Acclaimed cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema disagrees with Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos' stance that movies can be fully appreciated on a streamer/phone in the same way as on the big screen.

ICYMI, Ted faced online ridicule for saying his son watched the 1962 classic "Lawrence of Arabia" on his phone, and also singled out last year's "Oppenheimer," for which Hoyte won an Oscar, as a film that would be equally enjoyed away from the big screen.

Hoyte makes it clear to TMZ ... while he has no ill will toward Ted, he believes a pocket-sized screen doesn't hold a candle to the traditional theatrical experience.

Look out, future athletes -- WNBA star Brittney Griner says her baby on the way will 100% be involved in sports ... telling TMZ Sports it's a no-brainer!!

The Phoenix Mercury center has been a basketball star her whole life ... from recording 52 dunks her high school senior year to winning a title at Baylor in 2012 and earning a WNBA championship two years later.

Now that Griner and her wife, Cherelle, announced they're expanding their family ... we had to ask if the kiddo will follow in her footsteps and grow up with a ball in his hands.

Kathryn Dennis' recent DUI isn't the only legal woe on her plate, but it is the only one that's pressing at the moment ... 'cause a hit-and-run case her car was involved in is still in limbo.

Here's the deal ... the "Southern Charm" star might've recently been involved in a DUI bust in South Carolina -- but there's another case that has ties to her (or her vehicle, more like) in the same state ... in which her car is alleged to have been involved in a hit-and-run.

This happened way back in October -- Kathryn was identified as a suspect in a hit-and-run investigation after a sheriff’s deputy was injured outside an elementary school ... although she was never arrested or charged with a crime because they couldn't pin her as the driver.

Donald Trump was in the building at UFC 302 Saturday night -- just 2 days later and 9 miles away from the NYC courtroom where he was convicted this week -- and the former president received a rousing standing ovation from the packed crowd!

Trump walked into the Prudential Center shortly after the main card kicked off, flanked by UFC honcho and close friend, Dana White, and a gang of Secret Service agents.

45 was shown on the big screen inside the Newark, NJ arena, and many of the near-17k MMA fans lost it!

“The round of applause he’s getting right now is pretty staggering,” Joe Rogan reacted on the broadcast.

As Trump made his way to his seat, he shook dozens of hands ... including Rogan's.

One person who didn't stand up, or even appear to cheer, was Jets star quarterback Aaron Rodgers who was sitting with former teammate Marcedes Lewis. AR is close with DT opponent Robert Kennedy Jr. ... who even considered the 4x NFL MVP as his running mate. RFK Jr. instead selected Nicole Shanahan.

If the standing ovation wasn't enough of a clue that the crowd was decidedly in Trump's favor (Aaron aside) ... the "F*** Joe Biden" was surely all the proof you need.

Trump ultimately sat right up against the Octagon, next to White. Kevin Holland, after an impressive armbar stoppage, approached Donald and shared a few words with the 2024 presidential candidate. Sean Strickland also showed love to DT after his win against Paulo Costa.

Of course, the arrival of Trump comes just over 48 hours after he was convicted on 34 criminal counts in a New York City courthouse.

Kylie and Kendall Jenner know how to party ... belting out Billie Eilish lyrics and pounding a couple cold ones in a new video posted to social media.

The video went up on Kylie's IG Saturday ... showing her and her older sis as they sing along to Billie's hit song, "L’Amour de Ma Vie" from her newest album. And, ya gotta watch the clip 'cause the ladies have the best time while it plays.

The duo sing along to the lyrics, bouncing around in their seats ... and, even sipping on what look like a couple of Estrella Galicia beers -- nothing like a little buzz to get the party going!

Marlon Wayans says he's enjoying a simplified sex life these days ... preferring good old-fashioned missionary to more acrobatic lovemaking.

The actor-comedian got real about himself doing the deed during an interview with People, published Saturday ... admitting he's less inclined to go for circus-like sex as he's gotten older.

Marlon says he appreciates the simple stuff like "Missionary — it's great. I don't need to swing from ceilings and twist up nothing, because after we're done, I can just go right to sleep."

Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever got the win against the Chicago Sky on Saturday but boy, things got physical .... including a cheap shot that sent the number one pick to the hardwood, drawing applause from rival Angel Reese!

It was a full house at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis for the first WNBA match-up between Reese and Clark ... and they picked up right where they left things off in college!

The game was intense, and the Fever was thrilled to come away with their second win of the season. Clark wasn't happy with the body check from Angel's teammate, Chennedy Carter.

Sofia Vergara's all about cutting down on waste ... revealing she's repurposing a tattoo for her ex-husband Joe Manganiello as a tribute to her current boyfriend!

The actress joined "The Talk" earlier this week with her son Manolo when the topic of tats came up -- and, her kid reveals he's got more than 30 different tattoos covering his body.

Vergara cracks jokes at her boy's expense -- calling him out for covering the "beautiful Latin skin" she gave him. So, Manolo fires back ... pointing out his mom's a hypocrite 'cause she's got ink too.

"The Garfield Movie" is a kitty with claws it seems ... 'cause the movie's taking out the competition left and right at the box office -- including "Mad Max: Furiosa."

The animated family film will eek out the top spot at the box office this weekend, according to Deadline ... beating out "Mad Max: Furiosa" $13 million to $11.5 million.

Last weekend, almost went the cat's way too ... though ultimately 'MM:F' took the top spot $32.3 million to $31.2 million -- paltry totals for both flicks but especially bad for 'Furiosa' with its huge production and advertising budgets.

Jason Kelce's taken a bizarre stance on X ... claiming he never washes his feet and people shouldn't trust "Big Soap" -- and, many are taking it as a shot at his bro's teammate.

The former Eagles center took to the popular social media site Saturday and engaged a troll who claims JK doesn't wash. Instead of letting the insult lie or firing back, Jason seemed to play into it, writing "What kind of weirdo washes their feet..."

It's a perfect way to handle a troll, ya gotta say ... agreeing with the joke to take its power away -- but, then the big man doubles down on his wisecrack.

Diplo's in the Pride Month spirit ... posting a totally nude pic of himself -- with a rainbow exploding from where the sun don't shine.
