Here is proof you can take something quite familiar and make it sing in ways that feel fresh, funny, warm and exhilarating.

The animated feature film “Entergalactic” on Netflix has a storyline straight out of the Rom-Com Playbook — I mean, our hero falls in love with a girl who literally lives next door. But the story is told with some of the most strikingly beautiful and memorably trippy visuals I’ve seen in a long time, augmented by a steady diet of infectious music by the film’s co-creator and star, Kid Cudi, with a finger directly on the pulse of millennial and Gen Z culture as experienced by young Black professionals.

This is a blazingly original piece of work, directed with great style by Fletcher Moules and essentially serving as a long-form video for Scott “Kid Cudi” Mescudi’s upcoming album, also titled “Entergalactic.” The fusion of music and narrative works wonderfully as we follow a group of well-drawn (in more ways than one), hilarious, likable and empathetic characters.

Set in a New York brimming with neon-rich shades of purple, maroon, yellow and orange (the style is reminiscent of “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse”), “Entergalactic” stars Kid Cudi as Jabari, a street artist who has recently landed a major deal to turn his graffiti creation “Mr. Rager” into a series of comic books. Shortly after moving into his new, spacious, loft apartment in Manhattan, Jabari runs into his ex-girlfriend Carmen. (In one of the film’s many clever visual touches, the logo on a FedEx truck morphs into a graphic telling us Carmen is the “Ex.”)

Upon hearing about Jabari’s new comic book deal, Carmen’s eyes light up and she suggests they get a drink, soon. Sure enough, Jabari hooks up with Carmen — but in the morning, he makes it clear they should just be friends. It’s time for the next chapter in Jabari’s life.

With Kid Cudi tunes such as “By Design” (with Andre Benjamin), “Do What I Want” and “Willing to Trust” (with Ty Dolla $ign) providing the musical cues, we follow Jabari’s adventures as he gets high with his buddies (as visuals show him riding his bicycle up and away and into the pink skies), working on “Mr. Rager” — and striking up a relationship with a beautiful photographer named Meadow (Jessica Williams) who lives right next door to him. (Upon learning Jabari is considering a romance with a neighbor, his friend tells a fall-down funny story about hooking up with a woman in the laundry room in his building. That sequence alone would earn the film a hard R rating were it a theatrical release.)

Even as “Entergalactic” continues to dazzle us with creative visuals, often involving the countless ways in which light can refract when bouncing off and through windows, a glass of wine, the streets of Chinatown, you name it, the storyline follows that rom-com blueprint. We get the obligatory romantic interlude, walks in the rain, a sex montage and of course a Big Misunderstanding that could easily be cleared up with one simple conversation.

One of the things I loved about “Entergalactic” is how the main characters look like their voice actors, to one degree or another. (Weed dealer Jimmy sort of resembles Timoth?e Chalamet; Carmen is an exact double for Laura Harrier.) It somehow makes them come across as more “real,” more endearing, more wonderful. This is one of my favorite animated movies of the year.

MINNEAPOLIS — With nothing to play for but a winning record and second place, it’s all about consolation prizes for the White Sox.

Or more like booby prizes considering the team’s expectations going into the 2023 season, and the way this one is ending. With an 8-4 loss to the Twins Wednesday, the Sox matched their season high eighth straight defeat and now share second place with Minnesota with a 76-79 record.

With September going into free fall, acting manager Miguel Cairo, whose record in charge dropped to 13-14 after a 13-6 start, is running out of things to say.

“There’s nothing else you can say,” Cairo said. “You gotta put it behind. Come back tomorrow and do better. It’s that simple.”

“We’re not playing good baseball,” said losing pitcher Johnny Cueto, who gave up six runs on 10 hits over 5 2/3 innings, his ERA increasing from 3.15 to 3.39.

“We’re going to finish the way we started, we’re going to finish strong,” Cairo said before the game. “I cannot play for them, I cannot pitch for them. They’ve got to do it, they’ve got to have the will, the pride to go out there and do his job.”

Cueto, who stabilized the rotation after being signed to a minor league contract in the spring, will make his last start Monday against the Twins at Guaranteed Rate Field. A free agent after the season, it could be his last in a Sox uniform.

