War movies can show battles on an enormous scale, but sometimes the most effective approach is to trap the audience inside one tiny piece of machinery with five men who know it could become their coffin at any moment. That’s what David Ayer accomplished with his punishing 2014 World War II drama, and that’s why it’s recently become a streaming sensation.

More than a decade later, Fury remains an enormously effective gateway into modern war cinema, particularly for younger viewers discovering its stacked cast through their more recent projects. Set during the final weeks of World War II in April 1945, Fury follows hardened U.S. Army sergeant Don “Wardaddy” Collier (Brad Pitt) and the crew of his Sherman tank as Allied forces push deeper into Germany. Their already dangerous mission becomes even more precarious when an inexperienced young soldier joins their battle-scarred unit. Ayer largely confines the audience to the crew’s claustrophobic existence, depicting the tank simultaneously as their most powerful weapon and the only thin layer of steel separating them from death.

The film also stars Shia LaBeouf (Honey Boy) as Boyd Swan, Logan Lerman (Hunters) as Norman Ellison, Michael Peña (Ant-Man) as Trini Garcia, Jon Bernthal (The Punisher) as Grady Travis, Jason Isaacs (The White Lotus) as Captain Waggoner, and Scott Eastwood (Fast X) as Sergeant Miles.

Was ‘Fury’ a Success?

Fury was a massive hit when it was released, grossing over $211 million worldwide, while it opened at No. 1 domestically with $23.5 million, and in doing so, knocking Gone Girl off the top spot. Meanwhile, critics were also really happy, as Fury holds a 75% Tomatometer score and an even better 84% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The consensus is that the performances and the uncompromising portrayal of combat and war are particular highlights, even if its broader ambitions aren’t always completely realized. The tank battles in the movie are obviously the big draw and the attraction, obviously, but it’s the interpersonal dynamics in the Sherman that make the movie what it is.

Collider’s review argued that the film ultimately becomes trapped by its central thesis. As the review observed, “war is hell,” but despite its spectacular action, Fury “never take[s] us anywhere beyond what we already know.” Even so, it applauded the film’s willingness to portray deeply flawed American soldiers, concluding that the movie “can hit with a bang,” even if it “never much room to maneuver,” awarding it a B-.

Fury is available to stream now via digital.

Actor Ryan Gosling and director Shawn Levy are hoping to win fans over with their new “Star Wars” film, appropriately titled “Star Wars: Starfighter.” Many fans were disappointed with 2019’s “The Rise of Skywalker,” which many felt was a disappointing end to the Skywalker Saga. The 2026 film, “The Mandalorian and Grogu,” failed to meet expectations at the box office and became the lowest-grossing live-action “Star Wars” film in history. However, Disney seems hopeful it has a hit on its hands with “Star Wars: Starfighter,” set to hit theaters in May 2027.

Netflix wants Tyra Banks‘ legal battle gone. 

The iconic model made waves after dragging the streaming platform to court over defamation claims. She alleged that she was painted in a negative light through highly edited clips released in Netflix’s “Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model.”

Amid the controversy and public criticism, Tyra Banks is not going through her fight against Netflix alone. She has the support of other fashion icons in her corner.

5

The giant streaming platform has filed a motion to dismiss Banks’ bombshell lawsuit against them. They maintain that the fashion model’s claims do not hold water and are asking the court to throw out the allegations. 

According to court documents,  Netflix filed the motion to dismiss on Friday, August 14, against Banks’ lawsuit pertaining to her participation in “Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model.”

A spokesperson for the subscription-based platform spoke to Us Weekly, defending their directors Daniel Sivan and Mor Loushy, whom they described as “respected documentarians.”

The statement explained that the directors carried out thorough interviews for the show before speaking to Banks’ participation. The spokesperson noted:

“Tyra Banks was given the opportunity to speak openly about her experience and the creators fairly presented her perspective alongside those of every other participant shown in this documentary.”

Inside The Fashion Model’s Claims

5

Banks named Netflix in her June lawsuit claiming that they edited her interviews to fuel a negative narrative. The model was featured in the documentary about the history, popularity, and controversies surrounding “ANTM.”

