Star Wars: The Mandalorian Season 3 Set Photos Reveal New Mystery Character

The wait for the next season of The Mandalorian hasn’t been an easy one, especially after two massive cliffhangers that left the internet ablaze last December. One of those cliffhangers will be addressed in The Book of Boba Fett, which continues the story of Boba and Fennec Shand’s hostile takeover of Jabba the Hutt’s old territory on Tatooine. But the other cliffhanger — whether Din Djarin and Grogu will ever be reunited — will remain a mystery into next year. Delays due to the Covid-19 pandemic forced The Mandalorian to skip a year, but the good news is that Lucasfilm…

Doctor Who: Flux: What is Swarm and Azure’s plan?

Warning: contains spoilers for Doctor Who: Flux ‘War of the Sontarans’ He waited. He planned. And now, he’s going to execute. That’s what Swarm told Division Agent K-Toscs before doing exactly that and blasting her into a billion pieces of glittery cloud with the touch of his hand in ‘The Halloween Apocalypse‘. Swarm had already paralysed and drained her boss of life, absorbing her energy to fuel his revivifying ‘renewal’, and psychically fritzed his containment chamber to escape a millennia-long incarceration. All of this action was beamed direct to the Doctor’s brain via a reactivated psychic link she once shared…

Kevin Costner Almost Starred in a Different Robin Hood Movie with John McTiernan

It’s strange to consider 20 years later, but once upon a time studio executives were obsessed with Kevin Costner playing Robin Hood. This is ironic, of course, since Costner’s English “accent” in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves has become a meme unto itself over the decades. But nevertheless, we are still talking about his adventures in Sherwood Forest—and in what is still the last popular Robin Hood movie to make money and have an impact on pop culture. This might speak then to the logic of film producers circa 1990. And that extends beyond just those at Morgan Creek Entertainment…

How Marvel’s Eternals Succeeds Where Captain America: Civil War Failed

This article contains MAJOR ETERNALS spoilers. You can read our spoiler-free review of the MCU movie here. If you break Marvel’s Eternals down to a barebones premise, the latest MCU film is the story of a family that loves each other but is torn asunder by ideological differences in spite of that love. It’s one of the more topical thematic explorations in the MCU pantheon—a central tension Captain America: Civil War promised us, but never fully delivered on. Eternals isn’t about Deviants. It’s not about shepherding humanity through millennia of technological development. It’s not even about a Celestial partially emerging…

Call of Duty Vanguard: How to Fix the Most Common Bugs and Glitches

Call of Duty: Vanguard is here, and, in the grand tradition of most modern Call of Duty games at launch, it’s full of bugs and glitches that are haunting early adopters who couldn’t wait to grab the series’ latest installment. The annual arrival of a series of major technical problems isn’t exactly the Call of Duty franchise’s proudest tradition, but unless you’re waiting to buy Vanguard, the sad fact of the matter is that you’re going to have to deal with quite a few problems that could severely impact your ability to enjoy, or even play, the game. With that…

How Elden Ring Already Improves Modern Open World Games

After watching Elden Ring’s extended gameplay preview many, many times since it was unleashed last week, I’m starting to think that the much-anticipated 2022 title is already doing some things that show it will almost inevitably improve upon some of the biggest weaknesses of modern open world games. To be transparent, I will admit that I previously compared Elden Ring‘s hype to Cyberpunk 2077‘s hype, and I will stand by that warning. We should all be aware by now that there is no such thing as a guaranteed great game, and we should all prepare ourselves for the ways the…

What The Walking Dead: World Beyond’s Jadis Return Reveals About Rick Grimes

“I gave the CRM something very valuable and I got a new life.” As massive and fruitful as The Walking Dead franchise has been for AMC over the past eleven years, its imminently-ending mothership series has been without main character Rick Grimes since 2018’s Season 9. While the absence was a result of star Andrew Lincoln’s exit, the grievously-wounded Rick escaped expected martyrdom to be kept afloat, quite literally, via helicopter in a move that set up surprise movie projects. Now, over three years later, spinoff The Walking Dead: World Beyond has the first update on our misplaced protagonist, thanks…

Rogue Squadron Delayed: Will There Ever Be a New Star Wars Movie?

