When it comes to the original Karate Kid films, The Karate Kid Part III is unquestionably the worst installment of the trilogy. Part I launched the franchise. Part II took it to Okinawa. Part III nearly killed it. Even Daniel-san himself, Ralph Macchio, rejected the film. “I was not a fan of how the Karate Kid III came out,” Macchio said to The Hollywood Reporter last January. “I felt the story was only repeating itself and was not character forwarding for the end of LaRusso....

However, the auspicious acquisition—welcome good news after some recent behind-the-scenes casting drama—has seemingly been overshadowed by a clapperboard, some magic marker, and a renewed resolve by the fandom to discern the Lord of the Rings show’s title. While the obvious demands of brand marketing clearly call for the series to carry “Lord of the Rings” somewhere in the title, it needs to be differentiated from director Peter Jackson’s Oscar-reaping film trilogy while simultaneously evoking those movies....

Dragon Ball Super Episode 1 It’s kind of crazy to think that Dragon Ball Z began airing on Toonami in 1996—over 20 years ago—and it’s been over 13 years since the series finished its run of episodes with the network. The anime would end up being monumental for a lot of audiences because it acted as a gateway anime for many unsuspecting viewers (myself included). Dragon Ball Z fans soon got wind of Gundam Wing, Inuyasha, Naruto, and more, with Toonami’s programming largely acting as a barometer for what was popular, but it was all largely made possible due to the boundaries that Dragon Ball Z’s dub helped bring down....

Echo, the supernatural horror from international bestselling author Thomas OIde Heuvelt, will creep up on you, its claws digging deep in the same way its mystery has main characters Nick and Sam in its clutches. This creates a reading experience just as inescapable; I wasn’t able to stop reading (or listening) to this story of two young men, and how a tragic mountain accident started seeping into their lives, making them question who they are and the strength of their love in the face of the unknown....

Last Night in Soho has been the long anticipated and mysterious thriller Wright and Focus Features have been teasing out for years (it was originally intended for release in September 2020 before the pandemic). We’ve only known that the filmmaker considered it his first real horror film after lightly dabbling in the genre in the otherwise satirical zombie comedy, Shaun of the Dead (2004). But now that we’ve had a real sampling of the film via the trailer (which you can watch below), Wright’s nightmarish vision takes creepy and tantalizing shape....

It seems that some fans may have found a few sneaky ways to avoid the fight against Margit (though it does sound like you may need to fight him eventually), but for many Elden Ring players, this bridge guard will be the first proper boss they have to fight in order to progress through the main story. That also means that it’s the first significant roadblock that many players will encounter on their path to victory....

As a digital marketer or a website owner, you want your website on top of SERPs. To keep your website in the top positions of major search engines, putting adequate SEO efforts are necessary. But, how do you know what SEO efforts your website needs and where it is lacking in terms of optimization? Have you heard about a website grader before? You need to ensure that various search engines rank your web content for the relevant keywords....

With that out of the way, let’s talk about which Nintendo console is actually the best. No, there’s no way to convince everyone that one Nintendo console is actually better than the rest, but we’re looking back at Nintendo’s history of both home and handheld console releases (minus some peripherals like the Game & Watch) to give a little love to your first Nintendo console (whatever it may have been) and also talk about the Virtual Boy....

First Kill tells the story of a forbidden romance between Legacy vampire Juliette and monster hunter Calliope. Adapted from the short story of the same name by author V.E. Schwab, the series introduces us to two opposing families, and explores both the world of Legacies and the world of hunters. The show gives us bits and pieces of mythology, with hints that there is much more yet to be revealed....

The sequel to 2018’s Halloween, the successful, acclaimed reboot and follow-up to John Carpenter’s original 1978 classic, is bringing back several legacy characters from that movie, with the teaser giving us our first quick glimpses of three of them. Take a look and see if you can spot them! At approximately :20 in the 36-second trailer, that is Nancy Stephens as Nurse Marion Chambers, who was Dr. Sam Loomis’ assistant in the original Carpenter film and played the role in Halloween II (1981) and Halloween H20 (1998)....

