Join Here: ⁠https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K⁠Ignite your inner bounty hunter as Analytic Dreamz unleashes a gripping reaction to the official trailer for Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu, unveiled September 22, 2025, and blasting into IMAX theaters May 22, 2026. Directed by Jon Favreau and co-written with Dave Filoni, this high-stakes sequel to the Disney+ saga thrusts Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and Grogu into the fray of a fractured galaxy: the Empire's remnants clash with the fragile New Republic, enlisting the armored warrior and his pint-sized Force-sensitive apprentice for a pulse-racing mission that promises epic dogfights, lightsaber skirmishes, and clan-of-two loyalty tested to the brink.Analytic Dreamz breaks down the trailer's visual feast—the resurrected Razor Crest slicing through hyperspace, Grogu's adorable yet potent Force feats like levitating foes and zapping monsters with green sludge, and heartwarming glimpses of Baby Yoda swimming or tinkering with Anzellan allies under Din's watchful beskar gaze. He spotlights triumphant returns: Garazeb "Zeb" Orrelios (voiced by Steven Blum) in full live-action glory, the irrepressible Babu Frik delivering "Good shot, baby!" quips, and a shadowy tease of Sigourney Weaver as enigmatic Colonel Ward, alongside Hutt cartel intrigue and rancor-like beast brawls that evoke classic practical-effects menace. Ludwig Göransson's score pulses with thematic thunder, bridging TV intimacy to cinematic spectacle.Does this trailer signal Star Wars' theatrical renaissance, weaving Rebels lore into a multiverse-ready epic, or does the post-Rise of Skywalker shadow demand bolder risks? Analytic Dreamz debates box-office potential, Grogu's evolving Jedi path, and how Favreau's vision elevates Mando's lone-wolf arc amid Imperial warlords' chaos—questioning if it outshines Ahsoka crossovers or sets up Rey's trilogy. For Mandalorian and Grogu trailer breakdowns, Star Wars movie reactions, Pedro Pascal updates, and Disney+ spinoff analyses, this segment is your beskar-clad essential.

So grab your motion tracker, stay frosty, and hit play — because this episode proves why Aliens isn't just a sequel, it's a relentless classic. And if you don't listen? Well… game over, man, game over!

Copycat is the sinister psychological thriller where a reclusive profiler and a hard-nosed detective race to stop a serial killer with a twisted hobby: reenacting the crimes of history's most infamous murderers. Sigourney Weaver is riveting as Dr. Helen Hudson, a brilliant mind trapped by trauma, while Holly Hunter brings grit and guts as the detective who pulls her back into the fray.

Some of the footage had been previously seen at Star Wars Celebration - Japan earlier in the year.Lucasfilm and Disney lean heavily on the popularity of "baby Yoda" in the 1 minute 35 second trailer and we see our first footage of Sigourney Weaver as a New Republic general. A new Razor Crest appears, there are post-Empire Stormtroopers, alien races seen on screen for the first time since Return of the Jedi, a Hutt, AT-ATs, explosions, aerial combat, and Grogu seems to have gathered some Anzellans as pals.The movie releases in May 2026 and more trailers will follow in the future, but this will be the next live action project release for Star Wars, after the end of Andor's second season earlier this year.Despite being a special episode of This is the Way Podcast, you can still join in the discussion by sending a comment to the email address we reveal in our podcasts.

Estas son las noticias del cine, series y cultura pop que no te puedes perder.

We're kicking off Season 3 with a comedy legend and sci‑fi favorite. Tim Allen joins Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer for a wide‑ranging conversation about Galaxy Quest lore, finding the line between parody and homage, and what it was like working alongside Alan Rickman, Sigourney Weaver, and the rest of that unforgettable cast. We also rewind to the early days of Home Improvement and stand-up, and look ahead to Tim's return to network TV with Shifting Gears. Along the way he gets candid about craft, shifting from comedy to drama on set, and the lessons that stick after decades in the business.Each week, we explore and celebrate the lives that the Star Trek universe has forever changed. From former and future cast and crew members to celebrities, scientists, and astronauts whose personal and professional journeys have been affected by the franchise, we sit down and dive deep with a new friend, laughing and learning from their stories. Sit back, grab a drink, and join our hosts, Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer, as we get geeky in The D-Con Chamber.Let's get social!

