Month: September 2022

Norman Reedus is taking his iconic Walking Dead character Daryl over to Europe this fall for a new spinoff after the long-running show comes to an end after eleven years on the air. It was announced in 2020 that Reedus and Melissa McBride would get their own show in The Walking Dead universe, though McBride exited the series shortly after due to the fact that the production would take place in Europe.

Fans were upset about the upcoming unnamed series, though Reedus stayed cryptic about the show. When asked about how the spinoff will work without McBride, Reedus carefully responded, “How do you know she’s not gonna come back?”

Even though he won’t give any direct answers, Reedus confirms that the timing of the series had a lot to do with McBride exiting the project.

“The spinoff was announced before we even announced The Walking Dead was ending. We always thought we were doing a show that would come back to the flagship show — we’d take off, then come back to the flagship show. Then they ended the flagship show, and it was us on our own. And then we shot for a year and a half straight, through the beginning of COVID.At that point, Melissa wasn’t going to do the show. And then she was going to do show. And then she wasn’t going to do the show. And then she needed a break and I went on TV and said she needs a break.”

McBride exited the show earlier this year, and Reedus defended her against the harsh backlash. “But you don’t know she’s not going to show up on the spinoff,” he added. “She’s a very big part of Daryl’s story. It’s all gonna be OK.”

Still, fans have many questions when it comes to the upcoming show. What will it be called? Is Daryl going to die after all? And how on EARTH did he get to Europe?! The world may never know.

The final eight episodes of The Walking Dead premiere on October 2nd.

There is a lot of early-to-mid 2000s CGI that did not age well. There are the wolves in Twilight: New Moon, the baby in Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part—honestly, anything in any of the Twilight movies will do. Of course, CGI has aged well in some movies, but James Cameron was a little nervous about seeing Avatar back on the big screen.

Avatar might have come out in 2009, but the upcoming installment will hit theaters this December, over a decade after the first movie was released. Cameron recently told EW that he was unsure of how it would compare to the new movie. “I went into that screening worried that it was going to be a bit cringe-worthy relative to the new film, which looks pretty spectacular,” Cameron said after seeing the film again in theaters.

House of the Dragon may still be ruling our appointment viewing in October, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t more shows and movies worth checking out on HBO and HBO Max this month.

For instance, Mike White’s doomed resort comedy, The White Lotus, returns for a new vacation with the same old kind of problems (and problematic people) while Avenue 5 takes us back into space for a comedy of errors.

Here’s everything coming to and leaving HBO and HBO Max this month.

The White Lotus: Season 2 (HBO original premieres 10/30)

Mike White’s dark comedy about a group of privileged tourists running amuck at a Hawaiin resort left audiences wanting more when its limited run came to an end last year. So, naturally, HBO has turned it into a sort of anthology series, giving us a second season set in in Sicily, Italy, following new guests and resort employees. Although they have brought Jennifer Coolidge back, thank god.

Avenue 5: Season 2 (HBO original premieres 10/10)

This Hugh Laurie-led space comedy returns for more anti-gravity adventures. After failing to course correct last season, Laurie’s space captain must quell growing unease aboard his ship as passengers discover their eight-week cruise has turned into an eight-year voyage and their food supply might not last that long.

“Words And Guitar” is one of the loudest, most raucous, yet incredibly melodic tunes in the Sleater-Kinney discography. It takes a special talent to cover it with the vigor that can stand up to Corin Tucker’s screeching staccato, Carrie Brownstein’s lead riff and retro backing vocals, and Janet Weiss’ thunder and lightning beat. Courtney Barnett — who recently featured Sleater-Kinney on her compilation album — is an ace level choice to take on “Words And Guitar,” but in her new cover version of the 1997 tune, she’s damn near flipped it on its head.

Barnett’s cover of “Words And Guitar” is part of Sleater-Kinney’s newly-announced Dig Me In: A Dig Me Out Cover Album that celebrates the 25th anniversary of their iconic third album, which also happens to be their best-selling release of all-time. Due out on October 21st and also serving as a benefit for Portland’s LGBTQIA+ youth center, SMYRC, the album features covers by St. Vincent, Wilco, Jason Isbell, and more in addition to Barnett.

If Barnett’s version sounds quite a bit different from the original, there’s a reason for that: “The artists who appear on Dig Me In have not so much covered the 13 original songs, but reinterpreted and reimagined them,” Sleater-Kinney said in a statement. “Through added layers or the subtraction of guitars and drums, they provide a new way into the songs. Fresh rage, joy, pain, reclamation, slyness, and longing. Other interpretations slow down or stretch out the songs, trading urgency for contemplation, weariness or even a hint of ease.”

Listen to Barnett’s cover of “Words And Guitar” above and check out the album artwork and tracklist for Dig Me In: A Dig Me Out Cover Album below.

