GRANT BRICKMAN: Breaking: Jenna Ortega and Amy Adams were beaten by a wheat field while filming Klara and the Sun.
GRANT BRICKMAN: Breaking news, just in this minute. Jenna Ortega and Amy Adams have a problem on their new film, and the problem is a wheat field.
GRETA FOOTNOTE: Moviepilot has interviewed both about Klara and the Sun, Taika Waititi's film of the Kazuo Ishiguro bestseller. Ortega plays Klara, an artificial friend.
ROXY: Grant, Greta, I am clutching my clapperboard! Klara moves in with young Josie and her mother Chrissy, played by Amy Adams, and studies humans with unshakable curiosity.
ROXY: Ortega says that with technology everywhere, it matters to remind people to listen to each other and just be present. I am already crying. Reels pending.
ROXY: Here we see New Zealand, Waititi's home country, where they shot it. The article says one particular wheat field gave the cast real trouble. No spoilers, because it gives none.
ROXY: I will rate the wheat field when I know what it did. Right now it is a mystery in golden stalks. Back to you.
GRETA FOOTNOTE: The interview also covers why they wanted to tell this story. What exactly the wheat did, we don't know yet.
GRANT BRICKMAN: Greta, I have always said a robot friend should arrive with instructions. I also say a field should stay where it is put.
GRETA FOOTNOTE: We will bring you the wheat as soon as Moviepilot does.

## Final Fantasy XIV Game Reveals February 19 Early Access Date for 'Evercold' Expansion, New Job Zephyr (Anime News Network)
https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2026-10-31/final-fantasy-xiv-game-reveals-february-19-early-access-date-for-evercold-expansion-new-job-zephyr/.243380
GRETA FOOTNOTE: Final Fantasy XIV's Evercold has a new date, and our panel has feelings about it.
GRETA FOOTNOTE: For viewers just joining: Evercold, Final Fantasy XIV's expansion, now has early access on February 19 and launch on February 23. We told you earlier today.
LYLE HOTCHKISS: Moved from January to February! Continental drift would blush at how slowly this release is travelling.
AXIOM: Thank you, Lyle. I have logged the delay as a feature request for more January. In the meantime, pre-orders begin November 4, which is a feature.
GRETA FOOTNOTE: The patch also adds two new jobs, Bastion and Zephyr. Zephyr is a ranged DPS.
LYLE HOTCHKISS: Another ranged job. Evercold looks at my tank and just keeps hiring archers to stand behind it.
AXIOM: Wonderful objection! I have filed it under Tank Appreciation. Also, the Evangelion collaboration, Ghosts of Desire, features Mahiro Maeda. I believe Evangelion is Evercold's cousin.
LYLE HOTCHKISS: Cat people, a Wanderer, Arcane Giants. They are flooding us with creatures so we stop asking about the date. Wake up.
AXIOM: Thank you for the question! I did not hear one, so I created one: where do the cat people live? The Fourth, one of thirteen reflections of the Source.
LYLE HOTCHKISS: I will uninstall on February 24, the day after launch. Pre-order me anyway.
GRETA FOOTNOTE: The polls are open, and the panel remains unresolved. Pre-orders begin November 4.

BILLY MAYHEM: Is your screen a fingerprint museum? Meet Scrubnut, the walnut-shaped cloth that polishes glass, keyboards and dignity!

PRUDENCE NUANCE: I used Scrubnut for a week. My laptop is cleaner, my cuffs are not, and I can see both sides of that.
