No, it’s not that Zod is secretly Lemongrab. Although that’d be awesome.
By all accounts, one of the bad ideas from the bleak early 2000s attempts to revive Superman has actually made it into the upcoming Man of Steel. But is it such a bad idea? Possible spoilers will follow. Read the rest of this entry »
You know, there’s really been something missing from the reboot of the Star Trek series: song and dance. Why J. J. Abrams didn’t consider turning the series into a musical is beyond me. Luckily, the internet imagined what a middle school production of Star Trek would look like. And based on the music alone, it’s something that needs to become a standard in schools across America, like, stat!
Last summer Michael Fassbender signed with Ubisoft to star in and co-produce an Assassin’s Creed movie with sequels in mind. Ubisoft wanted Fassbender to play Altair, and they quickly penned a deal with New Regency to finance the film and distribute through 20th Century Fox. Now a release date for this Assassin’s Creed movie has been announced: May 22nd, 2015. That’s Memorial Day weekend.
The next Xbox rolls out tomorrow. There’s been a lot of rumor surrounding this box, and tomorrow we learn what was true and what was thankfully left on the cutting room floor. Here are the odds of what we’re going to see. Read the rest of this entry »
Bryan Singer has been tweeting several pictures of castmembers in X-Men: Days of Future Past such as the picture above of Peter Dinklage. He’s starring as “the main antagonist” who hasn’t been named yet but we have our theories. We referenced these tweets when we posted some extra casual pictures of Hugh Jackman on set of X-Men: Days Of Future Past, but we haven’t collected these tweeted photos in one place. It’s time to rectify that.
Keeping track video game releases isn’t as easy as it once was — the volume of games released each week is constantly expanding, and they’re spread over a mind-boggling array of platforms (consoles, PC, Mac, handhelds and mobile).
Well, I’m here to make things a little easier on you. Every week I’ll rattle off five games I think you should check out. These articles are not meant to be comprehensive lists of everything coming out that week — think of them as a nice rounded tasting menu. Each week I’ll try to highlight several games from different corners of the gaming landscape (handhelds, consoles, indie, PC, you name it) then finish up with a “Pick of the Week”.
Hit the jump for the five games you’re going to want to check out this week…
The series seven finale of Doctor Who aired this weekend. We’ll refrain from spoiling it, but there’s an excellent recap here. And though we won’t be getting more Doctor Who until the 50th anniversary special airs November 23rd, we have some good news.
First of all, here’s what we do know: We were all wrong about the surprise in the finale, and about the identity of Clara Oswin. Of all the theories I developed, and of all the theories I read about before the season finale, I don’t believe I read anything even close to the actual surprise, and credit to Moffat for coming up with something even better than the theories we all tossed about. The only issue I have is that Moffat has put the lid on one can or worms, and opened up another, and less than a few hours after viewing the finale (at the time of this writing), my head is already spinning trying to figure out the cliffhanger, develop more theories, and predict what’s to come next. It’s the most excited I’ve been about Doctor Who this season, and probably since the River Song mystery.
But let’s take a step back and review what we learned from the season finale.
