Welcome to Late Night Roundup, a rundown of the previous night’s highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now.
‘Operation Take Away Grandpa’s iPad’
President Trump addressed concerns about the dangers of A.I. on Monday, calling the outcry “a hoax.”
“He said the robots will not be taking over the world, which is exactly what the president says at the beginning of the movie where the robots take over the world,” Jimmy Kimmel said on Thursday.
“Meanwhile, Trump’s advisers are worried about it. According to The Wall Street Journal, senior officials in the White House have been meeting almost daily to discuss ways of convincing the president to put up more guardrails against A.I. to protect us. They’re calling it ‘Operation Take Away Grandpa’s iPad.’” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“And almost every day they get together to talk about A.I. and develop plans for how to keep us safe, which they then bring to the president, who then tells them about his uncle who worked at M.I.T., eats his lunch, and falls asleep.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“If you want him to take the threat of A.I. seriously, it’s real simple: Tell him ChatGPT is about to release the Trump-Epstein files. I’ll bet — I’ll bet 100 bucks he’ll get Pandora stuffed right back in that box.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
The Punchiest Punchlines (‘Hold For Booing’ Edition)
“Well, get this, last night during a speech in North Carolina, Trump said high gas prices are a ‘very inexpensive price to pay’ for the war. Then his teleprompter said, ‘Hold for booing.’” — JIMMY FALLON
“We’ve got a problem with diesel, and I mean the fuel source, not the brand of jeans worn exclusively by disgusting Europeans.” — MICHAEL KOSTA
“And the cost is even more when you count all the military bases we have to repair, all the equipment we’ll have to fix, all the Iran war championship T-shirt merch we had to throw away.” — MICHAEL KOSTA
“I’m starting to think it’s bad that our entire economy is built on extracting oil from incredibly narrow waterways in the world’s most volatile region.” — MICHAEL KOSTA
