Joker: Folie à Deux, A twisted love story
“Joker: Folie à Deux” drops its first trailer, with Joaquin Phoenix reprising his award-winning supervillain role. Lady Gaga will be playing Dr. Harleen Quinzel, aka Harley Quinn. Given Gaga’s New York roots, I expected her to have a Brooklyn accent, but she didn’t. Don’t expect her to sound like Arleen Sorkin, Tara Strong, or Margot Robbie’s version. Perhaps the accent isn’t present yet because she hasn’t fully transitioned into Harley; she’s still the psychiatric doctor. Zazie Beetz who is Joker’s love interest Sophie Dumond in the first film will also return. Are we going to have a love triangle? The first film finally gave Joaquin Phoenix his flowers because it won him Best Actor at the Oscars and other Award Winning bodies. It is hard to top the first movie so they decided to try something new with this sequel. It is going to be a musical. What the World Needs Now Is Love by Jackie DeShannon was featured in the trailer. It is probably one of the songs to be sung
Joseon Survival: This K-Drama Almost Did Not Survive
“Joseon Survival” was released in 2019, has 16 episodes, is based on a webtoon titled “Back to You”, and was on its way to being an awesome time travel, romance, comedy, action and adventure, historical, fantasy Korean drama series. And then … real life happened! ♦ Why ‘Joseon Survival’ Almost Did Not Survive Have you ever been into a K-drama series, eager to watch one episode after another and then … it’s like the K-drama dropped off the face of the earth! You’re freaking out! Like … What? What? What happened?? You can’t find it streaming anywhere! That’s what happened to me with “Joseon Survival”. This is also why I won’t watch Korean dramas that get uploaded to YouTube unless I know for sure that ALL of the episodes are available. I found “Joseon Survival” accidentally while browsing YouTube videos one night. The first episode had me hooked. I was happily halfway through the series when … the real life that happened was: Kang Ji-Hwan, who played the main character,
GameChops Releases Phoenix Down: Piano Lullabies from Final Fantasy
In the latest FF-branded release, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, you can sit Cloud down at pianos located around the world of Gaia and play whatever melody you want (provided you master the controls first). Special prizes are awarded if you collect the sheet music of familiar FF7 songs and play them as close to perfect as possible. You could do that, or you could buy Phoenix Down: Piano Lullabies from Final Fantasy, a new cover album released by GameChops, and have it do the work for you. This album contains over 30 piano arrangements of iconic themes from across the Final Fantasy series, performed by the sibling team of Super Piano 64 — brothers Nate and Cannon Evans. “Our vision for this project was to craft relaxing, reserved, sleepy piano pieces from choice tracks across Final Fantasy history,” they say. “It was challenging to pick and choose from all the incredible works of this brilliant franchise, but we’re very pleased with the final result. We hope this project brings you
Saviorless Available Now For Consoles And PC
Publisher Dear Villagers and indie game developer Empty Head Games have introduced a new dark fantasy Metroidvania to the market, Saviorless. The game is live now on PS5, Switch and PC and sports an interesting hand-drawn art style — but it’s from a region of the world we don’t typically see art from. In the three simultaneous roles of Antar, the mysterious masked Savior, and rabbit-like friend Nento, you will journey through a land seemingly named ironically (“the Smiling Islands”). It’s now full of monsters, but you’re full of magic, so we’ll see who triumphs over who. Are the islands truly saviorless or can the trio bring peace to the land again? There’s an interesting story behind this game — it is, technically, the first indie video game ever produced in the country of Cuba to be released globally. “Despite initial success and support, the team faced setbacks due to political tensions, budget constraints, game name trademark conflict, and the loss of a key member,” the press release states. “However,
My Hero Academia Season 7 Begins May 4
Last time on My Hero Academia, Class 1A faced their most unusual foe yet — Deku himself, who had gone all emo and sworn off his friends, believing he was so dangerous he had to go it alone. From the looks of things Season 7 will be a return to the typical rogues gallery…but that doesn’t mean it’ll be any easier. A trailer for Season 7 was released this week, which premieres May 4. If you need a refresher as to what happened previously, Crunchyroll is simulcasting My Hero Academia: Memories, a four-part clip series meant to recap every event in the series thus far. It started running this week and will debut its other three parts in the weeks leading up to the premiere. Season 7 of My Hero Academia stars mostly the same Japanese voices: Daiki Yamashita as Izuku Midoriya Nobuhiko Okamoto as Katsuki Bakugo Ayane Sakura as Ochaco Uraraka Kaito Ishikawa as Tenya Ida Yuki Kaji as Shoto Todoroki Toshiki Masuda as Eijiro Kirishima Marina Inoue as
Blade Runner RPG: Fiery Angels Is Out Now
