Trump: I’m very proud of the job he’s done. What he’s done is incredible in terms of human rights.

You might not have caught what just happened on the Senate floor, but the Senate just “deemed as passed” the Epstein resolution.

That means as soon as it arrives from the House, it automatically passes the Senate (with no amendments) and heads to the President’s desk.

Wow.

NEW PODCAST! Any Given Sunday

We had a good chat about a chaotic movie that has way too many recognizable people in it. Plus the return of Ving Rhames to the show!

Jon Watts tells Variety that he’s ready to make #SkeletonCrew Season Two:

“I mean, I love ‘Star Wars.’ I’d love to do anything in the ‘Star Wars’ universe and I think we set it up in a way where the story can continue in a lot of interesting ways.”

Alden Ehrenreich is about to turn 36. Now he’s a young looking 36. He can still play Han Solo no problem.

But, that window is closing and if Disney really blocks a return of him as Han Solo, that likely puts an end to any future live-action Han Solo.

No new episode of TRB this week.

We both have school-aged kids and with that comes getting sick! 🤧

But worry not, we will be back next week to talk STAR WARS!

Watching Home Alone 2

Plaza Hotel owner at the time, Donald Trump, insisted on appearing in the movie. Three years later he sold the Plaza to Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal and Singapore's CDL Hotels International for a loss of $55 million.

@laceygilleran.bsky.social thinks I am Statler and Waldorf because I am not excited about a new Miss Piggy movie, mainly because the Muppets just don't feel the same anymore, for obvious reasons. BUT we still have a good time talking about it!
New #NerdyNicePod episode tomorrow! 🤓 Brendan Fraser is returning for THE MUMMY sequel, Kpop Demon Hunters 2 details, and as you can see here, Lacey and John are VERY split on the Miss Piggy movie news!

If they keep making Jurassic movies, people will continue to see them because VFX & sound are incredible.

Ironically, the way dinosaurs are casually treated in society in the latest movie is how I feel about these new ones. The awe and wonderment are gone, they’re just here now.
‘Jurassic World 5’ is reportedly in the works 🦖

Gareth Edwards is in final negotiations to direct

How to successfully survive watching new SCREAM movies. Expect absurd killer reveals and it being the worst movie in the franchise.

They're pulling out all the stops here, cameo bonanza, flashbacks, whatever gets the nostalgia going. But I'm going in with basement level hopes.
NEW EPISODE! Let's talk #Scream7 and #StrangerThings5 trailers, John Williams' 30th movie with Spielberg, and reviews of the Chad Powers finale and The Woman in Cabin 10. That and more nerdy fun to cure the Monday blues!

This isn’t a game. Some middle class families in Connecticut are going to get a $25,000 increase in health care premiums in a week. Democrats shouldn’t support a budget that does that to people - just as a means to pay for a giant tax cut for billionaires and corporations.

As Trump tears down the iconic East Wing to build his monstrous ballroom, I want to know all the facts about donors supposedly footing the bill. Many have merger reviews, litigation or other special interests pending where the Administration could help or look the other way.

If I found out Lucasfilm approved, greenlit, and budgeted a SOLO sequel and Bob Iger rejected it, I would be genuinely crushed. So if that happened or happens, please don’t tell me.

#TheHuntForBenSolo excites me. And the fact it was ready to go and execs killed it, this story keeps getting worse.

TRB detectives are on the case! Let me see that group chat! #TheHuntForBenSolo
Wait a second… the writer of Adam Driver’s #TheHuntForBenSolo and the writer of the upcoming Rey Skywalker movie worked together on The Bourne Ultimatum?👀🤯

Yeah, we might’ve just uncovered the most unexpected Star Wars writer group chat in Hollywood.
