The lovely tribute to Carrie Fisher that helped kick off Star Wars Celebration 2017 on Thursday was mostly made of old footage, interviews, and fond memories – but it also had a little treat for fans wondering what Leia will look like in the next film. Perceptive Star Wars YouTuber Mike Zeroh spotted the understated scene of Fisher walking alongside Star Wars: The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson. Fisher’s estate has granted Lucasfilm permission to use her image in Star Wars 9, so The Last Jedi w

Class is the show Torchwood both could and should have been, largely because its status as a Doctor Who spin-off is a very loose one. As such, rather than tapping into the adventures of the twelfth Doctor, Class has its own story to tell. When Captain Jack turned up in Doctor Who in 2005, he was a happy-go-lucky con man. While Doctor Who’s Jack flirted with anything that moved and was a charming alternative to Christopher Eccleston’s intentionally stern and stark portrayal of the Ninth Doctor, i

Chocolate eggs won’t be the only thing dominating your weekend – Star Wars Celebration Orlando 2017 kicks off on Thursday, April 13 and runs until Sunday, April 16. Star Wars Celebration always holds something back from the public that they only show attendees, and this year, we have a feeling it will be Han Solo-shaped.

This interview was conducted by Xbox: The Official MagazineWhen Halo Wars 2 launched in February 2017, it heralded the eight-year anniversary of its predecessor. OPM: What percentage of 343 personnel were working on Halo Wars 2 relative to the mainline Halo games? We had feedback from Total War players, from RTS players, from Halo Wars players, from Halo [fans]. Does Halo Wars 2 have a longer leash to contribute new ideas to the Halo mythology? I mean, we had a bit of a history with Halo: CE, Ha

After Buffy the Vampire Slayer celebrated its 20th anniversary this March, it’s Sarah Michelle Gellar’s turn for a celebration. That said, it’s tough to binge a run of 144 episodes back-to-back so we’ve whittled them down to 25 of the very best. As Faith (as Buffy) hits Buffy (as Faith), she screams “you’re nothing, disgusting, murderous bitch” at herself, revealing how little she thinks of herself.

Nintendo’s iconic racer Mario Kart has always held technical similarities to its high-speed stablemate F-Zero, and now the reason is clear – Mario Kart was originally conceived as an F-Zero game. reveal the original Mario Kart developers in an exclusive interview with Retro Gamer magazine.

Kyne’s Sacred TrialsIf you’re not a particularly high level yet, this quest is the one for you. I hope you’re good at climbing, because to trigger this quest you’ll have to talk to a chap called Froki Whetted-Blade. Chat to him and he’ll ask you if you’re a true hunter, to which you’ll answer to yes, to which he’ll reply: no, you’re not. I think you should too, especially if you’re aching for a quest with no combat and a fair dose of humour. Related Skyrim articlesThe Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim Spe

Kingsman: The Golden Circle is looking to top the original movie in some major ways, but none is more obvious than its impressive ensemble cast. Entertainment Weekly has some photos of the new cast, and joining the suave young super spy Taron Egerton is Channing Tatum, seen here in full-on cowboy mode, an angry Jeff Bridges (or is he just confused?) Director Matthew Vaughn is back behind the camera for the sequel, and another way he’s looking to top himself is with the James Bond-level gadgets.

Gather up, Clone Club: Orphan Black is coming to an end after this season. Even in this quick trailer, Maslany completely disappears into each character she plays and proves yet again why she’s the best part about this mind-bending mystery show. If you’re a little rusty on the details, here’s a list of everything about Orphan Black you need to know so far .

Earlier today, Bandai Namco uploaded a mysterious teaser trailer to its YouTube page. Demon’s Souls was published by Sony, while Dark Souls 1-3 were published by Bandai Namco – that’s why Demon’s Souls is a PS3 exclusive but Dark Souls games are multiplatform. What we’re seeing could be a Bloodborne sequel / spiritual successor in the same way that Dark Souls is a successor to Demon’s Souls. “Prepare to Dine” could also be a clue to this, since it’s Dark Souls (not Demon’s Souls) that was market

Set photos from Netflix’s The Punisher have given us a good look at Frank Castle’s new getup. And while Castle may have made his debut in Netflix’s version of the MCU sans iconic skull vest, it looks like he’s fully embraced the idea of branding. I’ve gotta say, I preferred the slightly more subdued look Castle was sporting at the end of Daredevil season 2. Did Frank look at his costume and think, “Yeah a giant skull is intimidating and all, plus I kill a lot of people, but I’m afraid I’m just n

The absence of the late Carrie Fisher was not lost on the actors, who fondly recalled working with her on the classic films. After Fisher’s daughter Billie Lourd shared insight into her mother’s life and work, a video tribute to the beloved actress was played. I won’t say more here, because I don’t want to rob it of the impact. Needless to say, if you love Star Wars or thought highly of Princess Leia, you need to watch it:If you’re just catching up, you can watch Star Wars Celebration live along

Pokemon Go is a game heavily featuring eggs and candy collecting – so there really is no holiday more appropriate for a tie-in event than Easter. And from 1pm Pacific / 9pm BST today until April 20, the “Pokemon Go Eggstravaganza” will do just that – adding a greater variety of Pokemon to 2km eggs while also giving you more candy from hatching eggs. If you can’t make 2km hikes a regular part of your day this holiday weekend, don’t worry, there are still a few bonuses in place for you: for starte

Now an in-depth discussion of Project Scorpio dev kits by Gamasutra may provide the best indication yet of the system’s final form – with a few caveats, of course. Here are some conclusions we can draw about the Xbox Scorpio hardware that will hit stores in time for the holidays this year. It looks (relatively) smallThe perspective in this photo is tricky, but it appears that the dev kit for Xbox Scorpio is smaller than the dev kit for the original Xbox One and perhaps only slightly taller than

Star Trek: Discovery is shaping up to be a bold reinvention of a classic series, but one New Generation alumni was offered the chance to boldly go where, uhh, he’s gone before – but turned down the opportunity. Set your phasers to sob. Michael Dorn – better known as Worf from Star Trek: The Next Generation to Trekkies – could have joined the cast as an ancestor to his iconic character but, according to Trek Movie, things fell apart over those sweet, sweet space dollars.

Black Manta and Orn will be joined by Dolph freakin’ Lundgren, with the Rocky IV star playing King Nereus. But just who is Nereus and why will he prove more than a match for Jason Momoa’s Aquaman? Dolph Lundgren going underwater mano a mano with Jason Momoa is worth the price of admission alone – plus Lundgren is, in my estimation, pound-for-pound the best movie villain ever. Here’s everything you need to know about Aquaman and a glimpse at Aquaman underwater in Justice League. Directed by James

But for all of Ragnarok’s apparent freshness, the wider MCU needs a bigger shake-up if it’s going to maintain its edge running through to the other side of next year’s Avengers: Infinity War. Established for the duration of precisely one origin story, he’s now being nudged toward Thor, with an Infinity War appearance virtually inevitable. Plus, we’re now rather losing the anticipation that used to make the gaps between the Marvel movies so much fun. Because Infinity War, as the culmination of th

Tom Cruise’s mission, should he choose to accept it: continue doing his own stunts in Mission: Impossible movies well into his 50s, and look like he’s enjoying every minute of it. If these new set photos are any indication, it looks like he accepted that mission with glee. The 54-yr-old actor does his own stunts on the set of #missionimpossible6 in Paris! I can’t wait to see the mysterious “mind-blowing” sequence in this movie that required him to train for a full year . Directed by Chris McQuar
