Only non-marble people will find this week’s episode of Up to Date Late amusing. Jac shares the latest woes of Ben Affleck following his split from Ana de Armas – the loss of his favorite cardboard cutout. Armie Hammer is on the news again, but instead of criminal charges, he’s snagging women in the Cayman Islands. Jac and Amy are not big Lord of the Rings fans, but they’ll probably watch the TV show that is under production. The girls debate who should be the star of Bridgerton’s second season. Claudia Conoway’s cry for help has Jac and Amy concerned for the girl’s health and safety. Although Joe Exotic is hurt that he didn’t get a pardon from Trump, that’s not stopping Amy from agreeing to marry him if that means she gets a book deal. Jac and Amy also discuss Japan pulling out of the Olympics, the upcoming documentary on Britney Spears, and Noah Beck’s (also known as Dixie D’Amelio’s boyfriend) new Calvin Klein underwear photoshoot.

Backyennew says his son already regularly played Minecraft with his friends, so it quickly became their go-to hangout after the Japanese government closed schools two weeks ago in response to the coronavirus pandemic. Using it as a social space to hold their own graduation ceremony just made sense. It looks like these kids built a whole dang assembly hall, complete with a stage, seating, and a proper red carpet which they could all walk down in order to receive their virtual diplomas. The backdrop is even emblazoned with the word "Summer," just to reinforce the end-of-school vibes. Japanese netizens seemed to feel the same way with their comments:“The kids are all right.”“Parents are doing ‘telework’ and kids are doing ‘telegraduation.'”“I’m so jealous of what awesome things kids have these day.”“Those who say video games are bad, look at this!”“This will probably be an even better memory than a regular graduation for them.”16 March 2020 – Sonic beats Detective Pikachu…in the box office - https://movieweb.com/sonic-the-hedgehog-video-game-movies-box-office/Sonic the Hedgehog has managed to claim a record by becoming the highest-grossing video game adaptation of all time, at least at the domestic box-office. The Paramount production currently stands at a little above $145 million dollars domestic collection. This puts it slightly ahead of Detective Pikachu, which managed to make around $144 million domestically. However, Detective Pikachu is still ahead of Sonic the Hedgehog in international territories, with earnings of over $400 million dollars. The future of video game movies appears to be looking bright now, with the medium finally being considered seriously by big Hollywood studios which are willing to allocate huge budgets and significant star power to those projects.16 March 2020 – Steam hits 20 million concurrent users - https://www.pcgamesn.com/steam/20-million-users-coronavirusThe precise number being 20,313,451. Curiously, though 20 million is the highest since records began, the number of in-game players is yet to break records. It appears a lot of users are idling in their library, browsing the store, or have just left it running in the background. The top game as we speak is CS:GO at 971k, followed by Dota 2 with 616k and PUBG at 264k. The 14 million difference between those logged into Steam and those playing is substantial, but this record at least points to continued growth for Valve’s platform. Increased competition from companies like Epic doesn’t appear to have caused any major issues, though Fortnite did once beat Steam’s in-game player record all on its own.Remembrances16 March 1935 – John Macleod - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Macleod_(physiologist)John James Rickard Macleod, Scottish biochemist and physiologist. He devoted his career to diverse topics in physiology and biochemistry, but was chiefly interested in carbohydrate metabolism. He is noted for his role in the discovery and isolation of insulin during his tenure as a lecturer at the University of Toronto, for which he and Frederick Banting received the 1923 Nobel prize in Physiology or Medicine. Awarding the prize to Macleod was controversial at the time, because according to Banting's version of events, Macleod's role in the discovery was negligible. It was not until decades after the events that an independent review acknowledged a far greater role than was attributed to him at first. He died after suffering from several years of arthritis at the age of 58 in Aberdeen.16 March 2012 – Donald E. Hillman - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_E._HillmanDonald Edison Hillman, American World War II flying ace and prisoner of war credited with five enemy aircraft destroyed. He was also the first American pilot, in 1952, to make a deep-penetration overflight of Soviet territory for the purpose of aerial reconnaissance. He flew a Boeing B-47B Stratojet which left Eielson Air Force Base in Alaska. It crossed over the Arctic ocean, turned eastwards back over Siberia, and returned to Eielson via Provideniya. It was the United States' first deep-penetration reconnaissance mission against the Soviet Union. He died at the age of 93 in Seattle, Washington.16 March 2016 – Alexander Esenin-Volpin - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Esenin-VolpinAlexander Sergeyevich Esenin-Volpin, Russian-American poet and mathematician. A notable dissident,political prisoner and a leader of the Soviet human rights movement, he spent a total of six years incarcerated and repressed by the Soviet authorities in psikhushkas and exile. In mathematics, he is known for his foundational role in ultrafinitism. His early work was in general topology, where he introduced