In turn, Baker -- who, it should be noted, likes to talk about their rift with the media far more often than Daniels, so perceptions may be just a little bit skewed here -- freely throws shade at his robot partner, calling him boring, infuriating, and generally the rudest man he ever met. On the other hand, I'm going to go ahead and assume he's onto something, seeing as how recent years have also seen Daniels talking shit about Mark Hamill's appearance. Isn't it a travesty that the man dared to age several decades between Star Wars and The Force Awakens?

The hamster that lives inside BB-8 could not be reached for comment, but has been known to openly fart in both Baker and Daniels's general directions.

Shaw needled Dreyfuss relentlessly and called him a coward. He dared Dreyfuss to climb the Orca's 70-foot mast and jump in the ocean for $1,000, and when he refused, Shaw kept slapping more money on the offer until director Steven Spielberg had to intervene. Other times, Shaw threatened Dreyfuss with a fire hose until the latter stormed away from the set. The bullying was constant, and while Dreyfuss did get enough jabs in to qualify it as a feud, he himself admits that Shaw won the battle: "He acted like he had my number. And he did. He made me doubt things I already knew."

Moral of the story: Never, ever fuck with a man's drink.

In the years leading to Monroe's death and well after it, Curtis would keep alternately affirming and retracting his statement, his claims either painting Monroe as a horrible, mean bitch or attributing the whole thing to a wacky misunderstanding. Perhaps his weirdest claim came in his late-life autobiography, in which he suddenly asserted that the two were in fact heavily involved with each other in an on-set affair, and Marilyn was even carrying his baby (which she later tragically miscarried).

United Artists

Is there truth to any of this? I don't know. I also can't imagine why he would give such ridiculously contradictory statements over the years. However, I'm sure it totally had almost absolutely nothing to do with the fact that Monroe retorted to the Hitler comment by noting that she had to resort to sex fantasies and completely ignore Curtis to get through their more intimate scenes at all.

The seeds of their inevitable breaking apart were sown one night in 1981, when the more business-savvy McCartney showed Jackson a thick ledger filled with a huge list of songs he owned. Inspired by the fact that most of the Beatles' song copyrights had been signed off to Brian Epstein's Northern Productions, the future Sir Paul had developed a profitable business habit of buying the copyrights for songs by other artists, like Buddy Holly.

Jackson was blown away by his friend's business acumen, and got in the song-buying game with all his might. After a few years of feeding frenzy, including a fruitless effort to buy back the Jackson 5 catalog from Motown, his efforts finally struck platinum in 1985. Outbidding heavy hitters like Richard Branson and future Sony bigwig Marty Bandier, Jackson managed to acquire a large stake in the catalog of a publishing company called ATV.

Which owned Northern Productions.

Which owned the Beatles' back catalog.

20th Century Fox

In all fairness, Jackson did attempt to create as little turmoil as possible. His people contacted both Yoko Ono (who gleefully backed him after telling him she didn't intend to bid because she didn't want to have to deal with McCartney) and Paul's people, knowing that McCartney wouldn't bid because, not unreasonably, he didn't want to spend tens of millions on songs that he fucking wrote for free.

Jackson's purchase was also hugely motivated by admiration. He repeatedly told his people that the catalog had to be his because these were the best songs ever written. Still, whatever his motivations, he had just bought the rights to the vast majority of his friend's legacy. McCartney, who had fully assumed Jackson was just joking about the acquisition, didn't take it well. "I think it's dodgy to do something like that," he commented on the buyout. "To be someone's friend and then buy the rug they're standing on."

The two men never spoke or collaborated again. While Jackson airily dismissed the entire event as "just business," McCartney made several un-McCartneyishly bitter comments about his former friend over the years. Though to be fair, the fact that, under Jackson, his life's work ended up selling fucking running shoes probably didn't help matters.

Do you think that's a harsh header? Plot twist: It's actually a quote from Duchovny himself. Psych!

Back in the 1990s, we didn't really have internet, so pop culture discussion was mostly rumors and glossy magazine bullshit. Chief cast rumors of the era: Friends was the show where the actors got on super fine with each other, and The X-files was the one where the leading duo could barely stand each other.

Bright/Kauffman/Crane/Warner Bros.

This particular feud is peculiar, because it wasn't brought on by anyone being a dick per se. It's just that when you shoot 16-hour days in ass-swamp locations, repeatedly, for years and years, things are bound to get difficult. Looking at the timeline of their on-set difficulties paints a picture of two actors so deeply stuck in / committed to a show and the various contract disputes that come with it that their relationship couldn't help but develop some pretty deep cracks.

The X-files debuted in 1993. By 1996, the stars were already talking about their tendency to turn "psychotic" on set. After that, words like "strained" and "we have our moments" started getting thrown around, and videos of said strained moments started emerging in the form of award shows. Here's Duchovny calling Anderson "the best co-star anyone can hope for" at the 1997 Golden Globes, enticing the winning entry for the Eye-Rolling Olympics from Anderson.

Here's Anderson giving her acceptance speech, not bothering to mention Duchovny at all.

Accidental? Coincidental? Maybe, but there were plenty of such incidences, and over time, small streams become rivers. By 2000, their relationship was so apathetic and strained that Chris Carter himself suggested they should probably see somebody. Yes, the creator of The X-Files once tried to get his stars into couples therapy.

Alas, sometimes the only healer is time. Duchovny left the show after that season, and everyone did their own shit for a good while. And reading their amiable interviews and wisecracking Reddit AMAs these days, it's difficult to think of a time when the stars of X-files weren't joking around and freely shipping the various R-rated activities their characters went about during their off time.

The most visible Shatner critic today is without doubt media multi-presence George "Sulu" Takei. Despite the fact that Takei himself insists that whatever tension there may be comes from Shatner alone, he's also quick to point out his former Captain's failings as a team player and tendency to drum up whatever feud he has going whenever he needs a little attention. In the blue corner, Shatner is convinced that Takei harbors a grudge against him, and has gone on record reprimanding his ex-colleague with, fuck it, I'll just quote the guy: "Poor man. There is such a sickness there. It's so patently obvious that there is a psychosis there."

This was in retaliation to his not being invited to Takei's wedding. Which he had been invited to, but never RSVP'd for.

Paramount

And then there was Spock. Though they were rock-solid friends for the vast majority of their lives, Leonard Nimoy and Shatner feuded throughout the original series in deliciously petty ways. As Spock became more and more popular, Shatner started convincing the show makers to give some of the Vulcan's smarter lines to Kirk, a practice he'd also use on the other characters, to the point where Takei suggested Shatner wouldn't be happy until everyone else was gone and Star Trek was a monologue. Before long, things got petty. Shatner kept stealing the bicycle Nimoy used to get around the studio premises to wind him up. Meanwhile, Nimoy no doubt totally innocently arranged a photo shoot in the makeup room while Shatner was having his hairpiece applied, causing the latter to freak right the hell out.

As you may know, these little spats eventually turned into a 50-year friendship, which seemed cast in iron until the men arbitrarily fell out in Nimoy's final years. Shatner chose not to attend his friend's funeral.

Zoroastrianism used to be one of the biggest religions in the world, but their idea of heaven had a slight twist on it: To get there you'd have to cross a bridge, sometimes rickety, sometimes wide and sturdy. If you fell off, you'd go to the House of Lies for eternity. Fun! Not terrifying at all! This month, Jack, Dan, and Michael, along with comedians Casey Jane Ellison and Ramin Nazer discuss their favorite afterlife scenarios from movies, sci-fi, and lesser-known religions.
