New Suicide Squad Series Coming From DC (Exclusive!)

New DVD release
You probably know Simon Spurrier and Aaron Campbell from their time together on DC’s John Constantine: Hellblazer series. The pair teamed up to create the best John Constantine stories in years, putting out 12 issues that gave the character back his edge and landed on countless best of the year lists by some of the finest tastemakers in comics journalism. Their working relationship on the book was fantastic, wedding the realistic and the magical beautifully.  “We learned that the two of us can get real weird if we want,” Campbell tells us. So of course they’d keep the band together…

The Expanse Season 6 Trailer Reveals Unlikely Pairings

New DVD release
With The Expanse season 6 being the series’ final run, there isn’t much time to resolve the solar system’s woes, but the journey to whatever resolution the show gives us will be about what the characters everyone loves do with their remaining time on screen. The latest trailer for the series, which begins its final season on December 10th, gives a few hints about what relationships, both supportive and confrontational, will take center stage in the story to come. Some established connections, such as the intimacy between Holden and Naomi, are seen to have been reforged since the circumstances that…

The Game Awards 2021 Nominations: Biggest Snubs and Surprises

New DVD release
The nominees for The Game Awards 2021 have finally been revealed, which means that it’s also finally time to talk about the biggest video game award show of the year’s most notable snubs and surprises. In all seriousness, trying to make a shortlist of the best games of the year is a difficult and often thankless task that becomes even more thankless and difficult when you happen to be responsible for the biggest awards show in a particular medium. This has also been an especially strange year for video games as many notable titles were delayed (or perhaps rushed to…

Next James Bond: Dwayne Johnson Throws His Hat in the Ring

New DVD release
With the coveted role of James Bond now vacant, there’s obviously no shortage of prominent actors attempting to generate enough public interest for consideration. Indeed, the latest such instance highlights the enduring desirability of the gig, since it comes from the highest-paid actor in the film industry, Dwayne Johnson. While the mere thought of the muscle-bound, bald 6’ 5” former American wrestling phenomenon as a suave, seductive, martini-sipping British agent with a license to kill might be hard for fans to fathom for several reasons, the role would actually fulfill a family legacy for Johnson directly related to the Bond…

Link Tank: Why the MCU Needs to Embrace Comic-Accurate X-Men Costumes

New DVD release
With Marvel Studios tackling the X-Men for the first time with the follow-up cartoon series to the 1990s version, it’s time we start talking about the return of comic-accurate costumes in live-action, yellow spandex, and all. “It wasn’t like X-Men fans weren’t primed for those yellow spandex suits. Leading up to the movie’s debut, X-Men: The Animated Series was one of the most popular superheroes shows on TV, spawning an entire cinematic universe that included Spider-Man: The Animated Series, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man, Fantastic Four, and The Silver Surfer. And yet, the movies practically pretended the show didn’t exist. That was kids’ stuff. This is serious.” Read…

Doctor Who: Flux – Is Barbara Flynn’s Awsok The White Guardian?

New DVD release
Warning: Contains spoilers for Doctor Who: Flux Episode 3 ‘Once, Upon Time’ Any little pig will tell you that straw is no basis on which to build. Keep that in mind when, in a little bit, it’s put to you that a new mysterious character in Doctor Who might actually be an old mysterious character from Doctor Who on the basis of a straw hat. Fair warning given. (Not all fan theories can be zingers, but we’ve still got to have them, if only to give us all something harmless to consider between episodes while nibbling the chocolate from around…

​​​​The Macross Franchise is Finally Making it Back to the U.S.

New DVD release
For a long time the Macross anime franchise couldn’t escape the shadow of Robotech, at least in America. Ever since Robotech utilized the first Macross series as part of its amalgamation of three shows in the ‘80s, it’s been difficult for Macross to make its own place in the United States. Due to complicated legal problems most of the franchise besides the original series wasn’t legally available in the U.S. for the past 20 years. This was a shame since the Macross franchise continued on from its original series with multiple sequels, films, manga, and more. Now we’re finally getting…

GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition Reminds Us How Immature These Games Were

New DVD release
The absolutely botched release of the “Definitive Edition” of the GTA Trilogy is rightfully being called out by fans and critics everywhere, but it has to be said that getting the chance to explore these games again and hear everyone talk about them again has been a real joy regardless of the unforgivable quality of the remasters themselves. However, if we’re going to have a modern conversation about these games, then we have to spend at least a little time talking about how their age and our own ages as (hopefully) maturing fans expose how immature they really were. At…

Red Notice and the True Stories Behind Cleopatra’s Eggs

Netflix, New DVD release
We meet them even before Dwayne Johnson and Ryan Reynolds can exchange their first quip, and well ahead of Gal Gadot’s big entrance: Cleopatra’s eggs, beautiful and bejeweled golden idols that apparently have driven fortune seekers mad for millennia. In Red Notice’s opening prologue, we are informed that these three diamond-encrusted prizes were gifted by Marc Antony to Cleopatra ahead of their wedding at the end of the Ptolemaic Dynasty’s rule over ancient Egypt. Lost to the sands of time after Cleopatra and Antony’s deaths, and the fall of Egypt to Rome, these eggs were allegedly thought to be myth…

