Are two of Hollywood's oldest studios about to merge? It might be a more plausible outcome then you think as Warner and Paramount have talks. A24 and Kojima make a match made in heaven, Insomniac is hacked, and we learn their future. PS5 continues Sony's dominance in the gaming space, and Bobby Kotick is finally leaving Activision. Several streaming shows are getting renewed for their final seasons, and Curb is ending. Pretty, Pretty, Pretty, not good. The MCU's second greatest villain may not actual be a thing anymore, and I watched Barbie. Plus my top 10 Christmas movies.

We have a review of Godzilla Minus One, which im gonna say now, my favorite movie of 2023, hands down. We also got the game awards last week, over 20 new games announced, most of which had no release dates, Baldur's Gate 3 was the big winner, no surprises. We also saw the announcement of several movies, and the release of several trailers for big upcoming sequels. Barbie and Succession dominate the Golden Globe Nominees, and we lost a great star of Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
