given more than $1.4 million in contributions since the election cycle nearly all of it to democrats. harvey weinstein did issue this statement. he said i came of age in the 60 and 70's when all the rules about behavior in work places were different. that was the culture then. i have since learned it's in the an excuse. in the office or out of it to anyone. i realize sometime ago that i needed to be a better person and the reactions with the people i work have changed. i appreciate the way i have behaved with colleagues in the past has caused a lot of pain and i sincerely apologize for it. but all while saying that, weinstein and his legal team have also criticized the new york times report announcing that he was intending to file a lawsuit against the newspaper for $50 million in damages. and the latest word this morning is that the weinstein company will change its name as an individual with knowledge of the company said the weinstein name has been irretrievably tainted by the

until place that is clean and sanitized. i want to cover exactly what that means. >> okay. >> when you go to the salon to get these eye lash extensions you should be making sure that your technician is washing their hands and using gloves. the second most important thing there's going to be these blue bags that is how they sanitize the tools and sterilize them. if your tools the tweezers and scissors they use to place those eye lashes do not come out of a sealed blue bag like this, you should not be using those or you should ask the technician that's placing those eye lashes hay are my tools sterilized. shouldn't be of a phoned by that this is your eye you're dealing with when they don't use sterilized tools you get infections, you can get scratches to the eye. >> ouch. >> very dangerous stuff. >> so it's not that it's unsafe but you have to follow these safety procedures. >> arrive ten to 15 minutes earlier before your appointment so you can test that glue. one of the top things i see in female patient who's get extensions is

my god my eye is itching they had allergic reaction. test the glue before. veneto between minutes can i borrow the glue to test it. i get allergies. test it on the inside your arm if it turns red, bubbly very very itchy that is not the glue for you. >> that's good. something like this how would we even know? whoever is going, how would you even know you're supposed to look out for. >> you just -- you're watching today. >> that's exactly. >> you have to really look out for the cleanliness. if you say, hey, they didn't change the sheets before i laid down or you my tools didn't look sanitary, you're paying a lot of money and these your eyes. >> and you'll have to go back. if you go to one place you have to keep going back. >> you have to get them refilled. for those of us who can't do the i lash extension procedures, some people use these fake eye lashes going out or whatever for work. i will say they're specifically designed to be used only maybe one or two times. if yours are frayed and the edges are kind of ripped.

big under views today. right after i'm done with the live shots i'll be heading over to my interviews. i'm interviewing everybody from josh brolin to miles teller but i guess the big movie is thor rag to rock the 17th film in the marvel cinematic universe. these 17, 16 prior films have already made $12.6 billion at the box office. just a money making money obviously these thor films they've struggled in the past. the first two weren't loved by a lot of the marvel fans. so people are wondering how this third one will be. i'm sitting down with chris hemsworth today as well as mark ruffalo and the cast as well and tess is a thompson in creed. i saw the film last night around 4:00 p.m. here then i went to premier for only the brave which steve and i were discussing earlier this morning in the 6am hour. i wasn't a hundred% familiar with this whole story. but this is about the

night hot shots a group of firefighters who risked over to protect a town from a historic wildfire in the real life story as lost people know, there were all of them lost their lives except for one who had gone back to camp essentially he was looking out for the weather. but it is tragic story, and josh brolin is the lead of the film. he plays eric marsh in the movie last night i went to the premier here in los angeles. a lot of the family members were there of the fallen firef firefighters, and it was just emotional screening. very emotional being in that crowd last night watching that film. i walk out and saw miles teller and josh brolin and james batch dell who plays the characters in the film. sitting down with real life survivor today that miles teller plays in the movie. so i'm interested to hearing their thoughts on that, and it's very fascinating how they were able to pull this film off with the filming of the fire seq sequences i'm interested to to talk to the director and the cast about that and also taylor kitch much that's all today here in los angeles. >> such a tragic story. going to be tough to tal

witness survivor today. >> yeah. real life person. >> i was honestly -- i was really move by the story. i know that it happened years ago, but i just -- i wasn't familiar with how tragic it r really was. that essentially all of them lost their lives except for the one survivor. it's a very tough story to watch. i'll interested to hear the actors talk about meeting with the families and the wives and the kids and kind of what that process was for them. >> let's switch it up gone from real life heroes to the world of super heroes. everybody coming together, kev. >> yeah. justice league is coming out in november 1 of the most anticipated films of the year. yesterday trailer was released online. we can start rolling it now if you want to see it but essentially it started off you had these cool moments with wonder woman and aqua man. one of the cool parts of the trailer if you saw batman versus superman henry calfville's superman died at the end. we saw the dust raise and we knew he was going to come back somehow. but this trailer kind of gives a glimpse into maybe what

see chenevey calfville in the latest justice league film it's a dream sequence in the beginning we see him in the fields and amy adams walks out of the some of the cool moments in the trailer i liked were the combination of all of them working together. it's very very wonder woman heavy. i'm not sure if you guys are familiar with the history of this. zac schneider was directing his film. he left the project after his daughter committed suicide, and josh weeden actually stepped in to help finish the film and doree seats shoots. the phlegm has a lot of history in regards to the changing of the film makers, the total elements of it. i'm interested to see how the movie kind of comes together with all of these things that were happening obviously surrounding it. the director change and things like that. so i know that zac schneider will still get directing credit. weeden came to help out with the reshoot. i'm interested to see how that will play out in the large scheme of the movie and ben of a flashback and forth whether he'll stay on batman for the solo film that. film comes

i'll be covering in november at some point. >> remember when we used to have summer blockbuster, now, now we're having november and december blockbusters it's the season. >> summer movies starting earlier now. the march and april are becoming the new summer months for movie like logan and things like that. if you're a football fan which i think everybody watching is monday night vikings bears bears a treat for star wars fans. if you want to stay up. they're going to be trailer released it's on espn which makes sense considering espn owned by disney and abc it makes sense why they're releasing it there because disney is releasing star wars. wee get a brand mew trailer and the movie comes out in december. i'm excited to see what they release if there's any information about who the last jedi or is. we'll get more information hopefully tonight in the tra trailer. >> very cool. a lot coming up, kev. thanks very much. see you on good day. >> 8:53. stay with us. fox5 helping you get back into the work week on this monday morning. we have much more coming up.