The Elder Scrolls 6’s Xbox Exclusivity Doesn’t Make It a System Seller

New DVD release
In an interview with GQ, Xbox boss Phil Spencer continued to suggest that The Elder Scrolls 6 will be an Xbox exclusive title without just outright saying that the long-awaited sequel will be an Xbox exclusive title. “It’s not about punishing any other platform…I fundamentally believe all of the platforms can continue to grow,” Spencer said. “But in order to be on Xbox, I want us to be able to bring the full complete package of what we have. And that would be true when I think about Elder Scrolls 6. That would be true when I think about any…

Rogue Squadron Might Not Be the Only Star Wars Movie in Trouble Due to Creative Differences

New DVD release
Disney+ Day might have been a letdown for Star Wars fans hoping for lots of big updates about Lucasfilm’s upcoming slate of space adventures, but that doesn’t mean we didn’t get big news last week. It was just bad news: Rogue Squadron, the standalone Star Wars movie set to be directed by Patty Jenkins (Wonder Woman) for a 2023 release, has reportedly been delayed indefinitely. THR reported last week that the delay came down to Jenkins’ busy schedule. Her other commitments, including the upcoming Wonder Woman 3, which she will direct for Warner Bros., will prevent her from shooting Rogue…

The 200 Motels 50th Anniversary Edition was remastered by Bernie Grundman at Bernie Grundman Mastering, and includes unreleased and rare material from the Zappa music vault.

Ridley Scott Explains Why His “Superhero” Movies Are Better Than Today’s “Boring” Blockbusters

New DVD release
Ridley Scott has directed defining movie classics over his undeniably illustrious career, but a superhero movie is unlikely to grace his eclectic CV anytime soon. That’s because Scott has joined the small-but-potent chorus of prominent filmmakers who have drawn a line in the proverbial sand of superheroes and comic book movies. Yet, in articulating his gripe, Scott also redefines some of his genre classics as examples of “great” superhero movies.   Scott’s focus is far removed from the realm of capes and powered protagonists as he promotes the imminent release of his controversial biographical crime drama, House of Gucci. However,…

Halle Berry Pitches a “Reimagined” Catwoman Reboot

New DVD release
Fresh off her directorial debut on Netflix’s upcoming mixed martial arts drama, Bruised, Halle Berry is ready for her next bout. The Oscar-winning actress also stars in the film, but she is not undefeated in her onscreen record, and she wants a rematch. Berry wishes she could not only remake Catwoman, but reimagine it in a subversive turnaround. Catwoman would come out on top. “I would love to direct Catwoman,” Berry told Jake Hamilton on Jake’s Takes. “If I can get a hold of that now, knowing what I know, having had this experience and reimagine that world the way…

Could Kingpin Fight Spider-Man in the MCU After No Way Home?

New DVD release
Spider-Man: No Way Home doesn’t come out for another month but fans online are pretty sure they’ve unlocked all of its secrets.  The movie’s trailer and poster have promised the introduction of a multiverse and officially revealed that Alfred Molina’s Doc Ock and Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin from Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man films will be invading the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Doctor Who: Flux – We Hope This Bel and Vinder Theory Isn’t True

New DVD release
Warning: contains spoilers for Doctor Who: Flux Episode 3 ‘Once, Upon Time’ Amid the confusion masquerading as mystery in ‘Once, Upon Time’, two characters shone with gratifying simplicity: Bel and Vinder – soldiers, heroes, lovers, and soon-to-be parents. While the scree of main plot offered obfuscation and revelations that didn’t reveal much (the Flux is a spatial weapon, the Ravagers are temporal poison, Planet Time is the Division’s dirty secret, yes but… the story?), Bel and Vinder are a foothold. They’re good people in love who’ve been forced apart but who want to be together, and we want them to…

Battlefield 2042’s Biggest Problems Need to be Fixed Before Launch

New DVD release
Battlefield 2042 isn’t technically scheduled to launch until November 19, but the game’s Early Access period has already revealed a series of problems that have fans worried about the game’s upcoming release. While Battlefield 2042‘s beta strongly suggested the game was going to suffer from an array of the usual technical problems we’re treated to whenever a modern online multiplayer game launches (bug, glitches, disconnects, etc.), the game’s Early Access players are disappointed by not only some of the title’s larger problems but the fact they had to pay a premium for what seems to be an extended beta. While…

Belfast: Kenneth Branagh Remembers a Childhood That’s a Million Miles from Shakespeare

New DVD release
When one thinks of films by Irish director, actor, and writer Kenneth Branagh, the first word that comes to mind is “elaborate.” His directing resume alone consists of five Shakespeare adaptations (including a full-length, four-hour Hamlet in which he also stars), one cosmic superhero movie at Marvel, a live-action version of a classic Disney fairy tale, and a star-studded adaptation of arguably the most famous mystery novel of the 20th century. Clearly, this is a storyteller who likes to go big. Which is what makes his new film, Belfast, so surprising in so many ways. It’s the opposite of what…

Dexter: New Blood Episode 2 Review

New DVD release
This Dexter review contains spoilers. Dexter: New Blood Episode 2  For a guy who’s supposed to be laying low, living under an assumed identity to avoid being recognized, caught, and convicted as a prolific serial killer, Dexter Morgan sure picked a hell of a love interest to get involved with. If it’s not bad enough that the ever-awkward former blood analyst embedded himself in town so thoroughly that even the natives on the nearby reservation are on a first name basis with “Jim,” Dexter also had to cozy up to a chief of police that has already proven to be…