Esenin-Volpin's theorem. Most of his later work was on the foundations of mathematics, where he introduced ultrafinitism, an extreme form of constructive mathematics that casts doubt on the existence of not only infinite sets, but even of large integers such as 1012. He died at the age of 91 in Boston.Famous Birthdays16 March 1774 – Captain Matthew Flinders - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_FlindersEnglish navigator and cartographer who led the second circumnavigation of New Holland that he would subsequently call "Australia or Terra Australis" and identified it as a continent. Flinders made three voyages to the Southern Ocean between 1791 and 1810. In the second voyage, George Bass and Flinders confirmed that Van Diemen's Land (now Tasmania) was an island. In the third voyage, Flinders circumnavigated the mainland of what was to be called Australia, accompanied by Aboriginal man Bungaree. Heading back to England in 1803, Flinders' vessel needed urgent repairs at Isle de France (Mauritius). Although Britain and France were at war, Flinders thought the scientific nature of his work would ensure safe passage, but a suspicious governor kept him under arrest for more than six years. In captivity, he recorded details of his voyages for future publication, and put forward his rationale for naming the new continent 'Australia', as an umbrella term for New Holland and New South Wales – a suggestion taken up later by Governor Macquarie. He was born in Donington, Lincolnshire.16 March 1840 – Shibusawa Eiichi - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shibusawa_EiichiShibusawa Eiichi, 1st Viscount Shibusawa, Japanese industrialist widely known today as the "father of Japanese capitalism". He spearheaded the introduction of Western capitalism to Japan after the Meiji Restoration. He introduced many economic reforms including use of double-entry accounting, joint-stock corporations and modern note-issuing banks. He founded the first modern bank based on joint stock ownership in Japan. The bank was aptly named The First National Bank (Dai Ichi Kokuritsu Ginkō, now merged into Mizuho Bank) and had the power to issue its own notes. Through this bank, he founded hundreds of other joint stock corporations in Japan. Many of these companies still survive to this day as quoted companies in the Tokyo Stock Exchange, which Shibusawa also founded. The Japanese Chamber of Commerce and Industry was founded by him as well. He was also involved in the foundation of many hospitals, schools, universities (including the first women's university), the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo and charitable organizations including the Japan Red Cross. On April 9, 2019, it was announced that Eiichi would be the historical figure featured on Japanese ¥10000 banknotes expected to enter circulation around 2024. He was born in Fukaya, Saitama.16 March 1856 – Napoléon, Prince Imperial - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napol%C3%A9on,_Prince_ImperialNapoléon Eugène Louis Jean Joseph Bonaparte, prince imperial, the only child of Emperor Napoleon III and his wife, Eugénie de Montijo. After his father was dethroned in 1870, he relocated with his family to England. On his father's death in January 1873, he was proclaimed by the Bonapartist faction as Napoleon IV, Emperor of the French. The asteroid moon Petit-Prince was named after the Prince Imperial in 1998, because it orbits an asteroid named after his mother (45 Eugenia). He was born in Paris, French Empire.16 March 1936 – Raymond Damadian - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raymond_DamadianRaymond Vahan Damadian, American physician, medical practitioner, and inventor of the first MR (Magnetic Resonance) Scanning Machine. Damadian's research into sodium and potassium in living cells led him to his first experiments with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) which caused him to first propose the MR body scanner in 1969. Damadian discovered that tumors and normal tissue can be distinguished in vivo by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) because of their prolonged relaxation times, both T1 (spin-lattice relaxation) or T2 (spin-spin relaxation). Damadian was the first to perform a full body scan of a human being in 1977 to diagnose cancer. Damadian invented an apparatus and method to use NMR safely and accurately to scan the human body, a method now well known as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). He went on to collaborate with Wilson Greatbach, one early developer of the implantable pacemaker, to develop an MRI-compatible pacemaker. He was born in New York City, New York.16 March 1971 – Alan Tudyk - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_TudykAlan Wray Tudyk, American actor and voice actor. He is known for his roles as Hoban "Wash" Washburne in the space western series Firefly and the film Serenity and Tucker McGee in Tucker & Dale vs. Evil. He has also had starring roles in the films DodgeBall: A True Underdog Story,I, Robot,A Knight's Tale, Transformers: Dark of the Moon and Rogue One. Since voicing King Candy in 2012's Wreck-It Ralph, Tudyk has voiced characters in every Walt Disney Animation Studios feature film. He wrote, directed, and starred in the comedy web series Con Man (2015–17) about a struggling actor whose career is still defined by a successful science fiction TV show he was once on, loosely based on Tudyk's own experience having been on Firefly. The series aired on Syfy in 2017 and earned him a Primetime Emmy Award nomination. As of 2019, Tudyk plays the main antagonist, Mr. Nobody, in the DC Universe series Doom Patrol. He