In 2019, Activision announced it was rebooting the legendary Call of Duty: Modern Warfare subseries and calling it…Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Obviously, that isn’t confusing at all. It was inevitable that the rebooted Modern Warfare would receive a sequel, and wouldn’t you know it, that sequel is almost ready to be released. Several months ago, Activision announced Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Helmed by Infinity Ward, the studio that produced the original Modern Warfare series, this new game will bring the iconic title into the current generation of gaming....

Champion Hill, which can be played as 2v2 or 3v3, sees teams compete in tournament-style deathmatch rounds on a map split up into five sections, including a Buy Station Area at the center where players can upgrade their loadouts, buy Perks, new weapons and equipment, and more. But you’ll need to take out your enemies to earn the cash to be these goodies. The goal of the mode is to deplete every other team’s life count to zero and becpome the last squad standing....

Warzone‘s long-awaited Pacific update is finally here, which means that it’s time to take a look at which of the updates new guns are dominating the battle royale’s new map and new meta. While we’re used to seeing Warzone balance updates that change the game’s competitive dynamic, it’s not an exaggeration to say that the Pacific update essentially makes Warzone an entirely new game. There are a few weapons and strategies that remain as viable as ever, but the influx of new guns (as well as some major balance updates) means that you’re going to want to take some time to get the lay of the land before diving into Caldera....

The first trailer lays out the age-old American battle between artist and and capitalist, and Black talent and white entrepreneurial culture vulture. In the case of Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, it’s the struggle between real-life “Mother of the Blues” Ma Rainey, played by a bombastic Davis, and her manager. The film likewise follows Boseman in the role of Levee, an ambitious new trumpeter with an eye on Ma’s girlfriend and dreams of musical stardom that would change how the industry is perceived....

Criterion launched its streaming service last year as a way to offer a curated cross-section of its library of films online.

Coming 2 America finds Eddie Murphy’s Prince Akeem back in the fictional African kingdom of Zamunda, enjoying life with his love Lisa (Shari Headley) and three daughters. However, there’s trouble in paradise; the health of King Jaffe (James Earl Jones) is ailing and hostile General Izzi (Wesley Snipes) is threatening to attack, knowing that Akeem has no male heir behind him. Loyal advisor Semmi (Arsenio Hall) then breaks the news that Akeem fathered a son, Lavelle Junson (Jermaine Fowler) during their first trip to Queens....

The film’s story follows the journey of a slave (Jamie Foxx) in the Old West and Antebellum South who trains under a German bounty hunter (Christoph Waltz) in an attempt to reunite with his wife, Broomhilda von Shaft (Kerry Washington). After it’s release, Django Unchained was acclaimed by critics and won numerous awards, including two Oscars. It also made $425.4 million at the global box office, and remains Tarantino’s highest-grossing film....

This deceptively knotty copsploitation flick finds scuzzy Vegas fixer Teddy Muretto (Frank Grillo) on the run after he flips on his high-profile clients. With professional hitman Bob Viddick (Gerard Butler) hot on his trail, Muretto decides that jail is his safest hideaway, so he sucker punches valiant police officer Valerie Young (Alexis Louder) to get locked up. Not to be outdone, Bob gets himself thrown into the same suburban slammer by posing as a drunk driver, and things really heat up once another kooky killer (Toby Huss) comes to the titular copshop....

The more incomprehensible and unsettling the real world gets, the more we welcome TV characters who make us feel safe. BBC One’s Cormoran Strike, a Cornish war veteran turned private investigator who operates out of a shabby Soho office, is reassurance personified. He’s a good man with sad eyes and a tragic past, the kind of TV detective you want to feed a shepherd’s pie and send away with a Tupperware full of leftovers....

It’s been a long time since that announcement. Several delays later, we’re still waiting to hear about a solid release date for this action-adventure game that boasts fully destructible environments and tons of explosions. Further Reading: Crackdown Creator No Longer Working on Crackdown 3 Here’s everything else we know: Crackdown 3 Release Date Crackdown 3 will arrive on Feb. 15, 2019. The game is coming to XBO and PC, and will be part of the Play Anywhere program, which allows players to buy one copy of the game for both Xbox One and Windows 10 play....

