Obi-Wan Kenobi continues to pull on the heartstrings when it comes to the Jedi Master’s relationship with his former apprentice. Brought together by Qui-Gon and growing up as brothers-in-arms, their connection informs everything Darth Vader has become since his fall to the dark side. More is revealed about both Vader in “Part 5”, and we also learn more about Reva’s motivations as well as what her connection is to Kenobi....

Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi Episode 6 Obi-Wan Kenobi is perhaps a dish best served in small portions. After five episodes full of cutting confrontations, episode six feels repetitive and contrived. Characters clash because they need to, when they need to. Glimmers of chemistry, and Star Wars tropes that come off as endearing rather than weak links, crop up here and there. But overall, the final adventure for Leia and Obi-Wan fails to tie the series together because it’s too busy trying to tie all of the franchise together....

The Book of Boba Fett‘s climactic war against the Pykes grows ever nearer, but first it’s time for a reunion with some old friends. In fact, Din Djarin encounters much of his supporting cast from The Mandalorian in “From the Desert Comes a Stranger,” while on his quest to deliver a gift to Grogu. Meanwhile, Cobb Vanth is back and trying to uphold the law in Tatooine’s small towns in his own way....

In “The Rescue,” one major cameo takes The Mandalorian season 2 finale home. Din and his friends have discovered where Moff Gideon has taken Grogu, and it doesn’t take them long to launch an attack on his flagship. Once there, the finale delivers on all the blasting, darksaber fights, and surprise cameos you could want, playing coy only with Grogu himself. “The Rescue,” directed by Peyton Reed and written by showrunner Jon Favreau, has a couple major Star Wars connections and not as many little Easter eggs....

The Book of Boba Fett has now delivered its final episode on Disney+ and its story – a mashup of Fett flashbacks, Tatooine politics, and between-season Mando adventures – has polarized Star Wars fans, many of whom wished it would simply concentrate on just one of its chosen narratives throughout its run. In its season finale, The Book of Boba Fett gathered together all its major post-RoTJ players, including Fett, Fennec Shand, Mando, Grogu, Peli Motto, Black Krrsantan, Cad Bane, the mod biker gang, and Chekhov’s Rancor, for a showdown on Tatooine that would establish Fett’s dominance in Mos Espa against the fearsome Pyke Syndicate, who were out to steal Jabba the Hutt’s old territory from the retired bounty hunter so they could easily trade spice on the desert planet....

Y’see, while the comic book industry exploded in the wake of Superman’s debut in Action Comics #1 in 1938, and the superhero arms race was on with dozens of publishers competing for seemingly endless space on the newsstands, characters weren’t teaming up with each other. Superman, Batman, and others were published by National Periodical Publications while the original Flash (Jay Garrick) and Green Lantern (Alan Scott) were under the auspices of All-American Publications (which was soon absorbed by NPP, who later morphed into DC Comics), but there were no crossovers, no “event” stories, and certainly no superhero teams....

In Stranger Things season three, the Mind Flayer remote-controlled Billy Hargrove to build a fearsome creature out of dead rats and kidnapped townsfolk. It melted them all down like old wax crayons and stirred them into one big, gloopy monster. Then Joyce and Hopper closed the new gate to the Upside Down and, deprived of the psychic connection to its puppet master in the other realm, the creature died. In season four, the big bad is Vecna, a telekinetic ex-human in the Upside Down with the power to immobilise victims in our world by projecting hallucinations into their minds before killing them....

That seemed to be all Capcom planned to announce last week but then a massive online leak spoiled the rest of the roster. Art for 22 characters found its way to the internet just hours after the title’s first official gameplay trailer dropped. Leaked footage also showed Ken in-game and a clip of Cammy (clad in her classic unitard) performing her Ultra attack against another Cammy (clad in her new costume)....

But now with Gunn as both writer and director, The Suicide Squad will likely be a very different film. Gunn has said on social media that he hopes to deliver something more along the lines of the late ’80s action movie with superpowers that the classic Jon Ostrander Suicide Squad comics were. Here’s everything else you need to know about the movie: Suicide Squad 2 Trailer It’s not QUITE a trailer, but this sizzle reel that was unveiled at DC Fandome does contain plenty of footage, as well as a look at virtually the entire cast, as well as some behind the scenes action....

