I’m really intrigued by this new film, Gatto – that’s ‘cat’ in Italian, by the way! It’s set in Venice and centers around Nero, a black street cat. The story sounds fascinating – he’s basically an outsider because he can’t swim in a city full of canals, and people there are pretty superstitious about black cats. He’s all alone until he meets Rocco, a kind of feline mob boss, who takes him under his wing and tries to get him involved in the criminal underworld. It sounds like a really unique and compelling story!

This week marked the anniversary of the The Sopranos finale, an episode that caused a huge stir when it first aired and continues to be debated today. On June 10, 2007, HBO broadcast “Made in America,” the 86th and last episode of the award-winning series. What makes the finale so noteworthy isn’t just its shocking final scene, but how effectively it wrapped up the entire show, and how discussions about it have evolved over the years.

Some of the most notable marketing ploys in the MCU thus far include leaning on the conflict between Iron Man and Captain America and Captain America: Civil War, as well as the surprise event in 2014, where Feige hosted a surprise standalone event at Hollywood’s El Capitan Theatre to lay out the rest of MCU Phase 3. Those are on top of the traditional junkets and activities that involve talents. Given its track record, it’s curious why the promotional plan for Avengers: Doomsday has regularly been disappointing. From the gradual pace of the cast reveal via the five-hour chair video to the recent trailer false alarm at SXSW London, nothing has been a runaway hit when it comes to effectively promoting the movie, which is set to hit theaters in about six months.

Tim Allen recently told US Magazine that a potential reboot of Home Improvement is hitting some snags. While discussions about continuing the show are ongoing, Allen explained that disagreements between the former child stars are creating problems. He suggested a storyline focusing on their adult lives could be interesting, but admitted getting everyone on the same page is proving difficult.

One industry that few people expected Taylor Swift to have a major influence on is the collectibles market. Sure, everyone expects Taylor Swift memorabilia to be worth its weight in gold as time goes on, and her achievements grow. However, no one expected that Taylor Swift would create one of the most valuable collectibles in the world, just by having a fangirl moment of her own – but that’s exactly what just happened.

On their own, the base Fantastic Four is pretty potent, powers-wise. However, some of these other versions of the team are actually much more powerful. These are the seven most powerful versions of the Fantastic Four, introducing readers to the most powerful groups in comics.

“September has become absolutely stacked with incredible-looking games,” it wrote on Twitter. “We knew this was a possibility, but when you’re in a partner showcase as we were, dates get locked weeks in advance.” Which would certainly explain why so many titles, including Control Resonant, Silent Hill: Townfall, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, and more opted for the same day.

Warren’s report comes shortly after Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier reported that the company is planning to undergo major layoffs in July. According to Schreier, this is Xbox CEO Asha Sharma’s attempt at mitigating the revenue losses that the division will be reporting at the end of its fiscal year on June 30th. Along with job cuts, spending across various divisions, including marketing, will also be slashed. Xbox itself hasn’t made any comment about the report at the time of publishing.

Following the sad death of Berserk creator Kentaro Miura, writer Kouji Mori and Studio Gaga decided to continue the series. Mori explained that finishing this particular chapter was incredibly difficult, as it was something Miura had worked on for twenty years. He said it was challenging even knowing the story well, and required a lot of work with their editor, Shimada-san, who had been a mentor to both Miura and himself. Mori also shared the cover art for this long-awaited new chapter.

According to insider Dusk Golem, who has provided several accurate scoops in the past related to Resident Evil, this upcoming DLC for Resident Evil Requiem won’t arrive until after the newly announced Resident Evil: Veronica releases. This past week, Capcom revealed that its next Resident Evil remake would be for Resident Evil: Code Veronica, which is poised to drop in 2027. Although a specified window in 2027 wasn’t given by Capcom, reports have widely indicated that Resident Evil: Veronica will become available in the early part of the year. As a result, this would mean that the Requiem DLC feasibly wouldn’t release until mid or late 2027.
