Slow motion in film isn't anything new, but a great sequence never gets old. It can help convey a dramatic event or capture the fine details in an action shot. It even makes a simple walk down the hallway look badass. From the elevator scene in The Shining to anything in The Matrix, here are some of the greatest slow-mo movie moments.
Fake news is nothing new — just check the rack at the checkout next time you're at the grocery store. What is new is media juggernaut Facebook and algorithms making decisions on advertising. And while this brave new world of fake news and machine decision making is distressing, it isn't quite the scapegoat many people would like you to believe. Vox looks at the impact of fake news in the 2016 election, and learns that the mainstream media's influence is as much to blame as Hillary Clinton's adopted alien baby.

It's the unicorn of fast-food burgers — the Big Kahuna from Pulp Fiction. While the Big Kahuna in the film might very well be a tasty burger, Andrew Rea wasn't content with a usual burger. Andrew puts his own tropical spin on the sandwich that is deserving of the name Big Kahuna.

Running 26.2 miles is a lot different than tackling your local charity 5K. To accommodate the needs of marathon runners, Nike created the Alphafly line, now in its third generation. It employs two types of Zoom cushioning — a high-stack ZoomX foam midsole that encourages a smooth transition and Air Zoom units in the forefoot for an energy return boost. A wide, full-length carbon fiber Flyplate improves forward propulsion, and the breathable Atomknit 3.0 upper is paired with a lacing system designed with racer input to enhance comfort.

Thanks to a reverse-translation of a Chinese bootleg and the dedication of GratefulDeadpool, one of the biggest box-office disappointments is now a fine film in its own right. Watch the entire film here.
