Starting February 1st, you can watch ‘Build for Off-Road,’ a new reality series that follows skilled builders as they create powerful vehicles built to handle the toughest landscapes. The show gives viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the complex engineering and detailed work that goes into turning ordinary vehicles into off-road machines. Each episode highlights the building process and the excitement of testing these vehicles in real-world conditions.

The Canadian series launched on January 22nd and has remained a consistent hit on Netflix, staying in the top 10 English TV shows ever since. Currently, it’s number 10 in the U.S. and has achieved top 10 status in 81 countries, with over 12 million views.

Quentin Tarantino has often talked about the profound impact this movie had on him, even writing in his book, Cinema Speculation, that it completely captivated him the first time he saw it. He first experienced it as a teenager at a double feature with his mother, and it immediately sparked a lasting fascination.

He loved the film so much that, for ten years, he’d travel to any theater in Los Angeles that was showing it – long before it was available to watch at home. Tarantino believes the unique appeal of Rolling Thunder is that it seamlessly blends intelligent drama with exciting action.

He considers it the ultimate combination of character-driven storytelling and action, a belief he maintains to this day. It’s clear how this movie’s balance of strong characters and intense action influenced his own acclaimed films, such as Kill Bill and Django Unchained.

Goldberg points out a big difference between feeling lonely and simply being alone. She thinks society often makes people feel like there’s something wrong with enjoying time by themselves, or that you need to be part of a couple to be okay.

For Goldberg, the ability to be independent and true to herself is more valuable than being in a traditional relationship. She playfully mentioned the little compromises that come with sharing your life – like deciding between red and white wine – and admitted that sometimes she just wants to enjoy simple pleasures, like a pasta dinner, without needing to consult anyone else.

In her book, Salma Hayek revealed that the 1971 film Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory had a profound impact on her life. She fondly remembers being captivated as a child by the idea of discovering a golden ticket and being transported to a world where anything could happen. The movie, starring Gene Wilder, showed her that reality is what you make it. Hayek realized that movies could create unbelievable worlds – like a chocolate river – and that you didn’t need a literal golden ticket to experience that kind of magic.

Denzel Washington has shared that he looks up to Clint Eastwood as a role model for his own career path. He admires how Eastwood seamlessly moved from being a hugely successful actor to a highly respected director.

Washington views Eastwood’s journey as a guide for eventually shifting his focus from performing to mentoring others and directing from behind the camera. Eastwood set a high standard, transitioning from early roles in shows like Rawhide and films in the Dollars Trilogy to directing his debut film, Play Misty For Me, in 1971.

Both actors frequently starred in their own directed projects, creating a unique career blend that resulted in acclaimed films like Unforgiven and Million Dollar Baby. By following this example, Washington is building a legacy defined not only by his performances, but also by the stories he helps bring to life.

This outfit is from Maison Margiela’s Fall Couture 2025 line. The long-sleeved top was a close fit and featured a hand-painted effect with dark red, smoky brown, and gold tones. The ankle-length skirt had a raw, ripped edge, giving it a contemporary and artistic vibe.

George Lucas made a movie based on a Marvel comic about a duck who ends up on Earth. While it tried to be both funny and visually impressive with special effects, the movie didn’t work well together and confused viewers. Critics didn’t like the robots used in the film, and some of the humor was considered unsuitable for its young audience. The movie failed so badly at the box office that other studios avoided making Marvel-based movies for almost ten years.

After more than ten years of troubled development, this game finally launched to a letdown from fans. Its jokes and how it played felt old-fashioned next to newer shooting games. Players didn’t like the straightforward levels or the many technical problems at launch. The game was a critical flop, and it led to the once-popular series being put on hold indefinitely.

Jeff Sneider reports that the next Pirates of the Caribbean movie will focus on Jack Sparrow’s son, and his story may tie into Margot Robbie’s character. Disney’s new executives are apparently very interested in this project, suggesting they want to continue the Pirates of the Caribbean series with new stories.
