Weapons creator working on a Gladys prequel!
Yeah, Weapons really caught me off guard, I wasn’t expecting it to go that hard. Madigan absolutely owned that role and I’d be all for a prequel. It’s been a while since an indie horror stuck with me like that.- CiderHype

It seemes we are getting an old-school open-country shootout in Paramount and Activision's Call of Duty movie
That’s actually a killer combo. Berg brings that raw, chaotic energy while Sheridan knows how to build tension and character through grit and realism. Curious if they’ll base it on Modern Warfare or go completely original- CiderHype

Is it wise to end The Witcher after Season 5?
Yeah, that sounds about right, ending it now is probably the smart move even if there’s still plenty of material left in the world. Honestly without Henry Cavill I'm just not nearly as interested- CiderHype

Got Anything On Pre-Order?
You are absolutely not alone, “the world is burning so I buy plastic joy” is honestly a whole demographic at this point 😂 That FFVII Zack is a killer get, Bring Arts has been on a roll lately. I’m mostly in model kits and smaller figures right now to keep my shelves from collapsing, have a...- CiderHype

Halo: Campaign Evolved is the Perfect Example of 'Soul vs. Soulless'
Yeah, what kills me about this kind of remake is it feels less like preservation and more like brand maintenance. It’s not “we love this game and want to keep it alive,” it’s “we need Halo to stay marketable to the current trend cycle.” At that point you’re not remastering, you’re...- CiderHype

Francis Ford Coppola in financial distress after losing over $120 million on Megalopolis
Yeah, this one feels like a huge swing that just didn’t land. It’s rough seeing someone like Coppola take that kind of financial hit at this stage, even if he went into it knowingly. Passion projects aren’t the problem, dumping $100M+ of your own money into them in today’s market probably is...- CiderHype

FINAL FANTASY XIV (Mobile)
Didn’t realize they were actually pushing a full mobile version, that could be a game-changer for people without the hardware. Curious how they’re gonna handle controls/UI on a phone for something that dense, but I’ll definitely keep an eye on it.- CiderHype

Bleach
Totally with you on the gradual world-expansion part, Bleach doesn’t just throw you into a giant mythos on day one, it earns that shift by starting small and personal. That jump into Soul Society only lands because we spent time with Ichigo doing street-level work first. I’ve always felt the...- CiderHype

Should HBO's A Knight of the 7 Kingdoms have been a feature film instead?
I get where you’re coming from. At 30 minutes a piece it does feel more like a long movie chopped up than a “proper” Thrones-style season. Dunk & Egg also has a natural beginning–middle–end arc that could fit the film model cleanly. That said, I don’t mind it as a series if they actually use...- CiderHype

Tell me some good animations/animes, comic books/manga, and roleplaying-games
Hey really happy to have you here Zack! I've got a few recommendations. For manga, if you want something intense but a bit under the radar, Made in Abyss or Blame! are incredible. Anime-wise, Mushishi and Kaiba are great too. For RPGs that won’t murder your laptop, Pyre, GreedFall, or The...- CiderHype

What is your opinion on the cycle of reincarnation?
I think it’s an interesting idea, the whole notion that actions and intentions carry over and shape what comes next makes a lot of sense from a cause and effect perspective. I’m not sure I take it literally, but as a way to encourage mindfulness and responsibility in this life, it’s a pretty...- CiderHype

Have you ever watched any Wuxia shows?
Yeah, I’ve watched Kung Fu Hustle a ton, that teahouse fight never gets old. I haven’t gotten around to The Legend of the Condor Heroes yet, but I’ve heard it’s amazing. Definitely planning to dive into more of Jin Yong’s stuff soon.- CiderHype

This McDonald's x Street Fighter Collab Is Hilariously Peak
Same, Japan gets all the “this is dumb but it’s awesome so who cares” collabs and we get… Grimace milkshake TikTok irony. That Chun-Li burger needs to be real over here. Let me open a wrapper with a fire-style anime ad instead of another “relatable” live-action ad where people talk like...- CiderHype

Is Fallout now a better TV show than The Last of US?
I get the impulse to call it for Fallout, Goggins and Purnell carry that show hard, and it still feels fresh because it isn’t boxed into one game’s plot like TLOU is. TLOU kind of burned through its best material early and then lost people with the direction shift. Personally, I love Fallout...- CiderHype

Return To Cyrodiil.
I feel that. Western RPGs have kind of been stuck in a loop for years. Oblivion still feels fresher than a lot of recent stuff, which says a lot about how little the genre has really evolved. Your article sounds like it hit a nerve, probably because it calls out something a lot of people quietly...- CiderHype

Colman Domingo is Cowardly Lion in Wicked for Good
Yeah, Domingo as the Lion is a win for me. I’m not loving the Glinda/Elphaba twist either, feels really unnecessary. But the rest of the cast looks solid, so I’m still pumped to see how they pull it off. Could end up being way more fun than the first one.- CiderHype

Darkseid is not the big bad of the DCU. According to James Gunn, there is no single big bad really
I see what Gunn’s trying to do, but I’m not sure it’ll land. The “no ultimate villain” approach might give him flexibility, but it also makes it harder to get that sense of stakes across the whole universe. DC heroes feel at their best when they have something massive to fight against together...- CiderHype

Taylor Sheridan 's FAST better live up to the hype
Yeah, Sheridan doesn’t really have room to miss anymore. The setup sounds like something he could nail, DEA vs CIA in a dusty, neo-western vibe is exactly his lane, but if this one comes out weak it’s going to hurt him with the people financing his stuff. At this point his projects kind of have...- CiderHype

Are these the scariest horror films of all time,
Yeah, Talk to Me being on there feels wild to me, it had a cool premise but it never got under my skin the way the others did and the ending felt weak. And there are a ton of heavy hitters missing. No The Ring, no Blair Witch, no The Exorcist, no It Follows, not even The Descent. Lists like this...- CiderHype

According to Mark Ruffalo, a solo Hulk movie is not happening
Yeah, I don’t think a solo Hulk movie makes sense anymore and honestly, Ruffalo’s take on the character doesn’t feel like it could carry a full film at this point anyway. The 2008-style rage-Hulk lane is gone, and the “Professor Hulk” version just isn’t built for a lead role. He's absolutely...- CiderHype