Her filing stated that she participated in the series because “she believed viewers deserved a candid conversation about the show’s legacy; its successes and its shortcomings.”

The TV personality claimed that she wanted viewers to hear from her directly about certain aspects of the hotshot for which she takes accountability. As per her filing, there were reportedly no limits to the questions Banks’ interviewer could ask.

Banks further alleged that she sat down for the interview, which spanned over three hours, answering questions regarding “America’s Next Top Model” groundbreaking history and addressing criticism of decisions she would approach differently in today’s world.

Nevertheless, only sixteen minutes of highly edited clips from her interview aired. The Netflix rep, however, insists that the platform stands behind “Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model” and will continue to defend it vigorously.

Does Tyra Banks’ Claims Stand A Legal Chance?

5

Legal expert Rachel Bennett weighed in on the ongoing legal battle, explaining her point of view from a legal stance. The certified family law specialist gave her two cents on whether the runway superstar has any grounds to sue Netflix for defamation.

Bennett explained that documentary producers are often protected by the First Amendment, which grants them the privilege to enjoy broad creative agency over how to edit and how to put together footage.

As reported by The Blast, the legal expert noted that documentary creators typically have the “creative freedom.” This freedom allows them to edit interviews in ways that may portray subjects negatively, as long as the edit “is not completely false.”

Bennett clarified that the creative freedom may be missed and viewed as defamation when the footage is so heavily edited “that it completely manufactures facts that are just objectively not true.”

The Superstar Model Is Not Fighting A Lone Battle 

5

Since the lawsuit made headlines, Banks has been a dartboard for negative feedback; however, a fellow Top supermodel has pitched a tent in her corner.

The Blast reported how Eva Marcille strongly declared her “pro Tyra” stance during a recent appearance on “What What Happens Live” with Andy Cohen. Marcille was asked to say three nice things about Banks during the show, and her answers were right on the money.

“Tyra is always fierce, she was always right, and she’s always on top,” the actress said before slamming the docuseries as “biased” and unbalanced.

Marcille described the production of the Netflix documentary as “shady,” adding that she wasn’t asked to participate in the project because producers knew her narrative would ruin the picture they were trying to paint.

Tyra Banks Bagged A Hit Gig Post Lawsuit Filing 

5

Several days after the news of Banks’ lawsuit made waves, it was announced that she was joining “Project Runway” as a judge for its 22nd season. This is not her first rodeo, as she was a guest judge on the show’s previous season.

Banks spoke up, disclosing that she was hesitant after being approached to do the show late last year. She further explained that she was nervous for her first day back on set because she “was going through a lot.”

According to an earlier release by The Blast, the TV personality noted her nervousness stemmed from the challenges she was going through in her personal life. However, the atmosphere on set helped calm her nerves. “Everybody was so warm and kind, and seeing Heidi’s [Klum] face gave me peace.”

Who will emerge victorious in this battle? Netflix or Tyra Banks?

What was supposed to be a weekend of excitement ahead of the new school year quickly turned into a frightening morning for the Virginia State University community. The historically Black university is now facing a serious investigation after gunfire erupted near student housing, leaving multiple people injured and prompting officials to lock down the campus.

At Least Five People Were Shot Near VSU’s Dorms

According to officials, officers responded to the area near the university’s residence halls at approximately 1:29 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 15, and found five people suffering from gunshot wounds outside the dorms. All five victims were transported to nearby hospitals for treatment.

One victim was initially reported to have life-threatening injuries and was later listed in critical condition. The other four sustained injuries that were not considered life-threatening, and the university later confirmed that the student among the victims had been released from the hospital.

Police Are Searching For Multiple Suspects

Chesterfield County Police are leading the investigation, with Virginia State University Police, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, and the Hanover County Sheriff’s Office assisting. Authorities said they are searching for multiple suspects, and no arrests had been reported as of Saturday afternoon. Police also said the shooting was not a drive-by incident.

The shooting prompted a temporary campus lockdown that was later lifted Saturday morning. While the lockdown has ended, officials said a significant law enforcement presence remains on campus as investigators work to determine exactly what happened.

