Roland Emmerich's Those About to Die is an enjoyable, exciting, and emotional watch, exploring how the Roman Emperors used entertainment to distract the populace. But, it's equally frustrating and under-developed, undeserving of multiple re-watches.

Quentin Tarantino's depiction of Bruce Lee in Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood drew criticism, not just from Bruce Lee's fans but also from the entire nation of China. China refused to give the movie a certificate for screening unless Tarantino edited out the scenes including Lee. Tarantino refused to edit the final cut for international release.

Marshawn Lynch was initially worried about taking the role in Bottoms. However, he ultimately decided to work on the film to make up for how he handled his younger sister coming out to him during High School. He also improvised most of his lines in the movie.

The Boys' fourth Season is a mostly strong return for Prime Video's hit series. The character development is excellent and Homelander is terrifying as always. But the series loses its teeth through its overtly absurd satire of America's political divide.

Surprisingly, Steve Carrell wasn't the first choice to play Brick Tamland in Anchorman. When the script was being written, the character was drafted with Chris Parnell in mind to play Brick. James Spader was also considered for the role at one point.
