Today on the 5: Having watched the first 2 of the 4 films in the Piotr Szulkin Apocalypse Tetralogy, I was fully ready to be delighted by the third film in the set. As I had expected, O-Bi, O-Ba: The End Of Civilization is another densley layered and visually entrancing masterwork.

Today on the 5: Now that the SAG-AFTRA strike has gone into full effect, we're starting to see both parties making their arguments on what they think the future of entertainment will look like. Regardless of who you feel is in the right, we're getting a rare glimpse into the inner workings of this industry.

Today on the 5: It occurred to me today that I haven't talked much about season 2 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, and we're just past the halfway point of the season! Time to correct that, because just like the first season I'm having a great time with this show!