The Blind Rage Podcast tackles COPYCAT (1995), a sleek, methodical thriller where a BESPECTACLED MANIAC models HIS CRIMES after the work of notorious serial KILLERS. Sigourney Weaver stars as Helen Hudson, a criminal psychologist battling paralyzing agoraphobia after a brutal attack. She's reluctantly pulled back into the spotlight to consult on a series of murders that feel all too familiar. Holly Hunter plays Detective M.J. Monahan, keeping things sharp, blunt, and brilliantly dry. We get into the film's slow-burn suspense, grim attention to detail, and a truly nasty turn from Harry Connick, Jr. as a greasy predator with a smug streak. COPYCAT combines procedural precision with full-blown paranoia—and somehow makes it all feel way too plausible.

The RPGrinders are back for the second week using a new platform. So, we humbly beg forgiveness for all of the new problems that have overlapped the old ones. At the very least, we ask that you blame Frank for all audio issues. Eric and Break take no accountability for issues here in. :p Issues be damned, the Grinders have a show to do! There is JRPG news that must be brought to the listeners attention and most of the Grinders are here to spread the word. Without the voices of the Grinders people would have to read for themselves about some of the upcoming releases. Games like Ys Vs Trails in the Sky: Alternative Saga and a physical copy of Metal Slug Tactics are releasing this year. Looking towards the horizon that is 2026 will see the releases of Fire Emblem: Fortunes Weave and Monster Hunters Stories 3. The format may be new but that doesn't mean everything needs to change. The movie reviews are back, and one of them is an 80s classic. Break goes back nearly 40 years to review the Sigourney Weaver starring classic, Aliens. Along with the classic action title Frank has some new movie reviews. Will Dangerous Animals, the Toxic Avenger, or Voyeurs be considered classics in the 2060s? Only time will tell. (I am highly disappointed in myself for using that joke.)  Will we even have a country in 2060? The reality in America is increasingly looking grim. This week's Stinkos are headlined by the murder of a political firebrand who was known for spreading lies and bigotry. One political party seems to be using this murder as their excuse to justify some of the horrible plans they foreshadowed in Project 2025. These were always going to be the plans. They were just looking for the excuses. They thought they had found the perfect excuse this time, but the reality wasn't what they wanted. When reality doesn't fit their narrative, they rewrite the narrative. The RPGrinders do not justify murder, even if the victim did. A little bit of a shortened show but the Grinders don't want to end on such a sad note. Instead, they end with the Sweetos! Among those is the return of Frank and Break's favorite sport, American Football. The NFL is back and starting with a bang. It's a needed mental distraction from the world falling apart around us. We all need mental stress breaks, just don't let them distract from what is truly important. As things are seemingly getting more tense by the day, the future of this country looks bleak. Is it destined to fall like the many empires that have come before? Will this be the country that starts the spark that begins WW3? Is Break being paranoid and delusional, or is America still fighting a civil war against the legacy of the Confederacy?                I must find Harmie. His sweet melodies will help us get through these trying times!         I wanted to call the episode "White on White Violence" but I think that might get me in trouble.

