10 Years Later, Avengers: Doomsday Is Officially Reinventing the MCU’s Civil War

Everyone knows Avengers: Doomsday will have more Marvel movie stars in one film than ever before (and that’s no accident!). But what’s still unclear is how the story will bring all these characters together and whether the movie will be truly meaningful and connect with viewers. Interestingly, the directors, the Russo brothers, have revealed that Doomsday and Civil War will actually share similar underlying themes, just presented in different ways.

One Piece Director Shares Spicy Take on Black Clover Finale

Thurlow, who started reading the Black Clover manga last October, has now finished the entire series by Yuki Tabata. He recently shared his thoughts on the ending, describing it as “okay, not bad, not great, but it worked.” While he found the ending generally satisfying and appreciated that all plotlines were resolved and most characters received closure, he jokingly stated he’d be disappointed if there wasn’t an additional chapter showing a romantic relationship between Asta and Noelle. He particularly liked that the series made good use of its entire cast of characters, even in the final chapter.

New PlayStation Game Leaks Ahead of State of Play

This week, Sony trademarked the name “Break In” in the US and Europe. While we don’t know exactly what it is yet, the filing indicates it’s video game software, confirming it’s a new game coming from PlayStation.

Nintendo Switch Exclusive Remake of 1994 SNES Game Announced

Developer Sunsoft and publisher Gravity Games Arise are releasing a remake of a classic SNES game called Hashire Hebereke: EX on September 3rd. The original Hashire Hebereke never officially came to North America or Europe, meaning most Western Nintendo fans are likely unaware of it. To play the original, you would have needed to import a Japanese copy of the game and be able to read Japanese, making it a rare and obscure title. As a result, very few Nintendo fans in the West even knew the game existed.

Netflix Just Released its Stranger Things Replacement (& It Already Has a Near-Perfect Score)

Netflix is hoping to recapture the magic of Stranger Things with its new series, The Boroughs, created by Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews. Instead of focusing on kids solving a mystery, this 8-episode show centers on a group of seniors in their 60s and 70s who become entangled in a strange and unsettling secret within their seemingly idyllic retirement community. The series features deaths, monsters, and a complex conspiracy, clearly drawing inspiration from the same Steven Spielberg and Stephen King influences that made Stranger Things a hit – the Duffer Brothers are even involved as executive producers. It’s a strong show – I gave it 4 stars in my review – and critics agree, with a 92% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
