Another week, another meltdown over Xbox exclusives and "WhY ShOuLd I bUy An XbOx", all because Phil continues to say the same thing over and over for years. We also got confirmation that the Mass Effect Television show is full steam ahead! Lets hope Amazon repeats the magic it did with Fallout.

HI Peanut! Boy was that Deadpool and Wolverine trailer just glorious. Just inject it straight into my corneas. Also, Embracer group was apparently not too big to fail, as they are splitting into 3 sperate companies. Meta announces new partnerships for the quest, and a price drop for the Quest 2. Jack Black is unsurprisingly playing Steve in the Minecraft movie, Sony wants to buy Paramount, and Zoolander 2 was a wake up call for Ben Stiller. That and more, come take a listen.

Also Popeye, The Cat in the Hat, and The Never Ending Story are all making some kind of comeback, The Acolyte gets its first trailer, and Dune Pt. 2 continues to sizzle as the box office.
