Camp Flog Gnaw 2025 Rescheduled With Reduced Lineup

written by jummy84

Pushing back your entire music festival by a week is a radical maneuver, but it’s one the organizers of Tyler, The Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival believed they had to take. The fest was all set to pop off this Saturday and Sunday at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, but due to extreme inclement weather in the forecast, it’s been rescheduled for the following weekend and will now take place on Nov. 22 and 23. Tyler’s Instagram account posted the following message today:

due to the fact this storm became an atmospheric rain torrential downpour we had 2 choices – cancel or move to next weekend. we chose the latter. we understand this is not ideal so we will offer refunds. for everyone else we will see you next weekend.
Due to the schedule change, presumably there are some ticketholders who can no longer attend, which sucks. The same is true of some performers. Clairo, whose final Charm-era performance was to take place this weekend, announced in an Instagram story that she regretfully will now have to miss the fest. Don Toliver, Men I Trust, sombr, TEMS, and the Alchemist have also been removed from the bill.
Clairo shared a lengthier statement in a full-fledged IG post:
a sad and unexpected ending to Charm , but I am leaving this time in my life with so much appreciation & gratitude in my heart ❤️‍?
I could never describe what this album means to me , and I could have never imagined where it would take us ? the love I have for every single person involved could move mountains . I’m only crying cus I love you
Among those who’ll still be performing when Camp Flog Gnaw 2025 finally takes place: A$AP Rocky, Childish Gambino, Earl Sweatshirt, Clipse, Doechii, Thundercat, Zack Fox, GloRilla, Larry June, Fousheé, Zelooperz, Deb Never, Bb Trickz, 2 Chainz, Navy Blue, T-Pain, Teezo Touchdown, both MIKE and Mike G, and more.

Adolescence Is Hell, and So Is Summer Camp

by jummy84 November 10, 2025

written by jummy84

Adolescence, and especially at an all-boys summer water polo camp, is hell in Charlie Polinger’s memorably disturbing first feature, “The Plague.” In the psychodrama-meets-body-horror movie, Ben (discovery Everett Blunck), a socially anxious 12-year-old, becomes part of a ritualistic tradition that targets an outcast among them with an illness they call “the plague.”

But as there are real corporeal implications, it’s starting to look as if this imagined social disease might be real. Is the plague in this acne-scarred nightmare an even more horrifying version of puberty? “The Plague” almost feels like an allegory for it, but it’s never predictable. Below, IndieWire shares the exclusive trailer ahead of the film‘s upcoming debut on December 24.

Joel Edgerton also stars in the film as the boys’ coach, who turns out to be extremely out of his depth when faced with the cruelties they inflict upon each other. “The Plague” first premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, where IndieWire spoke to writer/director Polinger about shooting the film on 35mm during a sweltering summer season. “We were capturing something that felt timeless and, to me, there’s no comparison. It looks so great to shoot on film, and these kids’ faces and closeups just rendered in such a beautiful way,” he said.

That shot-on-film aspect lends to the film feeling like a throwback to classic coming-of-age movies, but with a chilling twist. “I love those movies about boys, though I often feel like a lot of movies about young boys are either a little more sort of bro-y hangout or a little more nostalgic, kind of biking-around-the-suburbs type of thing,” he said. Movies like Bo Burnham’s “Eighth Grade” and Julia Ducournau’s “Raw,” he said, “capture a social dread and vulnerability of your body and something you don’t see as much with boys because it requires a certain vulnerability to be an object of terror in that way… I was even looking at some sort of dread-filled, ‘Shining’ daylight kinds of horror movies, [with] huge imposing spaces.”

From IndieWire’s review out of Cannes: “In his debut feature, filmmaker Charlie Polinger plays with broad riffs on coming-of-age, body horror, and bullying genres before paring these themes back to reveal that two 12-year-old boys — and their contrasting approaches to being different — are really the heartfelt preoccupation of the film.”

Independent Film Company opens “The Plague” in select theaters on Wednesday, December 24 with an expansion to follow on Friday, January 2.

Creator Camp and Attend Want to Make Online Audiences Ticket Buyers

by jummy84 November 4, 2025

written by jummy84

Most creator projects still live (and die) online. Creator Camp wants to change that.

The Austin-based creator collective distribution arm, Camp Studios, signed a three-picture theatrical deal with Attend Theatrical Marketplace, the Fithian Group company that connects filmmakers directly with movie theaters, streamlining the process of booking and releasing films.

The first title, rom-com “Two Sleepy People,” opens November 14 in 20 markets. It’s directed by Baron Ryan, who co-wrote it with Caroline Grossman; they both star. (More here.) The premise is very TikTok-adjacent: Two distant co-workers wake up every morning as strangers, but every night they’re married.

Robert Longstreet in Todd Rohal's "Fuck My Son!"; Baron Ryan and Caroline Grossman in Ryan's "Two Sleepy People"

The real bet is if creators already know their audience, why can’t that audience show up to a cinema?

