Warning: The following contains spoilers to Dark Waters. Todd Haynes’ legal thriller Dark Waters tells the real life horror story of one man’s quest to expose the DuPont company for releasing a toxic chemical into a small town’s water supply – but how much of the Dark Waters true story actually happened, and how much of the it was glossed-up for the big screen? Following the nearly 20-year-long investigation of former corporate defense attorney Robert Bilott, the film stars Mark Ruffalo as Bilott, Anne Hathaway as his wife Sarah, Tim Robbins as his boss Tom, as well as Victor Garber, Bill Camp, and William Jackson Harper, among others....

By now, many have realized that Death Stranding has gotten away with something that few AAA games are given a pass for in today’s market - blatant product placement that edges on the extreme, especially when it comes to the Monster energy drinks that are a key element of gameplay and a healing salve for Norman Reedus’ Sam Bridges. Death Stranding is Hideo Kojima’s first game since leaving Konami and, given the amount of hype it had over the years of its development, it makes sense that major companies would want to have their logos placed within the title since it’s going to be seen by millions of people....

Daniel Craig has confirmed he’s done playing James Bond after next year’s No Time to Die. It’s been just over four years since Craig’s last appearance as Agent 007 in 2015’s Spectre, the twenty-fourth James Bond film overall. Bond 25, as it’s still frequently referred to, has taken longer than expected to come together since then, in part because its original director, Danny Boyle, stepped away due to creative differences last year....

The residents of Hawkins, Indiana will once again have to face off against a supernatural predator when Dead by Daylight launches its upcoming Stranger Things crossover, announced today. Stranger Things has already had a video game adaptation, based on its third season, but the Dead by Daylight update will let players get up close and personal with the Demogorgon, the terrifying antagonist of the hit show’s first season. Released in 2016, Dead by Daylight is an asymmetric survival horror game that pits a team of players controlling human survivors against a single player in the role of a killer with much more powerful abilities....

Larry David is back in the full trailer for Curb Your Enthusiasm season 10, and this time Jon Hamm is caught up in the hilarious mayhem. Coming off the massive success of Seinfeld, which he co-created along with Jerry Seinfeld, David launched into a new sitcom venture in 2000 with Curb Your Enthusiasm, in which he played a somewhat exaggerated version of himself. Thanks to his super-crusty, ever-critical and totally hapless on-screen persona in Curb, David quickly established himself as a star comedy actor as well as a writer....

Dark Souls 2 is heralded as one of the most difficult titles within the Dark Souls franchise. Its brutal cast of enemies, high falling damage, and overall brutally punishing gameplay style makes it one of the most difficult game to progress in. That said, Dark Souls 2 is one of the fan-favorite games made by the talented members of From Software and rewards players for their vast game knowledge and skills....

When DC Comics decided to reboot their entire universe of Justice League heroes and villains in the launch of The New 52, fans were divided. Now that the true force behind the DC Rebirth has been revealed, it’s official: even the heroes themselves now realize The New 52 was always doomed to fail. On the one hand, this is sure to be a time of validation, vindication, and relief for the fans who always felt the New 52 reboot was a bad idea - it’s not every day that a comic publisher confirms that a reboot was a bad, flawed, and dangerous idea they’ve been lucky to survive to this point....

DC films have spent a long time playing catch-up to Marvel, and it’s finally doing so by not copying the MCU. The DCEU started with Man of Steel back in 2013, but that and subsequent DC movies failed to capture the same critical and commercial success as its old comic book rival. While DC had reigned supreme with Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight Trilogy, they struggled to follow that up, while the MCU went from strength-to-strength, with The Avengers in 2012 proving to be a huge hit with fans and critics alike....

Warning: The following contains SPOILERS for Harley Quinn season 1, episode 3, “So You Need A Crew?” The latest episode of Harley Quinn revealed that the Legion of Doom have strict standards against sexism, even if it is directed against Wonder Woman. While one would expect such progressive policies from the Justice League, it’s a bit shocking to see a collective of murderous criminals being so deeply committed to equality between the sexes and fair treatment in the work place....

