We’re a little disappointed in ‘Jeopardy!’ contestant James, as he seemed to think that Fall out Boy was Panic! At The Disco.
PATD even tweeted out how they ‘made’ it.
hey look ma, we…… made it?!? 🤦♂️😜

To which Fall Out Boy responded with:
i’ll take “you’ll get ‘em next time, James” for $500, Alex https://t.co/fXfMmK342B
— Fall Out Boy (@falloutboy) April 24, 2019
But even though he got that one wrong, James Holzhauer won $90,812 Monday night!
The Naperville native even broke another record Tuesday night by surpassing $1 million in the shortest time ever. His $118,816 win put his total take at $1,061,554 million after 14 games.
So even though he confused Panic! At The Disco and Fall Out Boy, we do have to shout out the talents of this man.
At Monday’s Los Angeles premiere of “Avengers: Endgame”, Mark Ruffalo found out that he and fellow Marvel star Brie Larson were both in the 2004 movie “13 Going on 30”.
He was shockingly surprised to find out she was during an interview with Entertainment Tonight.
Fun fact #1: Brie Larson was in ‘13 Going on 30’ with Mark Ruffalo
Fun fact #2: He was just as shook as we were! 😭 #AvengersEndgame pic.twitter.com/nMXs26vOJp

But it does make sense he didn’t know, they never appeared on screen together. But common, she was one of the six chicks!

Granted it’s has been 15 years since the movie came out, let’s just hope he doesn’t forget they were in the Avengers together.
Lovelytheband has tossed out a video for their latest song “Maybe, I’m Afraid” which tugs on all the feels. Well done, boys! -wALT
Are you excited for Avengers: Endgame to come out on Friday. You need to make sure you’re up to speed with who’s who, because apparently, there are a lot of superheroes these days. The cast is here to help you out with musical cliff notes sung to Billy Joel’s “We Didn’t Start The Fire” which aired on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Enjoy! -wALT

When J.B. Pritkzer was elected as Governor in 2018, there was lots of speculation as to how long it would take to pass the marijuana legalization legislation he talked about in his campaign. Illinois already has legalized marijuana for medical use, but recreational use has a lot more road blocks.
According to WTTW, those hold ups included \”how to decide who is eligible for a license to grow and sell cannabis; whether individuals will be permitted to grow marijuana at home; whether there’s anywhere individuals should be allowed to use, smoke or otherwise take cannabis outside the home; how to handle expunging the criminal records for offenders found guilty of possessing or selling marijuana prior to legalization; and even how to deal with “what ifs” surrounding workers’ compensation and employers’ liability for employees found to have THC in their systems, and how law enforcement should handle impaired drivers considering there’s no cannabis test equivalent to an alcohol breathalyzer.\” Whew.
The good news? \”Sen. Heather Steans says she and Rep. Kelly Cassidy (both are Democrats from Chicago) expect to introduce draft language by the end of April – enough time, Steans said, for legislators to digest and vet it, with a vote expected before the legislative session adjourns at the end of May.\”
So…can we fast-forward to June?

It’s set to (hulk) smash box office records as the biggest movie of the year. The epic culmination of 22 Marvel movie releases in one big blowout battle for it all with the Avengers assembling the massive success of ‘Avengers: Infinity War’. So following the west coast premiere of the movie yesterday, non-spoiler reactions hit the web and we’ve pulled together the best. Collider Video also breaks down the hottest take on this highly anticipated film.
No words.
Unbelievable. The greatest wrap up to these 10 years of Marvel movies one could hope for…
Laughed (a lot), cried (that’s nuts) and cheered. Opening weekend will be the movie theater experience of a lifetime.
Blown away. #AvengersEndgame pic.twitter.com/GCUN9eVAJR

All I’m going to say about @Avengers #EndGame is that I am an emotional wreck and can’t stop crying

The scope of Avengers: Endgame is impossible to put into words. What Fiege & MCU achieved over last 10-years has lead to this gloriously masterful moment in cinema & it’s truly mind-blowing how beautifully paced this storytelling is. Perfectly balanced. As all things should be.

Just watched Avengers: Endgame. I don’t believe hyperbole is possible for this movie. It is the ultimate Marvel movie in every way possible and words cannot describe how epic it is. And yes, Hawkeye is a rockstar.
— Rob Keyes (@rob_keyes) April 23, 2019
Wow. #AvengersEndgame is staggering. It’s surprising in ways I never saw coming and satisfying in ways I didn’t realize I needed. It’s kind of the ultimate gift to fans of the MCU. It’s very long and has a few hiccups, but is everything you’re hoping for and more. pic.twitter.com/RO97kw9fs5
