@movietrackk Those Kraven test scores not looking good?

(I don't know if there are any, but it does show their confidence levels I guess)

In regards to Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, I've read one review and watched another. By all accounts, this will be a great Indiana Jones game. As always with a franchise I love, I'm quite excited right now. I can't believe it was announced almost four years ago!

@jacklaridian I get the feeling it's too late for that! 😁

Blimey! How much will the latest Captain America film cost? After three rounds of test screenings, it's apparently not receiving the kind of reception Disney would like. It's now on a second batch of reshoots!

Remove the 3D animated people and replace them with real actors.

Why? Are they copying the Disney model?

This is the kind of film news I like! 🤣

Glen Powell seen on the set of The Running Man remake....running!!

After God knows how long it's been since my wife and I have had any free time to watch anything, we sat down and enjoyed episodes 4 and 5 of Fallout.

Wow. I'd forgotten how good the show looks and the story line. I won't spoil it, but the vault plotline is definitely more interesting halfway through. I wonder if the revelation it's building too will be the season one cliffhanger, assuming there is one.

I chilled out for a couple of hours and made another video for #loops. The federated version of TikTok.

You don't need to make videos to join, just head to https://loops.video/ and get yourself the app for iOS or Android and get scrolling.....and..erm...follow me? 😆

Sorry for the lack of any new reviews recently. I took a break on my last work shift. Now I'm working in my home county for a while, I don't have the peace and quiet of a hotel room to write a review. 😆

There's plenty of stuff to see on my blog as this hobby started in back in 2012.

I'll offer my favourite piece of writing from last year, a nostalgic, autobiographical look at me, films and VHS.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has been previewed by the major gaming sites, with the publisher allowing them access to a few bits of levels in 90 minutes of gameplay time.

I've watched two videos and by all accounts, this is looking to be a really good game, with a good mix of puzzles and adventure.

So glad I have my Series S and a wife who pays for Game Pass. 😁

What does that mean? Stampede are behind Tremors 1➡️4, and the 13 episode television series. A script was written for film 5 but Universal went their own way without any help from Stampede.

That's why films 5,6 and 7 are terrible.

Now Stampede has the rights back for the first film, (anything from other films are still Universals), and so a new sequel with surviving cast members could be on the cards.

The Tremors rights are back in the hands of Stampede Entertainment

It looks like director Chad Stahelski (John Wick 1, 2, 3 & 4) had to reshoot most of the Ballerina (John Wick 3.5) without the original director, Len Wiseman, present.

This is more than a reshoot, as filming lasted 2 to 3 months!

Ouch.

@jacklaridian If it's really that bad, it may get The Crow'ed or Borderland'ed and get chucked onto a streaming platform within a month! 😂

Milk that cow Disney! For me, the Mandalorian started out well and I thought season 3 ended everything quite nicely.

Also, well done Pedro Pascal for the pay rise. I'm sure I read somewhere, he's not physical in the show that much as there's are least two other actors in the role. A stuntman and another guy who is very good at twirling guns etc.

My review within the hour...

Wow! Keanu Reeves was almost cast as Master Sol in The Acolyte. Not sure that would've saved it though.

Also, the reason for it's cancellation, apparently viewing figures dropped after episode 2. Not people are wondering if it disappear like Willow.

I've got a CEX voucher burning a hole in my wallet, so I think I'll get a 512gb extension card for my Xbox Series S so I can get some larger games.

So, Starfield. Does it have a single player story? Is it GTA in space or more of a No Man's Sky kind of game?

@jacklaridian Why is his face so clear but the text so garbled?

Interesting. I'm even more curious about this film now.

@jacklaridian I stopped after the second trailer. Also, I wasn't impressed with everyone talking about and using one character, even though the head was hidden, as a thumbnail for the next trailer.

Can we have some surprises please?