Welkom bij Nerd Culture #225, de Gamekings podcast waar we alles bespreken wat de nerdwereld deze week bezighoudt. Van Dave Bautista die bijna Peacemaker werd tot de officiële bevestiging dat Netflix' BioShock-film gebaseerd wordt op de eerste game. We checken ook trailers van Christy, The Smashing Machine en The Rip, bespreken opvallend nieuws rond Superman, en nemen een kijkje bij Spielberg, Brendan Fraser en zelfs een onverwachte rol voor Ridge Forrester in Kees Flodder. Kortom: een aflevering vol verrassingen, nostalgie en flinke discussies over film, series en alles geeky.Dave Bautista wees rol voor Peacemaker afDave Bautista is wereldwijd bekend geworden als Drax in Guardians of the Galaxy, maar bijna had hij een nieuwe iconische superheld gespeeld. James Gunn onthulde dat hij oorspronkelijk de rol van Peacemaker speciaal voor Bautista had geschreven. Toch wees de voormalig WWE-ster de kans af – simpelweg vanwege geld. Bautista kreeg gelijktijdig een aanbod voor twee films en kon zich de lagere gage van de serie niet veroorloven. Uiteindelijk stapte Gunn over op John Cena, die het personage inmiddels volledig naar zich toe heeft getrokken en er een van de meest geliefde DCU-rollen van maakte.In de podcast bespreken we hoe anders Peacemaker had kunnen zijn met Bautista in de hoofdrol, en of zijn stijl bij de serie had gepast. Ook kijken we naar zijn ambities binnen de DCU: van Bane tot Lex Luthor, Bautista droomt nog altijd van een eigen stempel in dit universum.Bioshock film gebaseerd op eerste gameNa jaren van stilte is er eindelijk duidelijkheid: de Netflix-verfilming van BioShock wordt gebaseerd op de allereerste game uit 2007. Producer Roy Lee bevestigde dat regisseur Francis Lawrence (The Hunger Games, I Am Legend) zich volledig gaat richten op het verhaal van Jack en de duistere onderwaterstad Rapture. Daarmee lijkt een langgekoesterde wens van fans in vervulling te gaan, want velen vreesden dat de film een losstaand verhaal zou worden zonder directe link met de games.De grote uitdaging zit volgens Lawrence in het tot leven wekken van Rapture op het witte doek: een dystopische stad vol verval, gevaar en filosofische thema's. Met het succes van recente game-adaptaties zoals The Last of Us en Twisted Metal is het vertrouwen echter gegroeid dat dit wel degelijk mogelijk is. In de podcast bespreken we of Netflix en Lawrence de sfeer van BioShock kunnen vangen, en of dit eindelijk de videogamefilm wordt die zowel gamers als cinefielen tevredenstelt.Timestamps:00:00:00 Nerd Culture #22500:00:26 Wat hebben we gekeken/gelezen/geluisterd?00:02:49 Thunderbolts00:14:12 Oceans (David Attenborough)00:18:03 Small Soldiers00:21:16 Peacemaker00:24:20 Lex Luthor en Superman slaan de handen ineen for Man of Tomorrow00:26:30 SUPERMAN SPOILERS!!1!00:27:36 Eigenlijk was het de bedoeling dat Dave Bautista Peacemaker zou gaan spelen00:30:04 Ondanks lagere box office opbrengst toch meer winst voor Superman00:34:20 Steven Spielberg blikt terug op Jaws00:37:54 Volgens Brendan Fraser moeten acteurs meer hun best doen door streaming00:39:50 Christy Trailer00:43:02 Cliffhanger sequel in de maak, nog vóór de reboot00:45:39 Smashing Machine Trailer00:48:07 Ridge Forrester gaat in Kees Flodder spelen00:50:21 Bioshock film gaat op eerste game gebaseerd worden00:53:52 Sigourney Weaver steekt de loftrompet af voor Alien: Earth00:55:38 Een eerste blik op Dr. Doom00:57:59 The Rip Trailer

