The List for Friday, April 5th 2024

Welcome to The List,

Entertainment Weekly” put together a list of the 31 best sci-fi movies of ALL TIME.  Spoiler alert:  Not a single “Star Trek” film made the cut, sorry Trekkies.  (Not even “The Wrath of Khan”???) Movies that DID make the list?  At number 1 “2001: A Space Odyssey” (1968) “Alien” (1979) “Back to the Future” (1985) number 26  “Star Wars: Episode 5 — The Empire Strikes Back” (1980) and “WALL-E” (2008) came in last.

We got a first glimpse at Jelly Roll’s brand-new set of teeth.  His wife posted a video showing off his new smile.  The only question now is . . . should he keep them all white, or add back in the gold and diamond teeth?  At the end of the video, Bunnie asked him, “Are you gonna keep it without the golds and diamonds in?”  And Jelly thought to himself for a moment before pointing at the camera and saying, “You know what . . . y’all tell us.”

Jason Aldean will perform at the CMT Music Awards this Sunday, just months after they yanked his controversial video for “Try That in a Small Town”He’s doing “Let Your Boys Be Country, which is up for Video of the Year.

KISS has sold its music catalog, name, logo, and image and likeness rights to a company called Pophouse Entertainment.  They’re developing a hologram show, a documentary, and a biopic.

The List for Tuesday, February 24th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Megan Moroney just proved she’s either the nicest person in country music… or she has zero bedtime. She told fans at her Meet Me on Cloud 9 pop-up show she’d sign something for every single person there. And she actually did it. CDs, vinyl, whatever you had, Megan stayed until the job was done. Meanwhile, if one person asks me for directions at Target, I fake a phone call and walk away.

Jelly Roll just announced his brand new tour and the name alone deserves a standing ovation. It’s called the ‘Little Ass Shed Tour’. Yes, that’s real. He just finished the Big Ass Stadium Tour with Post Malone, so now he’s downsizing… slightly. These “sheds” still pack in 10 to 15 thousand fans a night. So congrats Jelly, you’re officially too big for arenas, but still emotionally attached to lawn seating.

-----

Travis Kelce might be taking a pay cut if he plays another NFL season. He made 17 million last year, but reports say next year could be closer to 13 million. Which means he may have to tighten the budget a little. Maybe fewer vacations, fewer commercials, and only one diamond-covered cereal commercial instead of two. Thoughts and prayers during this difficult financial hardship.

-----

Tom Hanks is officially playing Abraham Lincoln in a new movie, and apparently it’s personal. Ancestry.com says Hanks is actually Lincoln’s 16th cousin. The movie will mix live action and stop motion animation, which sounds like Lincoln meets Toy Story. If Tom Hanks shows up in a top hat and says “There’s a snake in my boot,” I’m buying tickets.
