From the very start, no one knew where this show was going to go. The original Spanish TV series La Casa de Papel (The House of Paper) would have disappeared into obscurity when it was cancelled had not Netflix picked it up. But there, the gang stole the hearts of the world, was one of Netflix’s most popular foreign language titles, and became an international symbol for resistance movements. Tokyo (Úrsula Corberó) said it best in her ultimate narration, “When this story began, nobody could’ve imagined…” The final fifth season was broken into two parts over 2021....

As much as I love Morrowind (it’s one of the best RPGs ever made), it’s kind of hard to ignore that the game was held together by digital spit and strings even in its day and feels even older now. Purists will balk, but the fact of the matter is that Morrowind is a truly great game that benefits from a little bit of help in 2022. That being the case, I’ve decided to mostly focus on Morrowind mods that improve or upgrade the original experience in some way rather than completely reimagine it....

Mr. Robot Season 3 Episode 5 There’s a moment partway through Mr. Robot’s season 3’s thrilling fifth episode that is undeniably cathartic. A crowd of protestors is gathered around Evil Corp’s Midtown headquarters, protesting….well, everything. Protesting Evil Corp’s role in the financial crash, protesting the U.N. Security Council’s upcoming vote to annex the Congo to China (which passes), protesting because it just feels good to yell when unemployment is at 26% and the world is going to shit all around you....

My Hero Academia Season 5 Episode 15 “In…case…of failure…more…manpower.” My Hero Academia makes the heroes of its universe its priority, but right from the anime’s earliest moments it’s also been fascinated with the natural conflict and resentment that exists between the heroes and the villains that threaten society. The League of Villains and other malevolent organizations have always lurked in the shadows, so whenever these enemies are absent for a lengthy span of time there’s probable cause to worry that an attack is right around the corner....

Bosses Bela Bajaria and Ted Sarandos defended their cancellation rate at the Paley International Council Summit, saying that Netflix renews around 67% of its series, and that its cancellations were viewed “disproportionately”. “If you look at season twos and more, we actually have a renewal rate of 67%, which is industry standard,” Bajaria said (via Deadline). “We also do make a large amount of first season shows, which sometimes feels that we have more first season cancellations but if you look at the renewal rate it’s really strong....

Meet Joe Goldberg. He’s a good guy who wants to keep you safe. Because Joe loves you and will save you. He’ll save you from your terrible friends and your terrible exes and your terrible self and from this whole terrible world. Granted, he’ll do it with a hammer, a glass murder tank, and a shallow grave, but that’s not the real him. He’s just a romantic who does what he does out of love....

The song, which is streaming online now, will be part of the soundtrack to David Gordon Green’s Halloween Kills, the second instalment in the new Halloween trilogy that opens in theaters on Oct. 15. Sacred Bones Records will release the album Halloween Kills OST, the same day. Carpenter chilling compositions have always been a vital part of the Halloween experience. The theme to the original 1978 horror masterpiece is as much a horror classic as the film itself....

Netflix has been quietly expanding their anime offerings for awhile now but June is a particularly anime-heavy month. The absolutely metal sounding Record of Ragnarok arrives this month. So too do parts 1 and 2 of the newest Sailor Moon film on June 3 and Godzilla Singular Point on June 24. But for those who aren’t ready to dip their toe in the anime pool yet, Netflix has some other originals of note in June....

The true-crime-a-palooza begins on Nov. 2 with the release of Killer Sally. That will be followed by docuseries like Pepsi, Where’s My Jet on Nov. 17 and documentaries like State of Alabama vs. Brittany Smith on Nov. 10 and I Am Vanessa Guillen on Nov. 17. Of course, Netflix’s Original department is turning out some heavy hitting scripted series as well. The long-awaited Manifest season 4 part 1 arrives on Nov....

Much of this information comes from Press Start who initially reported that Sony intends to release a new version of the PS5 Digital Edition that is slightly lighter than the “launch” version of the console and features a new screw that makes it possible to remove and attach the console’s base stand without a screwdriver. Well, fans have recently confirmed that those new PS5 Digital Edition models are indeed already on sale in Australia (and possibly elsewhere)....