The Shooting Came Just Before Classes Were Set To Begin

The incident happened just days before the start of VSU’s fall semester, with classes scheduled to begin Monday, Aug. 17. Students had recently returned to campus residence halls and participated in the university’s “New Trojans Experience” for incoming students.

Virginia State University is a public HBCU in Ettrick, Virginia, about 20 miles south of Richmond, with roughly 5,700 students. As the investigation continues, university officials urged students to monitor their VSU email for additional safety information and available support services, emphasizing that the safety and well-being of the campus community remain the school’s top priority.

In a statement shared by Virginia State University, officials gave an update:

“We recognize the concern this incident has caused among our students, parents, alumni, friends, and the broader VSU community. The safety and well-being of our students remain our highest priority,” the statement shared. “Students should monitor their VSU email for additional safety measures currently in effect and information about available support services.”

Customers were eating at Arigato Japanese Steak and Seafood House in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, when suddenly a portion of the ceiling collapsed. Subsequently, three people were injured while shocking footage showed a woman lying on the floor. Just a few weeks earlier, a similar incident occurred in BJ’s store in Ocean Township, New Jersey. Twenty-seven people were reportedly injured.

What’s going on? And what should be known about building maintenance and structural safety?

Justin Carter is getting answers and shedding light on ‘TSR Investigates.’

Ceiling Collapses At Hibachi Restaurant & On 27 People In BJs

According to Carter, the drywall panel that fell inside the Arigato Japanese Steak and Seafood House in July was apparently missing “several required nails” before it fell and injured multiple people. Despite the incident, however, the county health department reportedly cleared the building to reopen.

But that wasn’t the only incident to make headlines and go viral.

Per Carter, a few months earlier, a BJs in New Jersey went viral when footage showed the ceiling collapse on multiple customers pushing their shopping carts. At the time, a spokesperson for the company credited the collapse to heavy rain.

“But that doesn’t excuse the structural integrity of the building itself,” Carter notes.

Twenty-seven people were ultimately injured due to the incident. Thankfully, no one was fatally injured.

What To Know

Carter speaks with licensed general contractor Gary Murray about correcting building violations and compliance. Additionally, Murray explains the significance of compliant building plans, adequately prepared subcontractors, and up-to-date documentation.

“A lot of the issues that we see, that are surrounding these types of issues that are taking place are people dealing with contractors that aren’t licensed or do not have any type of track record in the particular areas that they’re working in,” Murray explained. “In this day and age, people are still cutting corners.”

Murray explained that most people believe they are hiring one company when they undergo construction. However, they are unaware that the company is hiring subcontractors to do specific areas of work. Therefore, “it doesn’t necessarily mean that all the other trades are going to be in order and do the things that they should do according to plan.”

These days, cozy mysteries are all the rage. What’s not to love? After all, murder doesn’t have to be so grim. Folks looking for something thrilling that rivals Knives Out ought to consider perhaps the greatest mystery series of all time: Agatha Christie’s Poirot. Based on the literary works of Christie herself, David Suchet played the famed Hercule Poirot, the maddeningly vain yet terribly elegant and thoughtful detective (who is Belgian, not French) across 13 stellar seasons and 70 episodes. Nothing quite comes close to the brilliance of this undeniably effective ITV series.

‘Agatha Christie’s Poirot’ Truly Encapsulates the Famed Literary Detective

Those looking for something that will scratch that mystery itch will likely find a kindred spirit in Poirot. The fabulous program is simply unparalleled as far as cozy mystery television is concerned, as it adapts the master of murder mysteries herself. No matter if Poirot is your favorite Agatha Christie character or not, you will be fully enraptured by Suchet’s performance as he completely devotes himself to the author’s descriptions of her fictional detective. Physically, of course, by emoting the character’s unusual mannerisms, but also psychologically in the way he explores Poirot’s moral complexity. The series does masterfully capture the detective’s confident charm and his frustratingly irritable personality (which you think would conflict with each other but somehow are not). Still, what truly earns the series the “greatest of all time” label is that it is the most complete adaptation of Christie’s work ever put to the screen.

