he lived in Paris where he was a Professor at the American Center, and oversaw the television cabling of ten blocks of Paris for the first time. He has also taught at Rhode Island School of Design, New York University, and the University of California at San Diego. Ramos lives in Eyguieres, France.For more on Eric's Perspective, visit www.ericsperspective.com#ERICSPERSPECTIVE #AFRICANAMERICAN #ARTSUBSCRIBE: http://bit.ly/2vVJkDnConnect with us ONLINE: Visit Eric's Perspective website: https://bit.ly/2ZQ41x1Facebook: https://bit.ly/3jq5fXPInstagram: https://bit.ly/39jFZxGX: https://bit.ly/2OMTikTok: https://bit.ly/4cv8zfg

The story highlights the Trump administration's hostility towards science and the displacement of experienced civil servants, which Project 2025 seeks to accelerate through measures like the "Schedule F" executive order to reclassify and fire federal employees. Overall, the narrative illustrates how a second Trump term guided by Project 2025 would undermine the role of expertise and independent scientific advice in government, with potentially disastrous consequences for public health and safety.

In Chapter 3, the fact-based fictional story of Dr. Yvette Hardman and JJ Newsom depicts the dismantling of expertise and science-based decision making in the federal government under a possible second Trump administration guided by Project 2025. Dr. Hardman, an experienced infectious disease expert, is removed from her position at the CDC and replaced by JJ Newsom, an unqualified political loyalist with no relevant experience. This reflects Project 2025's plan to fill government positions with partisan appointees rather than nonpartisan experts.

Kidnapping, murder, dubious legal work, and the continual highlighting of the gay community and those who love them as dangerous monsters is really only table setting for what are two of the most egregious miscarriages of justice we've ever seen on film.

Director: George C. Wolfe Writers: Julian Breece, Dustin Lance Black Starring: Colman Domingo, Chris Rock, Glynn Turman, Amel Ameen, Gus Halper, Johnny Ramey, CCH Pounder Runtime: 1 Hour 46 Minutes Synopsis: Activist Bayard Rustin faces racism and homophobia as he helps change the course of Civil Rights history by orchestrating the 1963 March on Washington. If there's one thing to take away from Rustin it's that Colman Domingo was the perfect casting choice to play Civil Rights activist Bayard Rustin. For all the flaws of the movie and script (and there are many), Domingo is not one of them. If anything, his performance only serves to be a reminder of how frustrating this movie is. To have a performance like the one that Domingo puts in and then have a script that is uneven and wastes the talents of not only the lead but many of the other outstanding performers in the film is just a cardinal sin of film making. The biggest problem with Rustin is that there is a fundamental identity crisis in terms of what the focus of this movie should be. Should it be more of a biopic of Bayard Rustin or should it be more about the overall Civil Rights movement, specifically how the March on Washington came about? One can feel the struggle for this film to find its purpose and the worst part is, by not picking an identity, it fails to provide enough substance on either front. Rustin falls into the same trap that a lot of films about Black Civil Rights icons fall into in that it provides a safe, watered down, white-critic friendly view of a subject that is not safe, is complex and in reality should make an audience feel uncomfortable. Every time it seems that Rustin is about to go into a subject that might be a bit more edgy, the film rushes by it in order to get to the next scene. It's as if this film is on rails and does not want the audience to stray too far from the approved movie narrative. This not only does Colman Domingo a disservice but also great performers like Glynn Turman and CCH Pounder who do the best with the script they were given but could have done so much more. It also does a disservice to the real life heroes they are portraying. Rustin is worth checking out for Domingo's performance. But its flaws also make it easily forgettable. Listen as Kriss & Ro talk about Rustin and what worked/didn't work for them. Watch Rustin on Netflix on November 3rd.

Timothy Olyphant has been a regular presence on various TV shows every single year dating back to Damages in 2009, before the original Justified. And yet, it feels significant that he's in no less than three new series this year. The Nose already covered the first, Daisy Jones & the Six. This week, we catch up with the other two: Full Circle is a Max Original limited series written and created by Ed Solomon and photographed, edited, and directed by Steven Soderbergh. Here's Warner Bros.'s logline: “An investigation into a botched kidnapping uncovers long-held secrets connecting multiple characters and cultures in present day New York City.” It stars an ensemble cast that includes Zazie Beetz, Claire Danes, Jim Gaffigan, Timothy Olyphant, CCH Pounder, and Dennis Quaid. And: Justified: City Primeval is an FX limited series continuation of Justified, which ended in 2015 after six seasons and 78 episodes. It is based on the Elmore Leonard novel City Primeval: High Noon in Detroitand short story “Fire in the Hole.” Olyphant reprises his role as U.S. Marshall Raylan Givens. Some other stuff that happened this week, give or take: William Friedkin, Acclaimed Director of ‘The French Connection' and ‘The Exorcist,' Dies at 87 The Oscar winner “never played by the rules, often to my own detriment,” he said. Robbie Robertson, Leader of The Band, Dies at 80 Arthur Schmidt, Oscar-Winning ‘Forrest Gump' and ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit' Film Editor, Dies at 86 DJ Casper, artist behind ‘Cha Cha Slide,' has died McDonald's New Meal Celebrates Its Pop Culture Cameos—Including ‘Loki,' ‘Seinfeld' and MoreThe As Featured In Meal is tied to the upcoming season of Loki and celebrates the chain's past pop culture cameos The Forgotten Former Meaning of “Jerk” The curious pop culture etymology of “jerk,” from 1979's ‘The Jerk' through today. (Or, “When did jerk stop meaning ‘stupid'?”) A Va. woman's burp was louder than some motorcycles. It set a record. What to Stream: A Lost Seventies Classic About a (Rather Sympathetic) Stalker Alan Rudolph's “Remember My Name” is an understated film noir—a drama of stark motives and delicate surfaces.