Click here to try it out!This week the dads take a look at Copycat (1995), a mid-90s thriller that wants to be Silence of the Lambs but often ends up more made-for-TV movie. Sigourney Weaver stars as an agoraphobic psychologist dragged into a game of cat-and-mouse with a serial killer imitating history's most infamous murderers. Holly Hunter and Dermot Mulroney round out the cast, while Harry Connick Jr. chews the scenery as a crooning creep.In true Bad Dads style, we pull the film apart and ask:Does Copycat earn its place alongside the great psychological thrillers of the era, or is it just derivative drivel?Why are the cops so bad at protecting Weaver's supposedly “safe” apartment?How many times can a killer break in before you stop suspending disbelief?And was Sigourney right to say this was the performance she was most proud of?Alongside the movie, our Top 5 “copies” takes us everywhere from cloned astronauts and plagiarised authors to forged paintings, photocopied genitals, and questionable cover versions. We even put the lads through a brand-new quiz: Copy or Floppy (hint: it's exactly as puerile as it sounds).

Send us a textGrab your pulse rifles and motion trackers – we're dropping into LV-426! In this adrenaline-fueled episode, we dissect James Cameron's action-packed sequel "Aliens" (1986) and discover why it stands as one of the most successful genre shifts in cinema history.The conversation explores how Cameron transformed Ridley Scott's slow-burning horror masterpiece into an explosive action thriller without sacrificing the dread and tension that made the original so effective. We dive deep into Sigourney Weaver's Ellen Ripley – her 57-year cryosleep, the trauma she carries, and her evolution from reluctant survivor to determined warrior. That power loader showdown with the Queen? Pure cinematic gold that perfectly culminates Ripley's character arc.We couldn't stop gushing about the practical effects that still hold up brilliantly today – from the hive's unsettling biomechanical design to the imposing Alien Queen puppet operated by multiple performers. The Colonial Marines receive special attention, particularly Bill Paxton's panic-stricken Hudson ("Game over, man!") and Jenette Goldstein's tough-as-nails Vasquez. Paul Reiser's duplicitous Burke also gets his due as the human villain whose corporate greed rivals the xenomorphs in monstrosity.Our hosts debate which film reigns supreme – the atmospheric horror of "Alien" or the action-packed thrills of "Aliens" – and examine how the sequel expands the xenomorph mythology with the Queen and hive structure. From face-huggers to chest-bursters to acid blood, we analyze why these creatures remain among cinema's most terrifying creations decades later.Ready to face your fears and join the conversation?

Send us a textKatie and special guest Julie(!) run blindly through the woods as they re-watch the suspenseful early 2000's movie: The Village! It's a movie all about how if you are fed up with the woes of society, you can just start your own cult in the woods and abandon all modern luxuries - while also simultaneously fear-mongering your children - all while allowing disease and death to kill everyone because you refuse to go get medicine! ......Yeah this feels a little too topical for this day and age! SOMEBODY HELP! Come along as we meet Ivy, a blind woman who decides to go into the woods to get medicine for her newly shanked fiancé, Lucius. When we're led to believe that the evil creatures who spread fear throughout the town also live in the woods and Ivy probably won't make it, her dad gives her (and us the audience) the real talk about the creatures and the town in general. Spoiler alert! It's kinda dumb! With not many surprising twists and turns we instead get a beautifully shot movie that may or may not be a modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice! We've got scary woods, "olden times" (lol), and brainwashing galore in not-really-a-horror-movie movie. Released in 2004, it was written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan and stars Sigourney Weaver, William Hurt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Joaquin Phoenix, Adrien Brody, Brendan Gleeson, and Cherry Jones.