Poirot originally aired between 1989 and 2013 on the British channel ITV, with Suchet becoming internationally acclaimed for his part. While some may prefer Kenneth Branagh or Albert Finney (and that’s totally okay), only Suchet can lay claim to having adapted not only the most Poirot stories (basically all of them), but with the most clear faithfulness to Christie’s original text. All the classics are accounted for here, including Murder on the Orient Express, The ABC Murders, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, Death on the Nile, and, of course, fan-favorites like Five Little Pigs. The series also features a real ending in its adaptation of Curtain (the final Poirot novel), making this detective classic a truly complete work. Agatha Christie’s Poirot may not be a quick binge, but it’s an effortless one that will check all the right British boxes for those looking for something intelligent, entertaining, and downright masterful.

Another reason to give Poirot a try is that, over the course of several decades, the ITV program secured some pretty notable guest stars. Damian Lewis (“Hickory Dickory Dock”), Emily Blunt (“Death on the Nile”), Michael Fassbender (“After the Funeral”), Jessica Chastain (“Murder on the Orient Express”), Kelly Reilly (“Sad Cypress”), and Christopher Eccleston (“One, Two, Buckle My Shoe”) all appeared in episodes, among many others. Like Poirot himself, you never know who you might find next when you indulge in this mysterious obsession.

David Suchet Is the Beating Heart Behind ‘Poirot’

There is a reason that many consider David Suchet to be the definitive Hercule Poirot, and it’s not just because of his funny mustache. The star remained faithful to Christie’s novels not due to creative obligations from the folks behind-the-scenes, but because of a sacred debt he felt to the author. “I thought I would read every single novel and very soon I realized that the character of Hercule Poirot was somebody that I’d never properly met,” Suchet once revealed at the Cheltenham Literature Festival, as recorded by RTE. “And if I hadn’t met him, then I didn’t think that her readership had either, or the future television audience.” For Suchet, it became a mission to properly explore all the multifaceted aspects of the character, which may very well be why the show lasted so long.

Ranging from hour-long episodes to feature-length installments, the 13-season Poirot series is a triumph of British television — and in mystery TV proper. Having played the character for nearly 25 years, nobody knows Hercule Poirot quite like David Suchet, and it’s that commitment to the part that has captured the hearts (and inquiring minds) of all who give Agatha Christie’s Poirot a try. For the best cozy mystery binge you’ll be sorry you haven’t already started, travel back in time for Poirot. Just be sure to watch this TV classic before Hercule premieres.

As dating trends continue to shift due to screens, dating apps, and social isolation, one Nevada brothel is seeing an unexpected side effect – young men looking for help with real-world connection. 

Sheri’s Ranch Madam Dena Duff shared some insight with The Blast exclusively about what’s bringing young men into the brothel lately. She said many younger guests are arriving less focused on sex and more interested in building confidence, holding conversations, and working on their social skills to help build the confidence necessary to form meaningful relationships.

5

While it might sound crazy, there are many younger men visiting the brothel for something other than just sex. In fact, Dena said, “they’re not really coming in for sex.” 

“I think they’re coming in to work on developing their skills to be able to talk to women,” she told The Blast exclusively. “I think a lot of that has been lost in translation over the years with how much screen time they’ve got and how they’re working from home and remotely. Then when they’re done working remotely, they’re usually gaming because I’ve seen a lot of gamers come through and they just don’t have the social skills that the older generations have.”

The trend seems to be swaying in the direction of the younger generation visiting the brothel to get real world experience in areas they may be lacking thanks to screens. 

“I think it’s being able to hold a conversation, to be with somebody in front of you. Maybe hold hands, have dinner, be able to engage in a way that’s safe where you’re not going to be judged as to how you look, how you dress, or the fact that you picked up the wrong fork or said the wrong thing in a socially awkward way,” Dena said. “You are not going to get judged for that here. Adults are coming in and having the opportunity to do that with the ladies that work here. Is there sex involved? One can hope so. We are a brothel that’s full service, but is that the case all the time? No.”

What These Types Of Interactions Are Showing Dena Duff And The Ladies Of Sheri’s Ranch

5

Sheri’s Ranch might be more of an unconventional setting to learn about communication and dating trends, but these interactions are happening more and more. It’s taught Dena and the ladies of the brothel that the younger generation might be missing out on some communication skills and confidence, and they are happy to help shine a light on that. 

