Stranger Things Season 5 Finally Justified Why It Took 3 Years

According to a new report from *Puck News*, each episode of *Stranger Things* Season 5 will be quite long, running between 90 and 120 minutes. This means each episode will be almost as long as a full-length movie. Because of this large scope, production is expected to take a significant amount of time, and the season is reportedly costing between $50 and $60 million per episode. With its massive story and budget, the final season of *Stranger Things* is shaping up to be one of the most ambitious TV projects ever undertaken.

10 Years Ago, the Arrowverse Hit Its Low Point (& Nearly Ruined Its Best Show)

As a huge fan of the Arrowverse, I always say *Arrow* is where it all started, and honestly, it’s still the strongest show. At least six out of its eight seasons are genuinely great! But even my favorite show has its missteps. There’s one scene in *Arrow* that was *so* bad, it almost completely ruined things – thankfully, they managed to course-correct!

Tim Burton’s Edward Scissorhands 4K Blu-ray Steelbook Is Up for Pre-Order

Disney is restoring the film with impressive new audio and visual technology – Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. While the extra features are older ones – including a behind-the-scenes look and commentary from director Tim Burton and composer Danny Elfman – the restoration itself is the highlight. The special Steelbook packaging is also noteworthy, with beautiful artwork. The cover shows Kim’s face reflected in broken glass, and the back features her reflection in Edward’s scissor blades. Inside, you’ll find a stunning illustration of Edward walking down a staircase.

PlayStation Fans Uncover Evidence That Sony Has Acquired the Studio Behind a Popular PS5 Exclusive

Okay, so I’ve been playing *Sword of the Sea* – it dropped on PS5 and Steam on August 19th, and honestly, it’s amazing. Critics and players both seem to love it – it’s sitting at an 88 on Metacritic with an 8.6 user score. It’s not a super long game, but the world is just beautiful and the surfing feels so smooth. It’s kinda weird though, there’s no actual fighting despite the name! You basically glide around on a sword, bringing water to the desert and bringing life back to the land. The developers, Giant Squid, already had a deal with PlayStation, so it’s on the PS Plus Extra catalog, which is awesome. But now everyone’s speculating that Sony might have actually *bought* them! Here’s the scoop on what’s going on.

Microsoft Game Studios Co-Founder Calls Out Microsoft’s “Greed Over Gaming” For Price Hikes

As a long-time Xbox fan, it’s really frustrating to hear someone like Fryer point out what so many of us feel – that Microsoft’s leadership seems out of touch with what gamers actually want. She hit the nail on the head when she said one of Xbox’s biggest problems right now is that the people in charge don’t seem to *get* what makes Xbox special. It feels like they aren’t listening to the community, and they keep making the same mistakes, doubling down on decisions that clearly aren’t resonating with players. It’s like all the feedback we’re giving just isn’t getting through to them anymore.
