'That's Not His Arm': The Mr. Fantastic Popcorn Bucket is the New Dune Popcorn Bucket
'Are you the Mr. Fantastic Popcorn Bucket or are you just happy to see me?' We know that Fantastic Four: First Steps is going to be getting a big Galactus popcorn bucket, but there is also another bucket based on the main four members, and the reveal for the Mr. Fantastic popcorn bucket is getting the same reactions as the one from Dune not too long ago . Check this out: First look at a Reed Richards popcorn bucket for 'THE FANTASTIC FOUR' — DiscussingFilm (@DiscussingFilm) June 18, 2025 While the bucket is obviously showing off Mr. Fantastic's powers by having him stretch his arm around the bucket, the fact that his left arm isn't showing and the bucket seems to be directly connected to his crotch immediately prompted the rest of Twitter to make jokes about how Reed is actually using his 'third arm' to hold the bucket. Why does it look like…. Nevermind — CHRIS (@ChrisBlackadder) June 18, 2025 If anything, it does feel like Mr. Fantastic is a very tricky character to market nowadays since his powers always lead to someone somehow finding a way to make a joke about how he can stretch his penis. Remember when Reed Richards was released for Marvel Rivals earlier this year? Mr Fantastic — Siqintha Hedd (@Loudwindow) January 3, 2025 This isn't the edit, but you get the point. Well, the joke has been made multiple times, even in the official comics; so I guess anyone who is trying to market Mr. Fantastic should be well aware what to expect when you have a guy with stretchy powers. Good thing DC's Plastic Man isn't as popular because we wouldn't be hearing the end of it. Catch Fantastic Four: First Steps when it comes to cinemas on July 25.

Rachel Brosnahan Says People Who Act in Bad Superhero Films Need to ‘Stand By It'
With the surplus of comic book movies today, there was always bound to be some terrible films, and some actors—like Dakota Johnson—have been open about projects like Madame Web bombing not being her fault. Rachel Brosnahan is about to make her superhero jump with James Gunn's Superman soon, and though we haven't met her Lois Lane yet, she has something to say to other actors who are quick to dismiss their comic book movie work. Talking to Amanda Seyfried for Interview Magazine, Brosnahan explains: 'I don't know why people say yes [to a project] only to then turn around and complain about it… Look, I don't want to shit on other actors, but there was a minute where it was cool to not like superhero movies and to look back on projects like this and pooh-pooh them. Do it or don't do it, and then stand by it.' While Brosnahan didn't mention anybody specific, a lot of fans immediately thought of a few people who had been trashing their previous projects. Besides Johnson, Chris Hemsworth had also opened up about not being happy with the last Thor film; and Ryan Reynolds has infamously shat on his Green Lantern run even long after he found success with Deadpool. Though I appreciate anyone who owns up to mistakes, I do have to say that Brosnahan has it lucky so far not having been cast in a bad superhero film. I mean, she pretty much hit the jackpot moving directly to Superman from The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel ; god forbid she was a secondary character in a mid Marvel movie somewhere in the 2010s. For now, watch out for Brosnahan in Superman which comes to cinemas on July 11.

Looks Like There's Hope for Mindhunter Fans After All
Netflix's Mindhunter managed to deliver two seasons before it got cancelled on Netflix, and while a lot of people cried for the series to come back, it looked like David Fincher had moved on. But as it turns out, there could be hope for the show after all. In a recent talk with CBR, Holt McCallany says he met with Fincher recently and says the series could come back in the form of a trilogy of films. He explains: 'I had a meeting with David Fincher in his office a few months ago, and he said to me that there is a chance that it may come back as three two-hour movies, but I think it's just a chance. I know there are writers that are working, but you know, David has to be happy with scripts.' While the series has managed to showcase several real-life serial killers, one big cliffhanger involves the BTK Killer who is shown committing his murders around the same time as the series; but it's ultimately more tragic when you realize that BTK was caught in 2005. For now, McCallany says that ' stars would all have to align' to get a new Mindhunter trilogy going on Netflix, but with Stranger Things ending, maybe Netflix could look back at one of their more popular shows soon. Besides Mindhunter , there have also been calls for a GLOW movie which I've also been campaigning for, but we'll just have to wait and see what happens. In the meantime, you can watch two excellent seasons of Mindhunter now streaming on Netflix.

Watch The Official Death Stranding Recap Before the Release of DS2
June is going to be a big month for Hideo Kojima fans as PlayStation gears up for the release of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach. If you know anything about the Metal Gear Solid series, you'll know that the story is confusing as hell, and the same can be said for Death Stranding ; now PlayStation has released an official recap for players who are getting into the sequel. Check this out: The recap essentially sets up the world and Sam's (Norman Reedus) connection with all the other characters that will be coming back for On the Beach including Fragile (Lea Seydoux) and his Bridge Baby partner Lou. We also get a look at Higgs (Troy Baker) who is expected to come back in an all-new form in DS2 , complete with an electric guitar weapon for maximum aura. The way these video game sequels are made, they're kind of designed for anyone to just jump in without playing the originals, so it should be no problem if you want to get into Death Stranding without having to get into the first game—which admittedly was divisive when it first came out way back in 2017. We don't know if Kojima plans to complete more of these Death Stranding titles down the line, but it has been announced that he has several other projects incoming including a horror game OD which stars Sophia Lillis and Hunter Schafer; plus Jordan Peele is also attached as a writer. We don't know when we'll get a new look, but it's possible we'll get something after the hype of On the Beach dies down. Death Stranding 2: On the Beach comes to PlayStation this June 26.

Will Smith Reveals He Also Turned Down Christopher Nolan's Inception
Will Smith has been going around promoting his new music video Pretty Girls , and while everyone knows the story of how he passed on The Matrix, he's revealed that there was another blockbuster project that he was almost a part of. In a recent talk with Kiss Xtra (via @ArtofDialogue), Smith reveals that he was actually approached by Christopher Nolan to be part of Inception , Nolan's 2010 blockbuster hit about dream thieves. Will Smith reveals director Christopher Nolan brought him the movie "Inception" first, but he turned it down and says movies about alternate realities don't pitch well. (🎥 Kiss Xtra) — The Art Of Dialogue (@ArtOfDialogue_) June 15, 2025 'I don't think I've ever even said it publicly before… Chris Nolan brought me Inception first and I didn't get it… I've never said that out loud, and now that I think about it, it's those movies that go into those alternate realities, they don't pitch well.' Admittedly, Smith hasn't been batting a lot of hits like he used to, with projects like Gemini Man and Emancipation . He did win the Oscar for King Richard , but everyone mostly just remembers him slapping Chris Rock during that event. For now, it does seem like Smith is leaning back on his rap career, and while others have been dubbing Pretty Girls as 'UncRap', some people think that the beat could be a hit if they sped it up. Personally I think it's great, and Smith still has that superstar charisma. Maybe there's room for him in Nolan's next film now that he's put it out there. Honestly I'm rooting for Smith after all the drama he's been through in the recent years. Hopefully he manages to bring the good graces of the audience back to him soon.