To be entirely honest, everything in the recent history of video game-related technology suggests that it’s going to be very difficult to secure an RTX 3050 at launch or at any point in the near future. Between the rise in bot accounts designed to circumvent preventive measures and buy new pieces of tech in large quantities and recent global shortages of necessary hardware components, it’s more difficult than ever to buy pretty much any new technology out of the gate for a reasonable retail price....

When we first meet In the Shadow of Lightning protagonist Demir Grappo, he is on the cusp of his first major military victory. As a magic-wielding leader and a member of one of Ossa’s ruling guild-families, young Demir has a bright future ahead of him. But when a miscommunication on the battlefield leads to the horrific sacking of a city, Demir flees his power and privilege to become a drifter with no greater responsibilities....

The Pogues are an island unto themselves in the season two finale of Outer Banks. And in case you thought the treasure hunt was over, the gang stumbles into another mystery while they work to prove John B’s innocence in the murder of Sheriff Peterkin. Outer Banks’ sophomore season follows John B and Sarah, who after escaping the OBX in a storm following accusation that John B killed a cop, find themselves wanted in Nassau....

The movie is buoyed by its talented young cast (who we’ve spoken to in groups in the leadup to the film’s release), but the story really centers on Jovan Adepo’s Boyce and Mathilde Ollivier’s Chloe, two unlikely heroes in the face of an even more unlikely adventure. Here’s what they told us about Overlord‘s fun blend of genres. Den of Geek: I was pleasantly surprised to find this to be more of a World War II movie with just a little twinge of monster movie in there....

Walt Disney’s original Pinocchio was only the second feature-length film made by his animation house after Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs from three years earlier. Pinocchio is also where the Walt Disney Company got its unofficial theme song, “When You Wish Upon a Star.” To this day, you usually hear an orchestral version of the tune every time you see a new Disney movie that gets the banner logo title card at the beginning....

Well, it seems that Sony was also quite surprised by Customize My Plates’ announcement as they’ve exerted some legal pressure on the company which not only forced them to change their domain name but cancel all the pre-orders they’ve received so far. In statements released via their website, Twitter account, and to outlets like IGN, the Customize my Plates team explains that “a certain console provider’s lawyer recently ‘suggested’ a few changes to our website” and that the decision to cancel all PS5 faceplate pre-orders was based on information they received from Sony’s legal team regarding the trademark and copyright laws associated with their products....

In fact, there’s at least one company (PlateStation) that is already offering a few custom PS5 faceplate designs that you pre-order ahead of the console’s November 12 release date. Now, we should point out that Sony has not released an official guide for swapping your PS5’s faceplate and that PlateStation is not officially associated with Sony. Until official information (or even official PS5 faceplates) are available, we recommend that you proceed with caution in regards to any custom PS5 faceplate purchases....

Partway into the game, the NPC Asabei in Jubilife Village gives players the request “An Elegant Tail.” At first glance, the mission seems straightforward: Show him a Pokémon with a tail that is “elegant and swirly like a spring.” The only problem is Asabei didn’t get a good look at the creature. He doesn’t even remember where he saw it, just that it had a unique tail. At least the request “The Search of Bitter Leaves” tells players they can find its target Pokémon (a Petilil described as a plant with “three leaves”) in the Crimson Mirelands....

In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, players wander the verdant land of Hisui, before it became Sinnoh and before Pokémon were ingrained into the culture. The Pokedex doesn’t exist yet; the villainous Team Galactic is known as the altruistic Galaxy Expedition Team, and Poke Balls are handcrafted out of fruits known as Apricorns instead of mass produced. The entire game looks like something out of Japan’s Industrial Revolution, and yet players can use a smartphone known as the Arc Phone....

Poldark Season 5 Episode 6 There we are then. Ned’s dead, baby, Ned’s dead. Those of us with poor impulse control and access to Wikipedia knew it was coming, which flattened the effect of the courtroom and escape scenes rather. However hard Ross shook his curls to protest Despard’s innocence, if you knew this story ended on the gallows then it went there with foot-dragging inevitability. There were highlights. The Wile E Coyote-style plot for which Ned was framed (turning a ceremonial cannon on the King!...
