Not quite the household name that the other members of the cast are counted as, Cline delivers what appears to be a star-making performance in a role that showcases her comedic chops. Whiskey is the Twitch-managing assistant and girlfriend to Bautista’s men’s rights activist, Duke Cody. And Whiskey seems to be going along with Duke’s schtick in the hopes to leverage it into her own internet fame. She also has her own special relationship with Edward Norton’s Miles Bron, the billionaire at the center of Glass Onion’s story....

The streaming giant today announced that it has canceled its two remaining Jenji Kohan-produced shows: GLOW and Teenage Bounty Hunters, according to Deadline. The latter’s cancellation comes after just one season and the former’s cancellation arrives despite the show previously being confirmed for a fourth and final season. In the case of GLOW, the cancellation comes due to the coronavirus-related shutdowns and the difficulty of producing a highly physical show based on professional wrestling....

Hacksilver, as the name suggests, are pieces of silver that had been hacked up and used as currency among the real world’s ancient Norse and Viking tribes. Quite fittingly, Hacksilver serves the same purpose in the God of War soft reboot and, most recently, God of War Ragnarok. Most transactions with the game’s resident blacksmiths Brok and Sindri involve Hacksilver. Want to upgrade armor and weapon pommels? You need Hacksilver in addition to specific upgrade materials....

In God of War and God of War Ragnarok, players can collect items called Runic Attacks and slot them into weapons. Each rune lets Kratos use a powerful elemental ability that can stun enemies, deal heavy damage, and control the battlefield. Runic Attacks can potentially change the tide of battle, and while they don’t rely on mana, they are balanced out by lengthy cooldowns. Plus, players need to find these attacks before they can use them....

It may not have quite the cache or iconic status of Mothra or King Ghidorah, but Mechagodzilla has managed to become a consistent element in the Godzilla movie universe for years. And now the metallic wonder makes its Hollywood debut (not counting Ready Player One) in director Adam Wingard’s Godzilla vs. Kong, the fourth film in the modern MonsterVerse that kicked off in 2014 with Gareth Edwards’ Godzilla. Ever since making its first appearance in 1974’s Godzilla vs....

1.4 Saturday Morning Funtime It’s one thing to write a yellow toad-faced alien emerging from a flying saucer to chastise a passing witchfinder for his species’ poor planetary husbandry. Writing it only requires a keyboard and an imagination. Having a yellow toad-faced alien emerging from a flying saucer to chastise a passing witchfinder appear on screen takes a great deal else – a keyboard, an imagination and the wherewithal to convince the money people backing this adaptation that no weird idea should be left behind....

The trailer for Netflix documentary Bob Ross: Happy Accidents, Betrayal & Greed doesn’t say much but still promises a lot. Only a little over 30 second long, the teaser clip features creepy chimes, telltale black and white true crime imagery, and the provocative text: “We want to show you the trailer for Bob Ross: Happy Accidents, Betrayal & Greed but we can’t. Find out why on August 25.” Wow! Netflix, arguably the most powerful media entity on the planet, is so spooked at the raw truth of a Bob Ross documentary that it’s hesitant to even share it with the public....

“Over the last few weeks, a number of different marketing promotions have started popping up around the world with partners offering a variety of in-game customization offers for Halo Infinite,” says community manager John Junyszek. “Admittedly, product promotions weren’t how we originally envisioned sharing the first look at some of these customization elements. In our last Community Update, we offered a closer look at the ‘Monarch’ armor coating – a special award being offered by Mondelez (US & CA), and before that, we shared a closer look at the Monster Energy weapon coatings in this Xbox Wire blog....

Harley Quinn Season 2 Episode 11 …And he’s back. Yep, after nearly a whole season with the Joker out of commission, Harley Quinn has resurrected the Clown Prince of Crime and put him in a position of true vulnerability. Now, thanks to Harley’s quick thinking and a deadly bomb in his brain, he has to help save the day. With the Fourth World’s Parademons flying around the skies of Gotham and chomping on delectable citizen flesh, Harley and the Joker are doing their best to try and find the Book of Fables which contains the trapped Justice League....

HBO’s TV adaptation of beloved video game The Last of Us premieres on Jan. 15. Created by Chernobyl writer Craig Mazin, this story will follow the game storyline of Joel (Pedro Pascal) guiding 14-year-old Ellie (Bella Ramsey) through a virus-ridden wasteland towards hope. It’s probably gonna be awesome. The other big original series this month is animated mystery comedy Velma. Brought to life by Mindy Kaling, this show will be all about Scooby-Doo’s bespectacled buddy Velma Dinkley....