The people behind the new DuckTales are massive fans of Darkwing Dark. You can’t deny it after the recent big “crossover” episode aired on Disney, which finally brought Darkwing and his extended cast fully into the story of DuckTales. It featured a deeply compelling story about Darkwing, Gosalyn, and Launchpad, furthered DuckTales‘ current story arc, AND tons of references, big and small, to Darkwing and the Disney Afternoon. Putting together an episode like that is not easy so we had to sit down with DuckTales Co-Executive Producer Frank Angones and Executive Producer Matt Youngberg to discuss the genesis of the episode, how they adapted Darkwing’s tone to DuckTales, and what this all means for the future of the “Disney Afternoon Universe....

“I do have an opinion on something that your audience may find of interest, and it might piss some of them off,” said Garvin. “If you love a game, buy it at f-cking full price. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen gamers say ‘yeah, I got that on sale, I got it through PS Plus, whatever.” It’s an opinion that has indeed pissed many people off not only because it bizarrely insults those who played Days Gone but because it highlights several problems in the video game industry that some say help justify Garvin’s opinion at a time when we’re led to believe that increased access to games is in direct contrast to the act that’s still the lifeblood of the industry: buying a game at full price right away and in great numbers....

Like the Justice League itself, this small band dawned when Warner Brothers debuted an embarrassing superhero movie with bright colors and good guys rescuing those in need. Thanks to their never-ending battle for their way, their interests, and nothing else, Snyder fans convinced WB to bankroll the creation of a proper superhero movie, one that begins with five uninterrupted minutes of Superman’s death agony and ends with the good guys chopping off the head of their retreating enemy....

So it should be no surprise that the establishment of new heads of the DCEU has earned a range of responses from the internet. It’s long been known that new head of Warner Bros./Discovery David Zaslav has been looking for a Kevin Feige-type figure to guide the DCEU, and decisions such as shelving Batgirl have only raised the need for a strong hand at the wheel. But few expected Zaslav to choose James Gunn, director of the Guardians of the Galaxy MCU movies and of The Suicide Squad, and producer Peter Safran to get the job — least of all, people on the internet....

Look, up in the sky. It’s a bird! No, it’s a plane! No, it’s the social media cloud of millions of DC fans rejoicing because Superman is coming back to the big screen! Finally. Five years after Henry Cavill last donned the red and blue tights in the much maligned Justice League theatrical cut of 2017, and more than six since Superman got to be a marquee name (while sharing space with Batman), DC Comics’ Man of Tomorrow finally can look forward to a tomorrow on the big screen....

The franchise seemed to be settling into a groove by releasing movies only tangentially connected to each other (Shazam!, Birds of Prey) or not connected at all (Joker, The Batman). Recent developments have only complicated things, as new CEO David Zaslav suddenly canceled the nearly-completed Batgirl and left all other movie projects in question, save for Joker: Folie à Deux. However, it’s clear that not even Zaslav wants this chaos to continue for long....

Whenever I start a new season of Degrassi it’s like sitting down with an old friend. Catching up on all the embarrassing stories, working through the traumas, and toasting to the triumphs! There are a lot of triumphs to toast because Degrassi: Next Class season 3 brought their A game. Sure, seasons one and two were great but season three finally has enough groundwork to start really getting deeper with the characters....

Diablo 4 made a somewhat surprising appearance during the Xbox and Bethesda Showcase, but the most surprising thing about the latest Diablo 4 gameplay footage shared during that show may be the many ways that the game is shaping up to be weirdly similar to Diablo Immortal. Actually, one of the first things we see in the new Diablo 4 gameplay trailer is a look at Diablo 4‘s character creator/customizer: a feature that Diablo Immortal introduced to the series....

The behind-the-scenes difficulties that led to Eccleston’s exit from BBC One’s Doctor Who in 2005 are no secret, adding extra interest over the years to the regularly raised question of any potential return. Unlike his successor David Tennant, who returned alongside previous incumbent Tom Baker for 50th anniversary special The Day of the Doctor, Eccleston has not to date taken part in any multi-Doctor stories, anniversary celebrations or spin-offs. That makes this audio series a significant return for fans of the ninth Doctor....

If there’s one thing you can say about Flux, it’s that no two episodes have felt quite the same. For better or worse, each chapter has worked to establish its own tone and tempo, which has helped add to the sense of scale the story possesses. It also means members of the audience will appreciate some episodes more than others, depending on which flavour of Doctor Who they prefer. A selection box rather than a king-sized Toblerone, in other words....
