Mortal Kombat: Armageddon felt like an end to everything the series had been building towards for many years, literally funneling every character – from elder gods to goofy guest stars – into a massive meat grinder, letting that bloody paste congeal before rebooting the franchise half a decade later. 2006 wasn’t what you’d call a […]
James McAvoy may be terrifying us all this weekend as “The Beast” in M. Night Shyamalan’s Glass, but he’ll be the one getting terrorized later this year in IT: Chapter Two. On “Good Morning America” today, McAvoy touched briefly upon his experience on the set last year, admitting that Bill Skarsgård legit freaked him out […]
NetherRealm Studios held their big reveal event for Mortal Kombat 11 today and sliced open a whole steaming heap of information about it in the process. It kicked off with a gameplay reveal trailer. It was of course, pretty damn gory. Former UFC star and current WWE Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey was confirmed to […]
Glass picks up shortly after the conclusion of Split, with Unbreakable’s David Dunn (Bruce Willis) in pursuit of The Beast before he can kill again. M.

Variety reports that Reitman, whose father, Ivan, directed the first two Ghostbusters movies, has also co-written a screenplay […]
Note: minor spoilers ahead. I won’t ruin major plot elements. If you have played Undertale (if you didn’t, please stop reading right now and go play it), you may have come through some interesting feelings. It can be a cheerful journey most of the time, with likable characters and silly jokes here and there, even […]
Thanks to a Czech retailer, we learned back in August that Ridley Scott’s Alien would be released in the upgraded 4K Ultra HD format this year, and via AvP Galaxy we now know that the 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray release will be arriving in the UK on April 1st, 2019. No other info is […]
One of the best video game franchises is Uncharted, which is like a modern-day Indiana Jones with even more environment-embedded puzzles. A film adaptation has been in the works for years and it’s become one of the most troubled adaptations in Hollywood. Thankfully, there’s some positive movement as Variety reports that Dan Trachtenberg, who broke […]
Sony Pictures (Columbia Pictures and Screen Gems) has owned the January genre release for 15 years now, especially with their Underworld and Resident Evil franchises. It appears that Escape Room could become their next big franchise, assuming the international numbers begin to trickle in heavier than in the first two weeks. The Adam Robitel-directed thriller has […]
