This week’s Monday Night Raw kicked off with an announcement from MVP, informing The Miz that he would be defending the WWE Championship against The Hurt Business’ Bobby Lashley at exactly 9 p.m. EST (at the top of Raw’s second hour).

Twitch is cracking down on fake engagement and suspending more than 7.5 million accounts in the process. Anyone who has been on social media a lot in the past two decades knows about the dangers of this sort of practice. People buy followers or even entire campaigns to boost their numbers. This can lead to increased brand opportunities and endorsement paydays for streaming personalities, influencers, and other celebrities. However, this can also affect people negatively as bots can be used to harass people or flood the chats of streamers online who might draw the ire of some observers....

Zack Snyder teased that Batman and Deathstroke team-up in Justice League. It’s no secret that a lot of elements from the theatrical release are getting tweaks in Zack Snyder’s Justice League.

As opposed to Slade Wilson being recruited for the villain team to counter the Justice League at the end of Joss Whedon’s cut, Bruce Wayne will try to work together with the supervillain to find a solution....

Generally speaking, one of the things that DC does well is their Pride Month books. Last week’s DC Pride 2022 was wonderful and even outside of the Pride Month efforts, the publisher has had some fantastic stories and characters falling under the LGBTQ+ umbrella in recent years, including Tim Drake. That character came out as bisexual last year in Batman: Urban Legend #6, so the idea that we’d be getting an entire Pride special devoted to Tim was a pretty exciting one....

Dragon Ball Super has dropped a much closer look at the new Red Ribbon Army villains coming in the new movie, Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero! There are a lot of reasons to be excited for the new Dragon Ball Super movie (especially because it’s the first new anime project from the franchise in four years), but one of the major reasons to keep an eye on it is the return of the classic villain group, the Red Ribbon Army, who will be getting the first notable update to their line up in quite some time with some new members....

With 2016’s Swiss Army Man, filmmakers Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, known collectively as “Daniels,” delivered audiences one of the most unconventional, ambitious, exuberant, and life-affirming films of the 2010s, made all the more impressive given that one of its main characters was a farting corpse. The duo has returned to deliver Everything Everywhere All at Once, yet another experience that seemingly defies distinction, yet feels as though it could only come from the minds of such a filmmaking pair and, once again, has completely blown away all preconceived notions of what can be accomplished in a multiversal tale of regret and second chances....

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is only a few days away from airing the “biggest event in the franchise’s history” in “Joestar The Inherited Soul” and fans are left wondering what will be announced for the Joestar family during this streaming event, and it seems as if a registered trademark has emerged that might hint a Stone Ocean announcement is imminent. Following the conclusion of Golden Wind, fans of the Hirohiko Araki franchise have been waiting to see when the story of Jolyne Kujo will be brought to the small screen, more than likely animated by the creative minds at David Production....

Jujutsu Kaisen has detailed Yuta Okkotsu’s origin story in a new character profile released ahead of the new Jujutsu Kaisen 0 movie!

He’s facing off against some of his toughest opponents yet in this class, but in order to keep up has been digging deep into the bag of tricks and experience he’s accumulated over his journeys throughout the various regions over the years....

Samuel L. Jackson took a shot at The Academy Awards after that snub so long ago. Fans will recall that the beloved actor has only been nominated for the Oscars once, back in 1995 for Pulp Fiction. In a recent interview with The Times, he seemed to think that was a shame and a lot of The Academy’s problems were of their own making. As they scramble to bring the 94th edition of the show together, there have been difficulties securing a host....

There are casting rumors and reports floating all over the Internet. Most of them are bogus, but the folks behind the projects involved typically don’t mention them, so people don’t really know what’s real or fake until something official comes out. James Gunn likes to take a different approach, cutting false information about his projects off at the source. This week, there was a rumor online that Gunn was looking to hire a Zac Efron “type” for Adam Warlock in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol....

Monster Hunter Rise is quickly proving to be a big success on Nintendo Switch, so it should come as little surprise that the game will receive a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Spirit event!
