Save 50 percent on Paramount Plus subscriptions, and get $60 off a solar-powered dash cam

It’s September, and many among us are dealing with back to school, and anticipating the colder weather that’s on its way (at least, if you live in the northern climes). This, plus a somewhat fraught political atmosphere, means that you might be looking for reliable, affordable ways to escape the doldrums.

You don’t need us to tell you that a way to do that is by watching some movies and TV shows. Through September 18th, Paramount is offering a doozy of a deal on both tiers of its Plus streaming service. You can save 50 percent on an annual subscription to Paramount Plus Essential, or its mostly ad-free Premium plan. The Essential Plan is down to $29.99 (from $59.99) and a Premium plan goes to $59.99 (from $119.99). The neat thing is that you can take advantage of this whether you’re a new or a returning subscriber (but be careful to mark your calendar; it will renew after that year at full price).

It’s a tempting deal, whether you go for the ad-supported Essential or the skip-the-ads Premium. The latter also lets you download your shows, which could be very handy when you’re traveling with kids, and from its library of Showtime Originals. Either way, you not only get recent shows like Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the entire Yellowstone catalog, Top Gun: Maverick, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, and Bob Marley: One Love, but animation series like South Park and SpongeBob Squarepants, and live NFL games. Also, it hosts every Mission Impossible movie, aside from the latest one, The Final Reckoning.

In the past decade, we’ve had three Venom films, six Spider-Man films, and zero instances of the two meeting. Oh, sure. Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock briefly spoke about Spider-Man at one point. And, way back in another multiverse, Tobey Maguire’s webslinger faced off against the symbiote. But in the current theatrical life cycle of both characters, in both live action and animation, the arch-enemies have yet to showdown.

And while we assume that wait continues with Spider-Man: Brand New Day (no spoilers here), some of the people responsible don’t want fans to give up hope. Speaking to Happy Sad Confused, Spider-Man: Brand New Day producers Amy Pascal and Kevin Feige talked about a potential meet-up between the Toms.

“It would be great, let’s put it that way,” Pascal said. Feige then added, “Always have hope,” before Pascal tagged on, “I have hope. We have hope.” Of course, that’s a whole lot of nothing. But what it isn’t is a “No.” Here’s the quote as part of a longer clip.

Okay, so assuming that team-up doesn’t happen in Brand New Day (nothing in the marketing has indicated it could, but we wouldn’t want to completely rule it out), when could it happen?

Pascal did confirm the recent news of a Venom animated movie being in the works. So, maybe we see it happen in animation. Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse is also in the works, and it’s been well-established in that world that every Spider-Man or Spider-Man-adjacent movie is part of an infinite Spider-Verse. Maybe it happens then.

Live action gets a little murkier, though. The general assumption is Holland’s Spider-Man will be seen after Brand New Day in 2027’s Avengers: Secret Wars. And that film is, again, rumored to feature all manner of cameos: Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine, Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man, etc. Surely Venom, an alien by origin, could feature in that in some way. But we don’t think so.

Honestly, the most likely place for this crossover would be a future Spider-Man film and, of course, none of those have been written yet. So “hope” is basically all there is. However, we can all but guarantee Brand New Day is going to be a massive financial success and force Sony to continue making Spider-Man movies. Venom seems like a perfect place for the story to go next. After Secret Wars, of course.

Do you think Tom Holland’s Spider-Man will ever fight Venom? And, if so, will it be Tom Hardy? Let us know below. And, if you are really craving that crossover, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 video game does a hell of a job of it.

It’s one of the most expensive for a reason, and comes with more attachments than any other model. I do find myself regularly grabbing the Fluffy Optic head for vacuuming my hard floors, which cover many square feet of my home. If you’re looking to really splurge on the best vacuum, this is still the one to get.

The only downside is compatibility with Dyson’s bigger attachments, namely a mop head or docking station. It doesn’t have a Submarine option like the V16 or V15, and Dyson’s Auto-empty Dok won’t work with this model. But if you aren’t worried about add-ons, this is the vacuum to buy. It’s had better sales since the launch of the new models, too.

The Runner-Up

The V16 Piston Animal’s powerful 315 air watts of suction did pretty well on almost every test. My only issue with this vacuum compared to the Gen5Detect is that it was more likely to push small debris (in my tests, both sand and litter) into a pile in front of itself if you were vacuuming a large spill. Gen5Detect did better all around, but the V16 Piston Animal stayed close behind that hiccup.

It’s a powerful all-around vacuum with some nice design upgrades to make it a little easier to use. This newer model has a release below the vacuum motor to release the cleaner head without having to bend down, and built-in crevice tools to both the handheld motor and the long wand that makes up the middle of the device. There’s also a compressor to help push dust out of the dustbin, and it’ll be compatible with Dyson’s upcoming self-emptying docking station. There’s also a Submarine version ($1,100) so you can use this vacuum as a mop, too.

It has some nice quality-of-life upgrades, but it’s really expensive. I’d recommend it if you know you also want to invest in the mop head and docking station; otherwise, just get the Gen5Detect.

The Affordable All-Arounder

One of the best overall performers is nearly half the price of my winners. The Dyson V10 Konical never once scored in last place, and was especially comfortable to use on carpets and rugs with the new cleaner head design. It did much better than the more expensive and powerful Gen5Detect and V15 Detect when vacuuming up sand, and I found it more comfortable to push around than the Digital Motorbar head on the V15 and V8 when it came to vacuuming a low-pile rug.
