TLC is WWE’s final PPV of the year – and from the looks of things, it also might be the flimsiest.

Flimsiest on paper, anyhow. Only seven matches have been booked, one of which is an “open challenge,” and no singles world championships are being defended. Bray isn’t wrestling as “The Fiend” and his Universal Championship isn’t on the line against Miz (we don’t get to see his custom belt?). Becky Lynch hasn’t defended her Raw Women’s Championship properly since facing Sasha Banks at Hell in a Cell. And Brock is…well, no one expected Brock to show up for this one.

Also, nothing’s booked between Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens. Of course, Seth is reportedly hurt and Kevin might be staying off-air to sell his “injuries” from last Monday.

Wonder Woman 1984 looks to be an exciting follow-up to 2017’s adaptation after last week’s trailer was released. But, fans were quick to notice something was missing—Wonder Woman’s sword and shield.

After debuting the trailer to the public, Wonder Woman actress Gal Gadot and Director Patty Jenkins answered many questions about the upcoming film. In an interview picked up by CinePop via CinemaBlend, Gadot opens up about why the iconic hero isn’t brandishing a blade.

What happens when you throw headcrabs, crowbars, and advanced physics puzzles into a dystopian cityscape? If the first thing that comes to mind is Half-Life 2, you’re only half right. Boneworks, by developer Stress Level Zero, is a clear homage to that and several other Valve classics. And while its mechanical ideas and atmosphere aren’t the most original, Boneworks’ best physics-driven moments manage to make VR feel more tangible than any other action-adventure game to date.

Physics-based arena games like Blade & Sorcery and Gorn have been a favorite of VR enthusiasts for years now, but Boneworks is the first VR game to take the idea of giving you a variety of objects, each with their own distinctively modeled weight and heft, and then use those as the components for solving single-player puzzles and combat. I was pleased to discover that there’s quite a thick campaign to progress through here, sprawling across nearly 13 different levels. There’s also a pretty cool original retrowave soundtrack by Michael Wyckoff, and it adds flavor to the overall ‘Half-Life meets Tron’ style that Boneworks is shooting for.

Dungeons & Dragons has had a big resurgence over the past few years, with more people playing than ever including celebrities like Vin Diesel and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. The next logical step is to bring D&D back to its video game glory of yesteryear.

In an interview with Gamesindustry.biz, Wizards of the Coast President Chris Cocks revealed that “seven or eight” games ranging in size are planned for the popular role-playing franchise over the next few years.

Here’s a list of all of the TV series canceled or ending in 2019 so far.

From Nintendo Switch and Switch Lite consoles to games, accessories, merch, and everything in between, these are the best Nintendo gifts of 2019.

While the very future of the cinema-going experience seems to be facing an existential threat these days, with streaming becoming an ever-bigger force in entertainment and non-tentpole filmmakers seemingly finding it harder and harder to get their movies seen on the big screen, the fact remains that there were a bunch of very interesting titles released this year… whether you were aware of them or not.

Yep, lots of movies just kind of sneak by us these days, but — and here’s where streaming comes in again — it’s never too late to track these flicks down and give them a go. So now, as we approach the end of 2019, let’s take a look at some of the highlights from the year that you might’ve missed. From indies to would-be box office champs that undeservedly fizzled, these are the best movies you (probably) didn’t see in 2019…

This weekend’s new Saturday Night Live, which featured host Scarlett Johansson saving the cast from a Thanos Snap, was blessed by an appearance by The Mandalorian’s Baby Yoda during Weekend Update.

And by Baby Yoda, we mean SNL player Kyle Mooney in heavy prosthetics, surrounded by the now-famous floating crib pod.
