The idea for The Pentaverate dates back to 1993—and so too does its humor. Based on a riff from 1993’s So I Married an Axe Murderer, Mike Myers’ six-part Netflix series (out today) is a return to the former Saturday Night Live star’s Peter Sellers-ish comedic roots, affording him the opportunity to play a variety of disparate characters with prosthetic-make-up faces and exaggerated accents. It’s a routine that once paid blockbuster dividends via the Austin Powers franchise but has been DOA since 2008’s disastrous The Love Guru. Nonetheless, time hasn’t dimmed Myers’ enthusiasm for this particular brand of nonsense, which is unfortunate given that his latest is a tiresome compendium of half-formed characters, weak social commentary and so many groan-worthy penis and poop… Source link

As Iris and Sue are menaced by the ghostly Eddie at Sue’s apartment in Coast City, Team Flash has problems of their own at Central… Source link

What happens when science goes wrong, and humankind’s technological hubris causes global calamity? Usually, the credits roll, these types of scenarios are almost always science fiction. But, since it’s black hole week at NASA, we thought we’d have a little fun imagining the complete and accidental annihilation of our planet. Back in the 1930s, there was a brief moment when some of the physicists working with Einstein on the atom bomb stopped to wonder if exploding such a device would end up lighting the Earth’s atmosphere on fire and destroying the entire planet. The team did some quick math and decided it wasn’t likely, and that was the end of that. But that didn’t stop some folks in the media from running with the story after one of the men… Source link

But the holy institution didn’t listen then (nor does it listen now) and hence, to influence world events, their secret society, ‘The Pentaverate’, came into existence, which has been running in the shadows for 7 centuries or so. The society has 5 board members on its decision panel, and thus it got its name, “Penta-verate.” Each of these five members is kidnapped from the “normie” world,… Source link
