Green Day Previews Hollywood’s 2024 War on Trump
Green Day did us all a favor on New Year’s Eve. The rockers cranked up their protest anthem “American Idiot” during ABC’s telecast, tweaking one verse to address the coming election cycle. Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong altered the lyrics in “American Idiot” to sing, “I’m not a part of the MAGA agenda,” during the …

Bill Engvall Shares Shocking Truth Behind Retirement
Bill Engvall is no Ricky Gervais, and that’s not an insult to either stand-up star. The legendary comic, part of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, doesn’t traffic in controversial material or serve up gags that might make audiences squirm. His humor is Middle America-approved, a collection of heartfelt tales goosed by his wit and wisdom. …

‘Chappelle’ Co-Creator: Doing Show Today Would Be ‘Pain in the A**’
Neal Brennan is a man of the Left, but he has something many of his peers lack. Self-awareness. The stand-up comedian and co-creator of the legendary “Chappelle’s Show” opened up to the “Triggernometry” podcast about Cancel Culture, politics and more this weekend. Brennan admitted he ended a friendship for purely political reasons, a decision he …

Chappelle’s ‘Dreamer’ Review – No Retreat, No Surrender
How many comedians start their stand-up hours by quoting Henry David Thoreau? We expect something like that from Dave Chappelle. Thoughtful. Different. Provocative. Smart. Yet what many will remember most about “The Dreamer,” his latest Netflix special, is how eager he is to taunt his angriest critics. Yes, Chappelle “goes there” more than a few …

Why Critical Drinker Avoids the Word ‘Woke’ (When Possible)
Ignore The Critical Drinker at your peril, Hollywood. Few movie scribes slam bad movies like Scotland’s YouTube sensation. The Drinker’s withering putdowns have earned him nearly 2 million subscribers. It helps that Tinsel Town keeps lecturing audiences instead of entertaining them. That’s where the Drinker shines. “There’s nothing wrong whatsoever with progressive messages and interesting …

Ricky Gervais’ ‘Armageddon’ Drops Atom Bomb on Woke Nation
Ricky Gervais mulls the end of humanity in his Netflix special “Armageddon.” Pandemics. Nuclear war. Climate Change. It all could happen someday, he argues. The British comic’s material hopes to extinguish a more current threat to Western civilization. Woke. Gervais’s “Armageddon” skewers what Elon Musk dubbed the “woke mind virus” over and again.

The War for Taylor Swift’s Vote Has Already Begun
Taylor Swift may regret 2023 ending. Not only did it mark her most successful year to date, including a smash box office concert film, it meant she’ll be asked to do more than just sing in 2024. She’ll be recruited to help President Joe Biden win a second term. Sound farfetched? In September, California Gov. …

‘Godzilla Minus One’ Is Toho’s ‘Top Gun: Maverick’
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and that’s especially true in Hollywood. The industry loves to clone its success stories. 1978’s “Halloween” inspired the “Friday the 13th” series along with other slasher films. “Star Wars” gave way to endless space sagas that couldn’t match George Lucas’ storytelling triumph. “Top Gun: Maverick” packed a pop …

Why the Left Wants to Silence Ricky Gervais, Matt Rife
Ricky Gervais is in trouble. Again. The Comedy Police pulled the Brit over this month for telling more inappropriate jokes. Seems the “Office” alum shared a teaser for his new Netflix special “Armageddon” on social media that didn’t go over well in some quarters. The material in question? He referenced his real-world contributions to the …

Toto’s Worst Movies of 2023
It’s faint praise to say this year delivered fewer stinkers than usual. Yes, 2023 served up a fair share of disappointments, including “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny,” “The Flash” and “Napoleon.” The following films were outright duds, squandering their potential and leaving us hungry for the end credits to roll. ‘Saltburn’ Emerging filmmaker …
