-- Shares Facebook Twitter Reddit Email Ben Stiller doesn’t think “Zoolander 2” deserved the negative reception from critics and audience members alike. The actor shared his thoughts about the 2016 sequel while eating extra spicy chicken wings on the season 25 finale of “Hot Ones.” When asked by host Sean Evans which of his movies “was most misunderstood or treated unfairly by critics, now with the benefit of hindsight,” Stiller named “Zoolander 2” after some thought. “Oh, man, I don't know,” Stiller told Evans. “I mean, look, it's very hard to analyze why critics like something or don't. I'm always surprised when critics love something and I'm always surprised when they hate something because it's so subjective.” The comedy-action flick currently has a 22% rating from critics and a 20% rating from viewers on Rotten Tomatoes . “It’s hard to think that it was that bad that people didn’t like it that much,” Stiller added. “But maybe I'm wrong.” Related SNL: Robert De Niro & Ben Stiller play Mueller and Cohen in "Meet the Parents" parody This isn’t the first time Stiller has opened up about “Zoolander 2” being a complete flop. In 2022, Stiller told Esquire in an interview that the film’s poor reception and performance was “not a great experience.” That negativity, however, was redirection for Stiller who steered clear of comedies to direct Showtime’s crime drama series “Escape at Dannemora.” “If ‘Zoolander 2’ had been a huge hit, and then people were saying ‘Zoolander 3! Do this movie! That movie!’ — that might have taken me off the road of having the space to work on developing ‘Dannemora,’” Stiller told the outlet. “I might have gotten distracted by other bright, shiny objects, but instead it opened a path where I could just do what I’d honestly wanted to do for years and years, which was: just direct something!” he continued. “To say, I’m just going to work on this project that I want to work on, because it takes a little time to get these things going, and if you don’t stick with it, you don’t get there.” Most recently, Stiller told audience members at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival that he hadn't starred in a lead movie role in seven years before his latest film “Nutcrackers.” Elsewhere in his “Hot Ones” interview, Stiller revealed that he delivered a speech to the MPAA when they wanted to bump up the rating of “Zoolander” from PG-13 to R over a goat orgy scene.

I wrote, like, a little speech and I had to go through it all. I think I had to talk about other movies that had come out that had worse things in them.” As for the final decision, the 2001 film includes an orgy, sans goat. “This was a real thing. It was nerve-racking because it was so important,” Stiller said. “When you have a comedy and you have jokes that you know work, the last thing you want to do is have to cut them for a rating.” In the end, Stiller conquered the infamous Wings of Death.

Washington (Reuters): Republican President-elect Donald Trump said on Saturday he wanted former National Security official and loyalist Kash Patel to lead the FBI, signaling an intent to drive out the bureau's current director, Christopher Wray. Patel, who during Trump's first term advised both the director of national intelligence and the secretary of defense, has previously called for stripping the FBI of its intelligence-gathering role and purging its ranks of any employee who refuses to support Trump's agenda. "The biggest problem the FBI has had, has come out of its intel shops. I'd break that component out of it. I'd shut down the FBI Hoover building on day one and reopen it the next day as a museum of the deep state," Patel said in a September interview on the conservative Shawn Ryan Show. "And I'd take the 7,000 employees that work in that building and send them across America to chase down criminals. Go be cops. You're cops. Go be cops." With the nomination of Patel, Trump is signaling that he is preparing to carry out his threat to oust Wray, a Republican first appointed by Trump, whose 10-year term at the FBI does not expire until 2027. Asked about Patel's nomination, which will need Senate confirmation, an FBI spokesperson said on Saturday: "Every day, the men and women of the FBI continue to work to protect Americans from a growing array of threats. Director Wray's focus remains on the men and women of the FBI, the people we do the work with, and the people we do the work for." He made an unannounced visit to Florida on Friday to meet with the U.S. President-elect. FBI directors by law are appointed to 10-year terms as a means of insulating the bureau from politics. Wray, whom Trump tapped after firing James Comey in 2017 for investigating his 2016 campaign, has been a frequent target of Trump supporters' ire. During Wray's tenure, the FBI carried out a court-approved search at Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate to look for classified documents and he has also faced criticism for his oversight role of a directive by Attorney General Merrick Garland aimed at working to protect local school boards from violent threats and harassment.