That being said, you should know that Keighley has already stated that you should expect this year’s Summer Game Fest show to primarily focus on previously revealed titles. While the phrase “previously revealed titles” covers a lot of ground (more on that in a bit), it still sounds like there may be fewer world-first reveals at Summer Game Fest 2022 than we’ve seen at Keighley-hosted events in the past....

Originally released on the Wii U in 2013, Super Mario 3D World hasn’t lost any of its charm in the eight years since. This may sound surprising considering that all Nintendo fans seemed hungry for back then was the next proper evolution of 3D Mario platforming. We of course eventually got this with Super Mario Odyssey, but the truth is that Super Mario 3D World never promised to be that kind of leap forward....

Synchronic is the fourth feature film from the writing-directing (and sometimes acting) team of Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benso. Their previous independent efforts–Resolution (2012), Spring (2014) and The Endless (2017)–were all hybrids in one way or another of sci-fi and horror, leaning more toward one or the other, depending on the story that was at hand. Synchronic extends the duo’s ambitions in terms of the scope of the story, its genre (still decidedly science fiction with horror overtones), and its casting....

With successful series like V/H/S and The ABCs of Death putting out a new entry nearly every year, and recent contenders like Tales of Halloween and Holidays jumping into the fray, it can become easy to get overwhelmed and drown in all of the horror anthology goodness. Thankfully, we’ve put together a life preserver (a 31-chambered one) to keep you afloat and direct you to the very best bite-sized doses of horror that film has to offer!...

Essie Davis stars as Amelia, a widowed mother still grief-stricken over the death of her husband six years earlier in a car crash. The accident happened while he was driving Amelia to the hospital to give birth to their son Samuel – which inextricably links the two in Amelia’s mind and keeps her from loving him as unconditionally as a parent would. It doesn’t help that Samuel (Noah Wiseman) is high-energy and often seems “out of control,” with a constant fear of monsters that has him scurrying into his mother’s bed every night....

From snow-plow sins to gingerbread gunfights to the only song about light bulbs you’ll ever need, there are few shows that capture the highs and lows of the holiday season quite as well as Bob’s Burgers. In anticipation of season 13’s upcoming “The Plight Before Christmas,” let’s take a look back at the ten festively frosty installments so far, ranked by how well they capture the Yuletide spirit. 10. Season 9 Episode 10: Better Off Sled An unprecedented snowfall means an unprecedented sledding opportunity for Louise (Kristen Schaal), Gene (Eugene Mirman), Tina (Dan Mintz), and their friends – but Louise’s archrival Logan (Kurt Braunohler) has other plans....

Jefferson Pierce is not dead, but he’s buried alive, and still without his powers. As he prays for his family and his city to be protected—and reflects on his own heaven- worthiness— his family pushes back against Tobias. Gambi, Anissa, and Grace infiltrate Tobias’ heavily secured building and destroy the emitter. In the coffin, Jefferson talks to his father in an ancestral plane, a life/death spiritual in-between, and he is able to get closure about his father’s death and be affirmed as a hero by the very person he modeled his heroism after....

We can’t clarify this enough: When the age of Marvel Comics superheroes began in the 1960s, everything changed. Characters like the members of the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, the X-Men, and on and on felt more grounded in reality than their comic book peers, and readers immediately took notice. These were relatable figures who balanced real world problems like wanting to fit in with the pressures that come with protecting New York City (then later, the universe) from all manner of unbelievable threats....

Not many shows get a second chance at a finale. But then again, not many shows’ first finales are as bad as Dexter’s was. After the original Dexter series finale back in 2013 was received, let’s say, less than warmly, Showtime decided to try it again. Following a seven year cool-off period, the network invited original showrunner Clyde Phillips back to envision a new end for Bay Harbor Butcher in the limited series Dexter: New Blood....
