The Witcher: We Break Down Three Scenes From the Netflix Series
Three scenes from The Witcher were shown during Sunday’s Netflix panel at Brazil Comic-Con 2019, depicting a conflict between Geralt and Calanthe, as well as scenes featuring Ciri and Yennefer. While the footage won’t be released online, IGN Brazil was there to break down what was shown.
In the scene — a snippet of which was posted to Netflix’s Twitter last week — Geralt (Henry Cavill) is in the royal court of Cintra fighting soldiers. The Witcher is helping a beastly creature with a spiky head. Queen Calanthe (Jodhi May) orders them both executed.
Armed with a sword but without his armor, Geralt keeps beating the soldiers. Calanthe then takes a sword from the ground to fight the Witcher herself. When they cross swords, she asks to stop the fight.
New Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker Footage Will Debut Inside Fortnite Very Soon
New footage from the much-anticipated Star Wars movie The Rise of Skywalker will premiere inside of the battle royale game Fortnite later this month. Epic Games has announced that director JJ Abrams will showcase new footage of the sci-fi blockbuster at the in-game outdoor theatre Risky Reels on December 12. The footage will debut at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET that day.
As for what to expect, Disney is promising an “exclusive scene” from Rise of Skywalker, but there are no further details available at this time. Epic added that Risky Reels opens its doors at 10:30 AM PT / 1:30 PM ET, so players can head in early to get a good seat.
This confirmation comes after players discovered posters for the Rise of Skywalker reveal in Fortnite at various locations across the map. The new Rise of Skywalker footage will undoubtedly get posted to YouTube very quickly, so you don’t necessarily need to play Fortnite to check out the new movie content.
This is not the first partnership between Fortnite and Star Wars. In November, a massive Imperial starship appeared in the sky, and a Stormtrooper skin also came to the game.
Abrams is working with Epic Games on a new video game called Spyjinx. Epic has said very little about the project, but the company says it is still in the works.
Abrams also recently signed a $250 million deal to make new video games, TV shows, and movies for Warner Bros.

Wonder Woman 1984: First Look at Kristen Wiig as Cheetah
The first official character posters for the upcoming sequel Wonder Woman 1984 are here and they look rad. Announced via the official Twitter account, the posters are colorful and stylish, just like the era it takes place in.
Along with the first trailer, the posters give us our first look at Wonder Woman’s antagonist the Cheetah, played by Kristen Wiig, and Pedro Pascal (currently dazzling us as The Mandalorian) who plays Maxwell Lord.
The Conjuring 3 Title and Official Plot Synopsis Revealed
We finally know what horrors Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga’s paranormal investigator couple, Ed and Lorraine Warren, will face next.
The Conjuring 3 (the actual seventh movie in the Conjuring franchise) has a title: The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It.
In a press release, New Line announced that the new film will release September 11, 2020.
Official synopsis: “A chilling story of terror, murder and unknown evil that shocked even experienced real-life paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. One of the most sensational cases from their files, it starts with a fight for the soul of a young boy, then takes them beyond anything they’d ever seen before, to mark the first time in U.S. history that a murder suspect would claim demonic possession as a defense.”
My Hero Academia Season 4, Episode 8 Review
This review contains full spoilers for My Hero Academia Season 4, Episode 8 (aka episode 71 overall), “Suneater of the Big Three.” To refresh your memory of where we left off, check out our MHA Season 4, episode 7 review.
Episode 7, “GO!!”, was an intense build-up to what My Hero Academia seemed to be promising would be a climactic battle. So it was pretty reasonable to expect Episode 8, “Suneater of the Big Three,” to open exactly where the last episode left off. And it does, kind of, but in true My Hero Academia fashion, the episode is clever about it. Instead of a white flash leading to a crowded brawl, we begin with a shot of Amajiki (the titular Suneater) of the Big Three thinking back on his school days as a lonely new kid, where he sat, awkward and alone, in the classroom, before Mirio offered him a ray of hope and acceptance. Then we get the action shot as the group of heroes charge on the villains’ headquarters. But this is all from Amajiki’s perspective, watching Mirio charge headfirst into battle as Amajiki follows, hoping that he, another member of the Big Three, can shine the way that Mirio does.
New Wonder Woman 1984 Trailer Debuts At CCXP Brazil
DC and Warner Bros. have a couple of comic book movies coming out in 2020. The first is Birds Of Prey arriving on February 2, and the second is the highly-anticipated Wonder Woman 1984 debuting on June 5. During Comic-Con Experience in Brazil over the weekend, we finally got some more info about the movie, some new images of characters like Maxwell Lord, and a trailer–which we knew had been coming for a while.
Aside from the new images that were revealed, the Wonder Woman panel featured Wonder Woman 1984 star Gal Gadot and director Patty Jenkins who briefly discussed making the movie and using practical effects. Then, Gadot and Jenkins unleashed the new trailer upon the world.
Prior to the trailer, we knew Wonder Woman 1984 took place during the ’80s, like the title suggests, and somehow, Steve Trevor plays a major part in the movie. It’s crazy to actually see the character back in the movie, but what’s the twist. Outside of the casting, very little info had been released to the public prior to this trailer.
It’s obvious that Trevor had jumped through time or something along those lines, as he’s very confused about the trash can at the end of the trailer. Also, there were lots of shots inside a mall, and who doesn’t love a 1980s mall sequence?
The upcoming movie stars Gadot as Wonder Woman, Pedro Pascal as Max Lord, Chris Pine as Steven Trevor, and Kristen Wiig as Cheetah. Patty Jenkins will return to direct featuring a screenplay by Jenkins, Geoff Johns, and Dave Callaham.
Wonder Woman 1984 hits theaters on June 5, 2020.
Full-Size Commodore 64 Revival Coming Soon
Homebrew enthusiasts will be happy to know that a proper Commodore 64 is on its way. Unlike last year’s Commodore 64 mini, this updated version dubbed “THEC64” includes a full-size keyboard and an updated joystick controller, something we weren’t too fond of in its mini counterpart.
As reported by Polygon, Retro Games Ltd., the creators of THEC64, say the updated unit will begin shipping to Europe sometime this month. No word has been given on a US release as of this time.