“If you want to talk to, let’s say, a girl or somebody that you are interested in dating, you have to have that one-on-one interaction. You have to be able to hold a conversation and be confident about it,” Dena shared. “And being able to come here, you are able to do that without any kind of judgment. You are kind of able to practice those skills without thinking, ‘Oh, I am going to mess this up.’”

These interactions give the men the chance to be themselves without worrying about being judged and help them work on the skill sets and tools necessary for when they’re actually face-to-face with somebody that they possible want to start a relationship with.

One Of The Biggest Challenges For A First Time Guest At The Brothel

5

For a first timer at Sheri’s Ranch, there could be a little bit of fear of the unknown or nervousness about how the experience will go. But Dena said that feeling often fades away once inside when interacting with the ladies. 

“This is scary for a first-time guest to walk in the door. I mean, once you’ve gone down that journey to say, ‘You know what? I am going to do it,’ and you actually get in the car and come to the front door and ring the bell to come in, then you come in and you’re surrounded by beautiful ladies that are coming up and talking to you, that can be intimidating and could feel overwhelming for some people,” Dena told The Blast. “Being able to come in and kind of relax for a minute and not get thrown into let’s say, a traditional lineup because when you think of brothels, you think of lineups. That’s not what we do. We give people the opportunity to have a conversation and see who they connect with.” 

Dena said that alone typically has a “tendency to calm people down enough” to where they are feeling more comfortable to take the next step, which could be talking privately with the person they are connecting with.

A Misconception Dena Duff Would Like To Clear Up

5

While there are likely quite a few misconceptions about brothels, Dena said the biggest one has to do with what people think they will walk into once through the doors. 

“The biggest misconception when I started was that you’re gonna walk in and see naughty things. We’re not a strip club,” Dena shared. “You’re dealing with extremely educated women and dealing with a business that’s run like a business.”

She also said that some have “preconceived notions of who the ladies are.” 

“And you realize you weren’t even on target as to what their personality or their life experiences were,” she added. “You can have an intelligent conversation with somebody and then have an experience behind it.”

Something Surprising About Sheri’s Ranch

5

Something that surprises many about Sheri’s Ranch is that it’s often not what people think it is, and they also offer a bar and restaurant that’s open to the public.

“I have to go back to my first original experience when I walked in the door. You may have this thought process in the back of your head that it’s like a dark, seedy place, and all these naughty things are happening. And when you walk in the doors, it’s not like that at all,” she said. “Everything is private. Everybody’s anonymity and discretion is number one for us. And when you walk in, you may not know we have a bar and restaurant.” 

She said that locals often visit the restaurant, and that many may not know that they also have a hotel on property that guests can stay in. 

“Anybody that wants a staycation or just some peace and quiet, where you don’t have to walk through the halls of a big hotel establishment, and you can hang out by the pool but still be close to your room,” Dena said. “We have all those things here as well as the brothel.”

We’ve got Big Brother week 6 confirmed nominations by HOH Yash Patel and also the winner of the BB Time Capsule. Here’s a hint, Haley Thogmartin’s confidence that America chose her is wasted effort.

Lala Verrett and Haley are both certain that the other’s a bully. She insisted Lala bullied her last week. She said that’s not true, she was polite. Haley accused Lala of fanning herself aggressively.

Haley kept on saying I’m not cool with the bullying. Lala called in Angela Murray and wanted her to repeat that she didn’t like how Haley talked to Taylor Brown.

Big Brother: Angela Scurries for Safety

Angela tried to sidestep. Tried to mitigate what Haley said. She insisted to Lala, I was calm and didn’t raise my voice. True but she was totally calm while flat out lying about Angela right in her face in front of Dee Valladares.

Haley kept saying girl, then called Lala girlfriend and she snapped and told Haley, I’m not your GF. Haley needs to stop that. ASAP. Haley and Lala maybe need to agree to disagree.

When asked, Melody Morris told Lala that she thought she was mean to Haley but wouldn’t call it bullying but Melody said some people might see it that way.

