Cobra Kai Season 5 Sweeps the Leg of Doubt Ahead of Season 4

Netflix, New DVD release, , , ,
Netflix might as well be the San Fernando Valley, since the streaming giant has karate on its algorithmic brain, thanks to escalating hype from hit television acquisition Cobra Kai. Indeed, the series has just nabbed an advance fifth season renewal, arriving on the heels of a status-elevating Emmy nomination for Outstanding Comedy amongst other nods. The move occurs as the show’s slowly-teased upcoming fourth season heads toward a still-date-less December release window. After recent changes to Netflix’s formerly-spendthrift content-ordering habits, the renewal certainly solidifies the series as one of the streamer’s primary pillars. Yes, it appears that the high-stakes tournament…

New DVD release, , , , , ,
Hours before the Destruction of Verdansk Part 2 event and what many Call of Duty Warzone players suspect will be the full reveal of a new (or altered) map, the CoD team has released the full patch notes for Warzone‘s Season 3 update.

How Legally Blonde Created a Feminist Hero Ahead of her Time

New DVD release, , , ,
Twenty years ago, Legally Blonde’s Elle Woods burst onto our screens with her infectious can-do attitude and an early-2000s penchant for all things pink and fuzzy, from her jacket to her phone. Reese Witherspoon’s iconic sorority sister who goes to Harvard Law School in pursuit of an ex-boyfriend—dressed in head-to-toe pink, carrying a copy of the Bible (Cosmo, obvi)—didn’t jive with the era’s conception of a Strong Female Character, a la Trinity from The Matrix, Sarah Connor from the Terminator movies, or Lara Croft from the Tomb Raider franchise. Elle derives her strength from what many would deem her traditionally…

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake Leaked Ahead of Reveal

New DVD release, , , , , ,
A Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake has been leaked ahead of its intended reveal. The leak, which comes from the Russian Uplay store, includes a brief (very blurry) clip of the remake in “action.” The clip only features snippets from cutscenes in the game and, to be honest, the footage looks awful. While this could simply be the result of a bad upload, poor conversion, or any other understandable technical issues, fans are already worried that this remake is actually going to be closer to a remaster. For what it’s worth, we’d advise holding off on all…

Welcome to Blumhouse Trailer Arrives Ahead of October Amazon Premiere

New DVD release, , , , , ,
Welcome to Blumhouse is set to unveil an unsettling small screen cinematic experience for Amazon Prime Video subscribers from the safety and (dis)comfort of their own homes. Blumhouse Television and Amazon Studios have teamed up to conjure Welcome to Blumhouse, a collection of all-new, diversely-themed, brand-unified films from the eponymous fabricators of film frights, arriving just in time for a Halloween season that—unprecedentedly—won’t likely involve trick-or-treating.

Supernatural Final Episodes Trailer Arrives Ahead of October Return

New DVD release, , , , , ,
The CW’s veteran wayward son of a show, Supernatural, will soon carry on towards whatever peace there’ll be when it is gone. It’s a notion that feels a lot more real with the release of the trailer for the final seven episodes of Season 15, which happen to be the final episodes of the series…period. While a pandemic-pushed delay may have resulted in a stay of sorts for Supernatural fans who aren’t ready to let go of the series, Sam and Dean Winchester are solidly scheduled to face the music (in a more serious scenario than Bill & Ted,) starting…

New DVD release, , , , ,
Carina Adly MacKenzie, the creator of Roswell, New Mexico, has left her position as co-showrunner of the series ahead of Season 3 due to “fundamental differences.” According to The Hollywood Reporter story that broke the news, the decision comes after MacKenzie’s relationship with studio Warner Bros.

Suzi Quatro Talks Leather and Legacy Ahead of Documentary

New DVD release, , , , ,
The bass-playing singer and songwriter, Suzi Quatro, is an icon. Maybe not so much in the U.S. where she is best known for her Happy Days role as Leather Tuscadero, backed up by The Suedes and playing sock hops in middle America. But to the rest of the world, Quatro was the first female face of the rock generation.  Directed by Australian filmmakers Liam Firmager and Tait Brady, the documentary Suzi Q shows Quatro as a true pioneer. She redefined the role of women in rock ‘n roll. There were female singers and musicians before Suzi, but she was the…