One of the three Star Wars movies officially in active development, Rogue Squadron, has been delayed. According to THR, the Patty Jenkins-directed project was set to begin pre-production later this year and go in front of cameras sometime in 2022. But now, per the outlet, the project is being put on the back burner because of other commitments on the part of Jenkins. It’s not clear if writer Matthew Robinson will stay attached to the movie. The unsourced quote that is sure to raise a few eyebrows is this one: “The hope is that once Jenkins fulfills her previous commitments,…

Animal Crossing New Horizons: How to Find Gyroids

Animal Crossing: New Horizons‘ 2.0 update is absolutely massive, but one of the most popular additions to the beloved game are the little decorative statues known as Gyroids. Anyone familiar with the previous entries in the Animal Crossing franchise will certainly be familiar with Gyroids, but those who just found this franchise with the release of New Horizons are probably wondering just what a Gyroid is, why people are going crazy for them, and how they can find one for themselves. Well, that’s why we’re here. Here’s everything you need to know about Gyroids in Animal Crossing: New Horizons (including…

Doctor Who: The Real-Life History of Mary Seacole

Doctor Who: Flux Episode 2, “War of the Sontarans,” features Mary Seacole (Sara Powell), Britain’s first Black nurse, in the middle of a Sontaran invasion of Earth in 1855. Aliens meddling in human history is a classic Doctor Who trope, and the long-running series often grounds the sci-fi adventure in real-life history. So what was factual about Seacole’s role in the Crimean War and what was fiction from the mind of Chris Chibnall? Read on to find out… The real Mary Seacole (née Mary Joan Grant) was born in Jamaica in 1805 to a white father and a biracial mother. Her…

Link Tank: Will There Be a Baby Driver 2?

Apparently, Edgar Wright has finished a script for Baby Driver 2, but he’s not sure if he wants to direct the movie. “A few weeks ago, Edgar Wright suggested that it’s very unlikely that he’ll ever go back and make a sequel to his breakout hit Shaun Of The Dead, going so far as to say that he doesn’t even have much interest in returning to the horror-comedy genre again. That’s not to say that Wright is opposed to sequels in general, because—during a conversation with Cary Fukunaga for Interview Magazine (via IGN)—Wright once more brought up the Baby Driver…

How Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda Showcases the Franchise’s Best Innovations

This article is presented by Nintendo. With Nintendo reviving its classic line of portable Game & Watch handhelds last year in honor of Super Mario’s 35th anniversary, it was only fair to give The Legend of Zelda the same treatment. Sure, we’ve had the pleasure of celebrating that franchise this year with the launch of Skyward Sword HD for the Nintendo Switch and Ocarina of Time joining the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack’s lineup, but why stop there? The new Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda is an ideal way to honor this series’ legacy. The Game & Watch…

Dexter: New Blood Episode 1 Review – Cold Snap

This Dexter: New Blood review contains spoilers. Dexter: New Blood Episode 1 While first-person writing is often avoided in my reviews, I can’t resist it when talking about Dexter. I started writing for Den of Geek as a college student in 2012. Dexter was the first show that I was assigned to review. This sounds completely ancient, but I had binged the first five seasons using DVDs I ordered from my local library.  Like everyone else, I thought that season 4 was a gripping watch, and the finale had my mouth agape and mind racing, wondering where Showtime would take…

Fear the Walking Dead Season 7 Episode 4 Review: Wendell Rescue Mission Goes South

This Fear the Walking Dead review contains spoilers.  Fear the Walking Dead Season 7 Episode 4 I like Lennie James. He’s a serious dramatic actor who truly commits to his roles. I like Mo Collins, too. She has good comedic timing but she also knows how to tap into her darker side. Demetrius Grosse is an imposing, formidable presence, commanding the screen in almost every scene he’s in. And then there’s Rufus, a lovable, loyal bloodhound. Toss in a bunch of zombies, and you have yourselves an entertaining, must-watch episode of Fear the Walking Dead. Or, at least, you should. …

