With that out of the way, let’s talk about which Nintendo console is actually the best. No, there’s no way to convince everyone that one Nintendo console is actually better than the rest, but we’re looking back at Nintendo’s history of both home and handheld console releases (minus some peripherals like the Game & Watch) to give a little love to your first Nintendo console (whatever it may have been) and also talk about the Virtual Boy....
First Kill tells the story of a forbidden romance between Legacy vampire Juliette and monster hunter Calliope. Adapted from the short story of the same name by author V.E. Schwab, the series introduces us to two opposing families, and explores both the world of Legacies and the world of hunters. The show gives us bits and pieces of mythology, with hints that there is much more yet to be revealed....
The sequel to 2018’s Halloween, the successful, acclaimed reboot and follow-up to John Carpenter’s original 1978 classic, is bringing back several legacy characters from that movie, with the teaser giving us our first quick glimpses of three of them. Take a look and see if you can spot them! At approximately :20 in the 36-second trailer, that is Nancy Stephens as Nurse Marion Chambers, who was Dr. Sam Loomis’ assistant in the original Carpenter film and played the role in Halloween II (1981) and Halloween H20 (1998)....
Developing video games is one big learning experience. Every new project is the product of the errors a company made in the past and what they hope to accomplish moving forward. That approach is clearly evident when viewing the evolution of FromSoftware’s Soulsborne games. Their quest to produce some of the most engrossing and challenging action/adventure titles on the market has led to them gradually refining some of the genre’s core concepts over the years....
This is a major casting coup for Gadot, who is peppering her career with a series of roles based on real life women who had a wondrous effect on the world—from Cleopatra to Gadot’s currently untitled Apple TV+ project about Hollywood glamour icon and World War II inventor, Hedy Lamarr. In fact, Apple, as well as Warner Bros., Universal, and Netflix, were in the bidding for the reteaming of Gadot and Jenkins on Cleopatra....
1.3 Hard Times As Neil Gaiman explained at the Good Omens London premiere, when he began turning his and Terry Pratchett’s 300-page novel into six TV episodes, he started by chopping the book into 50-page sections. So divided, he found that the third section would barely feature Crowley and Aziraphale – a grave mistake, anyone would agree – so he set aside half of that episode just for them. The result is a 30-minute long pre-credits sequence ranging from the Crucifixion to 1960s Soho, dipping in and out of their encounters through the centuries....
After all, gliding around Gotham City was a bit part of the Arkham games, while Gotham Knights seemingly asks you to rely on the Batcycle and your grappling hook as your only modes of transportation. Well, that’s not exactly the case, but you will need to work to unlock your “glide” ability in this game. To unlock gliding in Gotham Knights, you’ll need to first complete your current character’s Knighthood challenges....
According to store pages such as Steam and the Gotham Knights team’s Twitter account, Gotham Knights will launch on October 21. While that would give players a good 24-hour window of anticipation, the game’s Twitter page provides a much tighter ETA. The account states Gotham Knights will feature a staggered release window and launch in each region at the stroke of their respective midnight. The only exception is West Coast gamers; they get to start playing (or at least downloading) Gotham Knights at 9 pm on October 20....
With Spooky Season heading to a close, and Halloween right around the corner, you might be looking for more films that scratch this camp horror itch. If you’re looking for self-serious horror films, this isn’t the list for you. But if you’re looking for something that inspires laughter while you’re watching through the cracks in your fingers, something decidedly Barbarian-esque, check out these creepy classics below. An American Werewolf in London (1981) In her review of John Landis’ An American Werewolf in London, legendary New York Times film critic Janet Maslin described Landis’ film as “callow....
Halo Episode 2 Halo is starting to find its feet, although the attempt is still a little wobbly. Like a kid trying not to get torn apart in their first MJOLNIR test run. By balancing lore and human interest, “Unbound” ends up in a middle ground that solidifies emotional beats that have previously been read between the lines. “Unbound” dives into the Master Chief’s history right away. As a younger man, he watched his friend Soren-066 disappear into the night, abandoning the Spartan training that cost him his freedom and some of the use of his arm....
