Hot Rod did nothing wrong. Yes, you heard me, I said it, darnit! By now you’ve likely seen the news that Hasbro is rolling out a tongue-in-cheek 1986 Apology Tour for the 40th anniversary of The Transformers: The Movie (1986). What are they apologizing for, you may...
Harbro has managed to do what Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd’s combined might never could—destroy the Power Rangers.
For those of you who follow entertainment news religiously, nothing in this article should surprise you.
For those of you who, like me, had only really heard about AI and movies as a sort of nebulous, “someday in the future” concept … holy guacamole, the future is now (almost).
On June 12, 2025, Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy made a surprise appearance at the BFI Film on Film Festival in London to introduce a historic screening of the original 1977 print of Star Wars, later subtitled Episode IV: A New Hope (yes, it really wasn’t called Episode 4 at first).
Is James Gunn’s Superman drawing political parallels to Ukraine and Elon Musk?
I’m not sure if you know this, but James Gunn — yes, James Gunn — has a movie coming out shortly. It’s about Superman, but the main takeaway here is that it’s by James Gunn. Anyway, the upcoming Superman film, directed by James Gunn and slated for release on July 11, 2025, has kicked its promotional efforts into high gear with new trailers, rumors, film clips, merchandise, and James Gunn almost everywhere you look.
One rumor in particular has stirred speculation about potential analogies to real-world figures and conflicts, particularly those involving a certain tech personality whose name rhymes with “Husk” and the ongoing Russia-Ukraine situation. These rumors, fueled by fan discussions on platforms like X, suggest that Gunn may be sneaking some subtle, real-world parallels into the film’s narrative.
New rumors allege that Superman will drop “The American Way” from the character’s iconic mantra.
James Gunn’s Superman by James Gunn written and directed by James Gunn: a James Gunn movie is set for release on July 11th with approval from James Gunn. And, in case you haven’t heard, it’s been making the news lately for a variety of reasons, none of which are particularly encouraging.
Video footage from the Avengers Doomsday set made the rounds online this week after a fan snuck into the supposedly secure filming location.
Earlier this month, the Marvel Universe suffered its worst security breach in recent memory. A man under the TikTok handle @TheyNeverSawItComing pulled his very own “Mission Impossible” and was able to breach the mighty Marvel machine by sneaking onto the set of Avengers: Doomsday at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire, England.
He then uploaded all of the unauthorized Avengers: Doomdday set video footage on TikTok, as one does.
Sibling rivalry has been a part of the human condition since we were all living in caves hitting things with clubs (some of us still are!). This also apparently holds true at BioWare, particularly among its two divisions devoted to Mass Effect and Dragon Age.
Per PC Gamer, David Gaider, the creator of Dragon Age and former lead writer at BioWare, has posted up a storm over on BlueSky about just how bad the internal conflicts got at BioWare between both development teams.
It's another day and another opportunity for the entertainment industries to prove their virtue through ethnicity swapped fictional characters. The world is saved! I will straight up admit to not being a devoted fan of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT). I liked the...
I had previously written about Hasbro and its ability to kill golden gooses. No sooner had I finished that article than it looks like they’ve done so once more, this time to one of their most lucrative franchises – Dungeons & Dragons.
Per his own post on X, Chrisopher Perkins has announced that he will be retiring from his role as Creative Director at Wizards of the Coast, the subset of Hasbro Inc. that is responsible for the sprawling Dungeons & Dragons IP.
Per Hasbro’s CEO Chris Cocks, they have announced that as of 2025 they will be moving away from physical toys while focusing more on digital play (i.e. video games). Since that time we’ve paradoxically seen one of the largest toymakers in the world begin to license out their properties to other toymakers to produce.
I’m not the CEO of a multi-million dollar company, so it may not be my place to say, but as a toy collector I feel that this is a mis-step on the part of Hasbro and its CEO. At the same time, unfortunately I can understand why they feel forced to go this route, and it has to do with both the mistakes they have made as well as those of their partners.
Toys might be one of the items skyrocketing in price very soon due to tariffs, and companies like Hasbro are facing a real doomsday scenario. The word of the day lately is “tariffs”. If you are one of the few who still haven’t heard of them, be aware that they are...
