MUSICApple Music released its year-end data, and 2025 was good to Kendrick Lamar. He and SZA had the top song of the year in the U.S., with "Luther". Morgan Wallen had a good year, too. We discuss the the Top 10:On the Global chart, the #1 song was "APT." by ROSE and Bruno Mars. "Luther" came in second. Even though Kendrick had a great year, he did NOT accomplish his main goal, which was to END DRAKE. He was Apple's most-streamed artist GLOBALLY in 2025.

Think again. Whamageddon is the ultimate holiday survival game. The challenge? Make it till Christmas Eve without hearing Wham!'s “Last Christmas.” Sounds easy, right? Nope. This song is everywhere, from here on the radio to shops to the dentist's office. The rules are simple: if you hear the original 1984 version of the song, you're out and have to post your fail to #Whamageddon. But covers and remixes? Totally safe.

That Show Hasn't Been Funny In Years: an SNL podcast on Radio Misfits
Nick spotlights one of the funniest and most brilliantly observed Saturday Night Live characters ever created — Angel, Every Boxer's Girlfriend From Every Movie About Boxing Ever. Played to perfection by Heidi Gardner, Angel is a whirlwind of tears, tough love, and hair spray, delivering her iconic line, “I'm taking my kids to my sister's,” with soap-opera sincerity every time she appeared on Weekend Update. Nick explores the origins of the character, the tropes it skewers, and Gardner's gift for walking the line between parody and pathos. You'll hear all of Angel's unforgettable Update moments, including her scenes with Matt Damon and Michael B. Jordan, plus clips from classic boxing films like Rocky, The Fighter, and Cinderella Man that inspired her. It's a hilarious deep dive into one of SNL's most quotable and fully realized characters — and a well-earned tribute to one of the show's sharpest performers, Heidi Gardner. [Ep 150]
The creative force behind Sinners and his cinematic partner in crime. A rare look inside one of Hollywood's most important creative partnerships. Michael B.

How well do you know Ryan Coogler? A couple of years ago, the Oakland-born filmmaker began “to reckon with the fact that the audience doesn't truly know me at all.” Which might sound strange at first. At that point in his career, the writer-director was all but a household name. His 2013 debut Fruitvale Station had earned him the keys to the Rocky franchise, resulting in 2015's acclaimed Creed. His next step was to helm a superhero movie that transcended the genre. That film, 2018's Black Panther, wasn't just another Marvel movie. It was a bold, operatic, Kendrick Lamar-soundtracked moment in the culture, that surpassed a billion dollars at the box office. In 2022, a sequel followed, grossing just shy of that mark and capping a remarkable decade: Coogler, critics raved, was a filmmaker who'd grown into the spectacle of blockbuster cinema as a Hollywood craftsman, without outgrowing or leaving behind the powerful character-based emotion and complexity that he delivered with Fruitvale Station.And yet still, the 39-year-old found himself concerned that for all that visibility, he perhaps hadn't yet made a film that was wholly his– his personality, his history, his family lineage, imprinted in the page, pressed into celluloid. Those films were his takes on existing IP – or in the case of Fruitvale, a true story. And so, he got to work on something new. A film inspired in part by his uncle James, who loved blues music and told stories of a different America. A film that had plenty to sink your teeth in for genre cinema enthusiasts – but simultaneously dove into questions he was grappling with, in the wake of considerable loss. Ryan's Uncle James died during post-production on Creed. Other family members had passed away too. And then of course there's Chadwick Boseman, the star of Ryan's Black Panther smash hit, who died following a battle with cancer in 2020, hitting the writer-director hard. Today on Script Apart, Ryan and I break down how those losses manifested in Sinners – one of the most critically acclaimed films of 2025. He tells me about the conversations with his Uncle James and his Grandmother that helped inform this vampire period piece, starring Michael B. Jordan as Smoke and Stack – twin brothers with a dream of opening a juke joint for their community. We also get into the meaning of Sinners' dance sequence, in which Sammy – played by Miles Caton – summons the ghosts of Black musicians past and future. And we talk about why this is a story about the joy of community when you look past the blood shed – the defiant glee of deciding to build something of your own, in a world that lets you own so little.

Wir reden über Blood & Sinners, Once Upon a Time in Seoul, Drop und Fantastic Four: First Steps – und fragen uns nebenbei, welcher Streamingdienst mittlerweile eigentlich die Nase vorne hat.Ryan Cooglers Blood & Sinners bringt Blues, Glauben und Vampir-Tragödie in den Südstaaten – Michael B. Jordan doppelt, aber nicht doppelt so fröhlich. Once Upon a Time in Seoul führt uns zurück in die Trümmerzeit nach dem Koreakrieg – jugendliche Schmuggler, Hoffnung, Hunger und der schmutzige Wiederaufbau.

