On what would’ve been their second wedding anniversary, Jennifer Lopez has finally pulled the plug on her marriage to Ben Affleck. She filed for divorce and claims they’ve been separated since all the way back in April. More notably, there is no prenup, so this should get real neat, real fast — or continue to be a boring, drawn-out affair that can’t compete with the Blake Lively mess. Probably that last part. (TMZ)

So, fun fact: The whole Disney tried to use a Disney+ clause to force a wrongful death lawsuit into arbitration story was missing a key detail. The couple also signed an arbitration clause while buying Disney World tickets, which makes much more sense than, “You can’t sue us if you watched Bluey.” That said, Disney is no longer forcing the clause and has agreed to let the lawsuit go to court.

From Chris: Over on Why Did We Watch This, we’re talking the 2004 Hugh Jackman vehicle Van Helsing, perhaps one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. Jackman’s hair, the bad werewolf CGI, and the incredibly dumb “twist” are just a few of the many reasons this movie is dumb, but it was fun to goof around with. (Apple Podcasts)

Katie is feeling evangelical about Joan Druett’s account of shipwrecks and survival, Island of the Lost. “Druett’s story is well researched, and beautifully written.
