I made a promise to myself: that I would try never to hurt a Pufferbird, the orb-ish, squeaking fowl that cover the Savage Planet. Their huge eyes and meek personalities were just too lovely for me to countenance the idea of harming them. On top of that, creative director, Alex Hutchinson (Far Cry, Assassin’s Creed) had told me that almost every puzzle in his game could be solved without violence. So, I decided, I will skirt round their flocks, trying to explore this planet – their planet – as delicately and respectfully as I could.
20 minutes later, I punted a Pufferbird into a bit of newly discovered fauna that acts like a meat grinder, just to see what would happen.

The No More Heroes 3 trailer that debuted at The Game Awards has been accused of plagiarism. However, a deeper look into the situation has revealed that the people who made the trailer may not necessarily have known they were plagiarizing anyone.
Utrecht-based animation house Studio Plumeau posted a tweet on December 13, 2019 that said an FX animation it had created was used without permission in the No More Heroes 3 trailer shown during The Game Awards.
“Biggest surprise @thegameawards last night was seeing our fx animation pop up in the #NoMoreHeroes3 trailer. Who do I bill for this?” read the tweet before it was taken down (via NintendoEverything). Studio Plumeau tagged the game’s developer Grasshopper Manufacture, its publisher Marvelous Games, and Nintendo America in the tweet.
The new trailer for Top Gun: Maverick is here. The long-awaited follow-up to the classic ’80s movie Top Gun sees Tom Cruise reprise his star-making role as ace fighter pilot Pete “Maverick” Mitchell, and it releases next summer.
The new trailer isn’t exactly heavy on plot, but there’s no question that it captures the triumphant spirit of the original movie. Maverick is now a training officer, and there’s a new group of recruits he needs to get into shape and into the air. There’s tons of spectacular aerial action, as Maverick shows us why he’s the best, and we defy you not to punch the air by the end of the trailer. Check it out below.

This trailer follows the first promo, which Cruise revealed at San Diego Comic-Con last summer. Top Gun: Maverick is directed by Joseph Kosinski, who previously directed another Cruise film, Oblivion. The movie also stars Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, Glen Powell, Lewis Pullman, and Ed Harris. It releases in theaters on June 26, 2020.
Kosinski has previously spoken about how the film will deal with the realities of combat and the military in an age of drones and advanced technology. “It’s just a different world now, so you can’t remake the first movie. It has to adapt,” he said. “The Navy is very different now than it was in 1986. Back then, they hadn’t been in any war for 15 or 20 years at that point. Now, the Navy’s been at war for 20 years.” For more, check out everything we know aboutTop Gun: Maverick.
In an interview with AwardsDaily, Brandon, who has collaborated with Abrams on more than 20 projects, including The Force Awakens and The Rise of Skywalker, addressed a few issues the production team faced in wrapping up the long-spanning saga, as she admitted that it was difficult to return to the franchise after Luke’s tragic trajectory and the real-life loss of Carrie Fisher.
Daisy Ridley has expressed her love for Baby Yoda. Because, well, who wouldn’t?
Ridley, who plays Rey in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, has been down on cute mascot characters in the past, most notably venting her disdain for the puffin-like creatures called porgs that inhabit the remote island where Rey trained with Luke in The Last Jedi.
However, when asked about The Mandalorian’s adorable quintagenarian Force user during a promotional trip to Tokyo to promote Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, Ridley, told IGN Japan, “I actually really like Baby Yoda! When we were doing press for The Last Jedi, people kept asking me about the Porgs. I don’t really like the Porgs.” When asked why, she joked deadpan, “I think they’re overrated. I worked a lot harder than any of the Porgs!”
Rick and Morty Season 4, Episode 5, “Rattlestar Ricklactica,” was a return to form for the show. Even more importantly, it was an exciting milestone: For the first time ever, Rick and Morty did a time travel plot. Despite the box marked “time travel stuff” that’s always been on a shelf in Rick’s garage, creators Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland have stated multiple times that they don’t want to do time travel.
Well, we’re glad they did. “Rattlestar Ricklactica” was easily the best episode of this five-episode half season, with a classic concept (well-intentioned Morty screwing up an entire alien civilization), a strong subplot (Jerry wanting to get out of his floating jam without Rick’s help), some incredible gags (the time traveler riot in Nazi Snake Germany), and effortless execution.
As always, the episode was also full of Easter eggs, references, and other things you might have missed. Here’s everything we caught in Rick and Morty Season 4, Episode 5, “Rattlestar Ricklactica.” Did we miss anything? Let us know in the comments below.
The Office’s film-within-a-film, Michael Scott’s opus Threat Level Midnight, has been posted to The Office’s official YouTube channel. The short film, previously only available to owners of The Office season 7 on DVD, is now widely available for free online–and you can watch it below.
This 25 minute cut of the film contains all the scenes you remember, and several that didn’t make it into the episode. It’s not all Steve Carell, either–the rest of the cast, including Jenna Fischer, John Krasinski, Rainn Wilson, and Brian Baumgartner are given a chance to shine with their purposefully bad performances. There are plenty of neat visual gags scattered throughout to keep an eye out for too–an early establishing shot of Scarn’s house is revealed to be from a real estate company sign as the camera zooms out, for instance.
Watch the film below to revisit the steps involved in doing The Scarn, among other things. You’ll even get to learn the origin story of Goldenface in this cut, which is delightfully silly.
Threat Level Midnight was first cited in the show’s second season, before viewers were finally given a look at Michael Scott’s final completed product during season 7, soon before Steve Carell left the show.