What happens when one of the biggest TV shows in the world makes the leap to Broadway? Alison Jaye takes us behind the scenes of Stranger Things: The First Shadow, where she steps into the role of Joyce Maldonado in a production unlike anything Broadway has ever seen. With audiences made up largely of first-time theatergoers, Alison describes what it feels like when the show plays like a full-on rollercoaster one night and like a hushed movie the next. She also opens up about the collaboration that shaped her character, the three-year journey from top-secret workshops to opening night, and why she calls Broadway the “Olympics of theater.” In this candid conversation, Alison talks about sustaining the physical, vocal, and mental energy needed for such a demanding role, and how she keeps curiosity and honesty at the center of her artistry. From discovering the surprises hidden within this massive production to finding joy in the unpredictability of live audiences, Alison brings humor, humility, and insight to a show that continues to expand the Stranger Things universe in thrilling new ways. Alison Jaye made her Broadway debut as a child in Sunday in the Park with George and later returned in Mary Poppins. She has built a wide-ranging career across stage, screen, and voice acting, including her BAFTA-nominated work in Horizon Forbidden West, and a featured role in Call Jane alongside Sigourney Weaver and Elizabeth Banks. She now stars as Joyce Maldonado in Stranger Things: The First Shadow on Broadway. This episode is powered by WelcomeToTimesSquare.com, the billboard where you can be a star for a day.

This week we're flashing back to June 25, 2020, when Del Roehling and I revisited one of the greatest sequels of all time — Aliens (1986). Back then, I had just wrapped up a tough semester in my master's program for Creative Writing, and like so many of us, I was stuck at home during lockdown. Del and I took the opportunity to dive into James Cameron's explosive follow-up to Ridley Scott's Alien, and we had a blast breaking it all down. We cover:

Following the commercial disappointment of the oppressively downbeat Alien 3, it stands to reason that 1997's follow-up, Alien Resurrection, would attempt to recapture the fun, bug-hunt thrills of James Cameron's Aliens. And while French auteur director Jean-Pierre Jeunet certainly lightened the mood—credited in part to the quippy, Joss Whedon-penned script—audiences were puzzled by this strange newborn, even with series heroine Sigourney Weaver returning and a solid supporting cast featuring Winona Ryder and Ron Perlman. Join Sebastian, Chris and Steve as they clone themselves 8 times, laser some whiskey cubes and lovingly cradle this bizarre hybrid of sci fi and French comedy/satire.

Copycat - "He Wants to Dazzle Us"This week we get into all the gory details of a serial killer's spree in COPYCAT (1995). A deathly cat and mouse game ensues as a manhunt for a clever killer is on in San Francisco. The chase is led by detectives (Holly Hunter & Dermot Mulroney) with an assist from a hotshot criminal psychologist (Sigourney Weaver).We hope you enjoy digging into this fresh episode! Support the show

Send us a textThe Gorge defies expectations at every turn. What starts as a seemingly formulaic assassin romance between Miles Teller and Anya Taylor-Joy evolves into something far more intriguing when they literally fall into another world. Their chemistry anchors this genre-bending adventure that seamlessly transitions from romantic thriller to monster-filled horror without missing a beat.Miles Teller's transformation is nothing short of remarkable. Gone is the young actor from Whiplash, replaced by a commanding leading man whose emotional range perfectly complements Anya Taylor-Joy's enigmatic presence. Though her Lithuanian accent occasionally wavers, their connection feels authentic and earned. When joined by the legendary Sigourney Weaver in a perfect supporting role, the cast elevates what could have been a standard streaming release into something truly cinematic.The film's visual design deserves special mention—particularly the creature concepts that blend organic and plant elements reminiscent of The Last of Us. While some CGI moments betray budget limitations, the overall production design creates a world you can believe in. The pacing masterfully drip-feeds information, building tension before dramatic reveals that keep you invested throughout. Even as hardcore film critics, we found ourselves genuinely startled by jump scares in what isn't technically a horror film.Where The Gorge stumbles is its final act. After brilliantly navigating multiple genres and building to a thrilling climax, it settles for a predictable conclusion that lacks tension. The music telegraphs developments too obviously, undermining otherwise strong storytelling. Yet these flaws don't erase what works—a streaming release that proves direct-to-digital films can deliver genuinely engaging cinematic experiences. Whether you're drawn to romantic thrillers, creature features, or simply appreciate watching talented actors elevate material, The Gorge offers something unexpected and worth your time.