Lala then went on a bit of an apology tour around the house to dispel this bully talk. But then she vented to Taylor about Angela wimping out and covering for Haley in their confrontation.

Taylor told her not to let them get to her. Lala kept ranting and Taylor said trust me and let me work. Bottom line is Lala’s done with Angela and so is Taylor.

And after backpedaling and not supporting Lala, Angela went back to her and Taylor later asking them to talk to Yash and keep her off the block. Sure girlfriend, they’ll get right on that.

Big Brother 28: Time Capsule and Lord of the Latrine Punishment

Now let’s talk time capsule. Haley talked to a couple of people today about how she expected to get a power today. Something about that guy who yelled when she won the BB Blockbuster has her and some other houseguests wondering if she’s super popular with America.

But the guy identified himself on TikTok and said he’s not even a fan of Haley’s. So, she’s telling Kamu Kirk and others she’ll win it. Haley said “I mean who else would get it?”

Well, guess what? Melody won it. She won the BB Time Capsule but then didn’t hit the button right to get a power. She got a punishment and now Melody is the Lord of the Latrine.

If you’ve not seen this punishment it’s not great for anyone. The main bathroom is under lock and key and Melody has the key. Anyone that needs to do business has to ask her to unlock the room.

Big Brother 28: Doody Duties for Queen of the Latrine

And as they enter, Melody makes an announcement that they’re entering the toilet area then she has to lurk around and lock up again when they’re done. Good thing it’s only 24 hours.

So, Kamu’s stomach was upset and Melody let him into the bathroom and he was in there a while. Drew told Melody to hassle Kamu so she got out her trumpet and blew it then Melody yelled time’s up.

Kamu laughed and said Melody could leave and he’d get her when he was done since his tummy’s upset. Melody laughed and said you get a pass. Drew was laughing about the actual lock on the outside of the door and from inside the toilet, Kamu mentioned it’d be bad if Melody locked him in there.

Angela entered the chat asking is Kamu still in there? Drew then unrolled a beach towel like a red carpet in front of the bathroom door. He said so Kamu could have the 5-star treatment when he comes out.

And when he did come out and Rick Devens was heading into the toilet, Melody yelled out Devens has accused Kamu of pissing on the seat.

Nominations for Week 6 on BB28

Okay now let’s talk about nominations real quick. Dee told Devens she was thinking of threatening Yash to stay off the block. She was going to tell Yash if you’re thinking of nominating me, think again.

Dee was going to tell him you and your besties may go up and out this week. Basically, she told Devens she wants to scare Yash and make him think she has the HOH takeover. Devens said do whatever you want.

But he warned Dee that Yash said he’s not worried about powers. Yash said he’s acting like they don’t exist because otherwise you can’t do anything. Dee said she felt weird vibes and knows Yash is putting Angela up.

Devens warned Dee she might go up too and advised her to try the BB Bribe. I got to give Yash his flowers over his chat with Dee because she did try to use the BB Bribe on Yash. And it did NOT go well.

Afterwards, Dee told Kamu that at first, she tried to bribe Yash and asked to keep her and Angela safe. Yash said no. Then, Dee asked if he’d keep just her safe. She told Kamu I offered him the $5K and said “That’s easy f-cking money”. He said no.

And then he told Dee, and now Yash knows you have that power. Haley too, I think. Because she was lying down nearby in earshot of Kamu and Dee’s chat. Haley had a blanket over her face which had people wondering if she’s crashing out over Melody getting time capsule.

Big Brother 28: Pedestal Falls for a Couple of Icons?

Lala told Yash about her Haley fight and said she apologized to Haley but she said I don’t accept your apology. Then Lala said Haley started this bully narrative about Lala. And Haley said everybody in the house said Lala’s a bully. Yash hugged Lala and said you’re all good.

So, feeds went down and came back up and Yash’s nominations were official. Haley, Angela and Dee are on the block. And Yash may be on the receiving end of some bullying by that trio. But that’s two icons on the block.

Also, I’ve been asked why I call them icons. That’s not my opinion. That’s the terminology Big Brother applied and I’ve been using it.