Succession Season 3: Adrien Brody Torments the Roys

This article contains spoilers for Succession season 3 episode 4. On Succession, we’ve been so concerned with Kendall’s faux-woke antics and the impending DOJ investigation that we’ve forgotten all about the hostile takeover attempt from Sandy and Stewy. There’s still an upcoming shareholder meeting taking place for control over Waystar Royco, and with Roys fighting amongst themselves, they’re looking pretty vulnerable in the eyes of their shareholders. One shareholder in particular, Josh Aaronson (Adrien Brody) seems like he’ll be a pivotal vote in who ends up with the keys to the castle, but it’s tough to get a read on…

The Simpsons Season 33 Episode 6 Review: A Serious Flanders (Part 1)

This The Simpsons review contains spoilers. The Simpsons Season 33 Episode 6 The Simpsons, season 33, episode 6, is proof the series’ installments should be given more room to breathe. The first of a two-part episode takes the time to fill most of the space with laughs. “A Serious Flanders” is a spoof of the FX series Fargo, and the takeoffs are immersive. This is one of the deepest dives into the core of a known series The Simpsons has made in a long time. The episode is brought to you by Simpflix, and it opens on the channel’s landing…

Doctor Who: Flux Episode 2 Review – War of the Sontarans

Doctor Who Series 13 Episode 2 Review Warning: this Doctor Who review contains spoilers. As was teased by last week’s cliffhanger, we begin on something of a gloomy note as the unstoppable Flux completely obliterates the Doctor, her companions and the TARDIS. It’s a shock move by Chris Chibnall that ends the series for good with a thirty-second climax that no-one saw coming. Russell T. Davies is really going to have his work cut out retconning this one. No, hang on, I’ve turned over two pages at once. The Doctor, her companions and the TARDIS are still in one piece, more or…

Eternals Box Office Sees Marvel’s Lowest Opening Since Ant-Man in 2015

With its divisive reception among critics and even diehard fans, tongues are definitely wagging over Marvel Studios’ 26th theatrical release, Eternals. But despite low marks across the board from review aggregates and audience polls, the film is still doing (barely) adequate business by Marvel standards. Indeed, Disney now estimates Chloé Zhao’s unique entry in the franchise grossed $71 million over the weekend—the lowest debut for a Marvel movie since Ant-Man earned $57.2 million in 2015, but above the $65 million range competitors were estimating yesterday. The news comes after the online discourse around Eternals heated up due to the movie…

Marvel Studios Should Make More Movies Like Eternals

This article contains Marvel’s Eternals spoilers. I did not love Chloé Zhao’s Eternals. This isn’t a controversial statement to make for the first Marvel Studios film to receive a negative “Rotten” score on the aggregate movie review site, Rotten Tomatoes. Despite its expansive pacing—which, believe it or not, is two minutes longer than Denis Villeneuve’s Dune—Eternals struggles to balance its competing impulses and obligations. The movie wants to be a superhero creation myth, but also a grandiose epic about the cyclical nature of violence; it attempts to be a melodrama about its dizzying cast of 10 broody protagonists, but it…

Eternals: Dane Whitman and the Complicated Black Knight Legacy

This article contains Eternals spoilers and potential spoilers for the future of the MCU. You know nothing…about the Black Knight. Get it? Because the Black Knight is played by Kit Harington? You know, the dude that played Jon Snow on Game of Thrones? So like, “you know nothing…” Ah, forget it. Ahem. If the Eternals post-credits scene featuring Kit Harrington as Marvel’s Dane Whitman is any indication, then the Black Knight is joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe (possibly with an assist from Mahershala Ali’s Blade) pretty soon. It’s a little surprising considering that the classic Marvel Comics Black Knight really…