The actor wearing Din Djarin's helmet is not always Pedro Pascal. In fact, most of the time it's Brendan Wayne, grandson of the legendary John Wayne. Making his RFR debut, Brendan Wayne joins us In The Cantina to talk about his experiences on the set of THE MANDALORIAN, his life as an actor and the connection he feels with his famous grandfather's legacy. He discusses a medical emergency that temporarily prevented him from playing the role, working with superstars like Sigorney Weaver and the late Carl Weathers, and he provides us with excitement as we look forward to next year's feature film, THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU.

Dans cette forêt rwandaise perchée au sommet du monde, où reposent les gorilles qu'elle a tant aimés, la primatologue Dian Fossey semble avoir trouvé la paix. Pourtant, son tombeau raconte une autre histoire. Car derrière l'hommage rendu à la « femme qui vivait seule dans la montagne » se cache l'ombre d'un crime non résolu. Le 27 décembre 1985, Fossey est retrouvée morte, sauvagement tuée dans sa cabane. Mais comment cette scientifique si engagée pour la protection des gorilles à dos argenté a-t-elle pu connaître un tel destin ?

Tels sont les derniers mots du journal de bord de Dian Fossey. Son assassin l'empêchera d'écrire les lignes suivantes.

Wow, what an honor it was to have Carrie-Anne Moss on the show this week! You of course know Carrie-Anne from her iconic portrayal of Trinity in the Matrix. She also played Natalie in Memento and Jeri Hogarth in Jessica Jones and she's currently starring as Greta Nelso alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger in FUBAR. We talk about it in the episode, but Carrie-Anne is one of those actors, like Sigourney Weaver, who has become known for playing strong women. But I love how her strong women always have this layer of vulnerability. I've truly looked up to her for so long and it was amazing to get to know her a bit better! We talk about her film roles and the way she thinks about acting as a trade. We also discuss her experience being a mom to three kids and how that led her into meditation— if you're curious to take one of her guided meditations on Annapurna Living, I recommend checking it out! This was a really fun and meaningful conversation for me and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Be sure to stick around for the Hindsight, where my producer Jeph and I talk about the parallels between my career and Carrie-Anne's and what it's like to be responsible for a fan's queer awakening.

Sur place, son premier bivouac s'établit en territoire congolais, à terme balayé par les instabilités politiques, les conflits. Tournant autour des volcans, Dian Fossey retente sa chance du côté de la frontière rwandaise, sur le flanc du Mont Visoke.

Galaxy Quest (1999) is one of the most clever and affectionate love letters ever written to sci-fi fandom. It follows the washed-up cast of a cult sci-fi TV series who, after years of coasting on convention appearances, suddenly find themselves whisked into a real interstellar conflict by aliens who believe their show was genuine historical record. While it hilariously pokes fun at sci-fi tropes—like overblown captains, technobabble, and obsessive fans—it does so with deep respect and affection for the genre and its community. The film balances sharp parody with genuine heart, delivering a story that's equal parts comedic romp and heartfelt adventure, anchored by excellent humor, tight pacing, and a fantastic ensemble cast featuring Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, and the wonderful Sam Rockwell.This summer, Galaxy Quest kicks off our “Summer of Sam,” a movie marathon celebrating films featuring actors named Sam. Here, Sam Rockwell absolutely shines as Guy, the anxious extra terrified he's destined to be the expendable crewman—a role that's both hysterical and surprisingly relatable for any sci-fi fan. If you've never seen Galaxy Quest, it's a must-watch, especially if you love Star Trek or sci-fi in general. It's not just a parody; it's a joyful tribute that understands why fans adore starships, aliens, and the hope woven into these stories. By the time the credits roll, you'll be laughing, a little misty-eyed, and absolutely convinced that, even in space, never giving up and never surrendering is the way to go.Stick around until the end for a round of Star Wars Trivia!Safe travels, nomads!

