This post contains spoilers for the whole first season of Obi-Wan Kenobi (now streaming on Disney+ ) and the season to date of Star Trek : Strange New Worlds (now streaming on Paramount+ ). There’s plenty of overlap between the audiences for Star Wars and Star Trek , yet for decades the two fan bases have been pitted against each other like reluctant gladiators dropped into an arena (whether the one where a shirtless Captain Kirk fought in “The Gamesters of Triskelion” or the one where Padme Amidala got her midriff exposed in Attack of the Clones ). Which is superior, they have argued: the action-adventure bent of Star Wars or the more philosophical science fiction of Star Trek ?

This spring saw the arrival of new streaming series from both franchises — Obi-Wan Kenobi and … [Read more...] about ‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’ Was Stuck in Star Wars’ Past.

TMZ Composite David Spade seems moved by the Burger King employee who got a mediocre goodie bag in recognition of 27 years without missing work ... giving him money and making him laugh. Kevin Ford , who went viral this week after showing off his company gifts , tells TMZ ... his daughter let him know someone named David Spade donated $5,000 to his GoFundMe , but he wasn't sure it was the comedian himself, until he checked his Instagram inbox.

Because it takes … [Read more...] about Respectful Global Teams: Lessons From Expatriating

Getty Amber Heard is now officially on the hook for $8.35 million, and she could be on the hook for even more if she appeals the defamation verdict.

The judge Friday officially entered the judgment into the court record, and there's a string attached if Amber decides to go forward with an appeal. The judge said if Amber appeals she must post a bond in the full amount of Johnny's judgment PLUS 6% -- that's an additional $621k.
