Adult Swim’s surrealist workplace comedy Dream Corp LLC has returned for a second season. The mixed media series created by Daniel Stessen and produced by John Krasinski, Stephen Merchant, Kahlea Baldwin and Allyson Seeger is comprised of eleven-minute episodes revolving around a run-down dream analysis center and the patients who, perhaps ill-advisedly, seek treatment there. During the first, six-episode season of Dream Corp LLC that aired in 2016, a new patient arrived each week and handed their subconsciousness over to Dr....

The Electronic Entertainment Expo is the calendar event of the year when it comes to the games - the place where every games publisher, developer, and big name in both software and hardware all come together to show off the next big thing. It is Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft’s Wrestlemania. Well, it used to be. From its very first show in 1995, E3 became known for the place to announce brand new games and machines that players would not be able to wait to get their hands on....

Disney is ready to increase the price of its ESPN+ premium subscription for both monthly and yearly customers. The monthly plan is going up by $1 with the yearly option increasing $10. ESPN+ first launched back in 2018 with a monthly price of $4.99 for live sports streaming, original shows, and more. That rate has only increased once over the last few years to its current price of $5.99/month with a yearly plan at $59....

The annual player coordinated Santa Spirit event began Friday for EVE Online players (“capsuleers”), just a week after developer CCP Games detailed the latest changes to the space MMO’s War Declaration system, introducing “war eligibility.” But that’s not all the holiday news coming to the world of EVE! Allow us to introduce Operation Permafrost, a holiday-themed event that will see players meet a mysterious third party and journey to the polar region of a mysterious ice dwarf to disrupt ORE Frostline’s operations and take on Mordu’s Legion....

Love always seems to be in the air in Hollywood. Each week it seems like there are more and more tabloids on celebrity couples living in the city of stars. Marvel actors are no exception when it comes to Hollywood flings. Some of the actors in Marvel films are married, others are currently dating someone, and others still are happily living the single life. The thing about Marvel movies is that there is a wider range of releases than most people think....

Critically-acclaimed FX drama Fargo surprised many when it premiered last year to rave reviews from viewers and critics alike. It managed to match the tone of the 1996 Coen brothers films of the same name that it is loosely based on, while creating a rich universe of its own with a roster of intriguing (and often quirky) characters. Naturally, the cable network found itself compelled to order a second season, which somehow managed to exceed expectations once again....

Final Fantasy VII took the gaming world by storm in 1997. The main character of the game was Cloud Strife, who was a former member of an elite military group, known as SOLDIER. He originally worked for the Shinra Corporation, before leaving and joining a terrorist organization that wanted to overthrow them. As the story in Final Fantasy VII develops, you begin to learn more about Cloud’s past and it is up to the player to determine how much of what he says is the truth....

The American Horror Story anthology series’s first season, called Murder House, came out in 2011. Ever since that first season, the audience has been thrown down a scary rabbit hole for nine seasons. They have been sent to an asylum, a freak show, roanoke, and 1884, just to name a few. With American Horror Story’s seasons being in a different setting every time, that also means the cast undergoes a lot of changes....

The Marvel Cinematic Universe all but owns the world of streaming media with their recent domination of Netflix in series like Daredevil and Luke Cage. DC Comics, meanwhile, has kept their small screen domain centered on The CW network for the most part with their powerhouse series like Arrow and The Flash. The one exception has been the Batman prequel series Gotham over on the FOX network Gotham has long been controvertial among fans due to the series having its own unique take on the Batman mythos and the characters within....

Just as Gotham has teased Bruce Wayne’s eventual evolution into Batman, the series has taken great pleasure in toying with its audience regarding the future of its freshly face-peeled maniac, Jerome. Cameron Monaghan’s take on the would-be Clown Prince of Crime has become a staple of the series, earning him the moniker of Proto-Joker, as his actions and physical appearance gradually became more and more like his comic book counterpart, even as Monaghan’s performance began to mirror that of Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight....

