From the incredible miniatures to the "Sushi Scene," Isle of Dogs was one of the most ambitious stop-motion films ever made. To truly appreciate the insane scope of the project, Puppet Master Andy Gent describes the process behind crafting each figure and creating every scene.
"All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed."

Based on a novel of the same name, Watership Down became an animated classic in 1978, and 40 years later, the BBC is bringing it to a new audience in computer-animated form.

Duke Cannon's Father's Day lineup leans into the brand's familiar formula of oversized grooming essentials, military-inspired packaging, and unapologetically rugged scent profiles, but beneath the tongue-in-cheek attitude sits a genuinely practical collection of daily-use upgrades. The gift guide ranges from heavyweight Big Ass Bricks of Soap and bourbon-forward beard care to colognes, tactical shower bundles, and shave kits built for dads who prefer utility over luxury-brand vanity. Everything arrives wrapped in Duke Cannon's signature blue-collar aesthetic, balancing humor with legitimately solid formulations made for hard-working skin, dry hands, and low-maintenance routines. It is less about reinventing grooming and more about turning everyday basics into something that feels giftable, durable, and distinctly masculine.
With Porsche's unrivaled racing history, it should come as no surprise that all five of the five most expensive cars from Stuttgart are race cars or thinly-disguised race cars for the road. Host Ted Gushue has the enviable job getting a front-row seat to the best Porsche has ever offered as he counts down the most valuable cars ever from the manufacturer.
For 71 years, the Targa Florio saw some of the fastest purpose-built race cars in the world thunder through towns and villages on the Italian island of Sicily, all on winding public roads that dated back to the Roman Empire. Safety was the nearly the last thing on anyone's mind until the race was deemed too dangerous and stopped in 1977. But for seven decades, it brought some of the greatest names in racing to the island for one of the most unforgettable races in history.
Best-selling author John Grisham's only true-crime novel is, in his own words, unbelievable if it were a work of fiction.

The Innocent Man comes to Netflix December 14, 2018.
There are few higher honors in the Windy City of Chicago, Illinois than having a bronze likeness installed in the United Center. Michael Jordan, Scotty Pippen, Steve Kerr, and other Chicago greats are all there, and now a new figure has taken their place among the greats — Nick Offerman. Only this statue has a twist — its Nick Offerman himself.
Built for long days that start in the surf and end somewhere near the bar, Brixton's latest trunk lineup balances heritage styling with modern performance without leaning too hard into either. The Blitz Boardshort is the more aggressive option, a lightweight stretch trunk cut from quick-dry polyester and spandex with a water-repellent finish, invisible zip pocket, drainage eyelet, and bold graphic treatments that push beyond the standard washed-out beach palette. Available in both 19-inch and 21-inch outseams, it is engineered to move cleanly from paddle-outs to pool decks with minimal fuss. Countering it is the Classic Trunk 17", a stripped-back staple with clean lines, minimal branding, and an easy shorter cut that feels rooted in vintage surf culture while still delivering dependable quick-dry performance. Together, the collection hits the sweet spot between technical utility and everyday wearability, exactly where Brixton tends to do its best work.
RiseGuide is bringing AI coaching to one of the most anxiety-inducing modern skills: public speaking.

Built into RiseGuide's Charisma Mastery program, the feature feels less like another passive self-help tool and more like a speaking coach that fits in your pocket, helping users sharpen clarity, cadence, and presence through real-time analysis and repetition.
Imad Khachan, owner of Chess Forum in New York City, didn't intend to run a chess shop — the last one in New York. He intended to get a Ph.D. in American literature and teach or write, but what we set out to do and what actually happens are rarely the same. A Lebanese refugee, Imad recalls coming to America, what it means to him, and what his store means to the community he calls home.
