How Servant Season 3 Leans Into Its Bonkers Tragi Comedy

Ever since Servant arrived on Apple TV+, the series has embraced a dark sense of humor alongside its tragic storyline. And with season three dropping on the streaming service today, the show only gets weirder and wilder. Created by Tony Basgallop, season one introduced the story of Dorothy (Lauren Ambrose) and Sean (Toby Kebbell) Turner, who, after the death of their infant son Jericho, replace the baby with a life-like doll to help Dorothy with the grieving process....

How Shang Chi Could Make Up For Doctor Strange S Ancient One Whitewash

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is clearly being positioned as the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s next premiere tent-pole, as a walk through the action-figure-teeming toy aisles of mass retail stores now proves. Notwithstanding what that means for the next immediate MCU movie event, the July premium streaming premiere of Black Widow, the fact that Marvel and its Disney-powered marketing machine is supporting Shang-Chi to this extent is a sign of the film’s importance to the overall MCU....

How Spider Man No Way Home Changed Alfred Molina S Doc Ock Performance

“[Molina was] one of my favorite people I’ve ever worked with,” lauds Holland of the returning Raimi Spider-Man movie alumnus. “It was really fun to watch him see how technology has advanced. When he was making these films, the arms were puppets, and when we did it, they’re all imaginary and CG. It was quite cool to see him relive it, but also relearn it.” Molina’s Spider-Man 2 role as the iconic character often abbreviated as Doc Ock was the first—and thus far definitive—live-action rendition for one of the Wall-Crawler’s oldest top-tier archnemeses....

How Yellowstone And 1883 Celebrate Dutton Women Through The Generations

This article contains spoilers for Yellowstone and 1883. On the surface, Taylor Sheridan, Paramount’s golden-boy and keystone to the neo-Western, is one of the most prolific new voices for male moviegoers and television viewers. His works are visceral, raw, violent, and he’s been responsible for creating some of the toughest of tough guys in his television work like Mayor of Kingstown, Yellowstone, and 1883. Yet Sheridan has also been praised for his creation of strong female leads; modern women who are equal to their male partners and counterparts....

I Pretended To Play Pokemon As Gary Oak Because Ash Is A Loser

Gary Oak is better than Ash Ketchum in every conceivable way. He’s funnier, knows much more about Pokemon, and, most of all, is not a total idiot. And so, when I see people naming their Pokemon rival Gary… Well, I just feel like saying, “Listen, you know you don’t have to be like Ash, right?” The reason I’m banging on about this now is because Gary Oak is returning to the Pokemon anime, which is the best Pokemon news I’ve heard in ages....

Injustice 2 Reschedules This Week S Character Reveal

NetherRealm Studios reschedules this week’s original character reveal date for its forthcoming fighting game, Injustice 2, pushing the unveiling back until next week. Several days ago, the video game developer NetherRealm Studios promised it would have a new Injustice 2 character reveal ready for February 7, 2017, which was just prior to today. However, since the company failed to provide any assets to promote the inclusion of a fresh fighter to the game’s roster yesterday, NetherRealm Studios has decided to reschedule the character’s reveal until next week, with the Injustice 2 hero or villain set to be unveiled on February 13, 2017....

Is This The Elder Scrolls 6 S Setting

Bethesda ended its E3 2018 press conference with the announcement of The Elder Scrolls 6, but stopped short of providing any concrete details about the game. However, we were shown a brief teaser trailer of a valley and some mountains near the coast, and while it may not seem like much, it may very well reveal where the upcoming game is set. As hardcore Elder Scrolls fans will note, the landscape seen in The Elder Scrolls 6 teaser trailer at E3 2018 seems to best match the province of High Rock....

Grand Theft Auto 5 Exploit Could Allow Banned Players Back Online

When Grand Theft Auto 5 made its way to the PC market after months of delays, the modding community was more than ready to start using the amazing world of Los Santos as a giant sandbox for creativity. Rockstar played along and offered a toolbox of modding support for the game’s single player mode, but has been much more strict about Grand Theft Auto Online. To keep the game fair and fun for all players, no modding or cheating is allowed in the game’s online mode....

Heroes Of The Storm Character Temporarily Banned Due To Exploit

With Heroes of the Storm, Blizzard’s making a big push into the increasingly lucrative multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) scene. That makes sense: thanks mostly to eSports’ growing popularity among both players and viewers, MOBA games are the fastest-growing PC gaming market, with titles like Riot’s League of Legends and Valve’s Dota 2 on track to generate over $500 million this year alone. In order for Heroes of the Storm to succeed, Blizzard’s going to need to do two things....

Highest Rated Game For Each Nintendo System According To Metacritic

Nintendo has had dozens of smash hit games in it’s long and storied history, but some always stand out more than others. These games have the exceptional distinction of being the highest rated game for each respective Nintendo console, going from the NES to the recent Nintendo Switch. Because of their ages, the scores for the NES and SNES games will be taken from ports for the Game Boys Advance. Additionally, the Game Boy and Virtual Boy are left out of the equation....

Homeland Season 6 Episode 11 Review R Is For Romeo

And ironically, the most exciting thing about the episode is not in the pyrotechnics of a somewhat arbitrary cliffhanger; it’s in the tension of a president (or president-elect) sitting down with rightwing talk radio/fake news, legitimizing that type of crazy and challenging it in a conversation that would suggest the fate of the republic rests in the hands of the seedy underside of the internet. It is as dubious a scenario as the idea that a secret cabal in Langley would actually try to remove an American head of state by force, yet it is a far more tantalizing one....

How Dragon Age 4 Can Avoid Mass Effect S Disappointing Fate

BioWare is relying on the success of Dragon Age 4 more than ever. After the disappointing reception of Mass Effect: Andromeda and the even more financially disappointing launch of Anthem, the studio needs to get back on track with its flagship fantasy franchise if it’s going to regain the confidence of both its fans and its investors. Mass Effect: Andromeda was the last ME franchise RPG released by BioWare, with it going on ice thereafter (but hopefully being revived now), and there are many things BioWare did in that game that the studio will need to avoid in the next Dragon Age to make the game a success....

How The Cyberpunk 2077 Soundtrack Found Its Dystopian Sound In A Soviet Era Synthesizer

CD Projekt Red’s Cyberpunk 2077 is arguably the the biggest video game release of 2020, transporting players to a gritty sci-fi world full of bio-augmented criminals and lowlives. True to its name, the game explores some pretty deep concepts about cyberspace and what life might be like in a futuristic transhuman society where technological advancements have turned us less human and more machine. So it’s no surprise that the game’s score often sounds like something recovered from the year 2077 and brought back to our time....

How To Beat The Nameless One In Minecraft Dungeons

The quest to defeat the Arch Illager will ulitmately take players to the Desert Temple, one of Minecraft Dungeons’ most difficult levels. This temple is littered with booby traps, difficult enemies, and may even end up being the player’s first encounter with Enderman, but all of this pales in comparison to its boss, the Nameless One. The Nameless One pulls out all the stops, forcing players to think outside the box and approach combat in a new way....

Hyperx Cloud Mix Wired Gaming Headset Review

At first glance, it seems simple enough to overlook the HyperX Cloud Mix gaming headset, as it appears to be a very streamlined and basic headset. However, what it does, it does well, and it’s worth a second look for anyone who does glance over it. It comes with quite a few bells and whistles, including but not limited to, Bluetooth technology for on-the-go connectivity, the HyperX Dual Chamber Drivers, a strong durable frame, a built-in detachable boom mic, and more....
