This just in-ReedPop, company behind such conventions as PAX and Star Wars Celebration (among others), has apparently partnered with E3. If you’ll recall, the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) has had a tough time of it the last few years. Of course, much of that can be chalked up to the pandemic forcing in-person events to go for a virtual offering. But E3 chose to forgo an event entirely this year. Rumors indicated the event might not come back.Cut to this morning, and the news that E3 will indeed return with the help of ReedPop. E3 will return in June of…

We want to start by saying we VERY MUCH HOPE Carlos Santana makes a full recovery from whatever prompted this to happen. Earlier this evening during a concert at the Pine Knob Music Theater in Clarkston, MI, guitar legend Carlos Santana reportedly passed out on stage. Additional footage from the show indicates he regained consciousness before being taken from the facility by medical staff. At present, Santana’s team has not issued any kind of official statement or reason. According to other eye witness reports, the venue staff did make an announcement, which said: “Ladies and gentlemen as you can see…

It’s hard to believe the animated Disney film “Beauty and The Beast” has already turned 30, but here we are. The tale as old as time classic film stared Paige O’Hara as Belle, and Robbie Benson as The Beast aka Prince Adam. It conceptually tackled themes of looks aren’t everything, and be kind to everyone. To celebrate such a momentous anniversary, Disney has announced a 2-hour hybrid special coming to ABC. (Although technically the 30th anniversary would have been in 2021.) While we don’t know who all will be appearing yet, we do know the special will feature never-before-seen musical…

Anime Expo Los Angeles happened over this past weekend. Obviously there was some…excitement…leading into the event opening. One of the big reveals that happened though was the official opening sequence for Netflix’s upcoming “Cyberpunk: Edgerunners” anime! The series tells a standalone, 10-episode story about a street kid trying to survive in Night City — a technology and body modification-obsessed city of the future. Having everything to lose, he stays alive by becoming an edgerunner — a mercenary outlaw also known as a cyberpunk. In development since 2018, CD PROJEKT RED produces along with showrunner/executive producer Rafał Jaki (The Witcher 3:…

We’re hoping by now you’ve watched the supersized season 4 (volume 2) finale of “Stranger Things.” Because if you haven’t, there are gonna be A LOT of spoilers for you. And also, maybe you won’t really understand what we’re talking about? So, if you HAVEN’T finished “Stranger Things” season 4 volume 2, you should probably do that before reading further. Unless…you don’t care about spoilers. In this age of Twitter questions and answers, imagine our delight at learning about some unscripted pivotal moments from the hit Netflix series. The official Stranger Things Writers Twitter account revealed some pretty interested factoids…

We know we weren’t alone in wondering who the heck Sigourney Weaver was going to be playing in James Cameron’s “Avatar: The Way of Water.” As you’ll no doubt recall, Weaver’s character Grace died in the first “Avatar” film. So, unless she…didn’t die, or some type of flashback was used, how would she be incorporated? Early reports indicated Weaver would be playing a “new character,” but that was kind of it. Until Empire Magazine’s recent reveal.Weaver will be playing Kiri, adopted teenage daughter of Jake (Sam Worthington) and Neyteri (Zoe Saldana). “I think we all pretty much remember what we…

We’ve known for sometime that the iconic Splash Mountain water ride at Disneyland and Walt Disney World were getting a major facelift. It’s a good change, as much of the depicted decor and setting was…outdated and problematic, to say the least. Instead of characters based on the pretty freaking awful and racist “Song of the South,” Splash Mountain will transform to a “The Princess and the Frog” theme instead. First announced in 2020, the process has been slow going. Pandemic delays didn’t help. The official Disney Parks blog has revealed the revamp has an opening date! Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is…