1. St. Vincent — “Dig Me Out”
2. Wilco — “One More Hour”
3. Margo Price — “Turn It On”
4. Tunde Adebimpe — “The Drama You’ve Been Craving”
5. Self Esteem — “Heart Factory”
6. Courtney Barnett — “Words And Guitar”
7. Black Belt Eagle Scout — “It’s Enough”
8. The Linda Lindas — “Little Babies”
9. Jason Isbell and Amanda Shires — “Not What You Want”
10. Tyler Cole — “Buy Her Candy”
11. Big Joanie — “Things You Say”
12. Low- – “Dance Song ’97”
13. Nnamdï — “Jenny”

Dig Me In: A Dig Me Out Cover Album is out on 10/21. Pre-order it here.

House of the Dragon is serious. It is an HBO drama, holding the coveted Sunday night 9pm eastern slot. The cast includes some of Britain’s best thespians who didn’t appear on Game of Thrones. The show also includes battles and dragons, dragons more intricately designed and meticulously detailed than the three dragons we saw on Game of Thrones. Because of the dragons and a lot of other things, House of the Dragon costs a serious amount of money.

So far, the first season of the series has boomeranged between serious fantasy family drama and absolute chaos. In the fifth episode, “We Light the Way,” which adds to the canon of Westeros Weddings Gone Wrong, it embraces the melodrama and the chaos and fully transforms into a very expensive soap opera.

House of the Dragon gleefully accepts its melodramatic core during a feast to kick off Princess Rhaenyra’s wedding to Laenor Velaryon. The scene starts off normally – normal for a wedding feast in Westeros, at least. The royal family, minus the missing queen, sit at a table while lords of Westeros who wish they were the ones marrying Rhaenyra suck up to her and congratulate her.

In the midst of this, Daemon Targaryen, who is not exactly on good terms with anyone in the room as a result of his kinky night on the town with his niece in episode four, arrives at the feast late and uninvited. King Viserys’ speech is interrupted by the late arrival of his wife, Queen Alicent Hightower. Daemon is accused of murdering his wife. Rhaenyra and Daemon have a tense conversation on the dance floor but also maybe make out. Rhaenyra’s paramour Criston Cole gets into a fight with her future husband’s paramour, killing him. And all along, King Viserys is secretly suffering from his ongoing health problems and just trying to eat in peace.

Rather than one shocking wedding event like the massacre of the Starks at the Red Wedding or the poisoning of King Joffrey at the Purple Wedding, this wedding is drama after drama with no breathing room for the characters or the audience. The episode combines the awkward family drama and love triangles reminiscent of a teen soap like Gossip Girl (the original) with the uncomfortable, nonstop anxious energy of Uncut Gems. Or, really, any Safdie Brothers film.

Comparing House of the Dragon to a campy soap might sound like an insult, but this is the best possible outcome for the Game of Thrones spin-off. Rather than making things complicated, the series is absorbing itself in melodramatic chaos and as a result, makes Westeros fun. Essentially, House of the Dragon is a Game of Thrones show for people who want to understand what they’re watching but don’t have the energy to inadvertently peruse the A Song of Ice and Fire Wikipedia until 2 am trying to figure out who everyone is, where everyone is, and who is related to whom.

The series could have gone the self-serious route – it has already and it likely will again – but having the audacity so early in the series to have some fun and be a little dumb already makes it more subversive than its subversion-obsessed predecessor.

What a year it’s been for the Jackass boys (and Rachel Wolfson).

Jackass Forever was the second best theatrical experience of the year after Top Gun: Maverick; director Jeff Tremaine is working on a documentary about 30 years of “wrongdoing and debauchery” at Walt Disney World; and to cap things off, most of the crew — minus Steve-O — reunited on the Celebrity Family Feud season finale.

In one corner, you had Team Tremaine: Jeff Tremaine, Chris Pontius, Wee Man (who Harvey affectionally referred to as “my man”), Compston “Dark Shark” Wilson, Eric “Butterbean” Esch, and Zach Holmes. In the other, Team Knoxville: Johnny Knoxville, Danger Ehren, Preston Lacy, Jasper Dolphin, Dave England, and Rachel Wolfson. It was chaos. Beautiful, beautiful chaos.

Knoxville, wearing the same suit as the immaculately-dressed host, tasered his own teammates; England grossed the audience out by replying to “tell me something you’d hate to have happen while you’re making love in an airplane bathroom” with “you accidentally went number two in the wrong direction” (it’s a good answer); and Harvey, who was equal parts delighted and confused, made this face at the end of the episode.

I won’t spoil who won the game, but in a way, we’re all winners.

You can watch more Celebrity Family Feud clips with the Jackass crew below:

Bob Dylan’s The Philosophy Of Modern Song is set to be an audiobook, with the superstar lineup of readers just getting confirmed by Variety. Actors including Steve Buscemi and Helen Mirren will be among the famous voices reading on Dylan’s upcoming essay collection. Other notable stars reading will be Oscar Isaac, Sissy Spacek, Rita Moreno, John Goodman, Jeff Bridges, Renée Zellweger, Alfre Woodard, and Jeffrey Wright.

