When you’re getting ready to release a blockbuster action film, if there is merchandising involved, you normally try to get a jump start on production so it will coincide with the film’s release. The issue you tend to run into is that preview samples of that merchandise can give away some of the details you were hoping to keep under wraps. This appears to be the case with the preview of the Avengers End Game War Machine action figure. While the general design of the armor appears to be similar to the suit that Rhodey wore in Avengers Infinity War…

With Valentine’s Day approaching, it only makes sense that we share a love story. Supergirl Star Melissa Benoist Posted on her Instagram account the happy news that her and actor Chris Wood were now engaged. You might remember Wood played the role of Mon-El, a Daxamite prince who ended up on Earth when the destruction of Krypton also led to the devastation of his home world. Mon-El appeared in Season Two and Three. While the characters formed first a friendship and then a love interest, apparently the actors also followed that script. Congrats to them both. You can share your best…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”15381″ img_size=”800×450″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]When Solo: A Star Wars Story didn’t perform at the box office as well as expected, it was mentioned that perhaps a slow down in the production of Star Wars films might be in the works. This apparently didn’t faze David Benioff and D.B. Weiss who have taken a leave of absence from HBO to work on their Star Wars trilogy. Normally, HBO would be reluctant to let the talents of creators like Benioff and Weiss stray too far from the farm. However, telling someone they cannot work on a project like Star Wars is problematic if…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”15408″ img_size=”953×537″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]TellTale Games was a successful gaming developer. Their list of published games was somewhat lengthy and pretty popular. From The Walking Dead, to Minecraft Story Mode, Back to the Future, Game of  Thrones, Tales of Monkey Island, and Sam and Max save the world, TellTale was bringing back fan favorites and putting their own unique spin on them. You can imagine the shock and disappointment of gaming fans when the company unexpectedly closed its doors back in November of 2018. In what is perhaps a positive development, four of the creative talents behind TellTale games have joined together to…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”15389″ img_size=”800×450″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]With the success of Beauty and the Beast, The Jungle Book, and the upcoming productions of Mulan, Aladdin, and The Lion King, it is only natural to think of what might be coming up next. According to a report from MovieHole, talks have begun about possibly returning to the world of The Nightmare Before Christmas. Initially, these talks have centered around potentially making an animated sequel to Tim Burton’s 1994 film which was produced under the Touchstone banner. In addition, the report also claims that the film might possibly become the next live-action adaptation for a Disney.  Disney themselves have made no announcements as far as…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=”https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zhHkuOuaR9Q&feature=youtu.be” align=”center”][vc_column_text]While most of the Trailer buzz during the Grammys has been about Disney’s Aladdin and the now blue Will Smith as the Genie, and the debate on whether he looked awesome or like a bearded member of Blue Men Group, Marvel was also able to slip in some new footage of its rapidly approaching Captain Marvel during the broadcast. As seen above, it features the mantra of the movie (Higher, Further, Faster) spoken over the footage. In addition, we also hear someone telling Carol “you won’t last a week”, “they’ll never let you fly”, and “this isn’t a game for…

So when I last left you, we had a working Arcade 1UP Pac-Man cabinet and a selection of additional parts purchased to allow it to play more than just Pac-Man and Pac-Man Plus. Let’s open up this pickle jar. The first thing that needed to be done is to remove the original control panel. If you have done any research into upgrading these types of cabinets, most have been done to the Street Fighter Edition cabinet. The reason for that is the control panel for it is already a two player panel. No need to recreate the wheel. All that…

While it was planned to be a part of the film, the whole Superman cameo appeared to be DOA once an agreement couldn’t be reached between Cavill and Warner Bros. A recent report throws that status in question as a test screening suggested that the filmmakers indeed had Superman make a cameo, although without his face visible. If true, it allows DC to get around their current predicament as far as Cavill is concerned while still having a connection with…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”15290″ img_size=”900×500″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]So it appears Josh Gad might have some competition for the Penguin role in the upcoming Matt Reeves Batman film. Jack Black revealed that he thought that the chance to play Penguin might be fun. Black talked about this subject during the promotion for his film, The House with a Clock in its Walls.  I mean, I hate to put myself out there and say that because then when I don’t get that part, it was, ‘Oh, Jack tried to get the thing.’ I didn’t try anything! I’m just saying maybe that would be good. He then followed up by imitating…

It was originally a 10 part series on Reddit in…