In this age of an increasingly fractured viewing audience, it’s unlikely that a TV show will reach the heights of Game of Thrones, but HBO does seem to be intentionally courting the same fantasy-loving audience with His Dark Materials. So far, it doesn’t seem to be working, and there are many, many differences between the two series that could explain U.S. viewers’ hesitance to tune into the Philip Pullman adaptation....

“I think there’s a bit of confusion as to which box to put it in,” says Weekes. His House is the story of two Sudanese refugees (Wunmi Mosaku and Sope Dirisu) who make it to Britain and are put up in a house but given an endless set of restrictions (“no ball games, no balls, no games” says Matt Smith’s council worker, reading from an impossibly long list) and told they mustn’t work and can’t live anywhere else....

House of the Dragon Episode 10 The world is old and it isn’t getting any younger. Every moment that passes, a little bit more of the historical narrative slips away into the ether, only to be replaced with a new hero, a new slight, a new disagreement, a new love, a new war. And the stuff that’s “lost” to history isn’t really lost at all. Even the forgotten moments of the past are oftentimes encoded into our very DNA or just melt into the collective unconscious....

Murphy has fielded a successful career in film and television—notably starring on crime series Peaky Blinders—following his performance as Crane/Scarecrow in Batman Begins, which also included memorably madcap cameo reprisals in 2008’s The Dark Knight and 2012’s The Dark Knight Rises. While he’s currently promoting a prominent part in John Krasinski’s impending horror sequel, A Quiet Place II, the topic of Murphy’s tenure in Nolan’s trilogy-launcher was raised in an interview with THR, in which he reminisced on being a finalist for the role of Bruce Wayne/Batman before he went the antagonist route....

While we already know various tidbits about Lucas’s original plans for the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy, some major new info has dropped in The Star Wars Archives 1999–2005 by Paul Duncan, a 600-page behind-the-scenes tome in which Lucas himself lifts the veil on crucial plot details for his never-realized plans to complete his vision of the franchise. The biggest revelation in the book, via Polygon, is that Darth Maul was destined to not only return in Lucas’s Sequel Trilogy but serve as the overall big bad....

Horror movies make lycanthropes out to be lunatics, but only during certain moments of the lunar cycle. Why does the wolfman have to wait for a full moon to change though? There are werewolves reading this who are hungry now. Even A-list actors like Jack Nicholson, Michael J. Fox, Benicio del Toro, James Spader, and Taylor Lautner have to make monthly reservations to dine on the innocent in their hairiest roles....

It’s a unique scenario that is especially suited to Neeson’s talents as a latter-era action hero, with the Irish actor bringing the same vulnerability and everyman sensibility to the role that makes all his action-movie roles relatable to audiences. The actor’s approach to his work also extends to embracing the realism of the film itself, which writer/director Jonathan Hensleigh shot on actual ice roads covering the surface of the vast Lake Winnipeg in Manitoba, Canada, using full-sized Kenworth 18-wheelers....

It wasn’t always that way, though. There was a time when the fates of Medal of Honor and Saving Private Ryan seemed destined to be forever intertwined. After all, Medal of Honor was essentially pitched as the game that would do to WW2 games what Saving Private Ryan did for WW2 films. That never quite happened, but the ways that the fates of those two projects began, diverged, met, and ultimately split helped shape the future of gaming in ways you may may not know about....

Set in 2002, the movie follows Torontonian teen Meilin Lee (Rosalie Chiang). She loves her mom, Ming (Sandra Oh), and wants nothing more than to live up to her expectations. But she’s going through a lot of big changes that threaten to throw her off of her life’s course. Namely, a curse that transforms her into a red panda whenever she has an emotional outburst. “I was Mei in the early 2000s Toronto....

Young Justice Season 4 Episode 7 Getting off of Mars was the best thing to happen to Young Justice: Phantoms, and even though it returns there this week, the parallel structure of the episode combined with the show taking on a HUGE story from the comics and making some pretty significant improvements to it, even if it doesn’t quite land in the end. Plot-wise, not a ton happens this week. Miss Martian, her sister, and J’onn head back to Earth after M’gann cracks her brother’s skull a little and finds out he didn’t know the gene bomb was laced with kryptonite....
