On September 6, Doctor Disrespect reappeared on streaming platforms to a live audience of more than 200,000 viewers. His stream, titled “The Truth,” saw Doctor Disrespect offering fresh insights and an extended account of his character’s defense, which includes claims about sending inappropriate texts to a minor. In a passionate outburst filled with intricate industry jargon and deeply personal revelations, Doctor Disrespect expressed his displeasure over the reputation he has garnered.

Last month saw the addition of Castlevania to Dead by Daylight’s roster of DLC characters, and it appears there’s more Castlevania content in store. Recenty, Behaviour Interactive revealed that when the Lights Out game mode comes back, it will have a unique Castlevania spin with a new item, the Candelabra, being added to the Lights Out modifier. The Castlevania-themed Dead by Daylight mode is set for release on September 12th, but prior to that, we already have a sneak peek at what this game mode variation will entail and what the function of the Candelabra will be.

In the realm of anime, crossovers are relatively rare. Despite the 2020 release of a special crossover battle between Netflix’s series Baki Hanma Vs. Kengan Ashura, it’s uncommon for anime worlds to intermingle. Although Kirito and Karen Kohiruimaki from Sword Art Online have yet to star in an official crossover series, this year, an anime series is teaming up with another Isekai story. Scheduled for release in October, the poster for its second season primarily highlights LLENN, but also introduces another renowned character from the Isekai genre.

The Tim Burton sequel “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” is swiftly approaching $100 million at the box office, having earned an impressive $41 million on its opening day this past Friday. This strong start for September cinema is quite remarkable, and if the film maintains its current pace, it could potentially secure the second-best opening weekend in history for films released during early fall. The anticipation surrounding Michael Keaton’s return to the big screen couldn’t be more different from the state of the movie industry just a year ago. Back then, strikes kept actors away from promotional events, which likely impacted last year’s film releases significantly.

The world of anime is seeing a surge in popularity for sports-themed shows, with this year showcasing some of the most significant examples. For instance, “Blue Lock” recently released a successful movie, and its second season will air in October. Similarly, “Haikyu” premiered the first of two final films titled “Haikyu: The Dumpster Battle.” “The First Slam Dunk” has now made its way onto Netflix and is highly regarded by many anime enthusiasts as one of the best anime movies ever produced. Now, another sports-themed anime show is making a splash on Netflix and has unveiled a new trailer for the upcoming “Blue Box,” a unique story that sets itself apart within the genre.

The reasons behind the absence of the Avengers in live-action since “Avengers: Endgame” can be traced back to the words of a Marvel villain, Quentin Beck (played by Jake Gyllenhaal) in “Spider-Man: Far From Home.” He aimed to create a threat on an Avengers scale to gain power. As we stand nearly five years after that movie, no incident has been considered significant enough to reunite Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. In a sense, Mysterio accurately foretold the events leading up to “Avengers: Doomsday” and “Avengers: Secret Wars.” Whatever calamity befalls the Earth must be catastrophic in scale to bring the Avengers together once more.
