Nickelodeon announced that the beloved 90s cartoon is getting a television re-launch with a 26 episode order. There is also a live-action movie with CGI characters on the way. I love the Rugrats with every fiber of my being and am looking forward to a cartoon revival. Not really digging a live action movie though. Here’s a question, is the new Rugrats revival going to be like a direct continuation (ie with Kimi, and Dill) or are restarting the whole show from the beginning but with smartphones like in the recent comics? How do you feel about Rugrats getting a television re-launch and a live-action movie? https://t.co/e4bHR7GPQX — Twitter Moments (@TwitterMoments) July 17, 2018
Source: Marvel / Disney It was expected but Marvel now owns the highest grossing opening weekend (again) as Avengers: Endgame not only became the fastest film to a number of box-office benchmarks, it may well be the biggest movie of all-time. OPENING WEEKEND RECORD: Deadline is reporting that the film from Anthony and Joe Russo is set to make $358.5 million over its three-day opening weekend and could be even more as Sunday totals are finalized. It already set the single day opening record of $158.3 million on Friday and early preview screenings of $60 million on Thursday. The previous owner of the single-day and opening records was Star Wars: The Force Awakens which made $119 million. Endgame beat that by $39.2 million. Avengers: Infinity War held the Saturday record with $82.1 million and Endgame topped that by $29.3 million. Endgame ‘s Friday outstrips Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ previous opening and single-day record of $119.1M by $39.2M, and Saturday beats Avengers: Infinity War ‘s previous Saturday record of $82.1M by $29.3M. DISNEY RECORD: With it’s $350 million-plus intake, Endgame becomes the fifth Disney movie to crack $200 million in its opening weekend and the fourth movie within the Marvel Cinematic Universe to do so. The other two Disney movies? Star Wars: The Last Jedi and Star Wars: The Force Awakens . The only non-Disney movie in the top 5 in terms of opening weekends? Jurassic World in 2015. INTERNATIONAL RECORD: The film picked up $859 million from international audiences (with China accounting for $330 million) for a record-demolishing $1.2 billion worldwide weekend. That already gives Endgame the 18th highest global gross ever, right behind the $1.21 billion worldwide finish of Iron Man 3 . Expect the numbers to keep getting crazy as fans go back for repeat viewings.

Professional wrestling may be fake, but one thing is now certain: The love between one person who makes a living in this business and another veteran cast member on Jersey Shore is very much real. It has now been confirmed on Instagram. Just one day after Jenni Farley’s new and mysterious boyfriend was identified as Zack Clayton Carpinello , the woman best known as “JWOWW” stopped sharing mere glimpses of her young lover and started to reveal his face to the world. And we can’t blame her. What a handsome face it is! “Stuck in traffic trying to get to Harry Potter World,” Farley wrote as a caption to a video of herself getting a kiss on the forehead from Carpinello last Friday. We took the above screen capture of the couple from this romantic footage. Thankfully, it appears as if Farley and Carpinello did eventually reach their fun destination, as the former went ahead and posted the following picture a short while later. “Best day ever @universalorlando,” she wrote as a caption to this second snapshot, adding: “I’ve been waiting 11 years to come back here and I’ve been dying to go to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. I can’t wait to come back with my kids when they’re big enough #readyforuniversal.” And once Farley finally came fully clean and flaunted photos of herself and Carpinello on social media… she couldn’t stop herself! She kept sharing more and more and more and more, another one of which we’ve published here: Over the past couple weeks, Farley has strongly hinted that she’s involved with someone new. She previously teased the romance via a handful of date night pictures, none of which actually featured Carpinello’s name or face. But JWOWW did discuss the relationship on a podcast with Snooki last week, confirming that her lover was only 24 years old and that he was making her very happy. Farley also stated that Carpinello will at least be a subject of discussion on the new season of Jersey Shore; and it sounds like he may even make some appearances. The reality star filed for divorce from Roger Mathews last September. Things quickly turned ugly after a verbal altercation in the estranged couple’s home led to Jenni obtaining a restraining order against Roger. Since then, she has accused her husband of assault and abuse, while he has fired back that she’s a liar and a phony. It’s been pretty uncomfortable to watch, but at least the bickering exes put their anger aside and spent Easter together with their two young kids last weekend. View Slideshow: Roger Mathews Pens Letter to Jenni Farley, Admits to Abuse “She is happy and she does not care anymore about what Roger, or anyone else, thinks,” an insider tells Us Weekly, elaborating as follows: “She is not going to live her life in fear and it is nice to be with someone who makes her feel beautiful. Zack is a breath of fresh air for Jenni and she is definitely on a pink cloud right now.” At least publicly, however, Mathews is taking the high road right now. “He seems like a terrific guy and they seem to really be happy, and I’m very happy for them,” Mathews told Page Six of Carpinello three days ago.

Source: Chicago Tribune / Getty R. Kelly’s Lawyers Claim He Missed His Civil Court Case Because He Doesn’t Know How To Read According to TMZ , R. Kelly’s legal team is fighting a default judgment granted to one of his alleged victims because the R&B legend can’t really read. Earlier this week, Kelly lost a civil lawsuit in which he was accused of sexually abusing an underage girl in the late 1990s . The 52-year-old singer failed to respond to appear in court & respond to the lawsuit, which led a Cook County judge to issue a default judgment for the plaintiff. Zaid Abdallah and Raed Shalabi, are now claiming the singer’s “learning disability” prevented him from reading the court documents and taking proper action. “[Kelly] suffers from a learning disability that adversely affects his ability to read,” legal documents state, “… in essence he cannot.” A damages hearing for the case will take place on May 8. Kelly’s attorneys are asking that the default judgment be set aside so that they can fight the plaintiff’s claims.

