Him isn’t just a sports horror film—it’s a sermon on the cost of greatness. Director Justin Tipping delivers a fever dream of masculinity, worship, and the violence of ambition, with Marlon Wayans giving one of his most haunting performances. Beneath the blood and symbolism lies a deeper question: what happens when athletic excellence becomes religion, and the human body becomes its altar?

Jared Leto once stood at the crossroads of brilliance and madness — now he’s just circling the drain of self-parody. From mailing dead rats to his co-stars to transforming Morbius into a meme, his “method acting” has become more myth than art. This sharp critique examines how ego, excess, and overcommitment turned a promising actor into Hollywood’s favorite cautionary tale.

“Daria” doesn’t need a reboot—it needs to remain what it was: a perfectly preserved reflection of Gen X cynicism and late-’90s authenticity. The MTV classic thrived on subtlety, wit, and cultural critique that can’t be replicated in today’s algorithm-driven landscape. Reviving it now would only flatten its legacy and distort its dry brilliance.