Creator Camp says its network of 300 digital-native filmmakers accounts for over 3B annual views. They’ve already been pressure-testing theatrical demand: the film premiered at Creator Camp’s flagship Austin event, where 1,000 attendees generated $150,000 in ticket sales. A four-city micro-tour followed in Seattle, Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York, averaging $10,429 per screen.

Attend is led by NATO veterans Jackie Brenneman, John Fithian, and Patrick Corcoran, with the ambition to use data and AI to directly match films with theaters and audiences.

So, in theory: Attend wants to make theatrical distribution transactional and demand-based; Creator Camp has creators who can actually deliver audiences.

“Today’s filmmakers grew up online and they understand their audiences because they engage with them constantly, which has allowed them to build massive, loyal communities,” said Creator Camp founder and CEO Max Reisinger. “That direct connection solves a huge challenge in theatrical distribution. Instead of relying on outdated models that guess who will show up, our creators can bring fans to theaters they’ve already cultivated online, turning digital engagement into real-world box office success.”

Brenneman sees it as smart math. “Movie theaters are vital places for community. When the movies are there, so are audiences. In partnership with the innovative approach of Creator Camp, we can build on the enthusiastic followers of filmmakers online, connect them directly to theaters, and with Attend create demand-driven theatrical releases.”

For all the existential dread around the theatrical business, it’s a forward-looking model that relies on conversion and community.

That’s a little different from “finding an audience”; it’s believing that the audience is already here; you just need to point them at a screen. It suggests that the future of filmmaking might not be “online vs theatrical”; it could be online to theatrical, when the community wants it.

“Two Sleepy People” opens November 14; more markets are contingent on demand signals. Tickets and theater requests at twosleepypeople.com.

‘9-1-1’ Expands to Nashville, ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Goes Boom, Marine ‘Boots’ Camp, All About Victoria Beckham and Saquon Barkley

by jummy84 October 9, 2025

written by jummy84

ABC

9-1-1

The long-running first-responder drama opens its ninth season with a tribute to the 118’s fallen leader, Bobby Nash (Peter Krause), as the crew prepares to dedicate the firehouse in his memory. But duty never stops calling, and they snap back into action for an emergency involving a billionaire tech giant in critical peril.

The Golden Bachelor

The second season of The Golden Bachelor is available Wednesdays on ABC and streaming next day on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+. It’s the senior spin on the beloved dating reality show, with 66-year-old former NFL linebacker and lawyer Mel Owens searching for his later-in-life lover. This season is hosted by Jesse Palmer, a former Bachelor and NFL player himself. Fingers crossed he can help Owens find love.

9-1-1: Nashville

It’s a sign of the times, and the state of broadcast TV, that ABC’s only new scripted series this fall is that most reliable of standbys: a spinoff. Chris O’Donnell, who starred in one of TV’s most successful spinoffs (NCIS: LA), leads the ensemble as Captain Don Hart of Fire Station 113. In the premiere, he and his crew respond to a franchise favorite — a weather emergency — when a tornado rips through Music City, threatening a country-music festival. Jessica Capshaw (Grey’s Anatomy) co-stars as Don’s wife Blythe, whose well-heeled family brings a Dynasty vibe to Don’s working-class world when a scandalous family secret is revealed.

Grey’s Anatomy

Another year, another cliffhanger to resolve. Which is how Grey’s Anatomy kicks off its 22nd season, TV’s longest-running prime-time medical drama. The opener is in full crisis mode, and it’s all hands on deck as Grey Sloan’s staff scrambles in the wake of an explosion on the surgical floor. Link (Chris Carmack) appeared to be the doctor most immediately in danger, but we’ll know soon enough who gets to operate another day.

Boots

“This is not like summer camp,” laments Cameron Cope (Parenthood‘s Miles Heizer), a closeted gay man who follows his best friend Ray (Liam Oh) into the Marines in 1990, when homosexuality was strictly forbidden (even predating “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell”). Cameron also soon realizes that the “buddy system” isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be in a system designed to break down recruits and shape them into soldiers. This eight-part dramedy, based on Greg Cope White’s memoir The Pink Marine, has moments of whimsy — especially when Cameron’s anxiety-ridden inner self speaks out — but is also unexpectedly compelling in its coming-of-age story as Cameron makes unexpected alliances in his quest to discover what it is to be a man. “I’m such a Rose,” this Golden Girls fan sighs — which is probably something he should keep to himself for the time being.

Victoria Beckham

The road from musical stardom as Posh Spice to celebrated footballer’s wife to being accepted as a fashion designer hasn’t always been easy, says Victoria Beckham in a three-part documentary profile. “I have never forgotten where I come from,” she says, revealing her insecurities and desires as she prepares for “the biggest fashion show I have ever done.”

Saquon

With Martin Scorsese as executive producer, an intimate documentary spotlights Saquon Barkley, the Super Bowl champion running back for the Philadelphia Eagles. The film covers his career highs and lows (injuries) while also following him off the field as a devoted husband and dad. “It’s not who you are when you get knocked down,” says the resilient superstar athlete. “It’s who you are when you stand back up. That’s why I play the game.”

