Studio Ghibli’s latest film, The Boy and the Heron, released on Blu-ray last week.

The steelbook matches the aesthetics of previous Studio Ghibli limited-edition releases, but it’s the first 4K Blu-ray from the beloved studio. It’s actually the second Hayao Miyazaki film to receive a 4K release, as The Castle of Cagliostro, Miyazaki’s directorial debut, released on 4K a few years back. It’s a great animated comedy, but it initially released in 1979, years before the formation of …
Bloodborne Figma Action Figure Gets Big Discount At Amazon
Sony might not be ready to bankroll a Bloodborne remaster for PS5, but who really needs it when you can make your own Yharnam adventures? Thanks to this affordable Figma action figure of the game’s titular Hunter–which is on sale at Amazon for $86.30 (was $116)–you can tackle terrifying new bosses like your uninterested cat or hyperactive dog instead. Or you can figure out a great pose for this collectible, lock it in, and proudly display it.

BioShock infinite- Burial at Sea – Episode 2 Review
In life, we make connections with others. We protect the ones we love as they protect us, creating ties that bind us for life. We can’t forcibly create those bonds, and once created, they are not easily broken.
Burial at Sea – Episode 2 is about those kinds of personal connections. Like the disappointing first episode, this concluding chapter ties the Columbia of BioShock Infinite to the Rapture of BioShock and BioShock 2–yet it begins in neither city. Instead, you are in Paris, though it is not a Paris that ever was, but rather a Paris so perfect, so ideal, that even the most imaginative daydreamers could not have thought up a place of such sunny beauty. And no longer are you Infinite protagonist Booker DeWitt, but instead his talented ward Elizabeth, who had long dreamed of visiting La Ville-Lumière. Your initial stroll along the city’s sublime terraces takes you past smiling couples and friendly onlookers, many of whom know you by name. This glorious opening recalls your …

Call Of Duty- Warzone Invisible Player Glitch Pops Up Again, Helicopters Removed
Certain helicopters are temporarily gone from Call of Duty: Warzone after players discovered they could become invisible using them. The mini-gun variant of the helicopter specifically has been yanked from Warzone for the time being. This isn’t the first time this sort of issue has happened, either, and a similar temporary fix was needed then.
Developer Treyarch is currently investigating the issue but there is no word yet on when the mini-gun helicopters will return to Warzone. The bug that occurred in 2020 also prompted Treyarch to remove helicopters temporarily.

John Wick- Chapter 4 Trailer Revealed At CinemaCon
While the next John Wick entry, simply titled John Wick: Chapter 4, won’t hit theaters until next March, star Keanu Reeves and director Chad Stahelski gave a first look at the movie during CinemaCon. Deadline had a brief description along with the speeches made by the creative team.
The trailer opens with John Wick training in a gym in Japan. We see Laurence Fishburne’s Bowery King enter asking if John is ready. Wick replies with a chilled “yeah.”
In a swirl of violence, we can hear Ian McShane’s Winston offering words of solace to John. “I want you to find peace, John,” he says. “The only path this leads to is death.”
Lionsgate Chairman Joe Drake introduced Reeves and Stahelski on stage, praising the action. “Chad, as you might know, was a stuntman first. It’s rare that people go from driving off cliffs to sitting in the director’s chair,” he said. “Usually, it’s the other way around.”
Drake continued with how he thought the franchise reinvented the action g…
Jotun- Valhalla Edition Switch Review – A Slight Downgrade
Imagine the bleakness of the man versus giant creatures gameplay of Shadow of the Colossus as a definitively Nordic tale, and you have a general idea of what Jotun is. Sprinkle in a little bit of Dark Souls’ difficulty and a malevolent sense of challenge, and you’re closer to hitting the bullseye. Now imagine all of that hand-drawn in a style somewhere between Dragon’s Lair and Princess Mononoke, and you’ve got Jotun.
Boiling the game down to its disparate parts does the game a mild disservice, though. In execution, Jotun is a perfect storybook, a game that seems ripped from the imagination of a Viking child being told tales of warriors of old facing down their gods. It’s a wonderfully wild, vibrant bedtime story told with fire and verve, even when the game is at its most stark and lonely.
Jotun tells the tale of Thora, a Viking shield maiden who falls from her boat during a voyage and drowns. Because passage to Valhalla is only gra…

Jurassic World- Dominion – Here's What The Dinosaur Spit Was Made Of
One of the most memorable moments of the entire Jurassic Park/Jurassic World franchise is when Nedry (Wayne Knight) is trying to escape the park and island after stealing dino DNA, and he comes across a dilophosaurus, who spits all over him and eventually eats him. Well, everyone’s favorite spitting dinosaur is back, and in the home release of Jurassic World: Dominion, we finally learn how they make the spit.
In one of the special features, titled “Spit Take: The Return of the Dilophosaurus,” the cast and crew discuss the iconic spitting dino, which includes some behind the scenes on what the spit is made from and how they shoot it onto the cast.
“This is our main spit substance, a material called methylcellulose, which is a food thickening agent, which they use in milkshakes at your local burger joint,” said Chris Clarke, the special effects senior technician on Dominion. “I noticed in the original film, [the dilophosaurus] first spits, and…
LBX- Little Battlers eXperience Review
Level-5’s LBX: Little Battlers eXperience is a simplistic RPG based on a popular kid’s show about tiny merchandisable robots. But deep within, what you find is a complex and entertaining action-RPG that is never fully betrayed by the nature of its premise. While LBX’s clunky design choices often hold it back, it surprisingly exceeds initial impressions with charming presentation, satisfying combat, and loads of deep customization.
LBX’s story takes place in a futuristic world where children play with LBX, which are miniature robots purchased at retail used to fight in competitive battles. It follows the adventures of Van Yamano, a child–who after being given a powerful top-secret LBX–becomes involved in a plot to save the world with his friends. Despite having occasional cheesy melodramatic narrative beats, LBX’s story manages to remain interesting thanks to a well-paced narrative, charming characters, and an unexpectedly sympathetic villain. The …
