  7. And rightfully so... These "award" shows are supposed to celebrate them, but De Niro has so much hatred for Donald Trump, he can't help himself... https://ew.com/robert-de-niro-reads-censored-speech-gotham-awards-8407247 Robert De Niro may be an actor, but unless you're a screenwriter, you probably don't want to put words into his mouth. Or take them out of his mouth, for that matter. At the Gotham Awards tonight, De Niro was accepting the Gotham Historical Icon and Creator Tribute award on behalf of Killers of the Flower Moon, when he noticed a sizable chunk of his speech had been omitted from the teleprompter. That's when he went back and read his original speech off of his phone. “I just want to say one thing,” De Niro said. “The beginning of my speech was edited, cut out, and I didn’t know about it. And I want to read it." He continued, "History isn’t history anymore. Truth is not truth. Even facts are being replaced by alternative facts and driven by conspiracy theories and ugliness. In Florida, young students are taught that slaves were taught skills that could be applied for their personal benefit." De Niro went on to reference a quote from John Wayne about "taking this great country away from" Native Americans and rebuking former President Trump for lying "to us more than 30,000 times during his four years in office. And he’s keeping up the pace in his current campaign of retribution." Noting after that was where his speech on the prompter kicked in, De Niro expressed his anger at being censored. “So I’m going to say these things but to Apple and thank them and all that,” De Niro said. “Gotham, blah blah blah, but I don’t really feel like thanking them at all for what they did. How dare they do that, actually. But now I will go to accepting the award." Apple and the Gotham Awards did not immediately respond to EW's request for comment.

    Spinal Tap 11

    I doubt it... It really depends on how much Reiner and the Spinal Tap crew aren't extreme lefties and have it come out in the script... Hopefully they can put that aside and just make a funny movie, but I have my doubts... When "History of the World Part II" came out, since Brooks didn't write everything and got a lot of new writers and current "comedians" to write it, it turned out just awful...

    NCAA Hoops '23-'24

    UConn's Azzi Fudd out for season with torn ACL, meniscus https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/38959357/uconn-azzi-fudd-season-torn-acl-meniscus UConn guard Azzi Fudd will miss the remainder of the 2023-24 season after suffering ACL and medial meniscal tears in her right knee, the team announced Wednesday. Fudd suffered the noncontact injury last week in practice when, according to coach Geno Auriemma, she went up for a shot and afterward remarked that it felt funny. She missed No. 6 UConn's past two games against Maryland and Minnesota, both wins, watching from the bench. "We're all just so upset for Azzi," Auriemma said in a statement. "She worked hard to be healthy for this season, and it's unfortunate when you put in a lot of hard work and have a setback like this. Azzi loves the game and works tirelessly. I'm confident she'll rehab with the same work ethic and come back better than ever. We'll obviously miss her presence on the court, but Azzi will continue to be a great teammate and important part of this team this season. Our program will support Azzi through her recovery however we can." Fudd, a junior, will have surgery at UConn Health at a later date, the school said. Although she would be age-eligible for the WNBA draft next year, Fudd told ESPN's Rebecca Lobo before she was injured that she planned to return to UConn for the 2024-25 season. The tears are the latest injury for the No. 1 recruit from the Class of 2021 and former Gatorade National Player of the Year. She missed 11 games as a freshman because of foot issues before being sidelined for all but 15 games her sophomore season because of right knee injuries. Fudd returned in time for the postseason, where the Huskies were upset in the Sweet 16, snapping their streak of 14 consecutive Final Four appearances. Fudd tore the ACL and MCL in her right knee in April 2019. She is the second UConn player to tear her ACL over the past 15 months, following Paige Bueckers' August 2022 injury that caused her to miss the 2022-23 season. Redshirt freshman center Jana El Alfy is also out for the season after her Achilles ruptured in July. Expectations were high internally and externally that Fudd, who has averaged 13.1 points in 42 games in Storrs, would have her most impactful season yet while playing alongside Bueckers. But the pair of highly regarded recruits will have played only 17 games together over three seasons because of injuries. "We've always handled [injuries] really, really, really well," Auriemma said last week when asked about the potential of Fudd's long-term absence. "We've always been pretty resilient. For us to win 31 games last year, given what we went through, they respond, they don't pout. They really don't. "So when I said, 'Hey, we're just going to have to figure this one out,' it changes your rotation obviously, it changes maybe the way you want to play. It certainly changes your offense." Added Bueckers: "Nobody's going to be Azzi, but we can all do stuff that contributes to filling her void and making sure that we're accounting for her and doing all the little things." UConn has two strong nonconference matchups this week against No. 2 UCLA on Friday and reigning WNIT champion Kansas on Saturday as part of the Cayman Islands Classic. --------------------- Wow, what a disaster for her... Hopefully she can come back healthy from this...

