Salomon Freeski TV Season 9 Teaser

Every season Salomon puts together a crazy team of athletes and filmmakers to chase deep snow in epic locations around the world. This year, while filming far afield in places like Svalbard, Norway, Chamonix, France, and Bella Coola, British Columbia, they have outdone themselves. Stay tuned as they launch new episodes, and more importantly, cross your fingers for deep snow.

God, Homeland, King

A journey through the Atlas Mountains - Lonely Planet travel video

In this short opener to Lonely Planet’s Pathfinder series in Morocco, we’re treated to some gorgeous visuals of the Atlas Mountains, village markets in Tanaghmeilt, as well as the Cascades d’Ouzoud waterfall. If this doesn’t inspire you to start looking up tickets for the Marrakesh Express, we don’t know what will.

Nau’s Story of Recycled Down, Episode 1: Design

The Story of Recycled Down - Episode 1: Design | Nau 2015

Nau is committed to sustainability in their entire line, so it should come as no surprise that this year their designers figured out a way to recycle used goose down. Using a cleaning process, they are able to restore the loft of each piece of apparel to a like new condition. We’ll be following this series on their Fall/Winter 2015 line closely as they role out more transparency initiatives for the environmentally conscious consumer.

Robbie Maddison’s Pipedream POV Edit

Action Cam | Robbie Maddison's Pipe Dream POV 4K | Sony

If you haven’t seen the full video for Robbie Maddison and DC’s project Pipe Dream, stop what you’re doing and watch it right now. Not every many people are crazy enough to even think of “surfing” on a motocross bike, and even fewer athletes who can pull it off. We spotted this little behind the scenes look put together from Robbie’s helmet and on board cameras, while doing some research on our new Sony Action Cam. We doubt we’ll ever film anything quite this epic, but expect a full review of this powerful little camera soon.

The Program Movie Trailer

The Program - New Official Trailer - In Cinemas October 16

The rise and fall of Lance Armstrong is alternatively a heroic effort and a soap opera. Far from casting the fabled Tour de France winner as a benevolent Titan, The Program looks like an much more brutally honest account of the rampant doping in cycling in the last two decades. No word on a US release date, but you can bet we’ll be there on opening night when it does come out.

The Last of Us season 2: Everything we know so far
What's next for The Last of Us?
Joel and Ellie drive the narrative of The Last of Us

The Last of Us bombarded television screens like a post-apocalyptic virus in January 2023. The thrilling adaptation of the Playstation classic resoundingly recaptured the dark, foreboding storytelling of the video games while giving stars performers Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey a platform to show off their fantastic acting skills. The first season didn't sway far from the source material, neatly ending the ninth episode right where the maiden game concluded.

Joel and Ellie escape from the hospital where Ellie's brain is going to be harvested in an effort to end the undead pandemic worldwide. Joel's loyalty and selfishness propelled him to slaughter the doctors who were going to attempt the surgery, and his lies and deceit seemed to raise Ellie's eyebrows at least a little bit.

Is Apple TV+’s ‘Sugar’ coming back for a second season?
The show stars Colin Farrell as a mysterious, movie-loving detective

Although it starred Colin Farrell, Apple TV+'s Sugar didn't have the kind of reception that made it an awards darling. It did earn a devoted following, though, and now, many are wondering whether the Apple show will be back for a second season.

Apple has announced that the show will be coming for more, and Colin Farrell is set to return as Detective John Sugar, a movie-loving crime-solver who really wants to help people. Sugar made headlines during its first season for a twist that very few people saw coming, and now, season 2 will have to deal with the fallout of that big reveal.

Andrew Garfield weighs in on whether he would return as his newly popular Spider-Man
Garfield last played the character in 2021's Spider-Man: No Way Home
Andrew Garfield in 'The Amazing Spider-Man.'

When Andrew Garfield was actually playing Spider-Man, most fans of the character were not thrilled with the movies he starred in. In the decade since The Amazing Spider-Man and its sequel were first released, though, plenty of people have warmed to his version of the character. That's likely in part thanks to Spider-Man: No Way Home, which gave both he and Toby Maguire another chance to put on their suits.

In a recent interview with Esquire while promoting his latest movie, We Live in Time, Garfield said that he was now very much open to returning to the role.
