Conspiracy theorists have long held that Stanley Kubrick helped fake the 1969 moon landing under the direction of the U.S. government, and now his daughter Vivian has come out to blast the rumors as "a grotesque lie."

The official Alien Anthology Twitter account just teased another behind-the-scenes look at Alien: Covenant, this time with a brief, looping video that shows a special effects technician working on what appears to be a xenomorph claw:

Welcome to the inaugural episode of HitFix Harpy’s latest show, CVMT. Every day (more or less), I’ll be taking to Facebook Live to talk about (C)omics, (V)ideo Games, (M)ovies, and (T)elevison. Sometimes it’ll be news, sometimes a recommendation, occasionally a rant. Or — knowing me — oftentimes a rant.

Each episode will be available live on my Facebook Page! Or tune in here to find links with more information about the topics at hand!

With $381 million in the bank after just three weeks of release, Disney-Pixar's Finding Dory is not only on track to be the summer's highest-grossing film in North America but the animation studio's highest-grossing title of all time domestically (the current record holder, Toy Story 3, finished with $415 million in the U.S. and Canada). So does that mean we can expect Pixar to keep pumping out sequels to their old hits at the expense of original properties? Studio president Jim Morris says no.

Note: The below interview contains plot spoilers for The Neon Demon.

Over the long holiday weekend, I moved into a new apartment with my girlfriend. It’s been in the works for a while, and as well as we planned it, it still turned into a prohibitive amount of work. I’m worn down by how many times I’ve climbed the front and back steps of the new place, and by just how much work it was to get everything over here. Even after hiring movers, I still feel like I’ve been in constant motion, lifting and carrying every piece of media I own at some point, and while I remain steadfast in my belief that physical media is still the way to go, it took everything I had not to just set it all on fire and run screaming into the night at some point.

One of the few places where I’ve gone completely digital is with my gaming, and only since jumping from the PS3 to the XBox One. I like the entire XBox Live set-up. I like having a digital library I can rotate on and off the hard drive depending on what’s getting played and what’s not. I find it infinitely preferable to having an actual physical library of games, even though there’s no way for me to ever trade a game after buying it, something I did a fair amount of with the PS3 and older machines. By the time I reached the end of my ownership of the PS3, I think I had about 12 games in the house. I was using GameFly and renting games and I was pretty quick to abandon them if I was annoyed in any way.

Buying games digitally has changed my habits entirely. For one thing, I find myself buying older games that I played all the way through at least once, games I already know I love. And when new sequels to those games arrive, I’m likely to purchase those because I trust that I’ll enjoy the new game. That’s been true with recent games like Just Cause 3, Far Cry 4, Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate, Arkham Knight, and Fallout 4, and going back to games like Sleeping Dogs and Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag and Just Cause 2 has been terrific, a reminder of why I love games in the first place.

Nothing has me more excited, though, than the knowledge that I will be playing Red Dead Redemption on the XBox One this coming weekend. I just bought the game tonight for a whopping $7.49. That is an absurd price to pay for what I consider the best video game I’ve ever played. Or at the very least, my favorite. I adore that game. It was the perfect combination of gameplay mechanics I enjoyed, a story that I found truly interesting, and the first video game character whose death left me emotionally rattled. There are moments from playing Red Dead Redemption that I will never forget, and the way they feel for me is like actual memories, not something synthetic just enjoyed on a screen. The feeling of sitting on a horse’s back, at the top of a ridge, watching the sun come up over the desert below, or the sensation of defending a train as it’s being attacked, or the creeping realization that I’m dealing with a cannibal and there’s no one for miles around… those are such vivid and full sensory memories for me that it seems crazy to think it was simply part of a game.

I got excited last week because I found a page on the official XBox store’s website for the game, and I thought they had just quietly added it to the “backwards compatible” section. I went to Twitter and got all lathered up and some people gently informed me that I was, as I frequently am, a big overenthusiastic galoot, and completely wrong. I’m going to pretend that it was my enthusiasm that got XBox to finally add the title this coming Friday, July 8, and not just a coincidence. I’m pretty sure I’ve spoken about how much I’ve wanted this to happen at least a dozen times in the last two years.

Are there any older games you consider essential that aren’t currently available for whatever machine it is that you use for gaming? And have your buying habits changed at all with this current generation of game platforms?

Red Dead Redemption gallops into backwards compatibility for the XBox One on Friday. You will not be able to reach me until Monday.

Remember that giant statue of the Man of Steel in Superman v Batman? Well, on the Marvel side of things, Captain America is getting his own effigy, for real. Here’s hoping it won’t get defaced like Superman’s did (but, hey who knows what we can really hope for when you consider the latest revelation about Cap in the comics).

I've done this exercise before, and some of the same films made the list this time, but not all. America in 2016 is different than the America of 2002, and that's part of what I love about this country.

And make no mistake... I love this country. I believe America is a nation defined by contradictions. I am both cynical and idealistic about it, and I love it precisely because of the ways it breaks my heart. I am fully aware that one can only exist because of the other. With that in mind, here are ten films that, taken together, define the state of our union in the year 2016.         

While on the press tour for Swiss Army Man, Daniel Radcliffe has been gracious enough to discuss lots of Harry Potter questions. Not only has he admitted he'd be open to reprising his role as the Boy-Who-Lived, he's been reminiscing about his old castmates, and answering questions about magic from little kids.

People who dislike what they've seen so far from Paul Feig's Ghostbusters can't seem to stop talking about it and therefore those involved in the film  can't either. Director and producer of the original Ghostbusters, Ivan Reitman, has now weighed in on the backlash and thinks there's more to it than sexism.