Cueto’s uneven start featured four straight hits allowed in the second, then striking out five in a row before giving up three hits in a row in the fourth.

Cairo defends Moncada

Yoan Moncada fouled a pitch off his foot Tuesday night, was limping around Wednesday and having X-Rays for precautionary reasons. He is day to day, Cairo said.

Moncada is batting .212/.278/.358 with 12 homers and a .635 OPS in 98 games. Cairo said Moncada never found his footing this season.

“No excuses but you get hurt the last day of spring training and you miss one month, you’re always going to be playing catchup,” Cairo said.

Cairo also defended Moncada’s laid-back manner.

“A lot of people get him wrong because of the way he is,” Cairo said. “He reminds me of Robinson Cano. When I was with the Yankees [as a coach] everyone said he was too laid back, he was lazy. No, he wasn’t. That was the way he played the game. That was himself. Moncy, he’s so talented. This season, with the injuries he had, in the beginning, it was tough.”

Abreu 300th double

Luis Robert used a translator for a 15-minute interview but answered the last question in English.

“One hundred percent,” he said.

The question? Do the White Sox need Jose Abreu back next season.

Abreu, who will be 36 next year, will be a free agent after the season. He had two hits, including his 300th career double and an RBI single. He also had a misplay after fielding a ground ball, stopping short of throwing home to cut down a run and allowing Matt Wallner to beat him to first base for a single.

Arvid Soderblom is listed at 6-3, 190 pounds, and plays even bigger, so filling the goal is never going to be a problem.

But one area in which the 23-year-old Swedish goaltending prospect determined he could improve is his lateral movement, since his natural size and reflexes can’t help him as much with that. He spent his summer working on it.

“To move fast and be in position early, it gives you more time to make the saves and [place] good rebounds and all that,” Soderblom said recently. “If you’re in position early and you beat the pass, you’re going to make it look easy.”

Facing his younger brother — Red Wings forward prospect Elmer Soderblom — for the first time on NHL ice Wednesday, Arvid Soderblom saved 31 of 33 shots in a 4-2 Hawks win.

Soderblom will likely start the season back in the AHL, where he posted a .919 save percentage last season; the Hawks want him as developed as possible before promoting him to the NHL full-time. But an injury to Petr Mrazek or Alex Stalock — two historically injury-prone goalies at that –could alter the plan, and he wouldn’t complain.

“I see opportunities,” he said. “I’m trying to focus on all the positive stuff. I’m here, I have a chance, and I know that.”

Prospect connection

The goal won’t officially count anywhere, but Kevin Korchinski and Lukas Reichel’s play that gave the Hawks a 2-1 first-period lead Wednesday might be –from a long-term perspective — one of the more meaningful goals the Hawks score all year.

Korchinski, the Hawks’ best defensive prospect, carried the puck from behind his net to the blue line, then delivered a beautiful, perfectly placed saucer pass through four Wings to set up Reichel, the Hawks’ best forward prospect, on a breakaway. Reichel then coolly slotted the puck home.

The penalty kill, utilizing a new, more aggressive system installed by coach Luke Richardson, also encouragingly went 3-for-3 Wednesday after allowing three goals Tuesday.

Alternate captains

Seth Jones will wear an “A” as an alternate captain during Hawks home games this season while Connor Murphy will wear the “A” during road games, Richardson said Wednesday.

That’s in addition to the obvious titles: Jonathan Toews as captain, Patrick Kane as alternate captain everywhere. Last season, Murphy and Alex DeBrincat shared the second “A.”

“[Murphy] has a little more veteran leadership than maybe Seth, [and] he’s been here longer, so [we’ll] put him on the road where it’s a little harder to get the referee’s attention,” Richardson said. “Seth is a big part of the organization and it’s time for him to take a step, be even a bigger leader in the dressing room.”

After rookie Hayden Wesneki’s last start, in Pittsburgh, he was asked if pitching in the big-leagues is as easy as he’s made it look. He chuckled.

“No, it’s really not,” he said. “There’s a lot of preparation that goes into it. Plus, I have two great catchers that helped me out with this kind of stuff – and then the staff on top of it. They’ve made it really easy to be comfortable here. But no, I’m just on a roll right now.”