    Question: I’m Now A Grandpa

    Is this your first grandchild? I would let the child call you what they want… What if you want something like Grandpap, but they end up calling you something like Papi…. Would you complain and push for the choice or go with what they said…

    Beverly Hills Cop 4...

    Beverly Hills Cop 4: Eddie Murphy’s Axel Foley Is Back in First Look at Netflix Sequel https://tvline.com/news/beverly-hills-cop-4-eddie-murphy-axel-foley-netflix-2024-release-date-photo-1235083785/ Axel Foley is back on active duty in a newly released photo from Beverly Hills Cop 4. Netflix on Tuesday offered a first look at Eddie Murphy, 62, reprising his iconic role nearly 30 years after the release of Beverly Hills Cop III. As previously reported, Murphy will be joined by fellow returnees Judge Reinhold, John Ashton, Paul Reiser and Bronson Pinchot in Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley, which is set for release in 2024. Per Empire Magazine, franchise newcomers include Kevin Bacon as an LAPD special-unit officer, Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Foley’s new partner, and Taylour Paige (Hit the Floor) as Foley’s criminal defense attorney daughter. The original Beverly Hills Cop followed Murphy’s rule-bending Detroit police detective as he ventured to Los Angeles to investigate the murder of a longtime friend. It went to gross $234 million at the U.S. box office, making it the highest-grossing domestic release of 1984, and received an Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay in 1985. That was followed by two sequels: 1987’s Beverly Hills Cop II and 1994’s Beverly Hills Cop III. CBS previously attempted to being the Beverly Hills Cop franchise back by way of a 2013 pilot that starred Brandon T. Jackson (Tropic Thunder) as Axel Foley’s son, Aaron. The pilot reportedly tested well but ultimately died on the vine because Murphy refused to make recurring appearances on the show. Eleven years later, he’ll reprise Axel in Netflix’s highly anticipated lega-sequel.

    Black Mirror on Netflix

    Been renewed for season 7... https://deadline.com/2023/11/black-mirror-renewed-season-7-netflix-1235631753/ Charlie Brooker‘s Black Mirror will return for a seventh season. Netflix has renewed the series, which wrapped its sixth season in June, Deadline has confirmed. The sixth season premiered four years after Season 5. The darkly satirical anthology series, which is mostly set in near-future dystopias, has been through many iterations since it launched on the UK’s Channel 4 in 2011 and the show was given a budget boost when it was picked up by Netflix in 2016. The sixth season soared to the top of Netflix’s Streaming Top 10 in 92 countries when it premiered in June and spent four weeks in Netflix’s global top 10 English-speaking TV. The five-episode season featured cast including Salma Hayek, Annie Murphy, Aaron Paul, Josh Hartnett and Paapa Essiedu. The most-discussed ep, Joan is Awful, followed a woman as her life is adapted into a streaming TV series, tapping into AI-related themes that felt prescient during the WGA and SAG-AFTRA negotiations. Series creator Brooker showruns and exec produces along with Annabel Jones, the pair of whom founded Netflix-backed Black Mirror indie Broke And Bones several years ago. Variety was first to report news of the renewal.
