Titans to Premiere on Netflix Internationally

Though DC Universe will debut its first original series, Titans, in the United States, Netflix has acquired the international streaming rights for fans overseas who don’t have access to DC’s digital subscription service.

As reported by Variety, Netflix will be home to Titans everywhere but the United States and China, the later of which doesn’t have official access to Netflix at all. Though Titans is scheduled to hit the DC Universe streaming service on October 12, the international premiere date for Titans on Netflix has yet to be announced.

Though DC Universe launched in the US on September 15, and has been announced for a Canadian release in the future, it appears Canada will be one of the many countries that will enjoy Titans on Netflix, at least for now.

Why Do We Love the Character Venom?

With director Ruben Fleischer and star Tom Hardy’s much-anticipated Venom movie about to hit theaters, some of us are on pins and needles in anticipation. This character is important to fans. But why exactly do we love him so much?

Venom, to offer a brief primer for the uninitiated, is a Spider-Man villain invented in 1988 that serves, essentially, as Spider-Man’s evil twin. Venom is the alter-ego of Eddie Brock, an investigative reporter and rival of Peter Parker who had fused with an alien symbiote (visualized as a blob of living, shape-shifting intelligent tar that once served as Spider-Man’s costume) that wrapped around his body and implanted a dark voice in his head telling him to commit acts of violence and, occasionally, cannibalism. Venom, looking like a nightmare version of Spider-Man – complete with a gaping be-fanged mouth and giant lolling tongue – started his career terrorizing the populace, but eventually became a dark antihero – a lethal protector – starring in his own comics and, as of this month, his own movie.

Black Mirror: Season 5 Release Month and Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Episode Announced

The fifth season of the Emmy-winning anthology series Black Mirror will reportedly premiere in December of 2018 and will bring with it an episode that will allow viewers to choose how events in the story play out.

As reported by Bloomberg, Netflix is “developing a slate of specials that will let viewers choose the next storyline in a TV episode or movie,” and the first new project appears to be an episode of Black Mirror, a show that delves deep into the wonder and danger of technology.

Netflix has already released a choose-your-own-adventure style children’s program called Puss in Book that allows viewers to, for example, “choose whether the pugilistic feline fights a god or a tree.”

Goodbye Dragon Bones: Daredevil Season 3 Will Be More ‘Grounded and Real’

Netflix and Marvel’s Daredevil Season 3 debuts on October 19, but when Matt Murdock returns, it will be in a more grounded and realistic version of the Marvel Universe.

After fighting zombie ninjas, looking for dragon bones, and dealing with an evil, formerly dead girlfriend, series star Charlie Cox promises that Daredevil is going back to basics in the new season. I visited the set of the show while it was shooting in Brooklyn last spring, so read on for all the details Cox and showrunner Erik Oleson revealed about Season 3, including whether or not the episodes are really based on the classic story “Born Again,” the return of Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin, pulling back from the more comic-booky elements of Season 2 and The Defenders, and more.

It’s Hard to Be a Neighborhood Hero in YouTube’s New Action Comedy Wayne

From the minds behind the blockbuster Deadpool film franchise comes an unlikely heroic story about a young boy named Wayne (Mark McKenna), who is trying to survive the tough streets of Brockton, Massachusetts. According to YouTube, “In this gritty and sometimes bloody tale, fifteen-year-old Wayne sets out on a dirt bike with his new crush Del (Ciara Bravo) to take back the 1978 Pontiac Trans Am that was stolen from his father before he died. It’s Wayne and Del against the world.”

While Wayne may not wear a cowl or call himself the Dark Knight, he does hand out justice swiftly to the wrongdoers at his school and around the neighborhood. For a better look at Wayne in action, check out our exclusive clip below:

Every IGN Assassin’s Creed Review

Sit down in this comfy sci-fi chair, won’t you, and plug in as we delve into our ancestral memories of IGN’s Assassin’s Creed reviews. From the 2007 original in which Altair first implausibly lept off a tall building into a tiny pile of hay to last year’s revitalizing Origins and now the absolutely massive Odyssey, Assassin’s Creed has had a pretty impressive 11-year run – including several spin-offs that didn’t go quite as well. What’s your favorite of the bunch?

Finding the right gaming mouse sometimes calls to mind the old adage of “needing to kiss a lot of frogs” until you find the perfect one. Human hands just run a gamut of sizes and that’s not even mentioning features worth of consideration like weight, palm support, DPI settings, etc. Acer is hoping to make that search a little easier with the Predator Cestus 500 (See it on Amazon), a wired optical mouse with an impressive level of ergonomic customization for both right- and left-handed users. I spent some time with this versatile mouse to see if it’s worthy of gracing your desktop.
