Is XBOX back? Its making the right moves, hopefully it sticks to them. PlayStation causes an overhyped uproar, but should we still be worried? Michael dominates the box office, despite not moonwalking the critics, class is out on Gen V at Amazon after 2 seasons. And Sony is exploring a Django & Zorro Team up movie, im all in.

You should run to see The Running Man, because after you hear Nick's review you wont be walking. Plus the Game Award Nominees have been revealed, and no Arc Raiders wasn't nominated by GOTY. Also Nick gives his purely honest thoughts about Black Ops 7. Nintendo pulls back the curtain on it's live action The Legend of Zelda, Squid Game US is happening sooner than expected, and Disney+ is bringing generative AI to the platform. That and more on this weeks episode.

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.

Another summer ends, that means its new game season, and to start it off we have my early thoughts on Starfield, which is definitely going to be one of my favorite games. We also have a potential third strike coming as SAG-AFTRA looks to strike against the video game publishers. Doug Bowser opens up about Nintendo's future, and Skull & Bones hits another hurdle. Adam Drive, Aaron Paul and others speak out against the AMPTP, Toho drops a big new Godzilla trailer, and Ahsoka was amazing. Also my top 10 80s animated movies gets a shoutout.

If the title doesn't give it away, Wolverine is finally wearing his comics accurate suit. THIS IS NOT A DRILL! 24 years later and its finally happening. Anyway, Microsoft seems to have won its case against the FTC, and its acquisition of ActivisionBlizzard should be able to go through. The Emmys have announced their nominees, Ashoka released a trailer, and Bog Iger isn't going anywhere anytime soon. That and a whole lot more.

Short episode, heavy on content. More Call of Duty news as the behemoth continues to dominate the industry. Now Europe is looking into Xbox, and Hideo Kojima confirms what is true and what isnt. Meanwhile, WB and HBO lay down the cancel hammer, Disney+ continues to shine, and Andor is top notch. DC films may have a new unified focus, as WB as a whole moves towards a franchise focus.
