Star Trek has been boldly going for 60 years, but Paramount seems to make us want to forget that. Link has been rescuing Zelda for 40 years, and this year he will be doing it all over again, as we discuss the Nintendo Direct. Don't signal for rescue, because Mayday was a lot better than expected, and Star Wars is heading to a 70mm not near you. And we finally know what Godzilla Minus Zero is really about.

No hype, no corporate gloss. Just raw, street‑level reporting on what’s new, weird, and worth caring about.

Xbox can't help itself; it finds rakes out of nowhere to step on, and its all self-inflicted. There won't be any trips in the Tardis anytime soon, and who is to blame? George Miller wants to sell Mad Max, but why? And Fox buys Roku, which feels oddly familiar.

Christopher Nolan, Discord, Fallout, Lucasfilm, MCU, Netflix, Planet of the Apes, Playstation, Sony, Star Wars, TV, X-Files, Xbox, aaron paul, adam sandler, ahsoka, amazon prime video, annapurna interactive, avatar, avatar: fire & ash, bane, box office, bungie, capcom, cody rhodes, conan obrien, dcu, dead rising, deathstroke, discord nitro, disney+, double fine, eBay, fast & furious, fate of the republic, forza horizon, forza horizon 6, gamestop, gaming, geek, grown ups, gta vi, harada, harry potter, hbo max, ian mckellan, james cameron, lego, lord of the rings, marathon, mixtape, mortal kombat 2, mortal kombat ii, movies, nerd, nintendo, nintendo switch 2, peacock, peter jackson, playground games, pokemon, pokemon fire red, pokemon leaf green, punisher: one last kill, rockstar games, rooster, sega, sony interactive entertainment, steam controller, steam machine, stellar blade, stephen colbert, steve buschemi, the batman part ii, the devil wears prada, the hunt for gollum, the odyssey, the oscars, the punisher, valve, video games, vin diesl, visionquest, xbox achievements, xbox game studios, xbox gamepass
Fatality! Mortal Kombat II is out, and its hilarious, in a good way! Plus Mixtape shines in a way I never expected. Meanwhile, Nintendo jumps on the price increase bandwagon, Ahsoka is stuck in another galaxy for another year, and peacock is about to get a speed boost.

Episode 416: The Force Is not Strong
May 6th, 2026 | 1 hr 17 mins

Should we all for the sequel hate ragebait? Probably not. Xbox continues to make positive changes, will it mean anything? Sony suffers a legal loss, and the speculation about GTA VI's price keeps going. Daredevil gets a new status quo, while Maul cowers away. Star Wars Celebration tickets hit the market today, and boy what a cluster that was.

Major Announcement we are shifting our coverage. This is a permanent change. No there isn't news about PlayStation raising prices. Or That Dave Chappelle is coming to CoD. Nintendo losing a lawsuit, not here. Netflix raising prices, I guess that might warrant sports coverage. Also not sure who Supergirl or He-man are.

Amaze! we have the first big movie review of the year, and it gets a perfect score, full review of Project Hail Mary inside. Plus the Harry Potter HBO show dropped its first trailer, The aforementioned Project Hail Mary dominates at the box office, and post game depression is a real thing. Meanwhile Epic is cutting staff at a hefty amount, and Stephen Colbert is making his mark on middle earth.
