Having failed to defeat Aquaman the first time, Black Manta, still driven by the need to avenge his father’s death, will stop at nothing to take Aquaman down once and for all. This time Black Manta is more formidable than ever before, wielding the power of the mythic Black Trident, which unleashes an ancient and malevolent force. To defeat him, Aquaman will turn to his imprisoned brother Orm, the former King of Atlantis, to forge an unlikely alliance. Together, they must set aside their differences in order to protect their kingdom and save Aquaman’s family, and the world, from irreversible destruction.

They say a dog is a man’s best friend, but what if the man is a total dirtbag? In that case, it might be time for some sweet revenge, doggy style.

When Reggie (Will Ferrell), a naïve, relentlessly optimistic Border Terrier, is abandoned on the mean city streets by his lowlife owner, Doug (Will Forte), Reggie is certain that his beloved owner would never leave him on purpose.

But once Reggie falls in with a fast-talking, foul-mouthed Boston Terrier named Bug (Jamie Foxx), a stray who loves his freedom and believes that owners are for suckers, Reggie finally realizes he was in a toxic relationship and begins to see Doug for the heartless sleazeball that he is.

Determined to seek revenge, Reggie, Bug and Bug’s pals—Maggie (Isla Fisher), a smart Australian Shepherd who has been sidelined by her owner’s new puppy, and Hunter (Randall Park), an anxious Great Dane who’s stressed out by his work as an emotional support animal—together hatch a plan and embark on an epic adventure to help Reggie find his way home … and make Doug pay by biting off the appendage he loves the most. (Hint: It’s not his foot).

Doug is in a hospital bed, and a doctor is reviewing his injuries. The doctor reports about some of the minor injuries, and then mentions that they found an alarming amount of fecal bacteria in him. Doug confirms that it’s from the dog pooping on his face. The doctor quickly skims through a few more pages of his report, then offhandedly mentions that they couldn’t reattach his penis. The screen goes black, and then we hear Doug yell “FUCK!”.

Professor Pym, his wife Janet, Hope and Ant-Man are in a parking lot with a quantum tunnel that is in the back of Louis’s van. Ant-Man goes to gather some quantum healing particles for Ghost. Ant-Man gathers the particles and waits for the others to get him out of the Quantum Realm. The camera cuts back to the outside of the van where all the instruments and computers are there, but Professor Pym, Janet and Hope have turned to ash (because of the snap of Thanos). Ant-Man is heard calling for them over the radio to get him out.

In the action-comedy The Interview, Dave Skylark (James Franco) and his producer Aaron Rapoport (Seth Rogen) run the popular celebrity tabloid TV show Skylark Tonight. When they discover that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is a fan of the show, they land an interview with him in an attempt to legitimize themselves as journalists.