Harley Quinn Season 2 Episode 6 Over one and a half seasons, Harley Quinn has established itself as silly, satirical, and brilliantly crude. But with “All The Best Inmates Have Daddy Issues,” Harley Quinn reveals a softer side. Reimagining the classic Mad Love arc through the lens of Silence of the Lambs and some instantly recognizable Harley Quinn humor, we get to see Harley and Joker’s first meeting. Though there is, of course, a twist as it’s revealed that our anti-heroine met someone else on that fateful first day at Arkham: her closest friend and ally, Poison Ivy....
Marvel’s latest live-action series will be a Christmas show, and Clint Barton, a.k.a Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), is re-gifting his archery set to young hero Kate Bishop (Hailee Steinfeld). Clint still has the vision to hit a target, but his hearing may not be so great anymore. We can plainly see Hawkeye’s hearing aid, which could end up being the result of an injury suffered on the show. You can watch the trailer here: The trailer features one of the most rousing fast-waltz celebrations ever crooned....
While some of the cards in the Core Set are returning favorites from previous releases, it’s the brand-new and heavily modified cards that are catching everybody’s attention at the moment. These cards won’t just help form the foundation of Hearthstone‘s competitive meta in the coming years: they’ll offer entirely new strategies that could prove to be viable regardless of what other cards come and go through expansion rotations. There’s no shortage of noteworthy new Core Set cards, but here are some of the ones you’re definitely going to want to try for yourself....
In the sequel, Aloy ventures into the “Forbidden West,” what used to be the states west of Utah. Key elements in the trailer include are modern ruins overtaken by nature, low-tech human settlements, and futuristic animal robots. The lush greenery of Aloy’s world is also heavily on display here. The environmentalist story threaded remarkably well through the first game’s world-building comes to the fore again with a mysterious threat targeting animal life....
At the official Game of Thrones fan convention hosted in LA this weekend, House of the Dragon showrunner Ryan Condal showed a deleted scene from the season 1 finale that showed a brief, but emotional conversation between Princess Rhaenys Targaryen (Eve Best) and her granddaughter Lady Baela Targaryen (Bethany Antonia). This scene, which you can watch below, showcases an important element that this season of House of the Dragon is missing: more one-on-one moments between its female characters....
The Targaryens are a family comprised of secrets within secrets, and mysteries within mysteries. Despite building the greatest dynasty Westeros ever knew, and ruling from on high atop dragons for centuries, the practices and rituals of Daenerys Targaryen’s ancestors remain elusive. When she was introduced along with her brother in Game of Thrones, neither character was old enough to have been trained in the customs of their House before the dynasty fell....
It’s no surprise that the sequel to Avatar is going to have mind-blowing visuals, but when the script for Avatar: The Way of Water was complete, even the movie’s producer had doubts about their ability to film it. “When we first started developing the script, we really tried to do it without thinking about the ‘how,’ right?” says Jon Landau, the producer of Avatar and its sequels, in an interview with Den of Geek magazine....
“I thought: ‘they want to make monsters for Black Mirror? I don’t get it,’” Walker says. Through two seasons and six episodes on Channel 4, the monsters of Black Mirror were largely metaphorical and unseen, signals and dispatches from mobile devices in a dubiously fictional world. Then the show was picked up by Netflix, which quickly commissioned a six-episode third season. Among those six episodes was “Playtest,” an hour starring Wyatt Russell (Lodge 49), Wunmi Mosaku (Lovecraft Country), and Hannah John-Kamen (Ant-Man and the Wasp)....
It may not have garnered the accolades of his soundtracks for The Mission or Cinema Paradiso, but the Italian’s heart-stopping synth-led score remains iconic, not least for the fact it was unlike anything he had produced before or since. Up until then, Carpenter had scored the music for all of his films, earning plaudits for his pioneering use of synthesizers – something he insisted was born out of practicality as it allowed his soundtracks to “sound big with just a keyboard”....
Spy Racers, the animated spin-off to Fast & Furious, is no exception to this. The show has often delved into its own over-the-top action and in the show’s third season, available now on Netflix, the show takes this action to another level. In in the fourth episode, ‘The Hunt’ the entire story is just one long action filled car chase. Not only that, it’s an action scene that’s a clear Mad Max send up....
