If you were looking forward to it or not, or even if you don’t care, Screenrant is reporting the Charlie’s Angel reboot has been delayed until November 2019. There are numerous reasons for this, but mainly it is so it seems to be so it doesn’t have to compete with more high-profile movies. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Our Favorites, Day 24: The Hills Have Eyes (06)
The Hills Have Eyes(06) is one of those rare exceptions of a remake surpassing the original. This mutant filled revenge tale is simple, badass, and epic while also being disturbing and creepy. That being said, it was my favorite time ever seeing a movie in theaters. My dad took me to see it opening weekend in theaters to a packed house and everyone was genuinely into it. When the tides turn and the main dude gets his revenge, the audience cheered. There were actual cheers, people applauded, high fives were given and it was so much fun. I always wanted to say I made something that fulfilling and unique. It was a great moment with my dad too, seeing him whistle and throw his fist in glee every time the dog killed someone. The memories and the inspiration it gave me are why it’s on this list. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Seven In Heaven (2018)
Seven In Heaven is a Blumhouse production and damn is this movie weird as hell. Two teens at a party are not so willingly sent into a closet to play Seven Minutes in Heaven, and end up in an alternate dimension. Think more realistic Chronicles of Narnia. As soon as they get to the new place they find themselves in the same house, at a similar party, yet much more violent. Jude(Travis Tope) is kind of the class nerd and June (Haley Ramm) is sort of dating the class bully that most people don’t like. These two will be stuck on the other side, and things aren’t pretty. In fact Jude is accused of stabbing the class bully Derek (Jake Manley)
I don’t want to go to in-depth with the story since honestly all of the joy in this movie is in figuring out what the hell is even going on in the first place. Not that the movie is confusing by any means, it just leaves you to figure it out right up until the very end and has a few twist and turns. The acting and visuals are nice and honestly I see no real reason for the low scores the movie has on IMBd as I rather enjoyed it myself. If you have the time check this one out on Netflix. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Our favorites, Day 23: Cabin in the Woods
Don’t hit the red button. I can’t stress that enough: beware the red button. Cabin in the Woods is probably one of the best WTF horror comedies to date and may possibly be the most clever. The most cliche horror story, a group of college buddies going to a remote cabin in the woods for a weekend becomes something far more sinister behind the scenes. There is a lot to this movie I really don’t want to spoil because it is inspired when it’s all put together and it’s a must watch.
The reason it’s on this list is because of the “Red Button” scene which is legendary but also this was my favorite double feature at a theater. My old writing partner, my dad and I went to see Avengers opening day. Being so pumped after, my partner and I wanted to keep the hype going and see another movie. He wanted to see the Hunger Games and I wanted to see this. We flipped a coin and well, my favorite coin toss ever and why it’s on the list. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Red Dead Redemption 2 Spoilers are Sadly Happening, but not here.
First I feel obligated to say this, this is my opinion on the fact that spoilers are being out there, this is not a place where you will find those spoilers. So if you want those spoilers, keep looking. If you are worried about them, you are safe.
As with all big releases, leaks and spoilers happen. Now to an extent what people count as spoilers is a bit weird and vague, like a map really isn’t a spoiler. It tells you nothing of the story or what happens when you get there, it is just a map. Some generic game play also isn’t a spoiler. Sadly like all other stuff if you know where to look other stuff is being leaked, some of it clearly a joke like ” Arthur kills john” which we know isn’t true. However this trend of ruining big triple A titles really needs to stop, especially considering chances are the ending will most likely be everywhere by the time the game launches, much like the ending to GTAV was. So as always everyone, be kind, don’t ruin the damn game, best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Friday the 13th, Produced by LeBron James?
Yea you read that headline right, ScreenRant is reporting that none other than LeBron James is in talks to reboot Friday the 13th as producer. This may seem odd but with him being heavily involved with Space Jam, his career most likely winding down and the new era of horror in full swing this is quite a smart move on his part if its true. It will be interesting to see where if anywhere this leads. Best interest and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Our Favorites Day 22, The Strangers
The Strangers did something special and scared the hell out of me not as a kid but a 18 year old adult. I grew up in the suburbs of Scranton- a very quiet unassuming place. We lived in a picturesque house, a house that had a lot of windows downstairs so first seeing this downstairs, at night, imagining people watching you, lurking around your house without you knowing was somehow easy to visualize. I also have some deep seeded paranoia issues, so this movie stayed with me in the dark for years later which is why it’s on this list. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
G-Star 2018
Coming up in November is G-Star 2018 in Korea. For those of you like myself that are not familiar with it, here is a link with some info. G-Star. G-star seems to be similar to American E3 with events set up for the press and companies to show off upcoming products as well as having an E-Sports event.
I actually heard about the event when i was asked by a representative of Intragames if i would be attending and if i would be interested in visiting their booth, which sadly for me being in America that really is not a realistic trip for me to be making as much as me and @torstenvblog would have loved to have gone. Mostly I am sharing this so that hopefully others can keep an eye out and learn about another even that features all kinds of games. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Netflix Cancels Luke Cage and Iron Fist
Recently it was announced that Netflix canceled both Luke Cage and Iron Fist, and many are worried that Jessica Jones may be next. (who knows by the time you read this it may already have happened) There are plenty of ideas as to why this may have happened, lack of interest maybe. I however feel it’s a different reason. See in late 2019 Disney will launch its own streaming service and in a world that already has two major services in Netflix and Hulu and many other smaller ones Disney will need a way to draw in customers.
There are a number of ways to this, for example they will obviously have plenty of their own Disney movies but they also own Star Wars and the Marvel. What better way to bring in customers to a fledgling streaming service than with the already established Marvel shows being revived or the entire MCU being available at launch?
I also would not be surprised to see them open the Disney vault and put their classic cartoon movies on there like Bambi and Aladdin. Disney is a power house and has a huge amount of resources to draw from and they will likely abuse that fact. For the time being losing your favorite show sucks, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they come back. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
