With Marvel’s cinematic universe proving so lucrative, it was only natural to explore the possibility of something similar with DC’s comic canon. Warner Bros. had all the same tools at their disposal and had just come off the back of their incredibly successful The Dark Knight trilogy when the MCU was evolving into a box office juggernaut. At this point Zack Snyder ‘s Man of Steel was already in production, and it made sense to use this Superman reboot starring Henry Cavill as the starting point for a full DC Universe encompassing all of the publisher’s biggest heroes and villains in one timel
James Wan’s The Conjuring was already spiritually connected to the sub-genre of jump-scare heavy modern horror releases in the vein of Insidious and Sinister , and Warner Bros. were no doubt hoping the effort would make enough money to produce a run of sequels. The Conjuring would indeed go on to frighten its way into fans’ hearts and spook the cash from their wallets, and it was only then that the widespread potential of The Conjuring not just as a film series but as a fully-interconnected movie universe became cl
Tim Foley (known as Trick2G) is a high-elo NA LOL player. He also owns Team Gates and is streaming full time. Although he is 34 years old, which is older than most streamers, he has a very strong following. Foley became popular for playing Udyr and Nasus and is responsible for popularizing “D Cane”, a term used now to describe Nasus. While some players find his streams arrogant, fans often say how they are entertained. The general consensus is that Trick2G is an innovative player with characteristic humor and high confide
However, rumors still claim that both systems will still be releasing by the end of this year, even if we don’t know the exact date yet. With both the PS5 and Xbox Series X coming in as the most highly anticipated pieces of gaming tech for 2020, any delays would be immediate news and likely spark fan outrage. Hopefully it doesn’t come to that, but considering the current halt in the market, anything is really a possibility at this po
So, let’s take a look at how exactly this recent epidemic has affected the gaming industry and how it might continue to alter the plans of developers and tech giants like Sony and Microsoft. With doctors on China’s front line to contain the spread of the virus and tend to those afflicted, these effects will hopefully end soon, as will the suffering of the victims. However, for now, it looks like we may be seeing the effects of this delays all year, as one of the world’s largest manufacturing centers grinds to a h
The recent addition of Yu “JackeyLove” Wen-Bo seems to have unlocked something in this team. The upcoming Summer Split will be JackeyLove’s first full split with Top Esports, and fans can expect the young bot laner to be one of the main contributors as they compete in the
Not to be confused with Universal’s Dark Universe (which failed, incidentally), the MonsterVerse is essentially a modern interpretation of the aforementioned Toho franchise that saw Godzilla and an array of other monsters do battle, usually in a surprisingly flimsy urban landscape. The franchise began with 2014’s Godzilla reboot, and by purchasing the rights to various other Toho beasts, Warner Bros. signaled their intention to develop the lore of their MUTO world . However, the MonsterVerse only kicked off proper with Warner Bros.’ involvement in Kong: Skull Island , a reboot of the titular gorilla’s big screen st
Twitter user @sonwooang does a lot of awesome stripped-down League of Legends ranked Guide of Legends comics. Scrolling through, we found several which bought our attention. This one was simply the one we couldn’t move along with
Even though the Lego universe ultimately did fail, the franchise at least dropped a couple of solid efforts before fading into cinematic obscurity. The same can’t be said for Warner Bros.’ planned King Arthur universe. Released in 2017 and starring Charlie Hunnam in the title role, King Arthur: Legend of the Sword certainly had promise as a standalone venture, with Guy Ritchie directing and Jude Law in a key villainous role. In reality, the movie was widely trashed in reviews and made a huge loss for Warner Bros. financially. All of which makes the studio’s plans for a six-film shared universe seem all the more ridicul
A similar situation can be seen happening to Nintendo’s Animal Crossing : New Horizons as the manufacturers for the custom Switch that comes with the Switch Bundle are located in China. Again, the industry is a worldwide collection of independent companies and tech giants all coming together to deliver games, and in the past a majority of the manufacturing has been performed in China. As a result, when something like the Coronavirus begins spreading through the manufacturing center of the world, production can halt and shipments get dela
At the moment, this is still hearsay, as no event was announced and Sony hasn’t commented on exactly what reveals may have been delayed as a result of the convention’s delay. It is entirely possible that we’ve already seen the effects of this delay, with Final Fantasy 7 Remake ‘s new trailer dropping suddenly online as opposed to being revealed at a press event. With that being said, while it may have been a strong business tactic to reveal the system at Taipei, with worldwide coverage reaching close to the huge Chinese gaming market, Sony will likely be holding the PS5 announcement in a more private venue in the fut
