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.

While there are fun things to talk about, like the Muppets returning, Nintendo directs, the 90s Console wars, and the new Anaconda. There are also not fun things, like Nintendo and Pokémon behind paywalls, HBO and passwords, and The Long Walk. And at the end, a serious discussion about a topic I try to stay away from, but luckily, that's at the end. Enjoy

I just may, whaddya say? Comic-Con came and went this year, and maybe because the MCU and DCU were so muted, but there were still some good announcements. Xbox says game pass revenue is up, so is it profitable? Wolfenstein is heading to TV, and EA says no to $80. Air Bud is returning and I have serious questions, South Park takes time in its return, Star Trek goes all in on Comic Con, plus reviews of Happy Gilmore 2 and Fantastic Four!

Xbox is always finding rakes to step on, which is ridiculous. After the success for NCAA College football, EA is brining NCAA College Basketball, and no one is shocked. Vin Diesel announces the plan for Fast X part 2, and there's major concerns. Matt Reeves finally finishes the Script for The Batman sequel, and James Gunn gives us who is playing Jor El.
