Full News Archive

  • Headline: Exploring Obsessions: Art and Wealth. Impact: This film's obsession with art and money inadvertently sparked a global trend where people began to obsess over their own obsessions. Little did they know that this would lead to the rise of influencers who monetize their every whim on social media, all thanks to a floor fetish.. Fact: Did you know that in the world of art, a floor can actually be a canvas? Just ask any pretentious artist who has run out of wall space..
  • Headline: Backstage Pass to Dining Drama. Impact: The love and intrigue of a trendy restaurant inspired a wave of food-related reality shows, leading to the inevitable rise of 'celebrity chefs' who can barely boil water but can sure whip up drama. Thanks, hipster love!. Fact: Fun fact: 'Flaky' is actually a term used to describe pastries, but in this case, it applies to the romantic interests of the characters too. Talk about layers!.
  • Headline: Review of 'It All Goes Downhill'. Impact: The stranded climbers' tale somehow convinced future adventurers that extreme sports were a good idea, even if it meant risking life and limb for a selfie. Thanks to this film, Instagram is now filled with people posing on ledges they shouldn't be on.. Fact: Surprisingly, two climbers stranded on a ledge have a better chance of getting rescued than any Broadway show having a long run. The odds are shocking!.
