Sophie Turner Drops a Hint About Sansa’s Fate in Game of Thrones Season 8
Sophie Turner, the actress that portrays Sansa in HBO's Game of Thrones, has hinted that her character will develop a more action-oriented role in the show's final season.
In a video interview with Gold Derby, Turner suggested that she has always seen Sansa as a warrior and that Season 8 shows this properly manifesting itself.
“I always saw something of a warrior in Sansa that I don’t think other people really saw,” Turner said. “I always had the feeling that she was learning and adapting, and at some point or another, it was going to manifest itself somehow, and she manifested it into being a warrior. It felt really satisfying when it happened, and I’m really happy where this storyline for her has ended up.”
Avengers: Endgame’s Rotten Tomatoes Score Revealed
To quote Doctor Strange, we are in the endgame now. Ever since Iron Man hit theaters back in 2008, Marvel Studios has had an impressive 11-year run when it comes to positive reviews from critics, which contributes to a movie's overall aggregate score at Rotten Tomatoes. Marvel's newest big-budget adventure, Avengers: Endgame, is slaying with a certified "fresh" Tomatometer score of 97%.
Endgame's 97% "fresh" score ties it with Black Panther as Rotten Tomatoes' highest-scored/best-reviewed MCU movie.
You can check out our Avengers: Endgame review right here, where we say it "is easily the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s most ambitious, emotional, and affecting film to date, somehow managing to tie up more than a decade of storytelling in a confident (and mostly coherent) climax - a hurdle that many other blockbuster franchises have stumbled over in their final runs."
Fallout 4 Teased Fallout 76 in the Very Beginning of the Game
As we've known for awhileFallout 76 was right in front of us all along.
At the very beginning of Fallout 4, right before nuclear war drives your character into Vault 111, a television program can be seen touting the debut of Vault 76 in honor of America's 300th anniversary. Redditors have been highlighting this tease recently, which is something IGN pointed to in our detailed history of Vault 76.
"Since debuting Vault 76 last year, in honor of America's Tercentenary, Vault-Tec continues to expand with plans for well over 100 Vaults around the country," the news report says in Fallout 4, shortly before the main character must evacuate with their family.
Disney World’s New Toy Story Land Captures the Joy of Being a Toy
If you pass through the entrance of Walt Disney World’s new Toy Story Land expansion, a cast member will greet you with an enthusiastic “Welcome, toys!” That’s because the 11-acre addition to Disney’s Hollywood Studios park that opened Saturday is actually a recreation of Andy’s backyard where guests are invited to play as honorary toys. Here's what we thought of our visit to the new park area.
Click through this slideshow for a peek at what to expect.
Toy Story Land Overview
Disney Imagineers have run rampant with the idea of making fans feel like little playthings in a larger-than-life world. A 20-foot tall Woody stands at the expansion’s entrance, while other oversized details – from a towering bottle of Elmer’s Glue to a Tinker Toy container the size of a barn silo – sell the illusion throughout the land.
Activision Job Listing Points to Work on Games for ‘Next Gen Platforms’
E3 2018 saw the reveal of what are probably the first three next-gen games–Starfield, The Elder Scrolls 6, and Halo: Infinite–and now a fourth may have emerged. An Infinity Ward job listing first reported by Charlie Intel references a "new, exciting, unannounced title for multiple next-gen platforms."
The job listing is for a temporary narrative scripter to work on what is almost certainly a future Call of Duty game. Infinity Ward appears to be looking for someone to help keep Call of Duty's long-standing commitment to spectacular set pieces alive, as evidenced through multiple references to "cinematic" work in the job listing.
Breaking Bad Creator ‘desperately’ wants to see Walt and Jesse in Better Call Saul
In an exclusive interview with EW on Breaking Bad's 10th-anniversary reunion, creator Vince Gilligan said he desperately wants to bring Walter White (Bryan Cranston) and Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) into Better Call Saul somehow.
"I desperately want to see both of them on Better Call Saul. Peter wants it, the writers do, the actors do," Gilligan said. "
t wouldn’t feel as satisfying if it was just a cameo or an Alfred Hitchcock walkthrough. I think we’ve waited long enough. We damn well better have a good reason for them to show up. I just hope we figure it out because I’ve got to hear, ‘Yeah, b***h!’ one more time."