Jamycheal Mitchell died in his cell at the Hampton Roads Jail in Virginia, 3 months after he was arrested for allegedly stealing $5 worth of candy from a 7-Eleven. Conditions at the jail are so bad, the local sheriff now refuses to send arrestees there. https://t.co/vYvhKfdaEn — The Appeal (@theappeal) April 16, 2019 Family Of Jamycheal Mitchell Reaches $3 Million Settlement, Hampton Roads Regional Jail Being Investigated The family of a Virginia man who died in jail has been granted a settlement. Jamycheal Mitchell passed away at the Hampton Roads Regional Jail in Portsmouth, Virginia, on August 19, 2015. He was behind bars for months after he was arrested on charges of trespass and petit larceny for allegedly stealing a 2-liter bottle of Mountain Dew, a king size Snickers bar and a Zebra Cake which accumulated to about $5 worth of snacks from a 7-Eleven. The Appeal recently released an extensive story about Jamycheal’s alleged abuse in the jail. The website notes that Jaymycheal was ordered to receive mental health treatment after he was declared unfit to stand trial. The Virginia man had a history of severe mental disability including a diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder. The treatment did not happen however and he was incarcerated at the Portsmouth correctional facility up until his death. He was allegedly treated poorly all the way up to his demise. “While incarcerated at the jail, correctional officers allegedly struck Mitchell on the knuckles with a flashlight, hurled profanities, mocked him, and called him “dirty,” all as punishment for being uncooperative. When Mitchell was found dead in his cell in August 2015, he was covered in urine. Portsmouth’s chief medical examiner said the cause of death was a “probable cardiac arrhythmia accompanying wasting syndrome of unknown etiology.” His family settled lawsuits against the jail and NaphCare, the company that provided medical services for the jail, for approximately $3 million. Now Hampton Roads Regional jail is continuing to be investigated and the DOJ threatened to sue them if they did not improve conditions in particular for those with mental health issues. The DOJ also criticized the incarceration of 62 people with severe mental illness at Hampton Roads who had booking histories of “minor offenses,” such as shoplifting, trespassing, and violating their probation. Unfortunately, the DOJ’s yet to take action, a delay that could possibly be in part because of the government shutdown. The Appeal reports; “In its December 2018 report, the DOJ gave the jail just over a month and a half to implement its recommendations. The agency also said it would sue if the jail did not “satisfactorily” improve its conditions during that time period. But when the deadline passed in February, the federal government had just emerged from the longest shutdown in history. As of early this month, the DOJ had not followed through on its threat to sue Hampton Roads. (The agency did not respond to The Appeal’s request for comment.) The jail continues to work with the DOJ on its recommendations, Hackworth said. He told The Appeal that he is awaiting more clarity from the agency on its more than 40 recommended remediations, such as auditing of administrative records regularly for completeness and accuracy, ensuring there are improved intake screenings and health assessments, and ending restrictive housing for people who say they are suicidal.” Now The Virginian Pilot reports that an unfortunate fight has broken out between Jamychael’s family members for the settlement money. Jamycheal’s mother’s side of the family is reportedly fighting with his father’s side. “The mother’s side argues they were closer to Jamycheal and deserve most, if not all, of the money. The mother believes she should receive the “majority,” with the half sister receiving a “reasonable” portion. The maternal half-sister wants an equal split between the two. The father’s side said they were all equally close to him. Therefore, they believe they should all receive equal portions: about $215,000 a person. We pray that Jamycheal’s family finds some middle ground and that the DOJ continues to look into a facility where 68 in-custody deaths took place between 2003 and 2018.
Source: MediaPunch/Bauer-Griffin / Contributor/Splash / Getty Nene Leakes Sends Porsha Williams A Cease And Desist Chiiilllle, the Real Housewives of Atlanta drama just won’t let up. We’ve watched Nene Leakes and Porsha Williams ‘ beef for most of the season and the reunion episodes, and now they’re beef has reached court document level — at least according to Porsha. The new mom told PEOPLE that after she took to Instagram to share screenshots of Nene fat-shaming her while pregnant, Leakes sent her a cease and desist letter. “After that whole Instagram back and forth that she started with me, she ended up sending me a cease and desist. So once she sent me a cease and desist, at that point, I was like, ‘You know what? This is just a sure sign that I should be done with the relationship.’ So I’m over it. I’m concentrating on my baby girl. And people who love and support me at this moment.” You may recall that in the lethal texts, Nene called Porsha a “lying a** big fat hungry b***h” and a “big piggy with the busted shape.” The Swag shop owner has made it clear that she’s no longer friends with any of the girls on the show, and judging by her taking matters to court, it’s probably safe to say she won’t be sippin’ tea with the ladies anytime soon. Thoughts?

TheJasmineBrand reported in 2017 that Shekinah was upset and stopped speaking to Tiny. “Shekinah is one of those friends that when she’s not friends with you anymore, she doesn’t want any of her other friends to speak to them. She wants everyone to cut them off.” Before their fallout, the “Tiny and Shekinah’s Weave Trip” stars were said to be working on a late-night talk show. What do YOU think about Tiny and Shekinah on “The Real”?
