The Adventures of Smolverine

I liked Logan -- it even made me cry once -- and WD didn't think it wasted 2 hours of his life. Very much about Men and Children (women? What are those besides kids' support staff?) but still well worth watching.

Content Advisory: dramatic hypodermic needle use. Also, lots of stabbination, but that goes with the Wolverine territory.

New Star in 2022

[Well, to synopsize: a binary star system's members are spiraling inwards and in 2022 the light from their collision should reach Earth, if predictions are correct, resulting in a bright naked-eye-visible star appearing where there currently isn't such an object. People who know more about astronomy than I do are eagerly invited to edit my synopsis.] With thanks to lemonsharks for the link.
