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.

Wizards Unite Makes 300k in First 24 Hours

The title really says it all honestly. SensorTower research says the game pulled in around 400 thousand installs and 300 thousand dollars in the first day alone, meaning the game seems to be another success for the makers of Pokemon Go Niantic. The game itself is more or less a clone of Pokemon Go, even the Pokestops and such are the same in each game. This isn’t really a bad thing tho. Go give your fandom of choice a shot. 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.

Speed Forme Deoxys and Shiny Spinda Coming to Pokemon Go

For those getting a bit bored with the EX raids lately, Starting June 23rd the Speed Forme of Deoxy. This isn’t the only new Pokemon coming up tho Starting July first Spinda will be part of the field research, and this will include the Shiny Spinda variant.  At that time Latias,Latios, Kyogre and Groudon will also be the 7 day research rewards. It will be a pretty good chance for newer people to expand their Pokedex, but for long time players the only exciting news here is possibly the Shiny and Deoxys. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Halloween 2 To Start Filming in 2019

Blumhouse’s Halloween 2 was always going to be a thing after the success of last years release on the 40th anniversary of the franchise had so much success. Well, we now know it will be filming this fall to release in 2020 most likely to nobodies surprise, in October.

Last years movie had about a 10 million dollar budget and made around 255 million dollars on only a 10 million dollar budget. That is one hell of a profit margin, so a new movie is pretty much a definite. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Harry Potter: Wizards Unite

Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is now available on IOS and Android, and is the newest game from Niantic. It is a lot like Pokemon Go in the sense that you walk around the real world to different real locations. They actually seem to match up with the gyms from Pokemon Go. I haven’t gotten to check it out to much, so I am not going to review it or go into details yet, but I did want to make sure you all knew the game was available in case you some how missed it. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you greatness.

Top Gun 2

For those that aren’t aware, the movie was confirmed back in 2015 sometimes and was set to release this year, but instead will begin filming sometime this summer. The relase date as of now is June 26th 2020, so a year from now. That seems pretty far off but there is some great news. For example both Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer will be back to reprise their roles as Maverick and Iceman.

The only issue I have is after so many years is this movie necessary and does anyone even really care? The original released back in 1986, a full 32 years ago. On the bright side a lot of people will join the Air Force despite them being Navy pilots which yes, is a thing that reportedly happened. Either way, it should be interesting. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Gears Of War Movie Set in Alternate Reality

As reported by Gamesradar it turns out the Gears of War movie will be be set in an alternate reality. According to Rod Fergusson while writing the movie they new the movie would have to be a good movie first, and a Gears movie second. During the interview he did say the movie will be on Sera and certain characters would be present, so I don’t think we will be missing some of the fan favorites. I also don’t doubt we will get to see tons of Locust get mowed down. The movie might be pretty far off tho, best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

New Hunger Games Book Due Out in 2020

Back in 2008 the first hunger games book released, and the movie wasn’t far behind in 2012. It seemed like the world loved it, tho I did notice the later movies kind of fell off in my area. Now in 2020 there will be a new book, a prequel. Lionsgate is also eyeing a movie adaptation according to Joe Drake, chairman of Lionsgate. The book is as of yet untitled but it is set to release in May of 2020. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