The powerful new documentary Artfully United, arriving in theaters nationwide on October 17, illuminates art's ability to bridge gaps and create understanding. Mike Norice rose up from the gang-filled streets of South Central LA to become a visual artist and sneaker-art designer (making custom paintings and sneakers for celebrities such as Elton John, Mariah Carey, Michael B. Jordan, Tom Cruise and many more). He began painting inspiring murals with uplifting messages in the city's toughest neighborhoods, which led to the Artfully United project — a national, 20-mural series he designed, using his art and vision as an unparalleled source of hope. That project not only brought Norice attention from political leaders and local activists but most crucially, let the children and those in distress know they have potential and hope for a brighter future.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesDuring a recent round of interviews with various comic-centric YouTube channels last week, James Gunn seemingly revealed that despite rampant speculation, his DCU is not building toward the character of Darkseid as a “big bad”. As to why he's not pursuing what many fans might argue is the obvious direction for the studio, he cited the efforts of the comic book cinematic universes that paved the way for his own, saying, "Using Darkseid as the big bad now is not necessarily the thing... because Zack did it so cool in his way and because of Thanos and Marvel." Gunn expanded his thoughts on both, acknowledging some of the shortcomings of the DCEU and detailing how similar Thanos and Darkseid are that it wouldn't feel fresh for audiences. While Marvel has yet to confirm the much-discussed Scarlet Witch's return to the MCU, in a new interview with beauty, fashion and pop culture outlet InStyle, Elizabeth Olsen reiterated that she's ready to step back into the role. "It's ridiculous," she said of making MCU movies. "We're grown people behaving like children on a playground. We're flying. We're shooting things out of our hands. And it's a character that I've gotten to return to so many times over 10 years. It's good to put her down and then I miss her, and I want her back. I'd jump at the opportunity to be in her shoes again." Last week, Netflix revealed its plans to release the feature-length finale of Stranger Things' final season in theaters, reversing course after the streamer had previously rejected the Duffer Brothers' theatrical release pitch. Theaters will screen the finale starting Dec. 31 at 5 p.m. PT — coinciding with its global Netflix debut — and continuing through Jan. 1, 2026. Disney+ will begin streaming The Fantastic Four: First Steps on Nov. 5, following the film's $521 million worldwide box office haul over the summer.Over the weekend, Sony's Crunchyroll released Chainsaw Man – The Movie, which topped the domestic box office with $17.2 million and reached $108 million globally. Black Phone 2 continued its solid run, surpassing $80 million worldwide. Regretting You debuted in third place with a better-than-expected $22.9 million, while the Bruce Springsteen biopic Deliver Me From Nowhere disappointed with $16.1 million in its opening weekend.Paramount Pictures is finalizing a deal to acquire Ti West's adaptation of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, with Johnny Depp set to play Ebenezer Scrooge.

The film will be released on July 31, which means it's debuting right in the middle of a pretty crowded IMAX season: the live-action Moana and The Odyssey are arriving on July 10 and July 17, respectively.Disney has officially exited its partnership with the BBC on Doctor Who after two years.

Ellen Adair and Eric Gilde discuss the 2001 movie "Hardball." They introduce the film (1:34), with an overview of the story, the cast, and filmmakers, and review the 20-80 baseball scouting grades for rating the film, with a new metaphor (8:14). In Amount of Baseball (17:50), the scouts initially disagree, but slightly convince each other. Ellen has two potential player comps. Baseball Accuracy (25:26) compares this Little League play to other films, with just a couple of editorial / geographical issues. Ellen defends Frank Thomas's honor and digs in on Sammy Sosa's consecutive homers, and records by Ken Griffey Jr, Don Mattingly, and Kevin Mench. That is not Wrigley. Those are not NBA games. Luis Garcia's dance step is considered. Storytelling (39:23) is a real challenge, when the entire inveterate gambler storyline does not work. Plus, white savior problems, a very confusing moral, and a complete lack of necessary exposition. There are so many unanswered questions. How does he earn their trust? Why does G-Baby have to die? Eulogy issues, uniform issues. At long last, the Score Tool (1:24:13) is only a partial respite, with some small problems of its own. They consider some of the soundtrack songs, including "Ghetto," "Hardball," "Big Poppa," "Where the Party At," and R. Kelly. Acting (1:30:21) considers the ceiling and floor of a slightly mis-cast Keanu Reeves. Diane Lane was trying, John Hawkes had an impossible task, D.B. Sweeney deserves better. Young actors Michael B. Jordan, Bryan Hearne, Julian Griffith, and DeWayne Warren almost save the movie. Neither Delightfulness of Catcher (1:39:26) or Delightfulness of Announcer (1:40:27) offer much. In Lack of Misogyny (1:41:00), they discuss the insipidity of the lame romantic subplot. No spoilers on the following segments: Yes or No (1:45:06), Six Degrees of Baseball (1:48:56), Favorite Moment (1:50:43) Least Favorite Moment (1:53:00), Scene We Would Have Liked to See (1:54:54), Dreamiest Player (1:56:50), Favorite Performance (1:57:09), and Next Time (2:00:32).

