Kit Harington Comments On ‘The Eternals’ Release Date Delay

It’s the only time they’ve said vocally that they’re proud of me. It’s the only time! My dad got socks with my shirtless body on it. I had aunts texting me like, ‘We’re so proud of you! You’ve worked so hard!’

If you’d like to see the socks that Kumail Nanjiani’s dad made, you can check them out in the video below at the 0:14 mark.

The Eternals star continued by discussing how getting and maintaining his new body has been tons of hard work.

“The hard thing is, it’s not like a video game where you just hit save and then it’s done. It’s every day. You have to keep doing it! What have I gotten myself into?”

What Kumail Nanjiani has done with his body is nothing short of impressive and it’s great that this interview highlights just how playful his dad is with the whole ordeal. Nanjiani’s dad isn’t the only one who is having fun with the body transformation as even PornHub decided to give The Eternals star 10 years worth of premium content. All in all, Nanjiani seems to be having a blast with how his new body is being received by fans.

‘Star Wars’ Stormtroopers Are Now Enforcing Social Distancing at Disney World’s Shops

Even though Disney World in Orlando, Florida isn’t slated to reopen until July, the Disney Springs collection of shops and restaurants is back up and running. However, there are still social distancing policies in place, and in order to make sure guests adhere to the guidelines set by the Disney theme park locale, they’ve brought in First Order Stormtroopers to make sure people are keeping their distance from each other by way of some playful banter and crowd interaction.

Stormtropers Enforcing Social Distancing

Keeping a safe distance away from guests by standing atop a balcony, a male and a female Stormtrooper banter back and forth about their current job and also doing a little bickering about keeping their distance from each other.

The female Stormtrooper is not too happy with her current assignment since she’s usually working on Star Destroyers, guarding flight decks and whatnot. But they look down among the crowd, telling them to move along and comparing them to banthas, the hairy creatures that Tusken Raiders (AKA sand people) are known to ride. When the male Stormtrooper offers some fun facts about banthas, the female responds, “Yeah, I’m going to need you to move one male bantha’s length away, please.”

The bumbling nature of Stortmroopers is played up to as one of them tries to show the other how to be more authoritative. The male trooper says, “Hey, you! With the face covering!” That prompts the female trooper to chastise him by saying, “They all have face coverings.”The male responds, “Well, we made them all look,” and the female backs him up with, “And now they all know who’s in charge.”

The Stormtroopers also try out different renditions of saying, “Move along,” talk about finding a Resistance spy among the crowd, and say that the face coverings on guests might be nicer than the helmets they’re wearing.

It’s all in good fun, but one can’t help but think about the optics of this setup. Even though the banter between the Stormtroopers is lighthearted, they’re also part of an oppressive regime that is trying to control the galaxy. It’s like making a police state environment playful and fun. And considering everything that’s going on with our own police in the United States right now, maybe turning the galactic equivalent of cops into family friendly comedy bit isn’t the best idea right now. But Stormtroopers are already situated around Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge and playfully hassle guests from time to time, so this is probably something we’ll see more of when Disney World reopens next month.

Trailer For an Interesting Indie Sci-Fi Thriller Titled VOLITION

We’ve got a trailer here for you to watch for an interesting looking indie sci-fi thriller titledVolition. The movie actually won the Best Feature award at the Philip K. Dick Film Festival last year.

The movie is described as a "tightly-wound puzzle of a ride," and a "mind-bending science-fiction thriller, where the line between fate and free-will blurs." This is the synopsis that was shared:

In this time-bending cerebral science-fiction thriller, a man named James Odin (Adrian Glynn McMorran) afflicted with clairvoyance tries to change his fate when a series of events leads to a vision of his own imminent murder.

The movie was directed by Tony Dean Smith (The Other Side of Being), and it stars Adrian Glynn McMorran, Magda Apanowicz, John Cassini, Frank Cassini, Aleks Paunovic, and Bill Marchant. As you’ll see, there’s a lot going in the trailer, and it’s hard to make sense of what’s going on, but I’ll give it a shot.

Justice League Zack Snyder's Doesn't 'Exist' Yet, Will Cost Way More Than Expected

It turns out WarnerMedia is eager to dish out much more to #ReleaseTheSnyderCut than we recently suspected. It was affirmed a week ago that Zack Snyder's Justice League will surely be showing up on HBO Max at some point one year from now. It will cost millions to breath life into the executive's vision. Presently, as uncovered by WarnerMedia executive Bob Greenblatt, that figure is going to overshadow $30 million.

At the point when updates on the Snyder Cut authoritatively being discharged poor, it was accounted for that the undertaking was going to cost somewhere in the range of $20 and $30 million. As of late, Bob Greenblatt showed up on the Record Media webcast to talk about the up and coming dispatch of HBO Max, WarnerMedia's new gushing assistance that shows up this week. Normally, the subject of Justice League came up and Greenblatt shed some light on the venture, explicitly the expense. This is what he needed to state about it.

"It isn't as easy as going into the vault and there's a Snyder Cut sitting there to put out. It does not exist. Zack is actually building it and it's complex including...new VFX shots, it's a radical rethinking of that movie and it's complicated and wildly expensive... I'll just say I wish it was just 30 million and stop there. It's an enormous undertaking and very complex."

There are several things worth analyzing here. Most importantly, the way that the studio is spending more than $30 million is telling. Equity League, with no guarantees, is said to have cost $300 million, given the broad revises and reshoots Joss Whedon managed in front of the showy discharge. Since the film earned a generally disillusioning $657 million at the worldwide film industry, the studio lost cash on it. Any extra speculation is going to put them further in the red, and that is an incredible venture.

The other point here is that Greenblatt says the Zack Snyder "doesn't exist." It is something that has been underscored and alluded to firmly from the individuals who took a shot at Justice League, however it bears rehashing. The legendary cut that Zack Snyder screened for officials was a gathering cut. It was not, by any definition, a completed film. It was never going to be as straightforward as Warner Bros. giving Snyder the green light to discharge his variant. Broad work should be done before the cut we have heard such a great amount about can be viewed as releasable.

As of now, Zack Snyder and his group are working diligently finishing the broad special visualizations work expected to prepare the cut. The cast has likewise been reached to do any extra voiceover work that might be required. Notwithstanding, it has been accounted for that no reshoots will occur, regardless of Snyder's craving to do some extra photography. We'll make certain to update you as often as possible as further subtleties are made accessible. For additional with Bob Greenblatt, don't hesitate to look at the most recent scene of the Recode Media digital broadcast from Vox.
