The Total War series has explored many different eras and locations, but it hasn’t returned to the medieval period since 2006. That’s about to change with the announcement of Total War: Medieval III. After so many years and improvements to the game, this is fantastic news! However, it will still take some time before the game is released.

There’s a lot to enjoy right away, and the game rewards players for their time and effort.

This led to a playful superstition that Star Trek movies only succeed when they’re the even-numbered installments, and subsequent films haven’t really disproven it.

Quentin Tarantino has often stated he plans to make ten films and then retire, and a key part of that plan is considering Kill Bill as a single movie. However, it was released in two parts – Volume 1 and Volume 2 – and is often listed as two separate films on sites like IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes. This has led to debate about whether Kill Bill truly counts as one film, or if Tarantino has already completed his ten-film goal. Now, Tarantino has definitively clarified the situation.
Today marks the 27th anniversary of a truly pivotal episode of the series.
