I can build this all day. This massive 3,128-piece Lego set brings Captain America's to life in your home.
Who doesn't love Lego? Appealing to folks of all ages, Lego makes for wonderful gifts or collectors items. I find myself just really enjoying the process of it all. Popping on a podcast or some music while I just tune out and build. You take each piece of the instructions one step at a time while you can see your progress moving along in real time. It's pretty mindful and therapeutic as you put this cool thing together in front of you while your mind wanders and your real-life stressors momentarily go away. Plus, Lego's got awesome sets covering every franchise under the sun — Marvel being one of its most popular. Speaking of, this Lego Marvel Captain America's Shield set is currently 20% off, bringing the price down to just $160.

Built Lifesize for Display
It's the iconic shield of Cap himself. And it's not made out of vibranium. No, it's made of something much tougher and even more deadly if you accidently step on—Lego. At a life-size measurement of 47 centimeters (18.5 inches), this Lego set is massive. It contains a total of 3,128 pieces to put together the red, white, and blue symbol of heroism. It's built for display as it comes with a stand marked with a Lego Infinity Saga plaque.
Also included is a minifigure of Captain America. Falcon has taken over the title and shield, but this minifigure is of the first Captain America as he appeared during the first decade of Marvel Cinematic Universe films as portrayed by Chris Evens. The minifigure has his own shield. In his other hand, you'll find Mjolnir—the hammer of Thor. Marvel fans will remember the showstopping fight between Captain America and Thanos in 2019's Avengers: Endgame in which Cap proved himself worthy to wield this mighty weapon.
The Lego builder app can make the building process easier and more immersive than ever before. Zoom in and rotate sets in 3D while tracking your progress of the build in front of you intuitively. It's a really cool way Lego has kept up with modern consumer expectations. You can check it out on the Lego website.
The long and short is that Marvel is cool and Lego is fun. For a limited time, you can get the Lego Marvel Captain America's Shield set with its Chris Evans minifigure for the discounted price of $160—a savings of 20% that amounts to $40. And be sure to check out the other Lego Marvel sets on sale at Amazon.

‘Sex pest' Jared Leto denies claims of lewd behaviour made against him by 9 women

Nine women have accused actor and singer Jared Leto of inappropriate behaviour. The women allege that his behaviour is 'predatory, terrifying and unacceptable', according to an expose by Air Mail. Jared (53) is accused of engaging in inappropriate behaviour over the years, including flirting with teenagers. One of his alleged victims was just 16 years old when Jared allegedly approached her and grabbed her by the arm while she was outside a café in Los Angeles. 'We had a quick conversation, and he got my number,' she said. She added that Jared called her home a few days later, recalling: 'I don't know if he was on drugs or what . . . It was the weirdest, grossest voice . . . [But] for me, it's Jared, you know?' She said that Jared told her he was hosting a party at his house that evening and invited her to it. The woman declined, saying, 'I didn't even have a driver's licence.' Nevertheless, she said, Jared kept calling her, 'always at one, two, three AM'. And the conversations turned sexual. 'He'd ask things like: 'Have you ever had a boyfriend? Have you ever sucked a d***?'' she told the publication. READ MORE | Joshua Jackson in legal battle with his ex-wife over daughter's schooling Another woman, model Laura La Rue, says she met Jared at an animal rights benefit when she was 16. They started texting and she would visit his studio. Laura claims Jared once walked into a room nude 'like it was normal' when she was 17. 'I thought maybe this was just what adult men do,' she said. Another victim, who was underage when she first started chatting to Jared, alleged that he would ask inappropriate questions when she'd go to his house, such as, 'Do any of the little boys you hang out with f*** you?' She said that when she turned 18, the actor masturbated in front of her at his house and forced her to touch him. This is not the first time Jared has faced accusations of inappropriate behaviour. In 2012, Los Angeles-based DJ Allie Teilz wrote about her encounter with him on Facebook, saying, 'You're not really in LA until Jared Leto tries to force himself on you backstage . . . In a kilt. And a snow hat.' The DJ recently wrote on her Instagram stories, 'I was assaulted and traumatised by this creep when I was 17 . . . He knew my age and didn't care. What he did was predatory, terrifying and unacceptable.' The actor has denied the accusations against him, and insists Allie was lying. He added that nothing about his conversation with Laura was inappropriate, and a spokesperson's statement said that 'Ms La Rue later applied to work as Mr Leto's personal assistant, further underscoring the absence of anything inappropriate in any of their interactions. All of the allegations are expressly denied.'

