Tom Hanks as Mr. Rogers

Expected to arrive in October of 2019, the movie of Mr. Rogers starring Tom Hanks and this is the first look. I won’t lie, as I was scrolling around and saw this I actually thought it was just an old picture of the man himself. Granted it isn’t perfect but just scrolling though it’s a close match. I don’t know much about the biopic, but Rolling Stone has more. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods be your neighbor.

Fortnite Season 6

Fortnite Season 6 is upon us, and as always it has brought a whole host of new things. The verge  has a more complete list, but this one includes many Halloween style items. It is also aptly named Darkness Rises. The new season also brings a haunted castle.

It is actually kind of strange, I first played Fortnite when it was free to play and well before it really took off. I didn’t much care for it then and I am not a huge fan now, it is just odd to see how huge it has become after these 6 seasons. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Telltale Games Facing Class Action Lawsuit

download (1)

It hasn’t really been a good week for Telltale games. First their doors get slammed shut and face a ton of backlash for the cancellation of many games and the reveal of their horrible management. Then it comes to light they haven’t always been nice to their employees. So much so that Gamespot and many others are now reporting they are being sued by a former employee in California. The claim is they were required to give 60 days notice prior to closing their doors and clearly failed to do so. If that is true this is a pretty open and shut case and would be more bad news for a financially destroyed company. It will be interesting to see how this turns out. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

DC has tons of movies going on, seriously a ton. Aquaman,Wonder woman, another Joker movie the works. Now Birds Of Prey, which will at least see Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn. Not much else is known but we have plenty of time with the February 7th 2020. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Telltale Games Closing

telltale

By now we have all heard that Telltale Games is closing. They have a small crew staying to reportedly finish up a Netflix project and everything else is cancelled. According to many this will include the long-awaited final season of The Walking Dead. The sad part of this is after many poor management decisions being tossed out by former employees and even some current ones fans of the series, many that bought the season pass will probably never get to see the end of an adventure they started back in 2012.

I do have to wonder tho if this is partly their own fault. While not all of their games were great most were pretty solid, but they made so many pretty quick it seems and a lot of people got pretty sick of them. Either way, sadly we may never get to see the end of a series many people, including myself have waited years to see. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Child’s Play Creator Less Than Happy With New Chucky

Chucky-from-Childs-Play-reboot

Recently the Child’s Play Reboot started filming. and creator Don Mancini doesn’t seem to happy. You can see his Twitter post by clicking the link. He isn’t the only one tho. The rumored new plot also seems quite odd. The origin story itself has been completely wiped and been replaced with a guy killing himself after reprogramming it. The odd part of this is the original line of movies will still be going on with Don. See one studio, MGM, holds the rights to the original movie. Universal owns the rights to the sequel. This is how the Reboot can happen while the sequel can keep going.

Personally I am not looking forward to the reboot, but the sequels haven’t exactly been great recently either. We shall see tho, best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Supernatural Season 11

And here we are, season 11 of Supernatural. We are catching up fast guys, I may need a new show soon. This is the season where we get to see the showdown between Amara and Chuck. This can also be known a the Brother/Sister showdown between God and his sister.

The season is on and off in terms of excitement. In terms of lore and back story however there is a lot to unpack and its a great time to do it. This season also bounces back and forth between hunting regular monsters and the main story dealing with Amara herself.

You won’t run into the big G himself until about episode 20, from there things move pretty quick. I won’t spoil any of those things for you but that is where season 11 goes from on and off to simply amazing. At one point the end seems a bit meh only to discover it isn’t even the end which honestly I liked. This season tho definitely was an interesting one in terms of story. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Space Jam 2

Unfortunately for many the joke that Jordan is better than Lebron because Lebron never helped the Looney Tunes save the world is about to end. The long since rumored Space James 2 is no longer a rumor, but is a fact. According to Hollywood Reporter James and Ryan Coogler (director of Black Panther) will be setting out to make the world a better place, through basketball. Personally I am hoping for a Jordan cameo of some sort. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

The Death of Dead Rising 5

It was recently reported by Screen Rant that the Vancouver Capcom studio will be closing, and part of that closing will be taking Dead Rising 5 with it. The last iteration was met with mixed reviews and five seemed to have been meant to largely ignore its story. Sadly we now may never know, unless of course this zombie game somehow rises from the dead. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Cleveland Browns Snap 19 game Winless streak

download

Its Christmas Eve 2016, I only have 2 kids. The Savior Gaming blog doesn’t exist. Donald Trump hadn’t become President yet ( tho he had won the election) and the Las Vegas Knights have not played a single Hockey game yet. This is just some of the things that were going on the last time The Cleveland Browns had won an NFL football game (for my overseas readers that is American Football) 18 games straight they had lost. Then the tie the Pittsburgh Steelers. Cleveland celebrated like they had won the Super Bowl. There were drinks, and parties. Totally serious. They had managed to stop one of the top NFL teams from beating them and were excited.

This week they played the New York Jets. The fans are excited, the team is excited. Surely they gave the Steelers a run for their money, they can beat the Jets a good but far weaker team. Right? It didn’t appear so. Late in the game the Browns were losing and it was business as usual, until it wasn’t. The Browns had tied the game.

A bit later the Jets with 9 minutes to go had retaken the lead, and this is a situation the Browns had been in many times in the past 19 games. But not this time. No this time it seems like the gaming gods themselves has written this ending. The Browns wouldn’t dominate to break this streak. No there were dropped passes and a penalty costing the Browns a game winning touchdown. The excitement and fear ended when the Browns finally took the lead, and a pair of interceptions at the end of the game let them keep it. What was last seen in Christmas Eve 2016, the Browns had won.

Now I know this is a gaming blog that covers general nerd things like movies and comics. And don’t count on me covering sports, tho I do watch them. Hell I am an Eagles fan and mock the Browns like most other football fans. This however was a story that was too good not to tell. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
