Its too late now, of course, since Legendary had the trailer taken down. Hype is an interesting part of todays Internet-based geek culture. It gives us all something to dream, think, theorycraft, and speculate about. Its kind of like what happens when a new expansion for a certain multi-million player MMORPG is announced. Forums and social media explode with hype and speculation. Blizzard announcedWorld of Warcrafts next expansionentitledLegionearlier this month during Gamescom....

Fury Road has revitalised Mad Max, and now the Aussie icon returns for more in his self-titled videogame… I say this asMad Maxunfortunately falls foul here, despite being a decent game. Im fairly certain which way gamers with limited budgets will go. Stripped of his car, Max soon meets the equally name-challenged, Chumbucket. To do this, youll require fuel, which has to be scavenged around the world too. Its well-handled, and the addition of using Chumbucket as your wingman is great....

The new Mad Max game offers vehicular combat and scavenging that will leave you in the dust. Here is our review! Thats really all there is to it for a long while. Landing quick punches and performing perfect parries is the name of the game here. The other main draw ofMad Maxis the gritty vehicular combat. Joe Jasko is a game critic. Rating: 3.5 out of 5

Star Wars: Aftermath has finally arrived, introducing a whole new timeline to the Star Wars universe! The first canon story outsideThe Clone Warswas the comic seriesSon of Dathomir, an extension of the animated series. The first canon novel, appropriately enough namedA New Dawn, tied into theStar Wars Rebelstelevision series. Do the New Republic and the Empire become the Resistance and the First Order? Is it even that simple? How different will the new Expanded Universe be from the one fans know and love?...

Co-writer and director Danny Stack most recently worked on Thunderbirds Are Go! But he’s been rather busy over the last year… Danny Stack was a man on a mission. He wanted to make a British family movie, aimed at the big screen, on a tight budget. Without further ado, over to Danny… Who Killed Nelson Nutmeg? A year after wrap, the film is set to have its world premiere at the London Film Festival....

Hes directed hit movies, hes produced them, hes written books, and hes also been penning screenplays. For Kenneth BranaghsCinderellamovie, and for the upcomingRogue One: A Star Wars Story. AsCinderellaarrives on disc, he spared us some time for a chat… In the interviews leading up toCinderellas release, you talked a lot about the genesis of the film. That a project that youd sunk so much into, across two directors, was finding such an audience?...

Disney Infinity 3.0 introduces Star Wars to the series with a fantastic new adventure and set of characters! Could I team up theStar Warsgang with the Guardians of the Galaxy? What would that adventure look like? You might even hate yourself a little for laughing. These sections are often the most entertaining in the game, with chaotic dogfights with Viper droids to boot. Objectives in space vary from protecting a Republic cruiser to saving a frigate from a debris field....

Each approach has positives and negatives, but how if at all does it affect the stories? Series 6 had two finales, both of which ended on a cliffhanger. So, more cliffhangers, more excitement? A great cliffhanger needs a great resolution, and some threads of the Silence arc ended better than others. In the following series, Claras character didnt fully emerge from under The Impossible Girl arc. There was a feeling of treading water, maintaining a holding pattern until the fireworks of the anniversary episodes....

McCarthy retraces the sex-abuse investigation in a tremendously gripping way with remarkable simplicity. During the investigation, the Church wants to make people believe it is just a few bad apples. The Church had been controlling everything and also managed to have legal documents removed from court. For some lawsuits, the Church made settlements to keep the matter quiet. The entire cast performs with introspective poise. The greatest protagonist is the case....

We chatted to actor Timothy V. Murphy, who plays gangster Osip in True Detective’s second season… We talked to him about his role in the second season ofTrue Detectiveand the forthcoming seriesThe Bastard Executioner… So, True Detective, quite a big show to get involved with? Theres always pressure because the first one had been such a success. I didnt feel any pressure on myself as an actor. But you could feel the pressure on at times....

The other basics also still apply for this Frank Martin. However, the similarities to the original end there. Watching Angelina Jolie wield weaponry and strut her stuff in thrillers such asSaltorWantedevokes that sense without uttering a word. But here the basic premise of the series doesnt get the unraveling that makes the character so appealing. This Frank never really makes that journey. The chase scenes do not come to the rescue either....