[Update] Future’s Team Denies Role In V*olent Tokyo Nightclub Brawl As A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie’s Camp Takes The Heat

[Update] Future’s Team Denies Role In V*olent Tokyo Nightclub Brawl As A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie’s Camp Takes The Heat

Future’s team is clearing the air after chaos broke out at a Tokyo nightclub over the weekend.

“Future’s crew was not involved in the ‘Magic City’ brawl whatsoever,” Future’s team shared in a statement with TMZ.

All eyes are now on A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie and his entourage, who were caught in a massive brawl that erupted inside Zouk Japan during the Magic City Takeover event. The Bronx rapper was seen in the thick of it, standing on a platform in bright yellow Air Jordan 5s, reportedly looking for something to throw.

Eyewitnesses say A Boogie’s team appeared to be the most aggressive in the melee, though it remains unclear what sparked the v*olence. A clip obtained by TMZ shows the aftermath of the brawl, with money scattered across the floor and dancers fleeing the scene. No arrests have been reported at this time.

What are your thoughts on this brawl?

Camp Rock Movie Cast: Where Are They Now

written by jummy84

After their breakout in Step Up and Cheaper by the Dozen and a recurring role on The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, Alyson took on the part of aspiring producer and dancer Caitlyn Gellar.

Aside from returning for two Step Up sequels, Alyson has voiced characters in the Kingdom Heart video game franchise and continues to play Isabella on Disney’s hit animated series Phineas & Ferb.

Alyson penned an essay for Teen Vogue in 2018, opening up about falling in love with their female dance instructor. Stoner also released a single, “When It’s Right,” inspired by the relationship.

They told E! News that coming out was “a little bit scary” but the risk was worth it: “What matters most is that it’s a really exciting, fresh time for me to feel more myself than ever.”

In 2019, Alyson debuted a shaved head in their “Stripped Bare” music video, and later opened up about their previous mental health struggles and overcoming an eating disorder.

As they told People. “I can’t tell you how many beliefs and opinions and insecurities fell to the floor with every tuft of hair, and I’m leaving them there.”

Later that same year, they made headlines for stealing the show at the MTV Video Music Awards when they teamed up with Missy Elliott for an epic performance of “Work It,” 17 years after they starred in the music video for the hit song.

In August 2025, Alyson released their memoir Semi-Well-Adjusted Despite Literally Everything.

Tyler, the Creator announces 2025 Camp Flog Gnaw line-up with a word search

by jummy84 August 22, 2025

written by jummy84

Tyler, The Creator has announced the line-up for Camp Flog Gnaw 2025. Find all the details below.

The 11th edition of the carnival will take place at Los Angeles’ Dodger Stadium on November 15 and 16. Tickets for the festival were initially put on sale in June, without any news as to who would be performing. Passes promptly sold out and fans have since been awaiting the reveal of the line-up.

Now, Tyler has unveiled the list of artists set to perform via a word search that was posted on Instagram yesterday (August 21).

The puzzle revealed that, alongside Tyler himself, playing the festival will be A$AP Rocky, Doechii, Childish Gambino, Clipse, Earl Sweatshirt, T-Pain, The Alchemist, 2 Chainz, Thundercat, Larry June, Clairo, Teezo Touchdown, Tems and more.

Last year, the rapper shared the festival’s line-up in a similar fashion, rolling out a crossword puzzle to reveal performances from Erykah Badu, Playboi Carti, André 3000, Kaytranada, Sexyy Red, Vince Staples, Omar Apollo, Faye Webster, RAYE, and more.

The 2024 edition was full of surprises, including R&B superstar SZA joining Doechii on stage during her set to perform their 2020 collaboration, ‘Persuasive (remix)’, and Playboi Carti brought out The Weeknd during his set to perform ‘Timeless’.

In other news, Tyler released his ninth studio album, ‘Don’t Tap The Glass’, in July, after announcing it only two days earlier during a concert in Brooklyn.

NME gave ‘Don’t Tap the Glass’ four stars, in a review that read: “Shedding the cinematic sprawl and narrative pathos of last year’s ‘Chromakopia’, Tyler steps away from the character-driven framing of Wolf Haley or Sir Baudelaire.

“The paranoia and parasocial tension explored on that record still linger – but beneath cartoonish ’80s rap armour. It’s part Kurtis Blow and part LL Cool J, encased in a clear Perspex chamber like a collector’s action figure. Instead of inviting connection, Tyler shields himself behind the glass: a museum piece for dance and display only.”

Shortly after the album came out, he also released a clean version at the request of a fan. The LP serves as a follow-up to ‘Chromakopia’, which landed at number 44 on NME‘s best albums of 2024 list.

In May, NME caught him live in London, giving his performance a glowing five-star review which read: “As Tyler wishes us a farewell, he remains humble, but tonight is no small feat. With outfit changes, multiple stages and live vocals front-and-centre, Tyler flips through his eras like a masterclass in fearless reinvention.

“From the raw menace of ‘Goblin’ to the kaleidoscopic chaos of ‘Chromakopia’, tonight is a vivid, wild ride through the mind of rap’s ultimate maverick – and London is lucky to be along for the journey.

In other news, the musician is set to make his film debut later this year in Marty Supreme, a new A24 film set to be released in December.