Summer Game Fest: ‘Wu-Tang: Rise of The Deceiver', ‘Marvel's Deadpool VR,' ‘Marvel Cosmic Invasion', ‘Resident Evil Requiem' & Other Big Announcments

Source: Wu-Tang: Rise of The Deceiver / Marvel's Deadpool VR / Marvel Cosmic Invasion / Resident Evil Requiem / Summer Game Fest G3, also known as Summer Game Fest, Geoff Keighley's replacement for E3, kicked off on Friday, June 6, and it was full of some fantastic video game announcements. Geoff Keighly kicked off the annual live show, promising plenty of significant announcements and reveals, and for the most part, he kept his word. HHW Gaming was in the building, the YouTube Theater to be specific, as we are currently in Los Angeles to get hands-on with A LOT of games, so keep it locked for plenty of previews. Until then, let's recap Keighley's Summer Game Fest, in case you missed the event, starting with what we feel were the most significant announcements. Wu-Tang: Rise of The Deceiver Source: Brass Lion Entertainment / Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver One of the biggest surprises of the show was the announcement of Brass Lion Entertainment's Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver . It marks the first Wu-Tang Clan-inspired video game 25 years following the release of 1999's Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style. The game was simultaneously announced during Summer Game Fest and the opening night of the Staten Island rap stable's farewell tour. Rise of the Deceiver is described as a 3-player co-op action experience where players take control of characters blessed with abilities bestowed upon them by members of the Wu-Tang Clan to combat enemies attempting to invade their home. The official breakdown of the game on YouTube reads: Rebuild Shaolin – Ghostface Killah is calling on you to rescue his Wu brothers – who aid you in your battle to save the dreams of the people. Defeat the forces of the Deceiver to elevate Shaolin into a hopeful and thriving community. Battle With the Wu – Harness the powers of the Wu-Tang Clan to fight fantastical enemies through the Chambers of a surreal dreamworld. Dynamic gameplay soundtrack, including classic Wu-Tang songs + new material, overseen by legendary producer Just Blaze. Protect Ya Neck – Collect powerful Jewels to customize your fighting style and iconic fits to show off your drip. Combine forces with your friends in increasingly challenging battle Chambers and beat back the Deceiver's swarms. The game, which has been in development for three years, began as part of Ghostface Killah-produced film Angel of Dust, which was also directed by The RZA. No word on when we can expect the game to arrive, but we will definitely keep our ears and eyes to the video game streets for this one. You can wishlist Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver on Steam right now. Source: DOTEMU / Tribute Games / Marvel Cosmic Invasion When Marvel Cosmic Invasion was first announced we knew we could pond on Marvel villains with a roster of MCU characters like Spider-Man, Nova, Captain America, Wolverine, Nova, Storm, Phyla-Vell and Venom were just the tip of the iceberg in terms of the 15 playable characters you can choose from to take on Annihilus. Also joining in on the galactic-sized quest to stop Annihilus' attack, which spans across the galaxy, will be She-Hulk and Rocket Raccoon, who will help take on other threats, such as the Mad Titan Thanos and Sauron. We fully expect more of our favorite Marvel supers to be announced ahead of Marvel Cosmic Invasion's 2025 release. Source: Twitsted Pixel / Oculus Studios / Marvel's Deadpool VR Marvel Games is absolutely cooking! They got Marvel Cosmic Invasion , Iron Man , Blade , Marvel Tōken: Fighting Souls, and now Marvel's Deadpool VR all in the pipeline, which still keeps us excited even after EA and the now-shuttered Cliffhanger Games canceled Black Panther . Deadpool is no stranger to the video game space , thanks to High Moon Studios' Deadpool game, which was released in 2013. However, this new game marks the popular anti-hero's first foray into the VR space. Marvel's Deadpool VR will feature Neil Patrick Harris as the titular character, but based on the trailer, he perfectly encapsulates the energy Ryan Reynolds has brought to the character thanks to the hit Marvel movies. We also get to see some unique gameplay physics, such as Deadpool using his blown-off arm to chuck at enemies or bash an enemy's head on a sickle while being decapitated. Essentially, 'if you can imagine it, you can probably do it' is the premise here, and that appears to be the case with Marvel's Deadpool VR . While Marvel's Deadpool VR isn't the format we expected to see Deadpool in, it definitely looks like a fun time. Source: Capcom / Resident Evil Requiem Clearly, this was the game Geoff Keighley kept close to the vest based on how emotional he got announcing it. Initially, there was a bit of a fakeout with the RE dev team confirming a new Resident Evil game was in the works, and more will be revealed when the franchise celebrates its 30th anniversary next March. It turned out that the wait would be only 30 minutes. Keighley was choking up as he announced the biggest surprise of the day, a first look at the game that will have RE fans taking control of Grace Ashcroft, an FBI agent. Ashcroft is a last name familiar only to hardcore fans of the franchise. Grace Ashcroft is the daughter of Alyssa Ashcroft, one of the sole survivors of 2003's Resident Evil Outbreak . The trailer doesn't reveal much, but it does hint at a return to Raccoon City, the setting for the first three games in the franchise. We will definitely share more about this game in the near future, before its launch on February 27, 2026. A demo has been confirmed for Gamescom in Cologne, Germany, in August. These four games were not the only announcements. You can hit the gallery below for more trailers.

What is a Severed Body Doing In a Wes Anderson Movie?

A bomb goes off on a plane, blowing a guy in half and ripping a hole in the fuselage. The pilot ejects and the hero goes down with the aircraft but survives the crash. It's not 'Mission: Impossible.' It's the opening sequence in the latest release by Wes Anderson, the filmmaker whose singular style gets labeled with words such as whimsical and twee. The effects are special. When the unlucky passenger explodes, he leaves a prim pair of legs buckled into the seat and an artful spritz of blood on the cabin wall.
