Let’s face it: gaming laptops can be pricey, which is why it’s good to do your research before buying one. It’s important to take stock of the specs you’ll need to play the latest games as well as the components that make those specs possible. One of the best things about MSI is the myriad choices they offer to gamers looking to buy a new portable. But with several laptops across four different series — GE, GS, GL, and GF — picking the right one for you might seem daunting....

The KOTOR franchise currently consists of three titles: Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords, and The Old Republic. But the third entry, despite existing within the same continuity, is not a sequel to the first two single-player RPGs. Instead, it’s an MMORPG side story that takes place 300 years after the first two games. A proper sequel to the first two games has existed in a state of development hell limbo for almost 20 years, pitched around and canceled at different studios, only to be revived again several years later and subsequently canned again....

The character of Wonder Woman was created by Dr. William Moulton Marston in 1941. A psychologist with an eclectic career, Marston went from inventing the lie detector test while still an undergraduate at Harvard in 1914 to being essentially blacklisted from academia by the age of 33. But of course his most enduring legacy came afterward; it came when he engineered a superheroine intentionally designed to be a great role model for girls and boys....

At the forefront of the upgrade is the new Start Menu, which is now sitting at the center of the taskbar. The new Start Menu forgoes the tiles that have been a signature of the Windows experience for the past few generations of the OS. Windows 11 will instead feature a Start Menu that works like a more traditional launcher where you can quickly access your go-to apps, recent files, and the revamped Windows Store, which is now compatible with Android apps....

Luckily, even at its most cliché, Without Remorse does have a lot going for it whenever Jordan gets unleashed by the script. As a one-man army, the actor is relentless in his desire to win over his audience with shock and awe. More often than not he succeeds. Opening on a clandestine Navy SEALs operation in Syria, Without Remorse features the same no-frills violence that made director Stefano Sollima’s previous collaboration with screenwriter Taylor Sheridan—Sicario: Day of the Soldado—a guilty pleasure....

In Wonder Woman 1984 an ancient artifact forged by a god wreaks havoc in the consumerist 1980s by granting those who touch it one wish. Magical wishing objects are rife in storytelling, so much so that kids in playgrounds across the world already know what the correct answer is when you are given just one wish. And no, it’s not $1 million or world peace. It’s an infinite number of wishes....

The chances of that happening briefly flared up in late September when the studio behind the 007 franchise, MGM, put out feelers to Apple, Netflix, and other streaming services about picking up the 25th official entry in the series and the final one to star Daniel Craig. According to multiple reports last weekend in the Hollywood trades (after Bloomberg initially broke the story), MGM was looking for a deal in which the streamer would license the movie for one year for $600-700 million (with rights to stream the rest of the Bond catalog possibly included in the deal as well)....

On August the 29th 1992 the WWF came to Wembley Stadium for its annual SummerSlam. It was the first time the organisation had strayed outside the States for an event of this scale, and the reason was purely financial: Vince McMahon and his backers realised that while enthusiasm for the sport was waning – or at least plateauing – in the US, fans in the UK were in the fevered grip of Wrestlemania, Hulkamania, and – perhaps most crucially of all – Gladly-Spend-Thirty-Pounds-on-a-Giant-Foam-Finger-amania....

There’s just one question newer readers may be wondering… What the Heck Is the Siege Perilous? Originally appearing as part of a Captain Britain (Brian Braddock back then, Betsy’s brother) story in Mighty World of Marvel #13, the Portal Perilous, as it was known in that appearance, was a large portal to alternate Earths, through which the body of Merlyn was consigned (like many characters, he died, then got better) by Roma....

Audiences have made Yellowstone’s Dutton clan television royalty for a reason. For 150 years within their fictional Montana kingdom, the Duttons have fought for their family and their legacy – and they fight hard. The way they play the game may have changed over that century and a half – trading guns for law degrees, or governorships – but their family motto remains the same throughout the generations. They will win at any cost....

