Endless Jeopardy is a Twitter bot that hosts a hilarious trivia game where everything is procedurally generated and the money doesn’t matter.
Endless Jeopardy was created by Neil Cicierega, known for the irreverent Potter Puppet Pals in the early-mid ’00s (Dumbledore!), the video game Monster Breeder, an album consisting of Smash Mouth mashups, and various other bizarre Twitter bots like Tim Allen Quotes. It is precisely as obnoxious as it sounds.
After eight years with the company, Ben Irving announced today that he is leaving BioWare. Irving served as the lead producer on Anthem.
Irving announced his departure from BioWare today on Twitter and said that he has accepted a new opportunity at a different video game company. His final message as part of the BioWare team included a shoutout to Anthem, the studio’s most recent release.
“I believe Anthem has a bright future – there is a great team working on it and I look forward to following its progress (and playing it!) from the sidelines,” Irving wrote.
In 1982, two of the biggest names in horror joined forces, and the movie Creepshow was the result. The film was written by Stephen King, who at that point was already one of the most successful authors in the world, with classics such as The Shining, Carrie, Salem’s Lot, and The Dead Zone selling millions of copies. The director was George A. Romero, who had revolutionized horror with the 1968 classic Night of the Living Dead, followed it with cult favorites The Crazies and Martin, and then released his 1978 zombie masterpiece Dawn of the Dead.
Creepshow was an anthology movie, with its style and tone very much influenced by horror comics of the 1950s–in particular, those published by EC comics. The wraparound story features King’s son Joe as a comic book-loving kid, while the stories are ghoulishly fun, all directed with an exaggerated style designed to pay homage to vintage comics like Tales from the Crypt and The Vault of Horror. The movie was a box office success, and it stands as one of the best anthology horror outings of the last few decades.
While Creepshow 2 and 3 followed, neither are as fondly remembered–the third movie was released straight-to-DVD and had no involvement from King or Romero. So when a Creepshow TV series was announced by horror streaming platform Shudder, there was immediate excitement from fans. Romero sadly died in 2017, but it was revealed that King would be contributing a story, as would his son–that little kid from the first movie is now acclaimed horror author Joe Hill. As the months have gone by, we’ve learned a lot more about the show too–the cast, writers, and the directors, as well as seeing the first trailer. So here’s everything we know so far about Creepshow….
Remember when Avatar was the highest grossing movie of all time? Before Avengers: Endgametoppled James Cameron’s 2009 sci-fi movie, Avatar was the champion of the box office, bringing in $2.7 billion worldwide. It was a cultural phenomenon, and people wanted more, at the time.
However, a decade later, sequels to Avatar still haven’t hit theaters, though there are plenty planned. How much longer do we have to wait to see the magical world of Pandora and the Na’vi, USBing their way into our hearts?
Well, it’s going to be sooner rather than later, and how many movies that come out of this franchise is unknown at this time–which we’ll get to later. We do know that a ton of people have been cast for Avatar 2 and there could be more on the way. Let’s dig into what else we know about this franchise.
When the Being the Elite YouTube series first launched in May 2016, it was mostly a travelogue for professional wrestlers The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega. However, as the show evolved, storylines and new characters were introduced–including the likes of Cody Rhodes, “Hangman” Adam Page, and several other faces familiar to fans of All Elite Wrestling.
In fact, as far as AEW is concerned, a big part of how the promotion is coming together is due to the popularity of AEW and the notoriety it’s brought the Elite, the group of wrestlers regularly featured on the show. With AEW debuting its show on TNT in the fall, though, many fans have wondered if that will mean the end of Being the Elite. Thankfully, as the Bucks and Omega have confirmed to GameSpot, that is not the case.
“I think BTE is important. And I was talking to someone about this the other day. On this show on TNT we can only do it say certain things,” Matt Jackson said during an interview at the TCA press tour. “On YouTube, we can do whatever the hell we want. Maybe you want to watch Frankie Kazarian go on an F-bomb tirade like he always does. You’re not going to be able to see that on TNT.”
