Was it just me or were the commercials at the Super Bowl just not as good as they used to be? Even movie trailers were lacking. Anyway, PlayStation had a state of play and announced another remaster of a game that's less than 10 years old (-_-). An American in a major Harry potter role? A law about movie roles? How bout no, and A new Rocksteady Batman???

Another week, another meltdown over Xbox exclusives and "WhY ShOuLd I bUy An XbOx", all because Phil continues to say the same thing over and over for years. We also got confirmation that the Mass Effect Television show is full steam ahead! Lets hope Amazon repeats the magic it did with Fallout. Plus there are apparently a million star wars movies in development, and im sure only 4 will actually come out. Denzel teases his future in the MCU, and D23 Brazil brought the heat. That and a hell of a lot more.

Yes you read that right coming soon to VHS, a movie is coming to VHS in the year 2024!!! And yes Marvel has delayed Blade one again, this time seemingly forever, and NYCC had some great announcements. In the gaming space, Ronald D Moore is taking over the God of War show, and Ubisoft disbands a team that made a successful game, who does that?? Meanwhile they continue to work on Beyond Good and Evil 2, and a new Rayman is coming.

But that wasn't the only news out of Gamescom this week, another Bethesda title is going multiplatform, old franchises are returning, and new adaptations are unexpectedly coming! Also, don't go after actors for roles they play, they aren't really those characters! Meanwhile, Deadpool & Wolverine continues to break records, Indiana Jones's hat sells for over $600k, and The Acolyte is sent packing. Nic Cage, now here's a guy, will be playing John Madden, and forget the chicken sandwich war, Chick-fil-a is jumping into the streaming wars.

If that headline doesn't give it away, then you are listening to the wrong podcast, hehe. GTA6 is finally announced, but don't expect to hear about it again for quite some time. The Nintendo Switch is getting hit with a lot of yesterdays games, and you know what, that's ok, cause its getting some new ones too. Meanwhile, expect the super bowl to have a ton of teases for future entertainment, including Amazon's Lord of the Rings, and Disney+ says screw it and finally announces the release date of Kenobi. Also Lord & Miller gush about MIB 23 the movie that never was, the Oscars half snub DUNE, and Tom Holland is just trying to play every PlayStation Mascot at this point.
