Spider-Man: Brand New Day Reveal Hints at the MCU’s New Hulkbuster Replacement

Spider-Man’s upcoming appearance in Brand New Day will include team-ups with some iconic heroes. Fans can expect to see Jon Bernthal as The Punisher, bringing a dynamic from the comics to the screen for the first time in a film. Mark Ruffalo will also reprise his role as Bruce Banner, transforming into The Hulk. Recent marketing materials reveal The Hulk will be referred to as “Savage Hulk” in the movie, and hints suggest a possible strategy for Spider-Man to defeat him.

Spider-Noir is Proof There’s Way More to Spider-Man Than the MCU (Review)

Despite claiming it’s not connected, Spider-Noir feels very much like a spin-off of Sony’s excellent Spider-Verse animated films. Nicolas Cage plays a character almost identical to his Spider-Verse counterpart – same comic book origins, costume, voice, style, and overall mood. The show immediately emphasizes that its universe is different, and that’s all that matters, likely due to licensing issues. Ultimately, it shares so many similarities with the Spider-Verse version that it might as well be considered part of that world, and it’s a surprisingly smart and welcome addition to the broader Spider-Man universe.

The Best N64 Shooter Released 26 Years Ago, but the Series Is Dead Now

Man, I still think about Perfect Dark all the time. It came out way back on May 22, 2000, and Rare really knocked it out of the park. For me, it’s still the best shooter on the Nintendo 64, even better than GoldenEye 007. GoldenEye was amazing for its time, but Perfect Dark took everything and just made it better. The enemies were smarter, the guns felt great, multiplayer was way more in-depth, and the story was just more ambitious overall. It’s a shame, though, because it feels like the series is totally stalled out. They were working on a reboot, but that got canceled, which was a huge bummer. Still, with some of the recent changes happening at Xbox, I’m holding onto a little bit of hope that we might see something new someday.

5 Best Fantasy Books To Read While Waiting for The Doors of Stone, the 3rd Kingkiller Chronicle Novel

Patrick Rothfuss’s first novel, The Name of the Wind, came out in 2007 and quickly became a bestseller, winning the Quill Award. The sequel, The Wise Man’s Fear, released in 2011, also topped the New York Times bestseller list and earned the David Gemmell Legend Award. However, fans have been waiting a long time for the third and final book, The Doors of Stone, as its release date remains unknown. A television adaptation has also stalled; although Lionsgate acquired the rights in 2015 with Lin-Manuel Miranda involved, the project is currently on hold after Showtime decided not to move forward with it in 2022. Luckily, readers who have enjoyed the first two books can find other fantasy novels to read while they wait.

10 Villains DC Comics Nailed From the Beginning

As a film fan, I’ve noticed villains have really evolved, and honestly, that’s partly because filmmaking itself has gotten better. But the first time we saw these particular baddies, they were instantly iconic. They just had that special something, and they really raised the bar for every villain that followed. DC Comics absolutely knocked it out of the park with these ten – they created characters that set the template for pretty much any villain archetype you can imagine.

Check out the new trailer below!

Nintendo Switch Exclusive Game Beats Pragmata and Crimson Desert to #1 Best-Selling Video Game of April

According to Circana, the best-selling video game in the US right now is Nintendo’s Tomodachi Life Living the Dream, which launched exclusively for the Nintendo Switch on April 16th. Interestingly, it hasn’t been released for the newer Nintendo console, despite the Switch being backward compatible. This is the third game in the Tomodachi series, which began with Tomodachi Collection on the Nintendo DS in 2009 and continued with Tomodachi Life on the 3DS in 2013. The first two games sold around 10 million copies, a strong performance, but Tomodachi Life Living the Dream seems to be exceeding expectations by currently leading monthly sales, even against more prominent titles.
