‘Logan’ director confirms he’s working on an ‘X-23’ movie script because fucking of course
Logan was a wonderful remix of The Road. Or The Last of Us. Or whatever. One of the highlights of the beautiful misery was X-23. So, it makes perfect sense to give the character her own movie.
‘Phantom Thread’ Trailer: You Can Sew Almost Anything Into The Canvass of a Coat
Man. I read the synopsis for Phantom Thread, the latest collaboration between writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson and actor Daniel Day-Lewis, and was like. No thanks. But then I watched the trailer, and I guess I didn’t know what else I was expecting, but I was instantly sold.
‘Star Trek: Discovery’ is getting a second season. It continues to, like, live long, and yadda blah
Star Trek: Discovery is getting a second season, friends! I honestly don’t know how people feel about the show, and I’m not watching it myself. But! I hope this excites a lot of people. Genuinely.
‘Halo 3’ and other Xbox 360 games getting enhanced for the Xbox One X
Man. Microsoft ain’t fucking around with their insanely opulent, excessively powerful console. The company has announced they’re not just enhancing some XB1 games for the console. No sir. No ma’am. Perhaps in an effort to justify throwing $500 at the console, the company is also going to be enhancing select Xbox 360 games.
The US is getting that sexy ass SNES-themed Nintendo 3DS XL, too
I don’t fuck with themed consoles *or* handhelds, but if I did? I would be all over this glorious fetish object.
Monday Morning Commute: Leggo My Fuckin’ Eggo
This is Monday Morning Commute! The column where we share, oh do we share, the various arts and miscellanies that are looking forward to in a given week. Speaking of this week?
Ohhh, we got ourselves a week, friends.
Ohhh, we got ourselves a panoply of tasty pop culture treats dropping this week, friends.
Well, okay. Not like, that many. But like, the ones that are arriving?
They’re certainly considerable for yours truly. Two follow-ups to a couple of personal favorites. The two of them? They’re enough to grease the rock this week, aid in my pushing of it up the hill.
So let’s get into it. Let us dive in.
SNES Saturdays #2 – Bateman’s Dad’s Balls and Barrel Decimation
I know it’s been quiet for a fucking *minute* here on the Space-Ship Omega. Apologies! Apologies. In the meantime, check out the second official SNES Saturdays from Bateman and me. We’re just being a couple of garbage lords. Talking a lot about Freud, Bateman’s Dad’s balls, and other miscellany garbage.
Like, share, subscribe, whatever, yadda yadda on YouTube and Twitch.
‘The Punisher’ Trailer: Frank Castle’s Revenge Tour Drops November 17
I ain’t watching this new trailer for The Punisher, cause I’m *way* fucking in on the show. That said, I’m pretty goddamn stoked that we know it’ll finally be arriving. November 17.
Alison Brie shares ‘GLOW’ season 2 set photo. It is a welcome neon light in these dark times
GLOW may be my damn favorite piece of 2017 pop culture. It had everything, my friends. Took place in the 1980s, centered on wrestling, starred Alison Brie, and was packed with insight and pathos. Now the gang seems to be back together, on that filming the second season grind.
EA shutting down Visceral Games and cancelling their ‘Star Wars’ game because they are fucking Sewer Fluid
Fucking Electronic Arts, dude. They’ve shuttered Visceral Games, the minds behind Dead Space, who were until recently working on a Star Wars game. Not only that, but the project was being shepherded by Amy Hennig, who made her reputation on the fucking Uncharted franchise.
