Eminem and Snoop Dogg have joined forces for a bicoastal new song, “From the D 2 the LBC.” The fast-talking single arrived with a music video directed by James Larese, which switches between live footage of the rappers and an animated world where they transform into Bored Ape-looking avatars. The rappers shout out their respective hometowns on the track, apparently putting to rest any territorial beef. “Put your doobies high if you reside in 213, let’s see them blunts raised,” they rap. “Whether you east side or west side of the 313, let’s see them guns blaze.” The single follows Eminem and Snoop’s collaboration earlier year at the Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show . The star-studded performance brought the pair together alongside Dr. Dre , Mary J. Blige, and Kendrick Lamar. It’s also Eminem’s second new song this month: The rapper recently reimagined Elvis Presley ’s “Jailhouse Rock” in the new soundtrack single from Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis film. The song, “The King and … [Read more...] about Eminem, Snoop Dogg Team Up for Surprise Single ‘From the D 2 the LBC’

‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’ Was Stuck in Star Wars’ Past. Here’s How ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Does It Better
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 ? Which stoic group of people is more compelling: the mystical Jedi knights, or the logic-driven Vulcan race? Is Jim Kirk a more charming rascal than Han Solo? And on and on and on. 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.

‘The Janes’ And ‘Reversing Roe’ Directors On Supreme Court’s Roe V. Wade Ruling And What The Future Holds: “Just The Tip Of The Iceberg”
EXCLUSIVE: Filmmakers Ricki Stern and Anne Lundberg have seen this day coming. For a long time. Their 2108 Netflix documentary Reversing Roe examined how right-wing activists, politicians and jurists were steadily chipping away at abortion rights across the country, with the goal of eventually overturning Roe v. Wade. Today it happened, in a 6-3 Supreme Court decision that tossed out Roe, permitting states to ban or severely restrict abortion. “I think there was no surprise,” Stern said in an interview with Deadline after the ruling was announced. She said she felt “just absolute sadness and just despair, truly, because it’s the beginning of many, many kinds of Supreme Court decisions that, personally, I think are going to set us back. And as the film illustrates, this is a very politically charged issue, abortion rights. This is really about power and [ignores] the lives of many women who are going to be hurt by this decision.” The new HBO documentary The … [Read more...] about ‘The Janes’ And ‘Reversing Roe’ Directors On Supreme Court’s Roe V.

Boston Red Sox’s Head Groundskeeper’s Famous Dog, Drago, Dies, Fenway Park Staple
Getty Awful news out of Red Sox nation ... Drago -- the German Shepherd who became famous for roaming the field at Fenway Park over the past few years -- has died at 10 years old. The pup's owner, Red Sox head groundskeeper Dave Mellor , mourned the passing in a message to the Associated Press this week. "I was blessed he was in my life as he saved my life, changed my life, inspired me, and gave hope to my life in ways I hadn’t had in decades and didn’t know were possible,” Mellor said. "I am absolutely heartbroken." Getty Mellor, a die-hard Red Sox fan and a former star high school pitching prospect, got Drago back in 2014 in order to help deal with the PTSD he was suffering from after he was involved in two horrific car crashes earlier in his life. The two quickly became inseparable -- and Drago soon joined Mellor at his job tending to the grounds at Fenway Park, where the dog quickly became beloved by Red Sox players, staffers and … [Read more...] about Boston Red Sox’s Head Groundskeeper’s Famous Dog, Drago, Dies, Fenway Park Staple