That roll continued into Wednesday against the Phillies at Wrigley Field. In the Cubs’ 4-2 winhe held Philadelphia to one run through five-plus innings.

That gave him a 2.33 ERA through five outings. All three of his starts have been at least five innings, and he has yet to allow more than two runs in a start.

“He knows what he wants to do,” Cubs pitching coach Tommy Hottovy said. “He knows what makes him successful. That, in and of itself, is such a huge thing for young guys to be able to do when they come up. … Yes, we’re going to be able to find ways to continue to work on things and home things in, but his knowledge of himself, what makes him tick, what makes him good, I think is the key foundation for what he does.”

Things won’t always look this easy. As Wesneski pitches more, as happens with all rookies, teams around the league will get more information on him. And once they have more detailed scouting reports on him, he’ll have to adjust.

On a smaller scale, he’s already gone through part of that process. He realized that even though his slider has good movement, big-league hitters are going to be able to get ahold of it if he’s always throwing it in the middle of the plate. He adjusted before his first start and has even thrown a slider-heavy immaculate inning since.

“He knows that if things go awry, he has a bad outing or two, it’s not back to the drawing board changing everything,” Hottovy said. “It’s like minor adjustments, minor things, and he just gets better.”

Steele running out of season

Lefty Justin Steele “threw really well,” in his bullpen Tuesday, according to manager David Ross, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll be back from the injured list this season.

Steele (low back strain) is scheduled for another high-intensity bullpen. After that, Hottovy said, the Cubs will determine whether they want Steele to get in a game for a couple innings or turn his attention to the offseason, knowing he ended this year healthy.

“It just makes sense to me to just go ahead and send him off on a high note,” Ross said, “to make sure he’s healthy and let him go ahead and start implementing the routine and the [offseason] program.”

Despite a poor season overall in 2022, the Chicago Cubs have a bright spot with pitcher Hayden Weseneski

It is not a secret that the Chicago Cubs have struggled in the team’s 2022 campaign. They are currently 68-86 and sitting 21.5 games out of first place in the division and 15.5 games out of a wild card spot.

Between injuries and lack of production, there has not been many great things about the Chicago Cubs this year.

One of the few bright spots is the Cubs’ 24-year old prospect acquired in the Scott Effross trade, Hayden Wesneski. Wesneski recently made his MLB debut on September 6 of this season. He had a debut that kids can’t even dream of, going 5 shutout innings and only surrendering 2 hits. He also just threw an immaculate inning last week in Pittsburgh (9 pitches, 9 strikes, 3 strikeouts).

After a stellar debut, Wesneski is now sporting a 2-1 record, with a 2.45 era, 4 walks, and 24 strikeouts. His ability to throw his slider anywhere in the zone in any given count is something that has led him to an unbelievable start to his young career.

To go with his wipeout slider, Wesneski has also showed a presence on the mound that many pitchers struggle to present. That presence that Wesneski has is an intimidation factor that he can use to his advantage.

Watching Wesneski pitch, it is obvious that he has a confidence about him that can also be found in some of the top arms in the game, like Scherzer, Kershaw, and Verlander. Having this confidence has allowed him to excel at the highest level so far to date.

The one thing that scouts were worried about with Wesneski was his fastball. They thought that it may be very hittable at the big league level since it only sits in the low 90s while most guys sit in the mid-upper 90s.

Wesneski has shut his critics up so far as he has proven his fastball is just fine for the MLB level. Part of the reason for this is that he tends to hide his fastball so that hitters pick it up later in his throwing motion, which makes the fastball seem faster than it is.

The other wonderful thing about his fastball is that it mimics the release point of all his other pitches. This means that, out of the hand, hitters can not tell what pitch is coming until it is too late, as you can see below in the video via Pitching Ninja:

Wesneski is doing great so far in his young career, but if he can add some velocity to the fastball then he may find himself as a premier pitcher in the MLB in a few years. That is not an over-exaggeration, he is that good.

If you’re a Cubs fan, do yourself a favor and look at Wesneski’s highlights whenever you feel the urge to look at the standings. There are bright things ahead for this young man and the Chicago Cubs.

A state-of-the-art football stadium is coming to Evanston, pending approval from the city.

But a promised state-of-the-art game-day experience, let alone winning Northwestern football teams to go with it? We’d all be wise to wait and see on those fronts.

