First Look at Hasbro’s Upcoming Transformers Generations: War for Cybertron Earthrise Figures

New York City Comic Con 2019 kicks off this Thursday, October 3, and the announcements and reveals are already ramping up.

Hasbro has a new set of Transformers to show off by way of the Transformers Generations: War for Cybertron Earthrise figures. Check out Optimus Prime and more in the slideshow below:

Each figure comes with “a piece of the Transformers Universe Map,” and collecting the figures allows you to complete the map in its entirety.

The line-up reveal only has Autobots at the moment, so it’s probably a safe bet we’ll see some new Decepticons joining the next chapter of the Transformers saga.

Transformers Generations: War for Cybertron Earthrise figures can be preordered beginning October 3 at 5 pm ET directly from Hasbro Pulse. While you visit the Hasbro Pulse website, you can also put in a preorder for the massive Transformers Unicron figure, which is close to meeting its crowd-funding goal and will enter into production if it reaches 8,000 backers.

Stuber’s Gag Reel Makes Us Want A Dave Bautista And Kumail Nanjiani MCU Team-Up

Kumail Nanjiani may be joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe thanks to Eternals, but after that, Marvel Studios should seriously consider teaming his character with Drax (Dave Bautista) from the Guardians of the Galaxy films. For evidence of why this needs to happen, look no further than the gag reel for their buddy cop movie Stuber, which arrives on 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD on October 15 and is available digitally now.

In the reel, which you can watch above, it’s easy to see how comfortable Nanjiani and Bautista are making fun of each other. When you spend the majority of a film shoot trapped together in a small car, it shouldn’t be all that surprising that you’d bond over silly things. Seeing it play out here–and in Stuber–shows just how much funny the two of them could bring to the MCU, After all, Drax is already one of the silliest characters Marvel has given viewers yet.

In Stuber, Bautista plays a cop that catches a ride from an Uber driver named Stu (Nanjiani) that goes horribly wrong, plunging them both into the middle of a drug trafficking case.

The home release of Stuber includes the gag reel, along with a long list of other special features, including deleted scenes and audio commentary. You can take a look at the full list of special features below. Stuber is available digitally now, with the 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD versions going on sale on October 15.

New Xbox Game Pass Games Announced For Xbox One

A new month has arrived, and that means a new round of games are coming to Xbox Game Pass. Microsoft has announced a new handful of titles being added to its subscription service on Xbox One in October, and they include some great releases.

First, Arkane’s acclaimed stealth game Dishonored 2 joins the Game Pass lineup on October 3. The following week, October 10, brings two more titles: the third-person zombie shooter World War Z and the retro-style 3D platformer Yooka-Laylee.

Three more games are being added to the service on October 17. First is the charming Felix the Reaper, which joins the Game Pass library the day it launches. Rounding out that day’s additions are two backwards-compatible titles: Fallout: New Vegas and the original Xbox classic Panzer Dragoon Orta.

Those aren’t the only games coming to Game Pass this month. The Outer Worlds, the new sci-fi RPG from Fallout: New Vegas developer Obsidian, is also joining the service on both console and PC the day it launches, October 25, and there may yet be more Game Pass games announced partway through the month. In the meantime, you can read more about October’s new Game Pass games on the official Xbox website.

Arnie’s Terminator Storms Into Mortal Kombat 11 This Month

The first look at Terminator’s T-800 gameplay for Mortal Kombat 11 has been revealed in a new trailer.

The official gameplay trailer reveals many of the T-800’s moves, which include the classic pump-action shotgun from Terminator 2, as well as an inventive use of the time-travel bubble for his finishing move.

Nice little touches include seeing the robot assassin’s metal ‘bones’ during x-ray sequences, and the T-800’s Arnie-shaped exterior melting away to reveal the robot skeleton beneath when set on fire by Scorpion.

Developer NetherRealm state that the Terminator T-800 will be available in Early Access on October 8 as part of the Kombat Pack, which also includes Shang Tsung, Nightwolf, Sindel, Spawn, and Joker as playable characters.

Michael Bay’s Netflix Action Movie 6 Underground Gets Ridiculous First Trailer

Michael Bay is best known these days for the Transformers movies, but he also has a long list of hugely successful, non-robotic action movies on his filmography. From The Rock and Armageddon to Bad Boys and its sequel, Bay’s brand of big budget over-the-top mayhem defined Hollywood action in the ’90s and beyond. His next film returns him to his roots; it’s titled 6 Underground and hits Netflix in December. The first trailer has been released.

6 Underground stars Ryan Reynolds as part of a wealthy vigilante gang who fake their own deaths in order to go under-the-radar and take down a criminal group. It looks ridiculous in all the right ways, with exotic locations, incredible stunts, and the sort of wise-cracking dialogue you’d expect from Deadpool writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. Check it out below:

6 Underground also stars Dave Franco (Neighbors), Mélanie Laurent (Inglourious Basterds), Adria Arjona (Pacific Rim: Uprising), Ben Hardy (X-Men: Apocalypse), and Corey Hawkins (BlackKklansman). It hits Netflix on December 13.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Bay spoke about how the film gets him back to the type of movie he made his name with. “My crew would call it ‘the old-school Bay,'” he said. “It’s like the movies I did way back when where it’s got real action, it’s tough, it’s funny, it’s got an interesting style to the movie. The writers, Wernick and Rheese, who I’ve always wanted to work with, they’ve got a great sense of humor and there’s a great style we created for the movie.”

In related news, there’s also a third Bad Boys movie on the way. While Bay directed the first two films, Bay Boys For Life is helmed by Bilall Fallah and Adil El Arbi. It reunites Will Smith and Martin Lawrence and arrives in January 2020. Check the first trailer out here.

New My Hero Academia Movie Art Revealed, Villains Teased

New artwork for the upcoming My Hero Academia: Heroes Rising movie has been released online, teasing a major team-up of U.A.’s Class 1-A as they face the threat of fresh-faced villains.

The key visual shared by Funimation places the young heroes of the hit manga series in the spotlight, with Katsuki Bakugo and Izuku “Deku” Midoriya at the forefront of the image, suggesting they will join forces to battle against their newest enemy, Nine, who looms above them at the top of the one-sheet.

According to the official character profiles on the My Hero Academia: The Movie Heroes: Rising website, Nine is set to unite with another mysterious villain known as Slice, who has the quirk to manipulate her long red locks into multiple forms, including several weapons such as swords and knives.

Mario and Sonic at the Tokyo Olympics Preview: Good Old-School Fun

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I sat down to play Mario and Sonic at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, but whatever those expectations were, this fun-spirited, doesn’t-take-itself-too-seriously collection of mini-games exceeded them. And it’s out soon – November 5.

Mario and Sonic is chock-full of Olympic-themed events, from the swimming high-dive to the 100-meter dash to judo and, of course, track and field. Some of them are even retro-themed so that they look like 8-bit NES sports games. One such event, for instance, was the aforementioned high dive. You have to do a series of button sequences, timed well, in order to land a great dive and a subsequent high score. A more modern attempt at that might involve thumbsticks and motion controls, but the refreshingly retro approach just makes it simple, goofy, button-based fun (case in point: check out the video below of Bowser twirling off the diving board). To be clear, however, there are plenty of events with modern visuals and more modern control methods; as an NES kid, though, I couldn’t help but be won over by the 8-bit stuff. Take a look at the gameplay videos below for some looks at various events.