The first expansion to Free League’s Blade Runner The Roleplaying Game is officially out. Fiery Angels is the name, and it’s listed as “Case File 02” because the scenario included with the base game, Electric Dreams, is considered Case File 01. There will be a Case File 03 at some point. Says Free League, “This new investigation starts off with the Blade Runners assigned to question a suspect arrested while trying to infiltrate the Wallace Corporation Memory Vaults. The case leads the team down a perilous path that explores the boundaries of Replicant technology and its consequences. The player characters need to contend with an array of physical, mental, and moral challenges.” This scenario was written by Tomas Härenstam and Joe LeFavi (lead designers of Blade Runner RPG) and illustrated by Martin Grip, David Brasgalla, and Eelco Sebring. Fiery Angels comes in a big box set with all these things inside: A beautifully illustrated and detailed scenario book with locations, characters, events, and leads to follow. Eleven handouts, including a
MaXXXine, the 3rd film in the X trilogy
MaXXXine is the 3rd film of the𝕏 movie. Series. Writer Ti West returns to finish the trilogy he envisioned. This sequel stars Mia Goth, Giancarlo Esposito, Elizabeth Debicki, Kevin Bacon and Halsey. The first film, set in the 1970s, focuses on Maxine Minx, a porn actress who travels to a small town with a filming crew to shoot an adult content movie. Everything goes smoothly until an old lady named Pearl notices that Maxine bears an uncanny resemblance to her own younger self. Jealousy drives Pearl to go psycho, resulting in the murder of the film’s stars and crew. In the prequel, “Pearl,” we witness Pearl as a naive, young, and beautiful woman with dreams of becoming an actress. Rejection sends her spiraling into madness, ultimately leading her to embark on a murderous spree. What I find impressive in the first two films is that Maxine, Younger Pearl, and Older Pearl are all portrayed by Mia Goth. These three characters feel like distinct individuals despite being played by the same
The 2nd Trailer of Abigail shows how dangerous this dancing Vampire is
Abigail went viral on social media when the first trailer was released because of the M3GAN comparisons. I mean the concept of a Vampire Ballerina that kills people while dancing sounds crazy and camp. Close to its release this coming, a 2nd trailer got released. The first trailer is more campy and meme material but this 2nd trailer will make you take Abigail’s threat level more seriously. Alisha Weir who was the lead actress of Netflix’s remake of Matilda shows a different side of her in this movie. The Cute little girl from that Musical becomes a ferocious yet graceful beast with Blood Bath. She is only 14 years old but she looks like a serious threat to these adults who are supposed to be armed criminals. Abigail stars Melissa Barrera, Dan Stevens, Kathryn Newton, and Gian Carlo Esposito, and it’s the final movie of Angus Cloud before he died young age of 25. The Film centers around a group of hired goons who got task to Kidnap the daughter of a powerful underground figure. Kidnapping a little
The Original ALIEN Returning To Theaters Once More
No matter how many lackluster sequels and spinoffs pile up, nothing will ever diminish the impact of the original 1979 Alien — one of the finest films ever made. It changed everything about how science fiction and horror films were shot. It brought the genre out of the realm of cheesiness and campiness and produced a vision of terror that felt REAL. For those who have always wanted to dare to see the original Xenomorph up close, another chance is coming soon. 20th Century Studios has announced a new theatrical run this April 26 (Alien Day) in honor of the franchise’s 45th anniversary (which isn’t precisely that day, it came out in May) and to drum up hype for the coming sequel Alien: Romulus in August (which probably won’t be as good as Alien, but we can hope). The re-screening will include a special featurette about both Alien and Romulus including a conversation between the directors of the two films. The last time 20th Century re-issued this movie in theaters
Night of the Undead: A Sci-Fi Dark Comedy Korean Movie
“Night of the Undead” is a Korean movie, released in 2020, and categorized as thriller, horror, dark comedy, science fiction (sci-fi), and supernatural. This is another one of those movies where the people of Earth are in panic mode because of “visitors” from outer space. ♦ He’s Unbreakable “Night of the Undead” starts with a scene that immediately lets the viewers know that Earth is being visited by … ??? … a being who is obviously not from planet Earth. “The movie begins by introducing a unique new life form called an “unbreakable,” an alien who does not die or get hurt easily. These aliens disguise themselves in human form and live among people on Earth.” (Quote Source) Aliens disguised as humans? Yep. It figures. But nobody cares about that. All the humans want to know is: Do they come in peace? Or … Will their presence cause the extinction of humankind? I mean … Are they going to put something in the water? So-Hee and Man-Gil are happily married.
