The Current War trailer 1

I have to admit, I’m in love with the cast of this movie. I’m a huge fan of  Cumberbatch but with a supporting cast of Michael Shannon, Nicholas Hoult, and Tom Holland I’m pretty set. A movie about Edison and  Tesla fighting over electricity sounds pretty interesting and from the trailer, there is some nice cinematography at play. I’m fairly excited for this movie. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Stadia Games Will Not be Cheaper than Console or PC Counterparts

Recently Stadia boss Phil Harrison told Eurogamer “I don’t know why it would be cheaper” in reference to the price of games. This honestly doesn’t surprise me at all honestly as digital games aren’t any cheaper than physical copies anyway despite obviously being cheaper to distribute. While it will be nice to be able to play on just about any screen, the idea that they were ever going to be cheaper is ridiculous to me. Besides the extra cost of creating this new format it, they want all the profit they can possibly get. While there is a free option and a $10 a month option (more details on that here ) and that will help, they obviously won’t want to cut into that else ware. Regardles, it will be interesting. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Live Action Little Mermaid Eyes Melissa McCarthy for Ursula

Variety reports that as of now that Melissa McCarthy is in early talks with Disney to play the evil sea witch Ursula in the live action Little Mermaid movie. McCarthy is a highly talented tho not always loved actor that got started with comedies and really became known to me while playing Sookie St. James in The Gilmore girls. I think if she ends up in this role it will be a love hate issue for many sadly, tho for me I am good with it and hope it works out. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory/

Charlie’s Angels reboot trailer

I have to say, I wasn’t completely sure this movie was even real when announced. In our current entertainment world, nostalgia reigns supreme but after the epic failure of the last TV show reboot, I kinda thought the Angels were long gone. I guess not. Well, I can’t really tell if it’ll be alright but it does seem to have some camp which could be fun. I don’t want to shit on it mainly because I was a fan of the A Team movie and I get a vibe of it here. Regardless, I’m morbidly curious how it will play out. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Game of Evolution Click & Merge (Mobile)

Game of Evolution Click & Merge is clearly a clicker mobile game, and not a good one. You start with a single celled organism and combine them together. Each time you do this they will make a bigger creature. They eventually turn into land creatures such as dinosaurs, monkeys and people. Each increasing more advanced creature will be worth more money.

The problem is the game is never fun. There is no challenge to it, and the only fun part is that the creatures do look pretty cute. The sound is repetitive as well, so honesty while this is a short review, you shouldn’t waste your time playing this game. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

The Office Leaving Netflix, in 2021.

Yes you read that right, Netflix is losing The Office. In January of 2021 when NBC starts it own streaming service because everyone has to have one of those now. It is one of the most popular shows on Netflix and you are quickly running out of time to watch it. It is a short year and a half away roughly after all.  Good luck finishing this one guys, I am not sure there is enough time. (this is heavily sarcastic) Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

All New X- Men: Yesterday’s X Men

an xmen 1

Dealing with the past is hard enough, but how do you deal with the future? Being a mutant in the Marvel universe has never been easy, especially for the X-Men, but dealing with the dark future that awaits you is something else entirely.

After countless adventures and a battle against the Avengers, Cyclops, leader of the X-Men has given up the cause. Xavier’s school has divided, joining Cyclops in starting a new violent revolution with Magneto and Emma Frost. Professor X is dead and the X-men are in disarray under the guidance of Kitty Pryde, Storm, Iceman and a dying Beast. Beast in a last fit of desperation travels back in time to when the X-Men originated, with hopes the original team can reignite present Cyclops’s faith in there cause. At first he’s seen as an enemy, but his younger self, Professor X, and a young Jean discovering her new telepathic abilities verify his story. Professor X lets them go thinking it will be a quick mission, hoping what he discovers about there futures won’t come out, but it doesn’t stop Jean from finding there futures out. Can the original X-Men stop this new revolution and bring peace to the present?

Normally, I’m not a fan of time travel stories but this is one of my exceptions. Bendis, who wrote Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Avengers which lead to the crossover Guardians of the Galaxy/ All New X Men: The Trial of Jean Grey . I love the premise and I love the idea of the young X Men having to cope with there futures. The final battle at the end between past and present Cyclops was pretty cool. It’s honestly a cool series for those who enjoyed the movies and I recommend it. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

John Wick Chapter 3: Parabellum

john wick 3

When will the world learn not to piss John Wick off? After breaking one of the greatest rules of the High Table and killing on safe ground, John Wick has an hour before being ex- communicated and open for bounty and there’s an endless supply of assassins that want to cash in. Wounded, exhausted, and with nearly all his connections burned, it’s up to Wick to meet with the Elder of the High Table to cut a deal his hopes of making amends. However the Ajudgicator of the High Table is checking on Wick’s unlikely survival with her deadly enforcers, punishing all who defied the Table by aiding Wick to make it this far. Wick faces a choice as his future approaches, live as a slave or die holding what he loved dear; can he find the strength to beat consequence?

Like the first and John Wick: Chapter 2 , I loved the third, making an awesome trilogy. Reeves is once again a stoic badass with a heart. The action scenes are brilliantly done and never feel fake or CGI; I love that the series carries what I loved about old school action movies in the present day. The setting and characters are unique and once again the world is fascinating. It drags a little bit come the middle of the movie but picks right up by the end. I can’t wait for 4 but I hope 4 is where it will end, making it nearly perfect. If you love awesome action movies and cool stories, I highly recommend the 3rd chapter of Wick’s saga. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
