September 2019 – Page 93

All September long, IGN is highlighting the best TV coming your way in the 2019-2020 season. Today, we’re spotlighting Amazon’s Undone, described by the streaming service as a “half-hour, genre-bending, animated dramedy that explores the elastic nature of reality through its central character, Alma, a twenty-eight-year-old living in San Antonio, Texas. After getting into a car accident and nearly dying, Alma finds she has a new relationship to time. She develops this new ability in order to find out the truth about her father’s death.” Here, co-creator Kate Purdy tells us about her inspiration for the series and its distinctive animation style.

Pokemon Sword And Shield May Have Autosave For The First Time

GameSpot may get a commission from retail offers.

Nintendo gave us another look at Pokemon Sword and Shield during its latest Direct presentation. While the segment focused primarily on trainer customization and camping, it seems Nintendo may have also inadvertently revealed the games will feature autosaves.

During the Pokemon portion of the latest Nintendo Direct, eagle-eyed fans spotted the words “now saving” in the upper right corner of the screen when the player character enters a fashion boutique (via Eurogamer), which seems to suggest the games will automatically save at various points while you’re playing. The moment in question occurs at around the 45-second mark in the video below.

If Sword and Shield do indeed utilize autosaves, they will be the first mainline games in the series to have the feature. However, it’s still unclear if the titles will only feature one save slot, as all past mainline Pokemon games have, or if there will be separate slots for the autosaves, as in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Whatever the case, we do know that autosaves won’t be replacing manually saving in Sword and Shield; at around the 1:20 mark in the same video, you can see a dedicated Save option when the menu screen is pulled up.

Similarly, the upcoming Animal Crossing: New Horizons is also the first installment in its series to make use of autosaves. In fact, Switch’s autosave function is the reason Mr. Resetti will be out of a job in New Horizons. In the past, the irritable mole would pop up and lecture a player if they quit the game without saving, but thanks to autosaves, his role is now redundant. However, game director Aya Kyogoku teases that Mr. Resetti is looking for a new job and may yet appear in the upcoming title.

Pokemon Sword and Shield launch for Switch on November 15, just a few days after Nintendo releases a special Pokemon edition Nintendo Switch Lite.

It’s Time For A Woman To Play 007, Pierce Brosnan Says

Actor Pierce Brosnan, who portrayed the legendary super-spy James Bond in four 007 movies, has spoken up to say it is time for a woman to play the title role.

Asked by The Hollywood Reporter for his thoughts on a woman playing 007, Brosnan replied, “Yes!”

“I think we’ve watched the guys do it for the last 40 years. Get out of the way, guys, and put a woman up there. I think it would be exhilarating; it would be exciting,” he said.

It is rumored that one of the plot points in the upcoming No Time To Die movie will feature Lashana Lynch’s character taking over the 007 title from Daniel Craig. This has yet to be confirmed. However, we do know that Craig is reportedly planning to retire from playing James Bond after No Time To Die.

Brosnan went on to say that the current producers of the 007 movie franchise, the Broccoli family, might not allow this change. “I don’t think that’s going to happen with the Broccolis. I don’t think that is going to happen under their watch,” he said.

In 2017, model, singer, actress, and video game performer Cara Delevingne spoke about how she would like to play James Bond someday. “Everyone’s saying I’m meant to be a Bond girl but I’m like, ‘no – I’m working on the James Bond aspect first.’ I wouldn’t mind being a Bond girl but I’m going for James,” she said.

Brosnan played 007 in four James Bond films from 1994 through 2004, including GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, The World Is Not Enough, and Die Another Day.

The new movie, No Time To Die, picks up with Craig’s James Bond out of active service and living a peaceful life in Jamaica. Obviously, it doesn’t stay this way. “His old friend Felix Leiter (Jeffrey Wright) from the CIA turns up asking for help. The mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist turns out to be far more treacherous than expected, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain armed with dangerous new technology,” reads a line from the movie’s description.

No Time To Die is directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga, who is best known for the first season of True Detective and the acclaimed drama Beasts of No Nation. Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris, and Léa Seydoux all return to the roles of M, Q, Miss MoneyPenny, and Madeleine Swan respectively. The new cast members include Rami Malek in a villainous role, plus Billy Magnussen and Ana de Armas. Check out some on-set footage here.

Fleabag creator and star Phoebe Waller-Bridge was hired to add humour to the No Time To Die script, reportedly. No Time To Die hits theatres on April 3, 2020.
