Spider-Man swung back into theaters, and it did exactly what we knew it would. The question is though, was it good? The RAMageddon becomes the RAMpocalypse, as it comes for every component, and will continue forever. Black Ops 1 & 2 jump the sales charts, and EA goes private. Meanwhile we should have listened to Wesley when he said he was the only Blade.

Well Star Wars fans can continue to argue, because Kathleen Kennedy stepping down certainly wont stop them. But something to stop to listen to, is George RR Martin telling all to the Hollywood Reporter. Plus, Fallout Season 2 is not falling behind season 1, people just don't remember how TV works. Ubisoft decided to lay a big one on the gaming industry by cancelling another Prince of Persia game, and Netflix wants to keep WB movies on the big screen if the merger goes through. That and more on this weeks episode.

Wicked went off to see the wizard with a big box office take, and it might not be, for good. Plus Rush Hour 4 is happening, and the reason why is pretty unusual. That and more on this weeks episode.

Episode 355: George's Vision
February 26th, 2025 | 52 mins 20 secs
007, Christopher Nolan, Konami, Lucasfilm, MCU, Monolith Productions, Nickelodeon, Silent Hill, Star Wars, TV, The Dark Tower, Xbox, a24, activision, amazonmgm, andor, avatar the last airbender, avowed, ayo edebiri, barney, black ops 6, bloober team, call of duty, captain america brave new world, clayface, dave filoni, dc studios, dcu, disney+, elden ring, fable, gaming, geek, george lucas, george rr martin, harry potter, hbo, id@xbox, james bond, james gunn, john lithgow, kathleen kennedy, marvel studios, mgm, moon knight, movies, nerd, obsidian entertainment, quantic dream, spider-man 4, stephen king, the authority, the legend of korra, the punisher, tony hawk, video games, warner bros, warner bros gaming, wonder woman
Do we all really want George's Vision? Or are we just saying that because its cool now? Is an Elden Ring movie coming? Will Fable release in 2026? I'm not really sure, but we do know the Wonder Woman game is no longer happening. With 007's future now in flux, Harry Potter's is more certain. The MCU changes some dates, and the DCU wipes one of the slate.

How about that Superman Trailer....people need to chill. Is Bioware doomed? Is Xbox really going to change to publishing? The Oscars controversy continues, and Robert Eggers is heading to the land of Labyrinth, which I miss David Bowie even more. Also Fans need to chill, for real....
