  • Among those targeted was comedian Kathy Griffin who was trolling the ceo by changing her twitter handle to be Elon musk.

  • I died laughing now, I hope you die.

  • Alright, well, here to share her hot takes with us today is watch mojo very own Phoebe Phoebe, we're starting with Elon musk.

  • What do you make of this whole twitter mess, Oh God mess is a, is a, is a light word to say about this whole disaster, I just think that everything happened so quickly.

  • Um you know the massive layoffs and now they're asking people to come back.

  • It's just, I predict, you know that it'll kind of go bankrupt within the year.

  • Honestly, it's just that bad reality might be a video game and we're all just computer simulations being played by a teenager and another planet.

  • That's great.

  • Okay, well moving on to movie news as the highly anticipated black panther, Wakanda forever is finally upon us for the surface world.

  • Also upon us is the film's rotten tomatoes.

  • Critics score, the movie currently boasts an impressive 94% rating, while the first installment had a 96% score.

  • All of us very much believed that this feels like the most important movie we've ever made.

  • That is what every crew member focused on every day.

  • Movie fans and film experts alike are already speculating whether Wakanda forever can follow in its predecessor's footsteps and receive coveted Oscar nominations and the Oscar goes to Ludovic and don't forget Phoebe the 2019 Black panther film was the first superhero movie to make it on the Oscar Best picture nomination list.

  • Can it do it again?

  • Yes, I definitely think so.

  • Although I will concede that I think the magic of the first movie was kind of all about Chadwick Boseman and his performance.

  • I do still think that there's a big chance that they'll be nominated once again for special effects just because even the trailer, it just looks so amazing.

  • Alright, okay, sticking with movie news as the boy who lives may ride again.

  • That's because executives at Warner Brothers Discovery have said they are very interested in making new harry potter movies, yep.

  • During a Q three earnings call Ceo David Zaslav says the company will be putting a real focus on franchises and would definitely revisit the world of harry potter.

  • Should author J.

  • K.

  • Rowling come up with new material.

  • It is the view of the ministry that a theoretical knowledge will be sufficient to get you through your examinations, which after all is what school is all about.

  • Rowling however, continues to court controversy after more than a few condemnations for being transphobic, seemingly poked fun at the non gendered language.

  • I'm sure there used to be a word for the people.

  • Someone help me out one bin and she wrote the last harry potter movie was 10 plus years ago plus the Fantastic Beast series flopped.

  • Fyvie, is this the right time to bring back the Boy Wizard?

  • And should they include J.

  • K.

  • Rowling in this whole thing?

  • Oh my goodness!

  • I feel like regardless of what happens this franchise is a cash cow.

  • Um And you know despite the fact that fantastic beasts was just the quality was so terrible.

  • Um I think that it will continue to make money regardless, but I definitely don't think that any of the original cast would come back just because they've been so vocal about disagreeing with J.

  • K.

  • Rollings.

  • Strange politics.

  • There's something about harry potter that makes life richer.

  • It's a strong bond that will always happen.

  • Okay Phoebe.

  • Moving on to Pete Davidson as the fan favorite funnyman will be taking a little break from acting, doing, doing, doing, doing, doing, doing, doing, doing.

  • Oh my God, this is amazing.

  • The hiatus follows news of an on set meltdown where Pete allegedly threw candles, coffee and even a tv around in his trailer.

  • Oh yeah, why don't you try me?

  • This ain't gonna go how you think it's going to go get the incident took place during production of the action comedy series for peacock titled Bupkis, where Pete Davidson serves as its star, co writer and executive producer Phoebe.

  • Do you think he's okay?

  • Should fans be worried about Pete?

  • Um I think that Pete Davidson has been subject to a lot of negative press over the past couple of years.

  • First of all, his quick engagement and you know, break up with Ariana Grande and his relationship with kim K and his very public feud with Kanye West and so you know, I just really hope for his sake that he takes the time that he needs to kind of heal and come back better than ever.

  • Keep talking like that and you'll be sleeping with the fishes.

  • That's a death threat in a newspaper.

  • Who does that?

  • What are you?

  • The zodiac?

  • Alright, well, last for us on this week's Hollywood headlines as news regarding shows that have been renewed and canceled.

  • Everybody, I got bad news, we've been canceled.

  • Oh no, Peter, how could they do that?

  • Okay.

  • First for the bad news.

  • As fans of Westworld were dealt a shocking blow with the announcement that the HBO series would not be returning for 1/5 season.

  • Do those 54 Emmy nominations mean nothing, You've forgotten who you are?

  • We're not here to transcend, We're here to destroy.

  • Meanwhile Netflix has given the green light to a pair of second seasons one.

  • The Ryan Murphy helmed the mystery thriller, the watcher.

  • We could've been friends, I got my eye on you.

  • If you care about your family, you're gonna get out of that house.

  • The second renewal was awarded to the other Ryan Murphy led mini series monster, Although Jeffrey Dahmer will not be the subject this go round.

  • I know, but nobody heard me All right, Phoebe two Things 1st.

  • What went wrong with Westworld?

  • Oh my goodness.

  • Um So a couple of years back, we actually did a recap series for every episode of Westworld season two and I found that it was the most difficult tv show to actually sit through because it just became so convoluted.

  • Like I really liked the first season but I find we started getting into this meta kind of confusing, complicated storyline.

  • Alright.

  • Number two, is it a good idea for now.

  • Netflix to continue with their monster series.

  • Of course it will be an anthology series going forward in the episode where they gave like a lot of screen time to john wayne Gacy.

  • I said to my husband, I was like, they're gonna make a cinematic universe out of this, that's why they're doing this.

  • And then like two days later they announced it.

  • Um I have a bit of an ethical issue with creating like this like franchise of television based on real life, see real killers as we've seen with the backlash of bomber.

  • There are real world effects for the victims families when this kind of thing kind of gets re brought up in media.

  • And so I think we just as a society need to re examine our relationship to to true crime and also just re examine the ethics of it overall Phoebe.

  • I can't thank you enough for joining me today and breaking this all down.

  • Oh, thank you so much for having me.

alright everyone, we begin with the ongoing saga surrounding Elon musk's twitter acquisition, that seems a little bit like either superhero or super villain, you have to choose one trying to do useful things.