What’s more, Jackson realizes how important BTE has been to the success he and his friends have achieved. “The whole Elite brand is cultivated through the show, right? We created this cult following because the show, and I don’t think a lot of the stuff we’ve done and our own successes with our brand–like we probably would have never gotten to the Hot Topic deals, probably wouldn’t ever got the Funko Pops,” he explained. “All that stuff happened, I think, because these three silly guys were in Japan bored, and we took out our cell phones; we started videoing bits of ourselves. And it exploded, and our popularity just went nuts.”
Even with BTE sticking around though, continuing to help grow the popularity of the Elite brand, and by extension All Elite Wrestling, there might be some serious upgrades in store for the YouTube Series.
“One of the cool things that we actually have access to now which [we could] never do before when we were in Japan [is] we can actually use our backstage area,” Omega teased. “We can use you know POV [camera] shots at ringside. These are things that we can do at our leisure now, which is kind of nice. So you might even see it sort of a new layer of creativity with episodes once [AEW] TV goes live.”
Still, Jackson noted that even if filming opportunities may be upgraded, the show’s actual content will still be on-brand for the Elite. “You can see other sides of these crazy characters and how they act,” he said. “Maybe a little more sense of humor on [BTE], while watching our more sports-centric show on cable TV.”
Take a character like Jon Moxley, for instance. “On the [TNT] show, you’ll see a Jon Moxley type of character [that] is going to be a little darker, right? But if you want to see him have a little bit more of a sense of humor, then you can go to the YouTube show and still watch that,” Jackson explained. “It can feed everything.”
That’s just one of the ways AEW is trying to be a pro wrestling alternative fans can look to if they want to sample something different. Whether it’ll work out in the end, but with AEW on TNT premiering on October 2, it shouldn’t take too long to find out.

If you’ve held off on picking up Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle or Starlink: Battle for Atlas Starter Pack, you’ll want to take advantage of what might be the best Nintendo Switch deal we’ve seen all week: a bundle with both products selling for only $30 at Best Buy right now. Normally listed at $120 ($60 for each product), that’s a whopping $90 savings. This daily deal won’t be around long, however–according to the countdown timer, the deal ends at 10 PM PT / 1 AM ET.
$30 ($120)
The Starlink: Battle for Atlas Starter Pack (which is on sale for $33 individually at Amazon, for comparison) includes the Starlink action-adventure game as well as physical elements that actually attach to your controller and impact gameplay, such as a starship, weapons, controller mount, and pilot. The Nintendo Switch version also comes with a Fox McCloud pilot and an exclusive mission.
The game itself received a 7/10 in GameSpot’s Starlink: Battle for Atlas review, in which one of the main criticisms was how expensive the game’s physical models are. “Starlink is an interesting and enjoyable open-world game, one that fully understands the appeal of exploring new planets and dogfighting in the cold depths of space,” wrote critic James O’Connor. “With a small fleet of ships at your disposal, it can be a lot of fun to progressively assault and weaken the Forgotten Legion’s hold on the galaxy. It’s just a shame that if you’re interested in the physical models, you’ll have to spend more to get the same experience as the digital version.”
You’ll also get Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle as part of the bundle, a crossover between the Mario and Raving Rabbids franchises created for Nintendo Switch. Mario + Rabbids, a turn-based tactical game with both single-player and co-op gameplay, has sold extremely well on the Switch, breaking into the console’s top 10 bestsellers list, and it earned an impressive 9/10 in GameSpot’s Mario + Rabbids review.
“Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle exudes off-beat optimism that never dissolves. It’s a consistent delight, no matter how challenging the road becomes, because Kingdom Battle’s unique turn-based tactics system is in every way a pleasure to engage with,” wrote GameSpot’s Edmond Tran. “Coupled with the annoyingly infectious allure of Rabbids, and the always delightful, colorful world of the Mushroom Kingdom, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is an implausibly engrossing formula that is positively challenging and endlessly charming.”
