The Flash Season 7 Episode 3 Review Mother

This THe Flash review contains spoilers. The Flash Season 7 Episode 3 When we initially learned that the last three episodes of The Flash’s Season 6 would be rolled over into its seventh, some of us (read: me) were hopeful that it might serve as an impetus to rethink Season 7 entirely and build these additional installments into some sort of larger story that worked as a cohesive whole. But, unfortunately, it’s very obvious that “Mother” was meant to serve as The Flash’s sixth season finale – for all the good and ill that designation entails....

The Hallow Review

With the pumpkins now rotting on the pavement, here’s a new horror that just missed the boat. Spooky forests home to dark secrets, flinty locals warning newcomers that they shouldn’t have come here with their fancy city ways, the whole works. If this makes The Hallow sound formulaic, that’s because a lot of horror is, if you ask me. But these films live or die by whether they have any ideas to transcend their established framework, and there’s a bagful here....

The Hottest Reviews Of The Week December 7 13 2020

There are some excellent video games that had the misfortune of being released alongside high-profile titles and were buried as a result. Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age released close to Marvel’s Spider-Man, while Katamari Damacy REROLL released on the same day as Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. This could be the same fate that awaits the games released alongside Cyberpunk 2077, which is why so many other titles decided to push their release back to 2021, in order to escape the wrath of Night City....

The Incredible Adventures Of Van Helsing Review

Having been available on PC and other consoles for some time, The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing is now available to Xbox One players — and is being offered for free this month via Games with Gold.

The Last Kingdom Netflix Movie Title Calls Back To A Book Prophecy

When Carnival Films adapted Death of Kings (the sixth book in Bernard Cornwell’s Saxon Stories series) they – probably wisely – left out a scene in which Uhtred of Bebbanburg is drugged in a witch’s cave and sexually assaulted by a goddess of the earth. Season three had plenty going on without that little adventure. King Alfred was dying, Uhtred was cursed, Danish war lord Bloodhair was doing what Danish war lords do and vowing to make the streets run with Saxon blood… Add in seer Skade running around the place stabbing priests and the last thing required was the complication of yet another prophetess....

The Legacy Of Invasion Of The Body Snatchers

The Body Snatchers, Jack Finney’s novel about an insidious and silent alien invasion that threatens to turn the world’s population into a horde of emotionless, single-minded replicant drones, was published in 1955 after starting life as a magazine serial. Although inspired, at least in part, by Robert Heinlein’s 1951 novel The Puppetmasters and possibly William Cameron Menzies’ 1953 Invaders from Mars, Finney’s novel took a much darker tone and employed a handful of standard noirish elements, which left the story open to countless social and political interpretations....

The Long History Of Fallout New Vegas 2 Rumors

Fallout: New Vegas 2 has been rumored to be in development ever since the first game released back in 2010. The game could be a direct sequel to the events of the first game, but the title could also be used to refer to another spin-off and potentially third-party Fallout game as a spiritual successor. Some of the rumors have the game being developed by a third-party developer rather than Bethesda Game Studios, just as the original game was developed by Obsidian Entertainment....

The Mandalorian S Virtual Set Tech May Be Taking Hollywood By Storm

The Mandalorian has made waves among long time Star Wars fans and new viewers alike ever since its premiere. For some, its popularity comes from the stories it tells. For others, it is absolutely because of their love of Baby Yoda. But one aspect that captured the attention of many in the industry was Industrial Light & Magic’s (ILM) groundbreaking virtual set technology known as “Stagecraft.” Now, it looks like Sony may be helping bring that tech to the mainstream....

Star Wars Battlefront 2 Ama Coming To Reddit

In the last 48 hours, the Internet has been in an uproar over EA’s business model in Star Wars Battlefront 2.

Steal The Identities Of Enemies And Transform Into A Demon In Necrofugitive

Horror fans partial to platformers should take note of the 2D action game Necrofugitive - for its eye-catching art style and intriguing title. Its premise is a straightforward one, but how you progress will be a showstopper for gore-seekers. From its opening gameplay, Necrofugitive immediately brings Blasphemous to mind - despite its more muted color palette. Developed by Black Garden Studios, you will play shapeshifting fugitive the Prisoner, the last survivor of The Cult of Skoroz, on the run from bounty hunters and bannermen....

Surprisingly Link S Awakening Is Preferred Over A Link To The Past By Zelda Series Directors

For many fans of The Legend of Zelda series, the best games in the franchise are difficult to pinpoint, though in that difficulty, one incredibly frequent choice for the best game is The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Despite this consensus, Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma and director Takashi Tezuka believe that Link’s Awakening, now being remade for the Nintendo Switch, is superior to Zelda’s premier SNES title....
