Are big budget productions back to using red cameras for high frame rate work?

I noticed that both supergirl and spiderman: brand new day used the red raptor x for high frame rate work (as per their asc articles) where something like a phantom might've been used previously, is this because of vision research stepping back from the cinema field given they seemingly discontinued their phantom flex and other cinema focused cameras and thus putting support in jeopardy or is it more that the raptor is acceptable enough frame rate wise and it's more in line with big budget vfx-heavy workflows?

Mansory made a urus bodykit that doesn't look completely awful and the Instagram comments from their typical fans killed them for it, omegalul

Like, you had mfs saying they preferred the previous bodykits (remember the venatus?). like, I know by now depending of where on Instagram that if the Instagram comments section says it's bad it's actually good because they have no taste but this is just ridiculous.

Does anyone here have any information on the 2x anamorphic n16 filming format known as tronchet scope?

I know it was used for low budget widescreen films like Japon (directed by Carlos Reygadas) and I Stand Alone (directed by Gaspar Noe), and that it was used with Zeiss super speeds (dubbed G.O. in france where the system is rented out and created by Thierry Tronchet). But does anyone have any information on the scope itself? (the sources I've read thus far refer to the scope as hypergonar but I don't know of a hypergonar branded scope that would go as wide even to the 18mm focal length on normal 16mm, which would be a 35mm equivalent of 61mm)

Can I use the base line-in inputs on the Alexa 35 alongside the inputs on the aem-1 at the same time?

Like say I wanted to use a lavalier on the line in and a shotgun on the aem-1 with phantom power, is that possible?