The victory ended Getafe's five-game winless run and lifted them into 15th place in the 20-team standings. Valladolid remain second from bottom. In the buildup to the match, Getafe sporting director Rubén Reyes described the game as a final, but his team was lucky not to go behind as Valladolid created more of the early chances. However, the home side took control in the 69th minute when substitute Álvaro Rodríguez got the opener. Three minutes later, man-of-the-match Allan Nyom made it 2-0. "There's been a lot of games where we've run and fought but lost or drawn," Nyom, the veteran Cameroon full back, said. "A game that reflects the effort we've put in in training is very welcome." Adding to Valladolid's woes, coach Paulo Pezzolano was sent off before half-time. The Uruguayan has the league's worst disciplinary record, with seven yellow cards before Friday's red.

Ulrika Richardson, the UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator for Haiti, said that offering Haiti’s young people alternatives to gang life and strengthening local institutions are key for the French-speaking Caribbean nation to “reclaim its position as a symbol of hope.” The UN said Haiti is faced with a multifaceted crisis, including rising gang violence, political instability, the displacement of over 700,000 people, as well as widespread hunger. The United Nations Children’s Fund, UNICEF, has reported a sharp increase in the recruitment of minors by armed gangs, with the number of child recruits rising by 70 per cent in the past year. “There has been a terrifying escalation of violence in certain parts of Haiti, which is tearing at the very fabric of society,” Richardson said. “There have been horrific massacres in the last three months of the year both in the capital Port-au-Prince, but also in near-by l’Artibonite. These brutal acts of dehumanisation will only deepen the collective trauma of the Haitian people,” she said. “We cannot ignore this reality. We must centre these horrific events in our response, urgently expanding mental health and psychosocial support programmes, and integrating them into our long-term plan for stability. “As the UN, we are committed to staying in Haiti to help the most vulnerable people through the current crisis,” Richardson added. She said people currently in extremely vulnerable situations, particularly in Port-au-Prince, must be protected. “This means supporting the hundreds of thousands of internally displaced people,” she said. The UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator noted that families have fled their homes, often multiple times. “We can start to imagine the magnitude of the wound they carry, and we must ensure they live in decent conditions. At the moment, security is a prerequisite before addressing humanitarian challenges and then looking at a durable recovery,” said Richardson. Richardson said the UN is not giving up hope in Haiti. “Of course, we are hoping that the situation improves,” she said. “We will never give up hope, and are working closely with the government, transitional authorities, civil society, and the private sector to make 2025 a better year than 2024.” Despite strong leadership from Kenya with the non-UN multinational security support mission (MSS), which the UN “really” applauds, Richardson said the mission is still in a pre-deployment phase “because of a lack of sufficient funding from the international community.” “We have received important contributions, but they are very limited, so much more is needed,” she said, disclosing that additional support is on the way. “We have just heard that the MSS [mission] will receive more uniformed personnel and equipment,” she said. “This move underscores the continued commitment to enhancing security in the country, a critical step toward advancing both humanitarian and development efforts in Haiti”. -30-Furthermore, the developers have hinted at a special surprise for fans who tune in to The Game Awards live stream.

TikTok asks federal appeals court to bar enforcement of potential ban until Supreme Court review TikTok on Monday asked a federal appeals court to bar the Biden administration from enforcing a law that could lead to a ban on the popular platform until the Supreme Court reviews the case. The legal filing was made after a panel of judges on the same court sided with the government last week and ruled that the law, which requires TikTok to divest from its China-based parent company or face a ban as soon as next month, was constitutional. If the law is not overturned, both TikTok and its parent company ByteDance have said the popular app will shut down by mid-January.

Earlier on Thursday, a Special POCSO Court in Kalyan town sent Vishal Gawli and his wife Sakshi Gawli to police custody for a week till January 2 in connection with the alleged rape and murder of a 13-year-old girl who was reported missing since Monday. Thane district was rocked by a sensational sex crime perpetrated on the girl, who had stepped out of her home to buy some provisions but then went 'missing' till her body was found on December 25 (Wednesday). Coming nearly five months after the Badlapur sexual assault on two nursery class girls in August, this is the second case that has sparked outrage with people demanding the death penalty for the alleged perpetrators -- Vishal Gawli, 35, and his wife Sakshi Gawli, 25. Vishal Gawli is accused of kidnapping the girl from near her home, forcibly taking her in an autorickshaw to his house, assaulting, raping, killing and then dumping her body near a cemetery in the neighbouring Bhiwandi town, nearly 8 km away. As the girl failed to return home for several hours, the family had lodged a missing complaint and a probe had started on Monday night, with the needle of suspicion pointing at the Gawli couple after the girl's body was found. The Thane Police formed six teams to hunt him down, but Vishal Gawli had already fled to Shegaon in Buldhana district, where his in-laws reside. There, he was spotted in a crowded restaurant through CCTV footage buying liquor, and the Shegaon police caught up with him in a local hair-cutting salon where he had gone for a clean shave, ostensibly to conceal his identity.
