Acolyte Star Wars: The Acolyte: The Power of Many… Missed Opportunities. Here are my thoughts on The Acolyte (Warning – spoilers!) So, the last episode dropped and after eight weeks of slogging through Star Wars: The Acolyte, I figured it is time to share my thoughts on the show. Overall while I did not care for the series, there were aspects of this show I did appreciate. There has been a lot of online hate leveled at the show, its cast, its writers, and its showrunner Leslye Headland. Some of the complaints I agree with, while others I think are nitpicking and prompted by statements that Headland and Stenberg have made. Read More...

Hulu Hulu is bringing more massive fun to SDCC with the announcement of Hulu Animayhem’s Factory this year Even more of the SDCC fun is gearing up for next week with the latest showing of Hulu Animayhem’s Factory.

Last year, they brought the Planet Express building to life along with many of the other animated shows on Hulu, and at SDCC 2024, they are coming hard by bringing us all the Slurm Factory from Futurama along with many other shows in tow. All taking place behind the convention and without the need of having a pass to experience. Read More...

Video Games A lot has gone on this week in video games. Here is a recap of what we covered in the world of video games on the site this week That certainly was a fun week with all kinds of video games and a lot of the SDCC build-up kicking off. Most of it has been some of the fun off-site events for the convention, but we do know that Marvel Rivals will have a good showing out there. I am sure we will have many other video games showing up too and we will just need to fill that time with some of the other video games we have right now. Games like Anger Foot, The Outlast Trials, and World War Z: Aftermath. Read More...

World War Z The next big update for World War Z: Aftermath is finally out so we can head to Arizona in the universe of World War Z It is time to gear up and head out with the new update out there for World War Z: Aftermath. The latest in the waves that Saber Interactive have been placing out there on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC since the game's launch. Only this one will take us into the desert of World War Z so we can face off with more of the deadliest undead that are ready to swarm us all.

Maybe before Marvel Rivals has the closed Beta test on the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC this coming July 23rd, but definitely before the game's full launch when it is ready. Read More...

The Lodge The fun of Paramount+’s The Lodge is coming back to SDCC this year and The Lodge will hold even more shows & swag within The fun of Paramount+’s The Lodge is happening once more during SDCC this year and will be bringing us a whole lot of extra fun. The experience has hopped around from last year to now and this one is looking to bring back some favorite things along with more to hype up the upcoming shows and IPs that the streaming service has. Sadly, there is now South Park, as the Las Vegas version of The Lodge had, but that does not mean we will not have a lot of fun with the other Paramount+ shows. Spongebob is having a 25th anniversary and the TMNT have a massive showing. Read More...

Adult Swim The backside of SDCC is being taken over by Adult Swim again with Adult Swim offering up a four-day pirate-themed event and panels One of the big staples of SDCC every year, at least outside of the main convention, has been the fun that Adult Swim brings every year. They have brought so much over the years to entertain not only on the show floor but also outside for those who might not be able to make it inside. This year, is not going to be anything different with Adult Swim bringing a Pirate Parrrty outside and many panels and screenings going on inside. All it is going to cost you is some time to get in line and check it out. Read More...

Anger Foot Just ahead of the launch of Anger Foot, we have a whole lot of new gameplay to get us all hyped up for Anger Foot’s launch We have had a whole lot of little looks at Anger Foot as we have been building up to the release on the PC tomorrow, July 11th, but it has not been a whole lot of gameplay in one sitting. Not a bad thing or slight against Free Lives, but for many out there, it does not build the most hype for the game. I guess that is why we are back one more time with Anger Foot with a whole lot of gameplay to enjoy. Read More...

Puppet House New gameplay for Puppet House is out to show us more of what is haunting the Puppet House when it launches out to the world It is time to creep deeper into the Puppet House and see what other horrors we will have to endure in the mix. All of which through some new gameplay that Gaming Factory has dropped out there that shows off our detective wandering about the house looking for more clues. More clues as well as more ways to escape the Puppet House once locked in. Especially as that little puppet from Hell is starting to haunt and hunt us more and more to help us end with all of our living out there. Read More...

Warhammer One of the iconic Warhammer 40,000 weapons, the Chainsword, is on display with the latest for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 If there is one iconic weapon we are going to see in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, it has to be the Chainsword. We have seen it in everything for the game and what Saber Interactive has placed out there so far, so it would be weird to not have some kind of massive highlight for it before September 9th rolls around and Focus Entertainment gives us the chase to play with it on the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. It is something that all of the Warhammer 40,000 fans want and anyone not knee-deep in the lore will want to experience in the mix. Now, we have a better look at just how we are going to be swinging this thing around in the game while also shooting up everything that moves. Read More...

Anger Foot With the launch of Anger Foot this week, there is one more developer vlog to show off the final things the team needs to kick before Anger Foot’s launch This week, we are going to see the launch of Anger Foot on the PC. That date is still set for July 11th and we all should know it well, as the teams over at Free Lives know it well currently. That will be when all of the judgment of the world will be on their latest game to see if it is holding up to what is expected. That is why we get to go behind the scenes once more for Anger Foot to check in and see just how they are all doing for it. Read More...