Dylan’s book is being released on November 1. It will include essay pieces about 66 songs that Dylan himself considers exceptional examples of songwriting, with picks from legendary artists like Jimmy Reed, Willie Nelson, Little Richard, Nina Simone, Elvis Costello and Townes Van Zandt. Dylan himself will also be reading throughout the audiobook version. In addition to Audible, readers can listen on Google Play, Apple Books, and other audiobook companies.

According to the book’s official website page, it will find Dylan as “he analyzes what he calls the trap of easy rhymes, breaks down how the addition of a single syllable can diminish a song, and even explains how bluegrass relates to heavy metal.”

“These essays are written in Dylan’s unique prose,” it notes. “They are mysterious and mercurial, poignant and profound, and often laugh-out-loud funny. And while they are ostensibly about music, they are really meditations and reflections on the human condition.”

Bob Dylan’s The Philosophy Of Modern Song is out 11/01 via Simon and Schuster and available for pre-order here.

Ted Cruz is a slippery little man. Back on September 12, he did an interview with KAMC, an ABC affiliate based in Lubbock, Texas, where he celebrated the government actually doing something: passing the Ports-to-Plains Highway Act, a new highway project that Cruz boasted would bring millions of dollars and new jobs to Texas.

For weeks, Cruz has been patting himself on the back about getting bipartisan support for this bill, which he sponsored. But earlier this week, as The Guardian reported, we learned that Cruz had actually voted against his own bill — the one he’s been going on and on about — a fact made public by the White House Twitter account, which brilliantly trolled the Texas senator.

Ryan Chandler, the anchor seen in the clip that Cruz had originally tweeted, joined the chorus when he shared additional footage from his interview — footage that Teddy, for some reason, decided to leave out.

Following Cruz’s little victory lap, Chandler, who had clearly done his homework, asked the senator why he would shepherd a bill and then “vote against the actual legislation that put it into law?” Cruz had a response ready, which basically amounted to: Shit happens!

“Well, listen, that happens frequently in the United States Senate,” Cruz Senate-splained. “Where you end up working to get agreement and to pass a particular piece of legislation. But then it gets rolled into a giant bill that has a whole bunch of good things and bad things. For a decade now, there have been dozens of different pieces of legislation that I wrote, that I got support for, that I got passed into law. But the ultimate vehicle that they got stuck into had other elements that were bad and wasteful and didn’t make sense.” Sort of like, well, Ted Cruz.

This afternoon (September 23), Grimes shared a new selfie. This comes a few days after the photo of herself seemingly in a post-surgery state. The primary interpretation of that was Grimes went ahead and had her ears surgically modified to be more elf-like, as she has recently said she’d like to do. Assuming the latest photo was taken after the bandaged one, though, it’s clear that Grimes has not yet actually gotten elf ears. She does seem to be planning a different facial modification in the near future, though.

Alongside the new photo, Grimes wrote, “R selfies obsolete yet? I am very seriously considering getting a white ink tattoo on my face next week. Any thoughts? It feels like it’s time.”

Somebody asked Grimes what she has in mind in terms of a design and it doesn’t seem like she’s sure yet, as Grimes responded, “I don’t know my friend who does tats is just coming here so I want to take advantage.” She added in response to a different tweet, “What tho? Is moon way too basic? Don’t wanna seem@too hippy ish.” Somebody else suggested Grimes look into Nordic symbols and she replied, “Where can I find such things ? Or good resources ? Yeh have been thinking either some ancient languages or fictional language.”

Grimes wouldn’t be the first musician to get a face tattoo this year, as Cardi B recently showed off one she got on her jaw.

Cardi B is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Glorilla is generating major buzz today (September 23) for “Tomorrow 2,” her remix track with Cardi B that had been teased since Wednesday. “Poppin’ sh*t, you would think I went to school for chiropractin’,” the CMG signee raps on the first verse. Glorilla returned to her actual former high school on Thursday (September 22) and she didn’t show up empty-handed.

“God has been so good to me,” Glorilla captioned an Instagram video showing her unveiling a check for $25,000 for Martin Luther King College Preparatory High School. “Blessing me back to back so I decided to be a blessing to the students from my alma mater Mlk preparatory high school in Memphis, TN. FRAYSER BABY 4L.”

According to Billboard, the funds will be dedicated to the fine arts program, and Glorilla treated the excited students to a performance of her breakthrough single “F.N.F.”

Glorilla was signed to CMG Records by Yo Gotti in July after the success of “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)” with Hitkidd. “Tomorrow” arrived in mid-July as part of CMG’s compilation project Gangsta Art. Glorilla’s original single blew up to the tune of over 11 million YouTube views and 2.6 Spotify streams. The Cardi-assisted “Tomorrow 2” figures to cast an even wider net of influence.

Glorilla’s philanthropic trip back home comes just over a week after Cardi visited her former middle school and donated $100,000 toward arts education and after-school programs.
