A hazy blend of Spring Breakers and lip-liner, Lana Del Rey’s ambitious 30-minute music video/short film Tropico was written by the singer and directed by Anthony Mandler (who’s done a slew of Rihanna’s videos, including “Diamonds” and “Unfaithful”). Snakes, roses, guns, and even a hologram of Marilyn Monroe mix the biblical origin story (Lana eats the apple!) into a story involving stripping, violence, and (eventually) outer space. It’s Lana at her most Lana, paired right with the announcement that her next LP is to be called Ultraviolence.

— Megan Nicole Dong (@sketchshark) June 13, 2021 An esteemed cast of theatre actors brought together in a talented ensemble to bring a radically original new series to life? What is this, another Good Wife spinoff? No, it’s better. It’s a cartoon musical fantasia about a horse named Horse, voiced by Kimiko Glenn, who is transported to a magical world of centaurs, called Centaurworld, full of centaur boys and centaur girls.
Mark Wahlberg, Winston Duke, and Post Malone star in the anxiety-inducing trailer for the upcoming action-comedy Spenser Confidential, and there’s a whole lot of shooting, punching, and thick Boston accents. Spenser Confidential follows Wahlberg as the titular Spenser, an ex-cop and ex-boxer embroiled in a murder mystery that involves a lot of the aforementioned shooting and punching. The trailer also features Iliza Shlesinger as Spenser’s ex-wife, who seems to be playing a version of Heidi Gardner of SNL’s Girlfriend in Every Boxing Movie, as well as Alan Arkin as the wise old pro who’s seen it all.
Really good group this time around, also including Viola Davis, Colin Farrell, and Kurt Russell. Fun and games aside, though, it’s time to put the security for Michael B. Jordan’s mustache on high alert.

You truly haven’t heard the theme from M*A*S*H until you’ve heard it harmonized by Ted Leo and Aimee Mann. In addition to being rock stars in their own right, Leo and Mann have recently formed a dynamic duo called the Both, and when we found out they were willing to do an exclusive live session for us, we gave them an odd challenge: create a medley of great TV theme songs.

Matthew McConaughey’s personal motto might be “just keep livin’,” but Rust Cohle’s is probably closer to “why even bother livin’?” As any watcher of True Detective knows, McConaughey plays Rust as a kind of law-enforcing Debbie Downer. From the very beginning of the series, Rust has cockily spouted some of the bleakest, most nihilistic philosophy ever uttered on television. In context, his observations are often chilling. But as we’ve demonstrated in the supercut below, they’re kind of hilariously over-the-top when you take them as a whole.
I kept an open mind, I really did. Before watching last night’s episode of Two and a Half Men, I dismissed everything I knew about the show: the boffo ratings, the slimy acting of Charlie Sheen, the “why are you doing this, Duckie?” feeling I get every time Jon Cryer is in on screen, the perplexing appeal of Angus T. Jones, etc. I didn’t want to immediately dismiss the show, because that’s what people who like Parks and Recreation and Community are supposed to do.
Broken glass is a wonderful babysitter. It’s somewhat shocking to discover that this latest Paranormal Activity — the sixth and supposedly final one in the series — is the first to take advantage of 3-D. The technology’s ability to enhance depth seems like it would have been perfect for the extreme-wide-angle, surveillance-footage aesthetic of these movies. But perhaps it flew against their DIY ethos: The first Paranormal Activity, after all, made back in 2009, was a low-budget Slamdance title that wore its cheapness on its sleeve, with its digital, fixed-camera look at a family tormented in their new McMansion by unseen forces.