was born in El Paso, Texas.Events of Interest16 March 1926 – First liquid-fueled rocket - https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/first-liquid-fueled-rocketAmerican Robert H. Goddard, successfully launches the world’s first liquid-fueled rocket at Auburn, Massachusetts, on March 16, 1926. The rocket traveled for 2.5 seconds at a speed of about 60 mph, reaching an altitude of 41 feet and landing 184 feet away. The rocket was 10 feet tall, constructed out of thin pipes, and was fueled by liquid oxygen and gasoline. His work was recognized by the aviator Charles A. Lindbergh, who helped secure him a grant from the Guggenheim Fund for the Promotion of Aeronautics. Using these funds, Goddard set up a testing ground in Roswell, New Mexico, which operated from 1930 until 1942. During his tenure there, he made 31 successful flights, including one of a rocket that reached 1.7 miles off the ground in 22.3 seconds. Meanwhile, while Goddard conducted his limited tests without official U.S. support, Germany took the initiative in rocket development and by September 1944 was launching its V-2 guided missiles against Britain to devastating effect. During the war, Goddard worked in developing a jet-thrust booster for a U.S. Navy seaplane. He would not live to see the major advances in rocketry in the 1950s and ’60s that would make his dreams of space travel a reality. NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, is named in his honor.16 March 1968 – My Lai Masscre - https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/my-lai-massacre-takes-place-in-vietnamA platoon of American soldiers brutally kills as many as 500 unarmed civilians at My Lai, one of a cluster of small villages located near the northern coast of South Vietnam. The crime, which was kept secret for nearly two years, later became known as the My Lai Massacre. a platoon of soldiers from Charlie Company received word that Viet Cong guerrillas had taken cover in the Quang Ngai village of Son My. The platoon entered one of the village’s four hamlets, My Lai 4, on a search-and-destroy mission on the morning of March 16. Instead of guerrilla fighters, they found unarmed villagers, most of them women, children and old men. The soldiers had been advised before the attack by army command that all who were found in My Lai could be considered VC or active VC sympathizers, and were told to destroy the village. the massacre reportedly ended when an Army helicopter pilot, Warrant Officer Hugh Thompson, landed his aircraft between the soldiers and the retreating villagers and threatened to open fire if they continued their attacks. The events at My Lai were covered up by high-ranking army officers until investigative journalist Seymour Hersh broke the story. Soon, My Lai was front-page news and an international scandal.16 March 2001 – Terminator has a rare theatrical re-release -https://www.scifihistory.net/march-16.htmlOn this day in 2001, The Terminator enjoyed a rare theatrical re-release in the United Kingdom.

Each week on THE SNEIDER CUT, Collider's senior film reporter Jeff Sneider pulls back the curtain on the business of Hollywood. For his 20th episode, he weighs in on a trio of controversies that erupted this week, such as the lack of female directors recognized by the Golden Globes, the depiction of reporter Kathy Scruggs in Richard Jewell, and the merits of Worst of the Year/Decade lists. If you're easily offended, or simply can't handle uncomfortable truths about the movie business, Jeff suggests you skip the first half of the show, which is not for the faint of heart. Elsewhere, Jeff discusses casting news on The Matrix 4, The Batman, the Lord of the Rings TV series and the Disney+ remake of Home Alone, plus news on David Benioff and D.B. Weiss' latest project, and an exciting new Stephen King adaptation. He also reviews new trailers for Wonder Woman 1984, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Free Guy, The Grudge, In the Heights, Promising Young Woman and Swallow, and drops mini-reviews of Michael Bay's action-packed Netflix movie 6 Underground, Sam Mendes' war movie 1917, and Greta Gerwig's adaptation of Little Women. Finally, Jeff offers his take on Netflix going above and beyond to court Critics Choice Awards voters, and the streamer's self-reported viewing numbers for The Irishman.

It seems to be that just about every book series is getting a spin-off these days -- that includes modern classics like Harry Potter all the way down to YA mega franchises like the Shadowhunters Chronicles. We love some of them. Others make us upset. And we thought it'd be relevant to discuss the dangers (and upsides) of adding too much to an already established world. Keep in mind, we recorded this episode before the J.K. Rowling controversy hit the internet earlier this week. It just goes to show you that this is on everyone's mind. In this episode... Yay or nay to spin-offs? What's everyone's reaction to when spin-offs are announced? Are spin-offs ever necessary? We talk Cassandra Clare's Shadowhunters Chronicles. Is there a certain budget when it comes to spin-offs? Can a writer add too much? Where does J.K. Rowling's Wizarding World fit into all this? In the headlines... There's a new Harry Potter mobile game coming from the makers of Pokémon Go. We've got our first look at the illustrated edition of Goblet of Fire! We're learning more and more about Amazon's 'Lord of the Rings' Shadowhunters is on its final season. Children of Blood and Bone's sequel is getting a later release date. Related Linkage: ‘Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire’ illustrated edition cover and release date revealed!
