The Walking Dead Needs an Adrenaline Boost
The big selling point with The Walking Dead these past few years has its perpetual sense of unpredictability. Ever since the conclusion of “All Out War,” the lines between good and evil have blurred significantly. The series is no longer just a story of survival, but one of humanity returning from the brink and trying to restore civilization in a world where the dead still roam. But that unpredictability can only carry the book so far. At some point The Walking Dead needs a clear, lasting conflict to take shape. And even after all these months, the Commonwealth storyline is failing to achieve that goal.
Disney Reportedly Unlikely to Rehire James Gunn
Disney is reportedly unlikely to rehire James Gunn as the director of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, which may cause the movie to be postponed.

MoviePass CEO Issues Apology, Promises Changes
MoviePass has had a rough go of it as of late, with the movie subscription service suffering widespread outages last week followed by questions about it potentially going out of business. But in a letter to subscribers, CEO Mitch Lowe issued an apology and promised that changes are on the way.
Lowe said his first priority was issuing a personal apology “for the inconsistencies and unreliability” subscribers have had to deal with as of late. He added that he regrets a failure to address these issues sooner but promised that changes were already in place to help MoviePass continue offering its theater-going subscription service.
F’ Batman?! All the Other Times Batman and Robin Broke Up
Batman and Robin may have the single most iconic partnership in the superhero world, but their relationship isn’t all sunshine and roses. Take the new trailer for the live-action Titans series, for example. When Robin isn’t smashing his boot of justice into evil’s neck, he’s shocking audiences everywhere by saying “F*** Batman!”
That may be a particularly extreme case of Batman and Robin’s relationship turning sour, but there’s definitely a precedent here. Between his antisocial personality and his habit of letting sidekicks die on the job, Batman has had quite a few nasty breakups over the years. Here are the most memorable cases in DC’s comics, TV shows and movies.
Madden NFL 19 Review
Madden NFL 19 keeps its focus where it belongs: its moment-to-moment gameplay. This year’s entry comes with the promise of improved player motion, a more intimate franchise experience, and the return of two hometown heroes as the Longshot story continues with a new chapter.
But does Madden ‘19 have the balance needed to stay between the uprights and keep both newcomers and long-time Madden fans happy? In short: Yes, yes it does.
In a surprisingly – yet welcomed – straight-forward call, Real Player Motion is touted as the marquee gameplay enhancement and allows more control in game-changing situations. In year two of the series’ move to the Frostbite engine, it’s apparent the development team is learning how to maximize the technology.
Original Grudge Movie Producer Sues Makers of Upcoming Reboot
Producer of the original Japanese Grudge franchise Ju-on, Taja Ichise, has filed a breach of contract suit against the upcoming Sony remake.
Ichise is claiming that Good Universe refused to allow him a producer’s credit he upcoming film, despite the fact that the original contract said the film production company could have the rights to the franchise on the condition it included said credit.
Ichise produced the original Ju-On in 2002, which was adapted in 2004 in a Sarah Michelle-Gellar starring American remake. The upcoming reboot will be based on the 2004 film and will be produced by Sam Raimi. The movie will star Demian Bichir (The Hateful Eight) and Andrea Riseborough (Battle of the Sexes), and Nicolas Pesce will direct from a script he wrote.
Magic: The Gathering Creator’s New Game Will Sell Billions of Unique Decks
On Wednesday at Gen Con 2018, Fantasy Flight Games revealed the newest card game from legendary Magic: The Gathering creator Richard Garfield, KeyForge.
Similar to Magic, KeyForge is a 1v1 competitive card game, but instead of using the traditional ‘Trading Card Game’ format where you build a deck out of randomized booster packs, or the ‘Living Card Game’ format where you get all of the cards outright and then buy full expansion sets later, KeyForge will use an entirely new format called a ‘Unique Deck Game’.
What that means is that players will buy a premade 36-card deck that is a completely unique combination of cards from the game. No other deck in the world will be exactly like it, and it can’t be altered or customized in any way, even having its own unique card back and name to distinguish the cards in it.