Young Justice Season 3 Episode 9 Early on in Young Justice: Outsiders‘ return, it was pretty clear that the creators of the show hadn’t missed a step since they left six years ago. That wasn’t an entirely accurate observation, though. In the intervening half-decade, they actually got substantially better at making superhero tv shows, and when you think about how good the show was when they left off, that’s incredible. This latest episode is the proof....

The influence of the legendary Jack Kirby permeates almost every single aspect of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But despite creating an impressive corner of the DC Comics cosmic mythology in the 1970s, his Fourth World and New Gods concepts have yet to be properly represented in live action. That, of course, changed with 2017’s Justice League movie, which saw the introduction of Steppenwolf, as well as other concepts from the Fourth World mythos such as Mother Boxes and Darkseid....

News of the development was broken late Wednesday by Deadline, who reported the streaming service is closing a deal with Johnson and his producing partner Ram Bergman to release two Knives Out sequels. Each will see Daniel Craig return as Benoit Blanc, the Last of the Gentleman Sleuths. This is significant for Netflix, but also another sign of the changing winds in the movie industry. When Knives Out released in 2021, first as a surprise sensation on the film festival circuit at Toronto and Fantastic Fest and then in wide release over Thanksgiving weekend in the U....

They say that in space, no one can hear you scream. For those who’ve watched Ridley Scott’s Alien, you’ll know that isn’t the case – with this sci-fi staple “screaming” about its legacy for the past 43 years. Making a household name of Sigourney Weaver as Lt. Ellen Ripley, Alien is tightly held as one of the all-time horror greats. Although the franchise has since spun off into sequels, prequels, and those maligned Alien Vs Predator crossovers, it all returns to the USCSS Nostromo and its doomed crew....

2023 is going to be another big year for TV with Marvel and Star Wars projects aplenty. From the return of Loki, What If?, and The Mandalorian to new series like Echo, Secret Invasion, and Ahsoka, Disney+ is likely going to continue its reign of popularity. We also have the long-awaited return of Teen Wolf (in movie form) on Paramount+, HBO’s The Last of Us adaptation, Henry Cavill’s final season as Geralt of Rivia in The Witcher, and so much more to look forward to....

The spinoff experiment was a successful one and now 9-1-1: Lone Star season 2 is set to arrive one year later. Perhaps there’s never been a better time for two simultaneously running shows about 911 first responders. Given the coronavirus pandemic and the general mounting crises of life in the U.S. over the past year, viewers may come to further appreciate shows about professionals during their best work under unimaginable circumstances....

Back when NASA was in nappies and buzz was more famous as a type of saw, the brave cowboys and pioneers of the old west were the undisputed champions of popular culture. Even though the west ceased to be wild circa 1900, westerns dominated books, magazines, and screens both big and small from the 1930s right through to the early 1970s, after which the genre – give or take a few Deadwoods, Westworlds, and De Loreans – fell into decline....

“This is an opportunity to make that right, but that’s not why we’re doing it,” Phillips informed THR on its Top 5 podcast via NME. “We’re doing this because there is such a hunger for Dexter out there. We’re not undoing anything. We’re not going to betray the audience and say, ‘Whoops, that was all a dream.’ What happened in the first eight years happened in the first eight years....

But when an actor or actress leaves early? Or, in the words of headlines, ‘storms out early’? That’s a story! They rage! They ‘abruptly exit’. They crash out of the room! Yet do they? We’ve gone back over modern cases of acting talent bringing an interview to a premature close, and questioned whether, beneath the headlines, they may have had a case… RUSSELL CROWE What was he promoting? Who was he being interviewed by?...

Altered Carbon Episode 10 It’s a shame that a series that took the seemingly un-adaptable Altered Carbon and brought the cyberpunk vision so beautifully to life ended with so many clichés and a drawn out conclusion. Although the open-ended nature of Kovacs’ next quest and Ortega’s impending reunion with Riker was a nice touch for those wanting to draw their own conclusions (or those hoping for a season two), the pat ending for the Elliots was only halfway satisfying, and the comeuppance for the Bancrofts deserves a golf clap at best....
