Mark Hamill recently on Twitter a fan asked mark to describe the upcoming movie in 3 words, to which he ended much speculation when he replied “My final Episode” This really shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone seeing as how he died at the end of The Last Jedi. Historically there isn’t much of a use for a ghost in the series. Enjoy the trailer and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Killers (2010)
Killers with Kathrine Heigl and Ashton Kutcher is a 2010 Assasin comedy that was met with some mixed reviews. for example, it got a 10% on Rotten Tomatoes, a 5.4/10 on IMBd but 89% of Google users like it. It also basically flopped in theaters with a 75 million dollar budget and a 98 million dollar box office.
The movie itself is about an Assasin, Spencer (Ashton) that is on a mission and meets a woman, Jen (Kathrine) that has just gone through a break-up and is on a family vacation. They quickly fall in love, get married and Jen never finds out about Spencer’s real job. They end up with the perfect suburban life. That is for the first about three years.
Around three years, Spencer’s old boss comes knocking and tries to drag him back into the business, and when he refuses a $20 million bounty is placed on his head and his neighbors literally start trying to kill him. Somebody has been placing sleepers in his life for years, and they are trying to collect.
The movie has its funny moments and of course, the acting is well done. I also enjoyed the entire concept and while the ending was pretty easy to see coming it was still pretty cool to see happen. This is one of those movies for fans of romantic comedies with a twist, it’s a great movie. For everyone else, maybe not so much. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
They Come Knocking (2019)
They Come Knocking is the story of a father that takes his two daughters on a road trip about a year after tragically losing their mother to cancer. The road trip follows the same path mom and dad took years ago and ends where dad proposed. The intent is to camp for a couple days then spread her ashes. Its not a bad trip, until some mysterious figures show up.
These figures turn out to be some sort of demonic presence that wants them to come outside or be invited in, because for some reason demons need an invite like they are some weird ass vampires. They can also take any form they want from your memories. They use this many times in an attempt to kill or kidnap the family. They can also make you see things that aren’t there.
I won’t give much more away that that because I won’t tell you to not watch the movie. It isn’t a bad movie there are just some odd choices that are never really explained. For example there is no real explanation on why these things are here, why they are harassing this family or any of the others or why they ending works out the way it does.
That being said, the movie is a nice family story (tho it isn’t by any means child appropriate) about how they can come together and endure through adversity. I personally would not watch the movie again, but I can’t say I don’t recommend it.The movie just wasn’t for me. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Jay and Silent Bob Reboot Red Band Trailer to Debut at Sand Diego Comic-Con
According to Filmmaker Kevin Smith, we will finally see a trailer for the reboot of Jay an Silent bob (played by Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith himself) at the upcoming San Diego Comic-Con. He also revealed the trailer would be 2 minutes and 30 seconds and the movie itself would have a 1 hour and 45 second run time.
For fans of his older films such as Dogma and Chasing Amy this has been a long time coming as the movie was announced quite some time ago as Clerks 3 fell through. I for one look forward to this, so good luck 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/
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.

There will reportedly be a bunch of extras including an alternate opening. So fans will have a lot to look forward to. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Fallen (2016)
Fallen is the movie adaptation of the book by Lauren Kate of the same name. The movie however was met with some pretty horrible reviews. 7% on Rotten Tomatoes for example. The book however, the first in a series of 5 books (if you include the short Valentines Day novel)
The story is about a girl that is resurrected every 17 years only to fall in love with a fallen angel, kiss him and die just to repeat the process. This has gone on ever since the war between God and Lucifer when Danial fell in love with a human and refused to choose sides in the battle. Jealous of this new found love, Lucifer cursed them to be stuck on Earth forever to repeat the process.
Danial has tried it all to break this cycle to no avail. The movie comes off very Twilight like, except somehow not as good. Te acting isn’t great, the lighting isn’t all that good and most of the characters are pretty much boring as hell. The only entertaining part of this is Luce and the story itself is interesting. I rarely say this sort of thing tho, but just go read the books. For starters, the movie leaves you hanging pretty much and I highly doubt the other books ever get movies. They were also done much better. So skip this one, and get some reading done. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Endgame Re-release Needs Less Than $39 Million to Beat Avatar
With each passing day Endgame makes less and less money and the dream of beating Avatar slips further and further away, sort of. On June 28th a new version of Avengers Endgame will release with extra footage in hopes of making that extra money to topple the giant that is Avatar, the leading movie in film history when it comes to making bank.
Kevin Feige was pretty clear to say tho, this is NOT an extended cut. If you stick around after the movie there will be a deleted scene, some surprises and a small tribute. Admittedly this was probably the plan from the beginning, but hey I guess whatever gets the ball across the goal line right? Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Tom Hardy Confirmed for Venom 2
To the surprise of nobody, despite the negative reviews Venom is getting a sequel after a massive $855 million box office run, which actually makes it the most successful super hero origin story of all time at that time.It could be debated that Aquaman took that title, but that depends if on how you view that movie and personally I would count that as the king of origin movies.
With the confirmation of that sequel tho, is that it is now also confirmed Tom Hardy will be back as Venom. Even more surprising tho is Venom screenwriter said back in December that a Venom Spider-man movie wasn’t “impossible” and Kevin Feige recently states that it would probably be up to Sony to bring the characters together. So while it is probably bad for your health to hold your breath on that one, stranger things have happened. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
