‘Elio’ Review: Pixar’s Accidental Abduction
Pixar’s newest film, Elio, follows a kid who gets accidentally scooped up by aliens who think he’s Earth’s ambassador. The movie’s got the studio’s usual stunning animation, but critics say it doesn’t quite hit the emotional highs of Pixar’s all-time greats. Still, it sounds like a fun ride—just maybe not one you’ll remember forever.
Editor’s Note: Pixar’s reputation is built on heartwarming, groundbreaking stories, so every new release comes with sky-high expectations. Elio seems like a solid addition to their lineup—gorgeous to look at and entertaining, but not necessarily a game-changer. For families or animation fans, it’s probably worth watching, but don’t expect another Toy Story or Up.

Fat Joe Sued for $20 Million by Former Hypeman in Explosive Suit: Alleges Rapper Engaged in Sex Acts With Minors and Coerced Him Into ‘More Than 4,000 Sexual Acts to Maintain His Standing’
negativeEntertainment
Fat Joe is facing a bombshell $20 million lawsuit from his former hypeman, Terrance "T.A." Dixon, who claims the rapper subjected him to years of exploitation—including forced sexual acts, financial fraud, and psychological abuse. The suit alleges Dixon was coerced into over 4,000 sexual encounters to keep his job, alongside accusations of violence and manipulation.
Editor’s Note: If true, these allegations paint a horrifying picture of abuse in the entertainment industry—especially given the power imbalance between a star and their team. Even if unproven, the lawsuit could seriously damage Fat Joe’s reputation and spark wider conversations about exploitation behind the scenes in hip-hop. For fans, it’s a shocking fall from grace for an artist with decades in the spotlight.

positiveEntertainment
Jimmy Kimmel is taking his usual summer break, but don’t worry—his late-night show isn’t going dark. Instead, a star-studded lineup of guest hosts, including actor Diego Luna and country-rapper Jelly Roll, will step in to keep the laughs (and interviews) rolling. Other big names like Anthony Anderson, Nicole Byer, and Alan Cumming will also take turns behind the desk, ensuring the show stays fresh while Kimmel recharges.
Editor’s Note: Late-night TV fans won’t miss a beat this summer, thanks to a diverse mix of guest hosts bringing their own flair to Jimmy Kimmel Live! It’s a smart move—keeping the show lively with fresh faces while giving Kimmel a well-deserved break. Plus, the eclectic lineup (from Andor’s Luna to breakout star Jelly Roll) means there’s something for everyone.
‘Directive 8020’ Creative Director Will Doyle On Game Starring Lashana Lynch: “If We’re Living In A World Where We Can’t Have A Female Black Lead, I Don’t Want To Live There”
positiveEntertainment
Will Doyle, Creative Director of the upcoming game Directive 8020, is making a bold statement by centering the story around a Black female lead, played by Lashana Lynch. In a sci-fi horror setting where Earth is doomed and alien threats lurk, Doyle emphasizes that representation isn’t just a checkbox—it’s non-negotiable. If the gaming world can’t embrace diverse protagonists, he says, it’s not a world worth creating for.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another horror game—it’s a push for inclusivity in an industry that’s often slow to change. Doyle’s stance challenges the status quo, signaling that diverse leads shouldn’t be rare or controversial. For gamers, it’s a sign that stories are evolving to reflect the real world, not just defaulting to the same old tropes. And for devs? It’s a reminder that creativity thrives when everyone gets a seat at the table.
Poll Shows Where MAGA Really Stands on Iran Strikes
neutralEntertainment
A recent poll reveals that a majority of MAGA Republicans—staunch supporters of former President Donald Trump—are in favor of U.S. military action against Iran. The findings highlight a clear divide in foreign policy attitudes within the GOP, with Trump's base leaning toward a more aggressive stance.
Editor’s Note: This isn't just about Iran—it's a snapshot of where Trump's most loyal followers stand on global conflicts. With the 2024 election looming, these views could shape the Republican Party's foreign policy platform, influencing everything from campaign rhetoric to potential White House decisions. It also raises questions about how much sway Trump still holds over his base when it comes to matters of war and peace.

positiveEntertainment

Editor’s Note: While celebrity engagements aren’t exactly rare, this one’s got a sweet, low-key charm. Segel’s been a fan favorite for years, and Radomski’s heartfelt post makes it feel like a genuine, joyful moment—not just tabloid fodder. It’s a nice reminder that even Hollywood relationships can feel refreshingly relatable.