Developing video games is one big learning experience. Every new project is the product of the errors a company made in the past and what they hope to accomplish moving forward. That approach is clearly evident when viewing the evolution of FromSoftware’s Soulsborne games. Their quest to produce some of the most engrossing and challenging action/adventure titles on the market has led to them gradually refining some of the genre’s core concepts over the years....

This is a major casting coup for Gadot, who is peppering her career with a series of roles based on real life women who had a wondrous effect on the world—from Cleopatra to Gadot’s currently untitled Apple TV+ project about Hollywood glamour icon and World War II inventor, Hedy Lamarr. In fact, Apple, as well as Warner Bros., Universal, and Netflix, were in the bidding for the reteaming of Gadot and Jenkins on Cleopatra....

1.3 Hard Times As Neil Gaiman explained at the Good Omens London premiere, when he began turning his and Terry Pratchett’s 300-page novel into six TV episodes, he started by chopping the book into 50-page sections. So divided, he found that the third section would barely feature Crowley and Aziraphale – a grave mistake, anyone would agree – so he set aside half of that episode just for them. The result is a 30-minute long pre-credits sequence ranging from the Crucifixion to 1960s Soho, dipping in and out of their encounters through the centuries....

After all, gliding around Gotham City was a bit part of the Arkham games, while Gotham Knights seemingly asks you to rely on the Batcycle and your grappling hook as your only modes of transportation. Well, that’s not exactly the case, but you will need to work to unlock your “glide” ability in this game. To unlock gliding in Gotham Knights, you’ll need to first complete your current character’s Knighthood challenges....

According to store pages such as Steam and the Gotham Knights team’s Twitter account, Gotham Knights will launch on October 21. While that would give players a good 24-hour window of anticipation, the game’s Twitter page provides a much tighter ETA. The account states Gotham Knights will feature a staggered release window and launch in each region at the stroke of their respective midnight. The only exception is West Coast gamers; they get to start playing (or at least downloading) Gotham Knights at 9 pm on October 20....

With Spooky Season heading to a close, and Halloween right around the corner, you might be looking for more films that scratch this camp horror itch. If you’re looking for self-serious horror films, this isn’t the list for you. But if you’re looking for something that inspires laughter while you’re watching through the cracks in your fingers, something decidedly Barbarian-esque, check out these creepy classics below. An American Werewolf in London (1981) In her review of John Landis’ An American Werewolf in London, legendary New York Times film critic Janet Maslin described Landis’ film as “callow....

Halo Episode 2 Halo is starting to find its feet, although the attempt is still a little wobbly. Like a kid trying not to get torn apart in their first MJOLNIR test run. By balancing lore and human interest, “Unbound” ends up in a middle ground that solidifies emotional beats that have previously been read between the lines. “Unbound” dives into the Master Chief’s history right away. As a younger man, he watched his friend Soren-066 disappear into the night, abandoning the Spartan training that cost him his freedom and some of the use of his arm....

Harley Quinn Season 2 Episode 6 Over one and a half seasons, Harley Quinn has established itself as silly, satirical, and brilliantly crude. But with “All The Best Inmates Have Daddy Issues,” Harley Quinn reveals a softer side. Reimagining the classic Mad Love arc through the lens of Silence of the Lambs and some instantly recognizable Harley Quinn humor, we get to see Harley and Joker’s first meeting. Though there is, of course, a twist as it’s revealed that our anti-heroine met someone else on that fateful first day at Arkham: her closest friend and ally, Poison Ivy....

Marvel’s latest live-action series will be a Christmas show, and Clint Barton, a.k.a Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), is re-gifting his archery set to young hero Kate Bishop (Hailee Steinfeld). Clint still has the vision to hit a target, but his hearing may not be so great anymore. We can plainly see Hawkeye’s hearing aid, which could end up being the result of an injury suffered on the show. You can watch the trailer here: The trailer features one of the most rousing fast-waltz celebrations ever crooned....
