The new film Mortal Kombat II earned $13.4 million in the U.S. and Canada last weekend, bringing its total domestic earnings to $62.2 million. Worldwide, the film has now made $101 million. These numbers are better than the 2021 Mortal Kombat film, which earned $42.3 million domestically and $84.4 million worldwide upon its release. However, Mortal Kombat II experienced a significant drop in viewership this weekend, falling to fourth place and seeing a 65% decrease in domestic earnings. Last week, it was very close to being the number one film, ultimately finishing in second place.
Grant Morrison is a remarkably innovative writer. For more than four decades, they’ve created compelling characters and complex stories, consistently expanding the boundaries of what comic books can achieve.
It’s become tricky to figure out Peter Parker’s age throughout the Marvel Cinematic Universe. There was a four-year gap between No Way Home and Brand New Day, and before that, Thanos’ snap in Avengers: Infinity War stopped Peter from aging for five years. For viewers who’ve watched all seven films, keeping track of his age can be confusing. However, the movies do offer clues to pinpoint Peter’s age at different points in the story.
Released on November 4th, 2022, Harvestella was more than just a new game for Square Enix – it marked their first foray into the increasingly popular “cozy” genre. The game uniquely combined the relaxing elements of farming simulation with action RPG battles and an engaging fantasy story. As we potentially enter a new era of Nintendo consoles and cozy games continue to grow in popularity, now seems like an ideal time for Square Enix to consider a sequel. Harvestella already offered a compelling blend of RPG depth and emotional storytelling, and a follow-up could build on these strengths to create something exceptional.
I’m so excited that the English dub of Daemons of the Shadow Realm is back on track! It originally launched this Spring with the English and Japanese versions at the same time, which was awesome. We hit a little snag with some production issues that delayed Episode 5’s dub, but thankfully, it’s now streaming on Crunchyroll! Even better, the dub is going to be released weekly from now on, so we can keep up with everything as it comes out!
Sui is now in a delicate period after a big price increase followed by a dip. The token’s price quickly rose from around $0.95 to nearly $1.42 – a gain of over 50% in under two weeks – but that upward momentum has since slowed down.
This happened after a Twitter poll jokingly asked users to choose between “Xbox” and “XBOX.” Surprisingly, 64.8% voted for “XBOX,” apparently not realizing it signaled a new brand identity. The official Twitter account and Sharma’s LinkedIn profile have both been updated to reflect this change.
The attack on Konoha should have created opportunities for many characters to grow and take on more important roles, especially as the village recovered under Danzo’s leadership and the ninja world faced new political challenges. However, the story unexpectedly became more focused. While arcs like Sasuke’s journey, the Five Kage Summit, Obito’s war, and Madara’s return were exciting, they overshadowed other potentially strong characters and limited their development.
Director Naoki Hamaguchi had stated the remake trilogy wouldn’t drastically alter the original story, so he was surprised by how much fans have speculated, particularly about the third film. He’s intentionally staying quiet about it all to keep the story’s twists a secret.
