Not wanting to break down the ins and outs of time travel does two things for “Looper”: In the scene, it better emphasizes the priorities of the older character (played by Bruce Willis, who can’t help but exude no-bullshit urgency anyway); he’s there with a purpose, and he’s not about to waste time blabbing about the grandfather paradox. But outside of the scene, to the audience watching, the refusal to explain time travel also serves as a refusal to get caught up in explaining something beside the point....

Robbie said, “I was kind of like, oof, I need a break from Harley because she’s exhausting,” Robbie told EW. “I don’t know when we’re next going to see her. I’m just as intrigued as everyone else is.” Robbie’s interview with Entertainment Weekly took place in June, and the Oscar nominee appeared shocked when the discussion turned to Zack Snyder’s decision to kill Harley Quinn in the epilogue of “Zack Snyder’s Justice League....

“76 Days” On January 23, 2020 — nine months and a million lifetimes ago — the city of Wuhan, China, was placed under lockdown in an effort to choke out the coronavirus that had already made the densely populated capital of Hubei Province synonymous with of the worst pandemic in more than a century. During the 76 days that elapsed until the lockdown was lifted, Weixi Chen and an anonymous co-worker embedded themselves in the frontlines of history, as their footage was guided and edited by “The People’s Republic of Desire” filmmaker Hao Wu in New York....

Helicopter pilot Bret Hutchings told Salt Lake City broadcaster KSL-TV the monolith appeared planted by an anonymous person, with wildlife crew guessing the slab was constructed by an artist or fan of Kubrick’s science-fiction landmark. Hutchings quipped, “We were joking around that if one of us suddenly disappears, I guess the rest of us make a run for it…That’s been about the strangest thing that I’ve come across out there in all my years of flying....

Co-creator and executive producer Aziz Ansari will still appear in the series, but his main duties have shifted to writing and directing; he helms all five episodes and co-writes the scripts, as well. Can Season 3 capture the old spark that saw “Master of None” honored with three Emmy Awards and 12 nominations? Bonus Reason: Ansari’s investment in romance is far from a fleeting endeavor. The former “Parks and Recreation” goofball is much more serious about his studies in real-life, having published a research book titled “Modern Love” with American sociologist and New York University professor Eric Klinenberg shortly before “Master of None” Season 1 came out....