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 begins filming next month at Pinewood Studios Atlanta where writer-director James Gunn has already been situated for months conducting preparations. It’ll be the first ever film shot using RED’s new WEAPON 8K camera system. Not much is known about the plot of the sequel, only that it’ll be more personal, emotional, and in a sense smaller. That doesn’t mean the cosmic adventure is going to be small in scale....

AirPods Max were introduced in 2020 as the first wireless headphones under Apple’s brand, and while they offer great sound quality, some customers don’t like the controversial Smart Case. If you are one of them, you can now try a case made by the luxury Italian brand Gucci for just $980. Gucci says its “Ophidia” case for AirPods Max protects Apple’s headphones with vintage and contemporary design aspects. While the Apple-made AirPods Max Smart Case has no textures or branding whatsoever, the Gucci case makes it clear that you have super expensive headphones with a super expensive case....

A wave of rumors recently has indicated that Apple is ramping up its efforts to launch a new external display at lower price than the Pro Display XDR. Now, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman writes that he “strongly believes” Apple will “launch a new external monitor for its latest Macs.” In the Q&A section of the latest edition of his Power On newsletter, Gurman is asked whether he believes Apple will launch a new external display for Mac....

The absence of his lightsaber is the first intriguing part of this mystery. After losing his father’s old weapon along with his hand during the duel with Vader on Cloud City, Luke constructed a new, green-bladed lightsaber. Some fans think that saber was lost when the second Death Star was destroyed, but it can clearly be seen on the young Jedi’s belt during the party with Ewoks on the Endor moon, and it also shows up in Shattered Empire, the only canonical post Return of the Jedi story explicitly featuring Luke Skywalker other than The Force Awakens....

The beloved Dragon Ball franchise has almost as many twists and turns as it does episodes and chapters. Starting as a mystical adventure, Dragon Ball then became a supernatural fighting story, then a sci-fi action series, before focusing in on the cosmic and divine combat that defines Dragon Ball Super. Of course, Dragon Ball has always been a hodgepodge of different genres and themes, as evident by a Terminator inspired android trying to stop Goku from collecting the dragon balls way back in the original series....

Dragon Ball always had a habit of reinventing itself, forgoing the status quo in favor of bolder storytelling decisions. As of late, however, the franchise has been resting on its laurels, nudging along rather slowly without shaking things up too much. Or so it seems. While Dragon Ball Super does very little for narrative progression and character development, it does a lot for lore. It’s easily Super’s biggest contribution to the franchise for better or worse....

Danny DeVito jokes that he and Michael Keaton swapped roles in Dumbo, after having starred together in Batman Returns. Tim Burton’s DC superhero sequel hit theaters back in 1992 and marked the director’s third collaboration with Keaton overall, after Beetlejuice and the 1989 Batman. It also served as the filmmaker’s first time working with DeVito, who played a grosser-than-usual Penguin opposite Keaton’s Caped Crusader. Burton and DeVito would go on to reunite eleven years later for Big Fish, where DeVito played a circus ringmaster who’s secretly a werewolf… at least, in the (larger than life) stories told by the film’s protagonist....

The man of the hour, Elon Musk, is tweeting as much as he can in these past few weeks – and might be related to his deal to buy Twitter. In his latest tweet, Musk is once again attacking Apple’s App Store fees to developers. This time, he compares it to having a “30% tax on the internet.” In a reply to another tweet, Tesla’s CEO writes: Interesting or not, Epic’s Tim Sweeney also retweeted the post mentioned above....

Netflix has become part of our viewing culture. What was once an easy platform to watch our favorite films and shows has become a viable studio unto itself, with enough clout to land the biggest stars in Hollywood for leading roles. Being a so-called “Netflix star” no longer carries a negative stigma– in fact, many of the actors on this list have the streaming service to thank for their career breakthroughs and/or resurgences....

Jeremy Renner wasn’t informed where Clint Barton’s family went in Avengers: Endgame. After sitting out Avengers: Infinity War, Hawkeye came back to the MCU with a brand new persona - Ronin. Born out of the tragedy of losing his whole family from Thanos’ deadly snap, it took a while before he banded back with the rest of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in the hopes of bringing back everyone who died during The Decimation....
