Foxx was already an underground comedy legend when Cleavon Little, best known for his role as Sheriff Bart in Mel Brooks’ Blazing Saddles, suggested him for the lead in the mid-season replacement. Little wasn’t available, but worked with Foxx on Ossie Davis’s 1970 neo-noir film Cotton Comes to Harlem. Before Foxx played the junk dealer stuck with the bale of genuine Mississippi cotton, he was known as the “King of the Party Records....

Created by Tony Basgallop, season one introduced the story of Dorothy (Lauren Ambrose) and Sean (Toby Kebbell) Turner, who, after the death of their infant son Jericho, replace the baby with a life-like doll to help Dorothy with the grieving process. They even hire a nanny, Leanne (Nell Tiger Free), to maintain the illusion, until one day, in place of the doll is a real baby boy. Is it the reincarnation of the Turners’ child?...

There’s a terrific little scene at the end of Episode 3 of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law when Jennifer Walters, aka She-Hulk (Tatiana Maslany), is walking through a deserted parking lot at night and is suddenly attacked by a quartet of extremely rough-looking customers. It’s a scenario that every woman dreads, and Jen’s own reaction at first is one of fear – until she realizes that she is now in a position to handle this kind of attack in a way that we imagine anybody, man or woman, would want to: she Hulks out and makes short work of her attackers, sending them scurrying back into the darkness and licking their wounds rather than absconding with a sample of their victim’s gamma-radiated blood, which was apparently their goal....

“An evil too great to play on just one network,” reads the tagline in the new teaser trailer for Chucky, which hypes a series designed for a deluge of doll-dealt deaths, set for a dual network run—under the NBCUniversal umbrella—this fall on USA Network and Syfy. Surprisingly enough, Mancini openly expresses, in an interview with EW, that said evil might even be too great to play on just one medium, since the creator is already envisioning a multimedia continuity centered around his terrifying toy with a possible complementary continuation of the Child’s Play movies....

After five seasons, Uhtred’s cry of “To Bebbanburg!” is finally a toast and not a direction of travel. He’s made it back. Every twist of fate over the years that took him further from his childhood fortress was leading to this moment – when his destiny and that of the Wessex throne would become one and the same. Now he has a home for his children, a stronghold for his people, and a future....

Rodney Ascher’s superb 2012 documentary Room 237 pulled together some of the more outlandish theories about The Shining. It’s Kubrick’s veiled confession that he helped NASA fake the 1969 Moon landings, goes one line of thinking. No, it’s an allusion to the horrors of World War II and the Holocaust, says a different theorist. Wrong again, another voice suggests: it’s a retelling of the Minotaur myth. Often these theories are based on incidental background details – a home-knit Apollo 11 jumper, the specific make of a typewriter, a tin of baking powder, a poster that looks a bit like a mythical beast if you squint hard enough....

We saw this start to happen in The Mandalorian season 2, which not only introduced beloved animated characters Ahsoka Tano and Bo-Katan Kryze to live-action but also ended with a teaser for the next Star Wars series, The Book of Boba Fett, which arrives in December. The Book of Boba Fett doesn’t just star the infamous bounty hunter; it’s also a showcase for Ming-Na Wen’s Fennec Shand, an assassin who debuted in the first season of The Mandalorian....

This happens when your home screen is filled with all kinds of apps, especially if you’re using an iPhone that has a higher storage capacity. It’s natural to utilize that but it also comes with the fact that your interface becomes cluttered. Personally, I like to keep my home screen organized by usually hiding some of the apps that I don’t use very often. This can help you become more productive by keeping a clean home screen that only has the most important apps on the forefront....

The systemd process replaces the SysV init. It runs as the first process after the kernel boot and is responsible for bringing the Linux host up to the state where it can be used. It is responsible for starting and managing the services, mounting filesystems, managing hardware, generating the login prompt, and much more. A key benefit over SysV is that systemd starts as many services as possible in parallel, thus speeding up the startup process, and that brings up the login screen faster....

.pages is Apple’s offering like its .doc from Microsoft. It’s the default format to create, edit, and save documents on macOS. And many mac users prefer to use it than pay for the mac version of MS office (yeah, there’s one!). But things become unfriendly when you try to use (or see) the Pages files on your Windows PC. Or worse, send it to someone (and there are many) without a mac....

But she might just have picked the wrong mark. Tipped off by her corrupt doctor mate Dr. Amos (Alicia Witt), Marla targets a woman called Jennifer Peterson (Dianne Wiest), a very independent person who appears to have loads of money and no family at all – a ‘cherry’ as Marla and Amos call her. Big mistake. Jennifer isn’t who Marla thinks she is and now she’s incurred the wrath of her son Roman, played by Peter Dinklage....

J Blakeson’s I Care a Lot is one of very few films where everyone in it is a villain. In the lead role, Rosamund Pike ushers in a new amoral high mark as conservator con artist Marla Grayson. Peter Dinklage meanwhile mines the standard Hollywood heavy role for an unexpected haul of gangster gravitas. And with his turn as Roman Lunyov, the former black sheep of the Lannister family in Game of Thrones joins the likes of Robert De Niro, Marlon Brando, Wesley Snipes, and Humphrey Bogart as memorable cinema crime bosses....

And just like that it’s over. After seven years and 22 movies the DC Animated Movie Universe has come to an end. Justice League Dark: Apokolips War has the unenviable task of wrapping up multiple threads and acting as a sort-of-sequel to some of the DC Animated Movie Universe’s biggest hits. The R-rated action romp succeeds at crafting a satisfying end and makes an unexpected hero out of one of the most famed anti-heroes in Hell and Earth, John Constantine....