On this week's episode, I'm joined by Katey Rich and Christopher Rosen of The Ankler to preview the awards season and give you tips on what to check out (spoiler: Hamnet's gonna be a big one this year) and discuss the exquisite art of Oscar prognostication. (If you enjoy this episode, make sure to check out The Ankler's Prestige Junkie newsletter and show.) For the record, you can see my nomination guesses here at the Ankler Pundits site. One of the things we delve into is the weird position Oscar pundits find themselves in, as they are torn between portraying the world as it is and trying to subtly change things to reshape the world in their image, as the predictions themselves have been known to shape the outcome of races. And that's why I am staking a claim here: Delroy Lindo deserves a god-dang Oscar nomination for his work in Sinners. Look, don't get me wrong: Lindo has deserved Oscar gold for some time. He absolutely deserved it for his work in Da Five Bloods, for instance. But I celebrate the man's entire body of work. I would give him a lifetime achievement award simply for his pronunciation of “sesame cake” in Congo. The man's a damn legend and it's about time the Academy gave him his due. But he especially deserves it for the work he does in Sinners, a movie that seems lined up to snag a whole boatload of Oscar nominations, including best picture. Yes, yes: Michael B. Jordan's dual performance as Smoke and Stack is the showcase of the film. But Lindo's turn as Delta Slim embodies the soul of the movie; he is the embodiment of the life of a musician, of a black musician, in the American South at a time when simply being black could mark you for death. And he's just funny as hell in the role, delivering these slightly off-kilter line reads that no one else could have pulled off. Give the man his Oscar gold already! At the very least, give him the nomination. The people demand it! Leave your favorite Lindo performance in the comments, if you would. I'd like to prove that this man deserves his plaudits.

"The part of me was him" - Fright Nights continues on Cinematic Reviews with Ryan Coogler's epic vampire film starring a double dose of Michael B. Jordan!
[School of Movies 2025] Topping lists for film of the year, this is the first Ryan Coogler-directed film that is his own. Not a comic book adaptation like the Black Panthers, not a legasequel like Creed and not a direct real life account like Fruitvale Station. This one puts Ryan on the map as a genuine visionary and master of his craft. Clarksdale, Mississippi, 1932. Twin brothers, Smoke & Stack (both played by Michael B. Jordan) after returning home with stolen money from gangster shenanigans in Chicago, spend the day setting up an illegal juke joint for the local black community. As the sun goes down and the place starts rocking they attract the attention of some covetous vampires. Rich, bloody, tragic and complex, with otherworldly music, this story will knock your socks off and haunt your dreams.

The powerful new documentary Artfully United, arriving in theaters nationwide on October 17, illuminates art's ability to bridge gaps and create understanding. Mike Norice rose up from the gang-filled streets of South Central LA to become a visual artist and sneaker-art designer (making custom paintings and sneakers for celebrities such as Elton John, Mariah Carey, Michael B. Jordan, Tom Cruise and many more). He began painting inspiring murals with uplifting messages in the city's toughest neighborhoods, which led to the Artfully United project — a national, 20-mural series he designed, using his art and vision as an unparalleled source of hope. That project not only brought Norice attention from political leaders and local activists but most crucially, let the children and those in distress know they have potential and hope for a brighter future.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.
It's Spooky Season, and Adrian has never seen Sinners—Ryan Coogler's fantastic vampire film set in the Jim Crow South—so here we go! Released in April 2025, Sinners became one of the year's surprise hits, a box office success built around an original screenplay. The film stars Michael B. Jordan in a dual role as twins who return to their Mississippi hometown to open a juke joint—only to find themselves under attack by vampires. Swain and Adrian discuss their relationships with vampire movies, the racial themes at play in Sinners, and the deeper questions the story raises—including whether the film's villain, Remmick, might actually have a point. They also spotlight Sinners' terrific supporting cast—Hailee Steinfeld, Wunmi Mosaku, Delroy Lindo, and breakout star Miles Caton. Keeping it one hundred, they offer a few critiques as well, including the movie's uneven pacing and thoughts on "that" scene. Overall, Sinners is a blast, and we think it earns a solid spot in the horror genre and within what we'll gladly call the Black Horror Canon.
Send us a textIn this vein-popping episode of Entertain This!, we sink our teeth into Ryan Coogler's Sinners—the vampire flick that's equal parts Get Out social satire and From Dusk Till Dawn bar brawl, set against a sultry 1930s Mississippi Delta backdrop. Michael B. Jordan doubles down as twin brothers fleeing Chicago's underworld, only to unearth a nest of bloodsuckers who make eternal life look like a bad sharecropper deal. Hailee Steinfeld croons the blues while dodging daylight, and the whole affair pulses with Coogler's signature style. It presents the eternal question—would you trade your soul for immortality if it came with a side of chitlins?We dissect the film's knockout set pieces (that shotgun-wielding sunrise showdown? Chef's kiss), debate whether vampires are the ultimate metaphor for generational trauma or just excuses for killer costumes. Spoiler alert: necks get nicked, laughs get drawn, and we leave no plot hole unprodded.
