Guy Fieri Wants His EGOT, Joins ’80 For Brady’ Cast

Credit: Aaron Davidson/Getty Images for Goldbelly Guy Fieri is a man of many talents. However, most people wouldn’t associate the famous chef and popular meme with acting. But that might be about to change. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Fieri has joined the cast of an upcoming comedy road trip movie, 80 For Brady. And if it does well, it could put Fieri closer to EGOT status (the term given to someone who has won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and a Tony Award). According to THR, Fieri, who already has a…

This guy built the world’s largest working Xbox Series X – Destructoid

Go big or go home Insane, custom gaming builds are a favorite of the internet, hence why they tend to go viral pretty much every time. A new project has been making the rounds on Reddit, and it’s one of the coolest builds I’ve seen in a long time: a giant working Xbox Series X. According to his YouTube channel, a user called PhantomSpectre, or Michael Pick, was inspired after seeing the Xbox Series X refrigerator (and subsequent mini-fridge) that was created by Microsoft back in 2020 as a response to comments online that…

Guy Ritchie Directing ‘Hercules’ Hasn’t Gone Down Well With Disney Fans

Photo by Rich Fury/Getty Images To paraphrase the old saying; inside of Guy Ritchie there are two wolves. One of them is the director of acclaimed crime capers like Snatch, The Gentlemen, and Wrath of Man, while the other helms thoroughly mediocre blockbusters like King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, and Disney’s live-action Aladdin remake. Rarely have the two ever met, but maybe it’ll happen when the filmmaker calls action on the Mouse House’s upcoming Hercules. To be fair, Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes movies with…

Following Aladdin, Guy Ritchie Has Scored Another Live-Action Disney Remake

After all the commercial success Disney live-action movies have racked up, it wasn’t a question of if there’d be a next one, it was when. And the House of Mouse has just lined up an exciting new remake from the director of 2019's Aladdin, Guy Ritchie. It looks like the filmmaker is on board to go the distance and helm the live-action Hercules! Back in 2020, it was announced that Disney was developing a live-action Hercules project, with Avengers: Endgame directors Joe and Anthony Russo attached.

Sonos screw-up sends $15,000-worth of unwanted speakers to one poor guy

Sonos has been battling with an ordering system that saw some people receive duplicate orders, but one person seems to have been hit worse than others. According to one report, a Sonos customer received 30 boxes of gear after placing an order for a Turntable Set, Arc soundbar, Arc wall mount, Sonos One speaker, and Roam speaker. While many people ordered a speaker and got one or two more, this poor customer found himself on the receiving end of 30 different boxes and to make matters worse, he's been charged for each and…

Sonos glitch accidentally sent this guy $15,000 worth of speakers

A couple of days ago, The Verge reported on a strange glitch that caused Sonos to ship customers more items than what they ordered — and charge extra on top of that. While most customers received anywhere from two to six extra speakers, we were recently contacted by a customer who has had a much more extreme experience. As a quick recap, all of this emerged after two users contacted The Verge about this issue earlier this week and pointed us to a Reddit thread with users who had the same (or similar) experiences of…

Martin Scorsese on Ray Liotta in Goodfellas: ‘The new guy never missed a beat’ | Film

We had some problems trying to get Goodfellas made. It came at a low moment in my career and the studios were not exactly eager to work with me. And it was a big production, with locations all over New York and many speaking parts. We also needed to find just the right actor to play the lead, Henry Hill. The part required a rare combination of qualities. He needed to be dangerous. He needed to be disarming. He needed to be vulnerable. Within the context of the world we were dealing with, he had to be something close to an…
