Is Arrow About to Make This Popular Fan Theory Come True?

Arrow’s newest episode was an eventful one. Not only did Season 7’s overarching storyline take some major leaps forward, “Spartan” also dropped some pretty great cameos for hardcore DC fans. This episode teased the prospect of seeing both Green Lantern John Stewart and the Metal Men one day join the Arrowverse.

Maybe these cameos will never amount to anything. But we can dream, right? Here’s a closer look at the significance of these teases and what it could mean for the Arrowverse after Arrow wraps up at the end of the year.

Green Lantern John Stewart

In the traditional DC Universe, John Stewart is one of several Earthlings to wear a Green Lantern ring. An ex-military man and current architect, John is among the most disciplined members of the Green Lantern Corps. He’s also among the most popular Green Lanterns of them all, thanks in no small part to his starring role in the Justice League animated series.

Arrow Does Right by the Diggle Family

Warning: Full spoilers for Arrow Season 7, Episode 19 below. If you need a refresher on where we left off, here’s our review of Season 7, Episode 18.

Arrow went through a bit of a lull period early this year, as the show transitioned away from the extended prison storyline and tried to establish a new status quo for Oliver Queen and friends. It’s been a fairly bumpy road these past few months. But as is so often the case with the Arrowverse, the momentum is rapidly accelerating as the season finale looms. Far more than just a Diggle-focused side-story, “Spartan” may well be the most jam-packed and eventful installment of Season 7 so far.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Update Coming Tomorrow, Adds New Difficulty Mode

A new update for Square Enix’s Kingdom Hearts III is coming soon. As announced on Twitter, the new update is coming during morning hours PT on April 23. It adds the Critical Mode.

If it’s the same as in previous Kingdom Hearts titles, Critical Mode is a new, more challenging difficulty level, above Proud Mode. As IGN reminds us, Critical Modes in previous Kingdom Hearts titles added things like more damage taken and dealt by enemies, and other things. It remains to be seen how Kingdom Hearts III’s Critical Mode varies from past games.

Critical Mode is free for all players; there is no word yet as to exactly when in the morning PT time the update will arrive, but keep checking back with GameSpot for the latest.

Kingdom Hearts III launched back in January for PS4 and Xbox One. The game quickly shipped more than five million copies, making it the fastest selling game in the series.

GameSpot’s Kingdom Hearts III review score the game an 8/10.

“What sticks with me is the exciting battle against elemental titans with Hercules, taking Rapunzel out into the unfamiliar wide world for the first time, snapping selfies with Winnie the Pooh, and going toe to toe with Davy Jones,” critic Tamoor Hussain wrote in GameSpot’s review. “In 2002, as Sora, I left Destiny Islands to travel across the universe and make new friends. In 2019 I brought old ones home, and I had so much fun doing it.”

Shiny Meltan Is Coming To Pokemon Go For A Limited Time

If you missed your first chance to catch Shiny Meltan, players will be able to catch the shiny form for a limited time starting April 24 – May 5. Meltan will only appear in Pokemon Go if you have opened the Mystery Box, an item that you get after transferring Gen 1 Pokemon to Let’s Go Eevee or Pikachu. With this event, you’ll be able to re-open the Mystery Box after three days instead of the usual seven, allowing for more chances to catch Meltan.

Game Of Thrones Season 8 Episode 3 Teaser Previews The Big Battle Coming

HBO has released a new teaser for next week’s episode of Game of Thrones–and it is very dramatic and foreboding. The teaser for Episode 3 shows the Night King’s army preparing to face off against Dany, Jon, and the rest of the gang at Winterfell. In one sequence, Jon remarks, “The Night King is coming.” Dany then says to him, “The dead are already here.”

That line is intriguing, given that it could be Dany referencing a theory about the Night King bringing the dead back to life from the crypt inside Winterfell. We’ll have to wait a bit longer to find out what happens, but it’s clear that the battle at Winterfell is upon us.

Next week’s Episode 3 is 82 minutes long, which is the longest of the entire Season 8. The battle scene said to be one of the longest battle sequences in the history of film or TV, eclipsing the 40-minute Battle of Helm’s Deep from The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.
