Line of Duty: Could Jo Davidson End Tommy Hunter’s Legacy For Good?

New DVD release, , , ,
Warning: contains spoilers for Line of Duty series one to six. Considering that Tommy Hunter has only appeared on screen in four of Line of Duty’s 36 episodes – once in real time, once in a video clip, once in flashback, and once as an unrecognisable bandage-wrapped burns victim – the character casts a long shadow over the police thriller. Whatever and whoever AC-12 has investigated over the years, Tommy’s organised crime group and corrupt officers have been somewhere in the mix, wearing balaclavas, slitting throats and making a mockery of the law.  Though he died in the series two opener, Tommy’s legacy…

New DVD release, ,
Monster Hunter Rise is finally here, which means that it’s time for millions of fans old and new to try to hunter every monster in the game and turn them into some of the swankiest (and weirdest) armor and weapons you’ll ever see. If you’re new to Monster Hunter and Rise is your first time exploring this series, then you’ll likely be blown away by both the creative design of the game’s monsters and the sheer number of them spread throughout the title’s sizeable world. While Rise doesn’t feature nearly as many monsters as some of the franchise’s older handheld…

Monster Hunter Rise Co-op: How to Play With Friends

New DVD release, ,
Monster Hunter Rise follows in the footsteps of Monster Hunter World by offering a larger world and other modern improvements, but the game retains one of the franchise’s best features by allowing you to adventure with friends via co-op gameplay. Millions of fans agree that Monster Hunter is just better with friends, and it’s hard to argue that the game just feels best when you’ve got a full squad (which, in this case, is four players) by your side. Still, the benefits of Monster Hunter‘s co-op options don’t mean much if you’re not able to access them in the first…

Monster Hunter Rise: How to Choose Your First Weapons

New DVD release, , , ,
Monster Hunter Rise continues this series’ tradition of offering a complex series of mechanics wrapped in a stylish package that emphasizes absurdity and fun. Before you can dive into everything that makes this franchise famous, though, you’re going to have to choose which of Monster Hunter Rise‘s weapons are right for you. While Monster Hunter Rise doesn’t make you commit to your starting weapon for the entire game, choosing the right weapon for you can make all the difference. That’s especially true if Rise is your first Monster Hunter game and you really want to give yourself a chance to…

Monster Hunter’s History of Absolutely Ridiculous Weapons

New DVD release, , , , ,
The release of Monster Hunter Rise is rightfully being celebrated for many reasons, but one of the best things about the release of any new Monster Hunter game is the chance to explore their extensive collections of ridiculous weapons. While there’s really no such thing as a “practical” Monster Hunter weapon (this is a franchise that loves to go far over the top), there’s a special class of weapons in this series that’s on another level in terms of absurdity. These weapons aren’t just giant creations that defy the laws of physics en route to conquering the most feared beasts…

Monster Hunter Review: Paul W.S. Anderson Lowers the Bar with Another Video Game Movie

New DVD release, , , , , ,
One can say this for director Paul W.S. Anderson: he’s consistent. His quarter-century-old filmography is one long litany of mediocrity or worse, often veering into unwatchability, and the fact that six of the 13 films he’s directed, including the new Monster Hunter, are based on video games tells you all you need to know about his esthetic. Monster Hunter, which Screen Gems is releasing into theaters as the COVID-19 pandemic rages worse than ever, is based on the 16-year-old video game franchise of the same name from Capcom (it happens to be the publisher’s second-best selling series after Resident Evil,…

Star Wars: The Mandalorian – How Is Boba Fett Alive and Who Plays the Bounty Hunter?

New DVD release, , , ,
This Star Wars: The Mandalorian article contains spoilers. From the very beginning, Boba Fett has inspired The Mandalorian. Showrunner Jon Favreau’s “toy box” approach pitched protagonist Din Djarin as a Boba Fett-like figure, and although the two are quite different in terms of personality and history, the iconic silhouette of the space western gunslinger is very similar.  But now Boba Fett himself is back in The Mandalorian season 2, played by none other than Temuera Morrison in a very brief cameo. At the very end of the season 2 premiere “The Marshall,” we find Boba watching from a hill as…

Monster Hunter Movie: Release Date, Cast, News, and Photos

New DVD release, , , ,
British director Paul W.S. Anderson turned the hit video game franchise Resident Evil into a long-running film series in the early 2000s, and he’s set to do the same thing again with another property owned by Japanese publisher Capcom. As its name implies, Monster Hunter is a sprawling fantasy game that involves protecting townsfolk from marauding creatures. It’s logical fodder, then, for an energetic special effects movie – something Anderson’s traded in for several years now. Like the last of the Resident Evil adaptations, Anderson’s Monster Hunter is filming in South Africa, with the budget set at a fairly moderate $60 million.  The project is funded…
