A year ago, Sen Morimoto was on the cusp of quitting music altogether. Instead, the Chicago-based, Japan-born multi-instrumentalist and producer channeled his disillusionment with the music industry and society at large into a new album, Diagnosis. He released it this fall on the quietly influential indie label he co-owns, Sooper Records, using his own blend of jazz, rap, neo-soul, and indie rock to rail against the rat race. “A lot of my music in the past is really peaceful, chill beats and thoughts about people and friendships,” Morimoto, 30, says. “And...

Welcome to this week’s Nxt: UK review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have Nxt, but in Europe. Is that specific enough?
Match #1: “Bomber” Dave Mastiff def. “Primate” Jay Melrose The following is courtesy of WWE.com:
Jay Melrose opened the latest episode of Nxt UK by unleashing an animalistic effort against the still-undefeated monster Dave Mastiff. When he attempted to lift the “Bomber” onto his shoulder, however, his poor judgment proved to be his undoing. And after completely flattening the “Primate,” Mastiff finished him off with the Cannonball into the corner.
My Take: 2 out of 5 – This was done before you could even begin to miss it.
Match #2: Walter def. Jack Starz The following is courtesy of WWE.com:
After making his presence known at Nxt UK TakeOver: Blackpool, the intense, towering, old-world throwback competitor that is Walter debuted against the unfortunate Jack Starz.

Exclusive: We are hearing that Edge of Tomorrow director Doug Liman is in early talks to take over the directing reigns of Warner Bros.’ reboot The Cannonball Run, the 1980s action comedy franchise made popular by star Burt Reynolds and director Hal Needham.
Warner Bros. production executives Jesse Ehrman and Paul Perez are overseeing the re-imagining for the studio.
Last year, Skyscraper filmmaker Rawson Marshall Thurber was in talks to direct a Cannonball Run reboot from a script by Night at the Museum scribes Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant. A deal with Thurber wasn’t reached. Word is Liman will work off of Lennon and Garant’s version with a new scribe to be announced.
Cannonball Run I and II were directed by Needham and featured all star ensembles with ’80s stars like Reynolds, Farrah Fawcett, Roger Moore, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr and Dom DeLuise. They played roles...

American actor known for his roles in horror films and Star Trek
The actor William Campbell, who has died aged 87, had a long and varied career in films and on television, finding recognition from his association with several low-budget horror pictures and with the TV sci-fi series Star Trek. However, although he had the hooded eyes and languid manner of Robert Mitchum and something of the laid-back anarchism of Jack Nicholson, entry into the major league of stardom eluded him.
Campbell was in the first series of Star Trek, in an episode entitled The Squire of Gothos (1967), in which he has a field day as General Trelane, a foppish, childish humanoid, swinging wildly from joviality to sulkiness to anger. In The Trouble With Tribbles (1967), in the second season, Campbell was equally impressive as Koloth, a bearded, bureaucratic Klingon, a character that he revived 27 years later, towards the end of his working life,...