After only 10 episodes and a cliffhanger of a series finale, Deadly Class was canceled by SyFy. The series that followed Marcus Arguello’s (Benjamin Wasworth) first semester in the deadly assassins’ academy of King’s Dominion came to an abrupt end, leaving many of the storylines and potential character arcs that were set-up incomplete and dangling. While the comics may provide some closure since the show was pretty faithful to them and it’s still being published by Image Comics, some of the show’s differences create new storylines and possibilities that the source material won’t explore....

The long saga of consumers attempting to figure out whether or not Death Stranding is a PS4 exclusive continued at Gamescom 2019 this week when fans were bombarded with marketing materials that labeled it as something that would appear only on the Sony console. Death Stranding was originally announced years ago as a PS4 and PC game, but had in the interim pivoted towards PS4 exclusivity leading up to launch....

A new report out today claims Apple will soon be taking orders for the Apple Watch in more countries around the world — even as stock in the initial launch countries remains tight. According to Italian site iSpazio, citing anonymous sources, Apple plans to roll out the Apple Watch preview and try-on experience at its retail locations and begin taking pre-orders beginning May 8th. However, sources close to the situation say Apple is not currently targeting May 8th for its second-wave Apple Watch launch…...

Spider-Man: Far From Home visual artist Henrik Tamm has revealed a deleted Mysterio vision that would’ve seen Peter attacked by gigantic spiders. While Far From Home - a film that doubled as a conclusion to Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and sequel to Spider-Man: Homecoming - was full of noteworthy moments, arguably none were more memorable than Mysterio’s illusion. Indeed, some people now rank the super-villain’s surreal, holographic-powered vision as the best sequence ever featured in a live-action Spider-Man movie to date....

The cryptocurrency marketplace really hit its stride in 2021. It brought more financial institutions and individual investors into buying, holding and selling coins than ever before. For tax year 2021, the IRS wants to know if you held, sold or traded virtual currency (including NFTs); it is a required field to enter. The 2021 Form 1040 includes a required question about cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrency is treated like property for tax purposes....

The beautifully animated and independently made Cuphead provides a single-player experience as gorgeous as it is difficult. Inspired by the “bullet hell” titles of the past, Cuphead combines the vintage animation style made popular by classic Disney works. Drawing inspiration from the Contra series, Cuphead forces players to go blow-to-blow with some of the most difficult bosses fights ever created. Forcing its player-base to develop technical skill and extreme reflexes to survive the brutal world of Cuphead....

A set photo from Da 5 Bloods gives viewers their first look at Spike Lee’s new film. It was around this time last year Lee signed on to direct the project, which follows Vietnam War veterans returning to the jungle in an attempt to find the remains of their squad leader and (perhaps) buried treasure. Chadwick Boseman leads a talented ensemble that also includes Paul Walter Houser. With Lee coming off the success of the Oscar-winning BlacKkKlansman, Da 5 Bloods ranks as one of the most anticipated non-franchise offerings of the year, as audiences are curious to see if Lee can deliver another hit....

Tom Bergeron, the host of Dancing With The Stars, recently shared his concerns about the casting of Sean Spicer on the new season. It was evident upon the announcement of the cast who the most controversial figure would be, and Bergeron felt he couldn’t stay silent on much of the criticism directed toward him and the show. Spicer, the former White House Press Secretary, is best known during his six months in the role for making statements that became news stories in and of themselves....

In a landmark merger, Disney recently acquired 21st Century Fox and all of its intellectual properties, including the rights to the X-Men characters, which have now reverted back to Marvel Studios, which is also owned by Disney. Marvel is planning to reboot all of the X-Men characters that had been run into the ground by the Fox franchise, which is to say, every single one except for Ryan Reynolds’ immensely popular take on Deadpool....