A massive project involving the demolition of Ryan Field after the 2023 season and the construction of a new, privately funded stadium at the same site — to be completed in time for the start of the 2026 season — was approved last week by the university’s board of trustees. Crain’s estimated the cost of the project at $800 million.

That’s a hefty price tag for what’s planned as a 35,000-seat venue — down from Ryan Field’s current 47,000-plus, already the lowest seating capacity in the Big Ten — but there’s big-time ambition behind what the school describes as a “world-class home” that will deliver a “best-in-the-nation experience” for fans and players.

The new Ryan Field would be the third-smallest Power Five stadium based on current capacities — exceeding only those at Duke and Wake Forest — and would, according to Northwestern, be the first Power Five stadium built without public money this century. Namesakes Patrick and Shirley Ryan and family donated $480 million to the school last year as part of a fundraising campaign that raised $6.1 billion.

“I have no doubt that the privately funded stadium will be a game-changer for our football program, athletics department and the community,” athletic director Derrick Gragg said in an official statement.

But there are several key questions, chief among them: Could there be a stadium swanky enough to make Northwestern football fans out of sports fans in the area who have demonstrated clearly to this point that they just aren’t interested?

The Big Ten has three stadiums (at Michigan, Ohio State and Penn State) that seat over 100,000. It has two others (at Nebraska and Wisconsin) in the 80,000s and three others (at Michigan State, Iowa and Illinois) above 60,000. Ryan Field is the only stadium in the league with fewer than 50,000 seats, and still it’s routinely emptier than most of the others. And the more full it is, the reason, without fail, is there are more fans who traveled to cheer on the visiting school.

The artist’s renderings of the new stadium sent out by the school portray, of course, a full-house crowd that’s a beautiful ocean of purple. In reality, it’s probably never going to look close to that.

Also, where will the Wildcats play “home” games in 2024 and 2025? According to a university source, any stadium that can accommodate 20,000 fans could be considered. Soldier Field is an obvious possibility, but there are never-ending problems with the grass field there — hadn’t you heard? — that make the idea of Saturday and Sunday games there throughout the season almost laughable based on what we know now.

Wrigley Field and Guaranteed Rate Field have teams that play in September, though potentially not very much at all in October. SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview? A game at Northern Illinois here, one at Notre Dame there? It’s all speculation.

Some pluses: The new stadium design will bring fans closer to the field, a tight, yet apparently quite comfortable (seatbacks for everyone!) squeeze that should help fans engage more with the action. Also, the stadium and stadium campus will host concerts, plays, seasonal festivals, holiday events, movie nights and other nice things.

Then again, Evanston is a funny place when it comes to football, crowds, traffic, noise and the like. In many college towns, the chaos of football Saturdays is expected and embraced. Folks in lovely Evanston tend not to be as enthusiastic about the inconveniences therein. Thus, Northwestern is taking pains to “address public concerns” as part of the rollout of its plan.

For example, the school is touting a “landscaping buffer and a state-of-the-art stadium canopy” to “reduce the impacts of noise and light on the neighborhood.”

Reduce the noise? Dim the lights? Really?

That doesn’t sound like big-time college football at all.

MINNEAPOLIS — It goes without saying the White Sox need Luis Robert and Tim Anderson healthy and on the field next season.

Plenty has to change, and it will, perhaps in the managerial seat and maybe on the coaching staff and certainly in their roster construction as the Sox attempt to fix what went terribly wrong in 2022. But they need their top stars at premium positions of shortstop and center field playing more games.

“Robert is one of the horses on this team; when he goes, we go,” acting manager Miguel Cairo said Wednesday. “He and TA, one of the other horses. When those two go, the rest of the team goes. We miss them both but that’s part of the game, you get injuries. But hopefully they will come next season ready to be part of something.”

He gave in to the pain in his left wrist and called it a season after a lengthy battle to play through it. Anderson, who had surgery on the middle finger of his left hand, was planning on playing the last two weeks and in a postseason that was supposed to come but didn’t, but shut it down when it became apparent there would be no such thing.

In hindsight, Robert regrets not going on the injured list. Hitting coach Frank Menechino warned early on that playing hurt would affect his swing, and Robert says it did.

