To understand what drove this producer to tears, you need to know more about the episode. “Lethe” begins with Sarek being attacked by his own aide, a fellow Vulcan who tries to blow both of them up because he hates Sarek’s association with and support of the Federation. Sarek survives but is temporarily helpless, and his only hope is the psychic link he has with Michael Burnham thanks to their previous mind-meld. She feels his pain and manages to convince Captain Lorca to search for her father. But their mental link keeps trying to reveal one of Sarek’s biggest secrets, and it’s one that he literally fights (complete with Vulcan martial arts) Burnham to keep her from discovering. After some intense mental combat between the two, we get the reveal of Sarek’s big secret, and it’s this reve...

Cristina, however, moves in with Juan Antonio, and the two become lovers lost in the romance and rhythm of life and art. Scarlet Johansson sells these scenes in such a lovely way, it’s mesmerizing. Vicky Cristina Barcelona becomes even more beautiful when Juan Antonio’s volatile ex-wife, Maria Elena (the always brilliant Penelope Cruz) enters the scene. It seems she tried to kill herself, and Juan Antonio goes to get her from the hospital and brings her back to his love nest with Cristina. In any other story, this interruption might lead to violence and chaos, but here, something different, something magical, happens. Vicky Cristina Barcelona is, at its heart, a film about love, passion, and romance, and how they can be too much for some people, and what happens when you have too little o...

NASA will also be taking advantage of this opportunity with its OSIRIS-APEX mission, which plans to meet the asteroid shortly after its pass of Earth. OSIRIS-REx, the spacecraft had previously spent the past several years following the asteroid Bennu and successfully delivered NASA’s first asteroid sample collected from space. Since its collection capsule was already used for Bennu, for Apophis the craft will use its gas thrusters to kick up dust and small rocks. Though at first the asteroid’s size and trajectory invoked fear now that most risk has been ruled out scientists across the world look forward to April 2029. Hopefully, with the combined efforts of the ESA and NASA, Apophis’ passing will prepare us for any future asteroid that may head our way. Source link

There’s no doubt in my mind that a substantial amount of creative liberties were taken to make Mindhunter as compelling of a series at it could possibly be, but it’s the kernels of truth that are folded into the narrative that make it a flawless series nonetheless. Throughout Mindhunter’s two-season run, Special Agent Holden Ford becomes obsessed with learning about the mind of the nations most notorious serial killers, and he does so by interviewing the likes of Edmund Kemper (brilliantly portrayed by Cameron Britton), Charles Manson (Damon Herriman), and David Berkowitz (Olive Cooper), to name a few. Whatever artistic license was used to create fictional analogs to the real-life Special Agents depicted in Mindhunter can be forgiven because the interviews that take place in each episode ...

Currently, Glen Powell stars in the movie Twisters, released July 17th. The recently released film is a remake of the 1996 film of the same title. Counting Top Gun: Maverick this makes The Running Man Glen Powell’s third reboot project. Since each has been met with a pretty generous reception, we hope that will continue to be true for the King adaptation.  Aside from what information Glen Powell leaked about The Running Man to IndieWire, no following news has come out about the project. Since filming has not even begun, we can assume that we’ll have a bit of a wait before it hits theaters. However, hopefully, in the coming months, more inside information about The Running Man will be revealed. Many are anxious to see what other Hollywood names will share the screen with Glen Powell. So...

The Andorians have played an increasingly prominent part of the franchise since then, with Jeffrey Combs’ Shran becoming a fan-favorite member of this race on Enterprise. While the helmet designers didn’t explicitly mention this, they were most likely taking their Andorian design cues more from The Original Series than Enterprise because Discovery is meant to initially take place about 10 years before the adventures of Captain Kirk. In this way, the design was simultaneously inspired by the earliest Star Trek adventures as well as a very recognizable anime style. Source link

As it turns out, audiences were more than ready for a funny superhero film: The Lego Batman Movie earned $312 million against a budget of only $80 million. The film similarly impressed critics, as it currently has a 90 percent critical rating on Rotten Tomatoes. For the most part, critics praised the film for being as beautiful as it was funny, delivering a rare superhero film that is family-friendly and appeals to both adults and children alike. Honestly, I have to agree with the majority of critics: The Lego Batman Movie is easily a 5-star film, one that manages to perfectly parody the Dark Knight while coming from an obvious place of love. Almost every frame is filled with Easter eggs and in-jokes, but none detract from an impossibly tight script and one killer line delivery after anoth...

George Miller’s post-apocalyptic saga offers few refuges of near-civilization to its doomed characters. Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome introduces us to Bartertown, one these few heartless oases. Robbed of almost everything in the desert by a clever pilot, Max finds his way to Bartertown with only one thing to trade—death. Proving his skill in an impromptu ambush/audition, Max makes a deal with Bartertown boss Aunty Entity (Turner) to assassinate her rival Master Blaster. But Master Blaster isn’t just a man, but two men: there is the mechanical adept The Master (Angelo Rossitto) and the physically powerful man who carries him around, The Blaster (Paul Larsson). When Max comes close to accomplishing his mission but learns more about the nature of The Blaster, things go sideways between Max and ...

As Fly Me to the Moon opens, we meet Cole Davis (Tatum), the launch director at NASA in Cape Canaveral, Florida, and his deputy, Henry Smalls (Ray Romano), as Cole chases a black cat off the premises in a comical scene that focuses on the superstitions of scientists and engineers with heightened concerns over everything going right, for good reason. Cut to a scene in a Manhattan high-rise, and we meet Kelly Jones (Johansson), a gorgeous, savvy adwoman selling the Ford Mustang with seat belts to a board room full of men. She lands her pitch, and her assistant, Ruby (Anna Garcia), marvels over Kelly’s ability to sell anything to anyone.  Source link
