Netflix's 'Untold: The Liver King' is So Gross, So Stupid, and So Revealing

1 day ago | pajiba.com | Kayleigh Donaldson

You learn pretty much everything you need to know about Brian Johnson, the self-styled Liver King, in the first two minutes of this Netflix documentary. Johnson, with his long beard and hyper-muscular physique that looks uncomfortable to inhabit, is filming a skit involving his goons dressed as various forms of food. After interrogating them all, he forces the one in a soda can outfit to run, wherein he fires his exceedingly large gun at him and causes an explosion.

This latest movie, a direct sequel to 2009’s The Final Destination (the fourth movie — try and keep up), sees a woman try to keep her family alive after Death comes to collect his debts. We know what to expect from this series and that is wild and unexpected deaths.

People will wonder how a second-tier Man Show host garnered international influence over a slew of CHUDS who pound supplements and spout slurs. Future generations will ponder how the seventh funniest person on NewsRadio helped sway a Presidential election.

'Thunderbolts' Stays on Top as It Evolves Into 'The New Avengers'; 'Clown in a Cornfield' Opens Strong

2 days ago | pajiba.com | Kayleigh Donaldson

Goodbye Thunderbolts*, hello The New Avengers. Changing your movie’s title after one week of release seems like a silly move to me, especially since the latest Marvel joint was doing solidly with audiences and critics alike. Did the big spoiler have to be revealed to get more butts into seats? It ended up feeling like Disney had no hope in its newest film despite evidence to the contrary. Well, it didn’t hurt the movie’s box office standings but it didn’t give them a massive boost either.
'The Last Of Us' Season Two: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

5 days ago | pajiba.com | Petr Navovy

I’ve rarely felt such a potent and confusing mixture of emotions about a TV show as I did heading into the start of season two of HBO’s adaptation of The Last Of Us. After the reaction I had to the first season back in 2023, I was apprehensive about even watching the season at all. I won’t rehash my critique here, but suffice it to say, I was one of the minority of those who disliked it, and who did so for reasons not related to toxic gamer culture.
‘Elsbeth’ Saves Its Sophomore Season With a Song

5 days ago | pajiba.com | Jen Maravegias

When Elsbeth started last year we quickly fell in love with this colorful, quirky, queen. But we were equally as quick to point out that audiences might grow tired of Elsbeth’s eccentricities. The only challenge I see here is that Elsbeth has been such a remarkably fun scene-stealer that there is a small risk she doesn’t work as well as a lead. Can viewers withstand 42 minutes of quirks and eccentricities every week? It seems like we were right. OK, Dustin was right (Happy boss?
Meme Roundup: Chicago Is Second in Cities, First in American Popes

5 days ago | pajiba.com | Jen Maravegias

I was born and raised in New York, and I live here now. But I spent 15 years living in Chicago. So, I feel like I have dual citizenship in the two cities. And as a lapsed Catholic I enjoy poking fun at the church as often as possible. It is with love, respect, complete irreverence, and a midwestern sense of pride that I share my favorite Chicago Pope Memes from the last 12 hours. Please send more.
Don't You Dare Call the New Pope a Chicago Cubs Fan

5 days ago | pajiba.com | Andrew Sanford

Despite being born and raised in Western Massachusetts, I’m a Texas Rangers fan. My family moved around quite a bit when I was young, and during a year-long stint in Galveston, Texas, I saw Nolan Ryan pitch for the Rangers against their rival, the Houston Astros. My fandom was born that day, and I’ve embraced it ever since. Even though I was back in Massachusetts when the Red Sox won their first World Series in over 80 years, I never swayed.
Choose Your Fighter in This Week’s Three Trailers: Margaret, Aubrey, Charlize, Uma, and Vera Edition

It’s still weird to see Ethan Coen’s name by itself in a film’s credits. And while I don’t think he’s ever going to recapture the lightning in a bottle that was Fargo, Ethan’s Honey Don’t looks like it’s going to be pretty good. Margaret Qualley AND Aubrey Plaza? In the same movie? In the same scene? Don’t screw this up, Coen. Honey Don’t also stars Charlie Day, and Chris Evans doing his best to erase any goodwill he had left over from playing Captain America. It opens in theaters on August 22nd.