“It was the best decision we could make, especially after you saw how I tried to help the team during those games,” Robert said through translator Billy Russo. “I tried and the team realized that even with my best effort, it wasn’t enough to help them in a good way.

Robert played in 97 games, Anderson in 79, poster guys for a season fraught with injuries. Robert was viewed by some as a preseason Most Valuable Player candidate. Anderson made the AL All-Star team for the second season in a row.

Robert said he tried to push through because the team was making a push for the postseason. He has already dealt with a minor groin strain, blurred vision and COVID-19.

“I asked them to let me try to play,” Robert said. “I also think it was my mistake because I didn’t realize at that moment that trying to do that, I wasn’t helping them.

“Throughout that process, I was making some bad habits.”

Robert had three specialists examine the wrist and will have it looked at it by another in two weeks he said.

“Depending on the results of that checkup, then they will let me know what we are going to do,” he said.

In any event, coming to spring training in the best possible shape is the key to staying as healthy as possible during the season, Cairo said.

“In the offseason, that’s when you get ready to go into spring training and to be ready to play for six months and sometimes seven, because that’s the goal, to play seven months, all the way to the World Series,” Cairo said. “But everything starts in the offseason. Everything. This offseason was tough because of the lockout.”

Robert chalks up a portion of the Sox woes to “inconsistent” play, injuries and some bad hitters’ luck on balls in play in key moments.

“The things that we can control is how we prepare, how we go out there and approach the game,” Robert said. “More often than not we did a good job. We have to keep doing it next year, try to do our best, and that’s the only thing that we can control.”

Running back David Montgomery did not practice and is day to day after suffering an ankle injury against the Texans last week. But with Khalil Herbert averaging 7.3 yards a carry, the Bears’ running game is less likely to suffer.

Herbert ably took the lead role against the Texans after Montgomery left early in the first quarter. The 2021 sixth-round pick rushed for 157 yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries — the most rushing yards in the NFL in Week 3. His 52-yard run on the Bears’ first offensive play of the second half led to Herbert’s one-yard touchdown run that gave the Bears a 20-17 lead.

In three games, Herbert has 33 carries for 240 yards and three touchdowns. He’s sixth in the NFL among running backsinrushing. His 7.3-yard average is second among running backs with 10 or more carries. He has nine carries of 10 yards or more. Only the Browns’ Nick Chubb (10, on 62 carries) has more.

Though Montgomery is the Bears’ lead running back, Herbert keeps pushing for a bigger role every time he plays. In four games as a replacement for Montgomery last season, he had 78 carries for 344 yards (4.4 avg.) — rushing for 97 yards on 18 carries against the Packers and 100 yards on 18 carries against the Buccaneers.

But Herbert said he feels even more comfortable in Luke Getsy’s offense.

“We put detail into everything,” Herbert said. “And just knowing where the o-line’s gonna be, who they’re going to — stuff like that helps me prepared throughout the week, so when I get in the game it’s the same thing we’ve done in practice already.

“It feels real different. Since April, the stuff we’ve put in and being able to go through it and build this offense together, [it] definitely feels more comfortable.”

Injury report

Besides Montgomery, cornerback Jaylon Johnson (quad) did not practice. Linebacker Roquan Smith (quad), wide receiver Velus Jones (hamstring) and tight end Ryan Griffin (achilles) were limited.

Eberflus, who gives very little information on injured players, said Johnson is “doing good,” but did not speculate on his status for Sunday’s game against the Giants.

Linebacker Matt Adams (hamstring) and safety Dan Cruikshank (hamstring) did not practice.

Butkus visit

Bears Hall of Fame linebacker Dick Butkus — the embodiment of the H.I.T.S. principle before Eberflus ever dreamed of it — visited Halas Hall on Tuesday.

Not surprisingly, the 79-year-old Butkus was a big hit when he took over the team’s Twitter account. And also with the coaching staff and their families at a family dinner the Bears host.

“It was awesome to have him here. It was special,” Eberflus said. “I got a chance to take him up to my office and show him the Monsters of the Midway behind my desk. Of course, he’s on top, which is cool. He really liked seeing that. It was a joy to visit with him.”

It didn’t take long for Rich to replace Jamere Dismukes as basketball coach. The school hired former Orr and Englewood coach Lou Adams on Wednesday.