Seuls les plus téméraires peuvent y accéder. Il se niche à près de 3000 mètres d'altitude, enveloppé par la brume, perdu dans la forêt tropicale qui recouvre un flanc du Visoke : l'un des huit volcans endormis du massif des Virunga, aux confins du Rwanda, de l'Ouganda et de la république démocratique du Congo. Le lieu a survécu à tout, au temps, au climat et à la guerre. Il se compose de stèles rudimentaires, faites de bois, gravées de surnoms, sous lesquelles reposent des générations entières de gorilles : Digit, Peanuts, Uncle Bert, Macho… Une seule exception confirme la règle, une tombe creusée à l'écart, dotée d'une plaque en marbre.

Editors - Catherine Haight ACE, Laura Zempel ACE and Isaac Hagy ACE SIRENS editors Cate, Laura and Isaac have crafted a television experience that intrigues and entertains the audience, while also challenging them on conventional gender biases. Their work on SIRENS was not just professionally unifying but creatively fulfilling as well. The team established a ritual of analyzing scenes together each week, discussing tone, performance, and overarching storyline elements. This collaborative approach allowed them to align their unique editing styles into a cohesive representation of the series' narrative.  One of the remarkable aspects of SIRENS is its tonal balance—oscillating between humor, mystery, and drama. The show's collaborative ethos even extended beyond the main editing trio. They leaned on the talents of assistant editors like Jen Bryson, who ultimately co-edited Episode 5 with Laura. Based on her play, Elemeno Pea, Molly Smith Metzler's Sirens tells the story of two estranged sisters from Buffalo, Devon and Simon.  While Devon is back in Buffalo, caring for their father who suffers from early on-set dementia, Simone is living in the idyllic seaside town Port Haven, working as a personal assistant for a wealthy socialite named Michaela.  When Devon travels to Port Haven to bring Simone back to Buffalo to help care for their father, she finds a resistant sister who seems to be under some kind of mind control from her employer.  When Devon refuses to leave without Simone, the mystery of Michaela unravels in a blend of drama and dark comedy. CATHERINE HAIGHT, ACE Catherine Haight, ACE is a film editor who has helped bring many award-winning television shows and films to the screen. Cate has had a long collaboration with Joey Soloway including the film Afternoon Delight, starring Kathryn Hahn, the award winning series Transparent, and I Love Dick. She also cut both The Polka King, starring Jack Black, and The Good House, led by Sigourney Weaver and Kevin Kline, with the directing team of Maya Forbes & Wally Wolodarsky. Cate also has edited the films Troop Zero, starring Viola Davis and Allison Janney, and Puzzle, with Kelly Macdonald and Irrfan Khan. She also cut the television series High Desert, Mozart in the Jungle, Girls, and New Girl.   Her work on the pilot episode of Transparent earned her a nomination for both an Emmy and ACE Eddie Award, and she also received an ACE Eddie nomination for the pilot of Girls. Cate is a member of The American Cinema Editors and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Originally from New Hampshire, she now resides in Los Angeles with her husband. LAURA ZEMPEL, ACE Laura Zempel, ACE is a two-time Emmy Award winning editor based in Los Angeles. Originally from Sacramento, she received a BFA in Film Production from Chapman University. She began her career in as an assistant editor, and has gone on to edit features and television such as HBO's Euphoria, Apple TV's Lessons In Chemistry, Netflix's Beef. ISAAC HAGY, ACE Isaac Hagy, ACE graduated from USC film school in 2006 and continues to live and work in Los Angeles.  His editing credits include feature films Waves and The Friend, as well as television programs Atlanta, Mr & Mrs Smith, Station Eleven, American Vandal, and Chef's Table.  He has been honored with two Emmy and four ACE nominations.  But to be fair, his Assistant Editor - a pit mix named Blue - does most of the hard work.
