The fourth annual Air | Water event was the largest Porsche gathering in Southern California. Featuring cars from every era, model, and engine type, over 800 Porsches were showcased. The actual number was likely over 1,000 when including cars parked in the paddock and overflow areas, where enthusiastic owners proudly displayed their vehicles.
With Fast & Furious 6, the series really shifted gears, embracing over-the-top action. Think Dom leaping across a bridge and Letty’s unbelievable return – you had to suspend disbelief completely! By this point, the movies had moved far beyond street racing or even the crew’s criminal activities, which originally funded their car obsession.
Whether binge-watching improves a show or not really depends on the type of program. Shows with simple, repeating storylines, like many police procedurals or comedies, can actually feel boring when watched all at once. However, shows built around unfolding mysteries – think series like Desperate Housewives, Lost, or Pretty Little Liars – often work well with binge-watching because you don’t have to wait as long to find out what happens.

For the last three years, Acket’s father has been filming what goes on in the studio, showing the many hours of testing and the technical problems that are part of Acket’s creative process.

Now, the roles are reversed: his father is the one recording Acket’s complicated installations, viewing his work with a loving, fatherly eye.
Before The Beekeeper 2 – which David Ayer isn’t directing – Jason Statham has teamed up with the Suicide Squad director for a new action thriller called John Doe.

Often, simply knowing the facts isn’t enough to truly understand how someone feels about a situation. Stories, especially fictional ones, can help us see things from another person’s perspective.