Adams turned Orr into a powerhouse, winning three state championships in his 12 years at the helm. He stepped down after last season.

“I wanted to take a little time after Orr and see if the right opportunity opened up,” Adams said. “I couldn’t believe the facility at Rich. They might have the best one in the state of Illinois. It’s a very exciting situation.”

The Rich gym was redone two years ago and the school recently completed construction of a fieldhouse with three regulation wood courts.

Dismuskes took over at Rich in the spring but never coached a game at the school. He left for Homewood-Flossmoor last week.

Adams says the players were pleased that the coaching saga was over.

“They were happy to see me,” Adams said. “I didn’t know if they would know me. I talked to them and the parents for about an hour and a half. It was a good meeting. They have a lot of talent.”

Senior Ray Austin and junior Tyler Wooten are expected to be the Raptors’ top players this season.

Adams, who lives on the South Side, will continue to work at Orr and just be coaching at Rich.

“It’s going to be a little strange coaching in the suburbs and not the Public League,” Adams said.

Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki returned from paternity leave with a shock of bleach blonde hair on top of his head.

“The baby keeps crying all night,” Suzuki said through interpreter Toy Matsushita. “So, it’s all the stress, it’s naturally turned blonde.”

He smiled.

Recovering from jet lag, after traveling back from Japan, Suzuki was out of the lineup for the second straight day on Wednesday. But he’d always planned on coming back to finish his first MLB season on the field.

As expected, Suzuki’s rookie year has featured a push and pull of adjustments. He started out hot, winning Rookie of the Month in April. Then, as pitchers got more data on him and adjusted to his tendencies, he slumped, batting .211 in May before spraining his left ring finger sliding into a base late in the month.

He’s found his stride late in the season. Suzuki entered Wednesday batting .314 since mid-August. He’d already hit three home runs in September, despite being away for a week and a half for the birth of his first child.

“There’s only so many games left in the season, and for the team to let me go back to be with my wife for my firstborn is something that I’m really really appreciative for,” Suzuki said. “So, I’m going to do my best to finish off this season strong for the team.”

The way manager David Ross sees it, timing has been the biggest factor in Suzuki’s recent success.

“The stretch where he struggled, you saw a lot of timing issues and him playing with leg kicks, and spreading out, and being a little bit taller, and how to see the ball and get off his A-swing as consistently as possible. Maybe feeling for it a little bit,” Ross said. “And then you saw when he got locked in, the timing looked better, he was all connected in the box mechanically. And you saw more aggressive swings, right-center, left-center power. That’s the guy that he knows he is and we believe he is.”

Suzuki also pointed to off the field influences.

“You’ve got to put into perspective just being in a different country,” he said. “So, you’ve got to get used to a new language, new culture, new atmosphere. That’s been one of the huge factors of me being able to succeed here. And recently, I’ve been able to adapt to it pretty easily [compared to] before. So, that’s one of the most important things, getting used to life.”

Suzuki, who the Cubs signed this past spring to a five-year, $85 million deal, is an integral piece in the club’s rebuild.

“There’s definitely real signs in there of an All-Star caliber player,” Ross said.

Suzuki himself has high expectations for next year.

“Obviously, personal statistics are important,” he said. “But for me, the most important is winning. When you win, the atmosphere in the locker room is amazing. So, that’s what I want to feel next year. I want to win with this team and win a championship.”

It’s an ambitious timeline.

Both Willson Contreras and Marcus Stroman this week were frank about the work the front office has to do to supplement the young talent and make this a competitive team.

“I love what we have, I love the young group of guys,” Stroman said, when asked specifically about the pitching staff. “I’ve said it before, I think we’re a few pieces away from being really, truly competitive in the league.”

An active offseason could make competing for the division title, at least, not look so far away.

“This team is really young,” Suzuki said. “And I feel if everyone understands what their role is and improves a lot more as a player on the field, I feel like we can become a really good team. And I think we’re really close to that, so I’m really excited for what’s ahead for us.”

In the meantime, Suzuki has a season to finish. And jet lag to battle.

“I really can’t get to sleep, so it’s been pretty tough,” he said. “I get a little sleepy during the games, so don’t ever get me on camera during the game today.
