Dame Diana Rigg, the Avenger Who Became the Queen of Thorns, Has Died at 82

To look at actress Dame Diana Rigg’s filmography is to look back at a lifetime of performances defined by a person’s singular panache and talent for slipping so deeply into a wide bevvy of roles, that each time she stepped onto screen, you could scarcely believe that the same person had inhabited so many different…

When Star Trek: Lower Decks was first announced, the elevator pitch was essentially “people on an unimportant Starfleet ship being comically bad at their jobs.” And while its heroes have done plenty of mucking up (about as much as any Starfleet officer we’ve met on screen does, really), Lower Decks so far has introduced a crew…

The Gorillaz Go to the Moon

The Gorillaz obviously have a penchant for pop culture. The fact that the band’s members primarily like to be seen as animated characters should have tipped that off. In their latest music video, though, things go a step further. Well, maybe more than one step. “Strange Timez” is the name of the latest track and…

Rey’s Parentage Was Up in the Air Until The Rise of Skywalker Entered Production

It seems that director JJ Abrams knew Rey had to be descended from someone important in Star Wars, he just didn’t know who.
