POP MART is celebrating 10 years of its popular THE MONSTERS series with an exciting new collaboration! They’re bringing together the worlds of LABUBU and Sanrio, two incredibly popular character franchises.
The broadcast will show the final trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. It won’t include any details about video games.
Look, “One More Day” has always been a really divisive story, but as someone who’s dug deep into its origins, I think there’s a side to it people often miss. Those of us who truly dislike it have spent time researching how it came to be, and it’s fascinating to learn just how many big-name Marvel creators had a hand in it – including Mark Millar. He joined Marvel in 2000 and quickly became a major force. He was a big brainstorming contributor – for instance, he’s the one who pushed for Wolverine and Spider-Man to join the Avengers, essentially trying to make that team more like DC’s Justice League. And that wasn’t a one-off; he brought in a lot of DC-style thinking that really shaped “One More Day” into the story we all know – and often argue about!
Some movie franchises lack a consistent creative vision – a key person who oversees each sequel and ensures everything fits together. While not essential – the recent Planet of the Apes films, for example, didn’t harm the originals – this consistency is really important for maintaining a cohesive story. Without it, franchises can become so disjointed that new installments feel completely unrelated to what came before, effectively breaking the established storyline. These are prime examples of when a movie series loses its way.
The arcade game Alien vs. Predator came out shortly after the SNES version, but the two games are very different. This arcade title is a beat ‘em up where players choose from four characters – two Predators (Warrior and Hunter), and two cyborgs: Maj. Dutch Schaefer (based on Arnold Schwarzenegger’s character from Predator) and Lt. Linn Kurosawa. Each character has unique moves and powers, and this arcade game proved to be much more successful than the SNES version.
Though created outside the US, the sci-fi series Dark gained a huge following with its intriguing ideas and complex plot, much like shows such as Lost and From. The creators of Dark, Jantje Friese and Baran bo Odar, are now working on a new series for Netflix. This show won’t be a continuation of Dark, but it will bring back some of the original cast, including Lisa Vicari. The new series, which doesn’t have a title yet, is based on a particularly unsettling book.
Recently, there’s been talk that Sony might delay the release of its next gaming console, possibly until 2028 or even later. Some readers believe Sony should wait until 2030, arguing that the PlayStation 5 still has a lot to offer.
Soulmask first launched in Early Access on May 31, 2024.
The internal setups of the next PlayStation (Magnus and Orion) differ in a few ways. The Orion model (PS6) is expected to have a graphics processor with 54 RDNA 5 compute units and a CPU with 8 standard Zen 6 cores plus 2 low-power Zen 6 cores specifically for running the operating system. According to sources, this dedicated OS processing should give games a 20% performance boost compared to the PS5, which didn’t have these dedicated cores. Magnus (Project Helix) takes a different approach, using up to 3 Zen 6 cores alongside 8 Zen 6c cores for its CPU. Its graphics processor will feature 68 RDNA 5 compute units, and it doesn’t appear to include the low-power cores found in the Orion model.
The main villain, played by Antony Starr, is the character who needs to die in the final season of The Boys. The entire series has been focused on taking him down, and unless they simply freeze him – which isn’t a guaranteed solution – there doesn’t seem to be another way to conclude his story. It makes sense that the show is now hinting at his defeat before the new season premieres on April 8th. The trailer offers some clues about who will ultimately be responsible, though The Boys is known for its unexpected twists. Be warned: the following contains spoilers based on the comic book’s ending.
