HBO's Game of Thrones is now in the realm's rear view, but it'll be a little while longer before it clears our hearts and minds, what with recent documentary "The Last Watch" revealing so many cool facts about the large-scale production.

The real question now is: Given how polarizing Season 8 was for die hard fans, did any episodes from this final run crack the list? You'll have to find out!

With over 130 Superstars already revealed (you can see the Week 1 and Week 2 groups here), WWE and 2K have just announced an avalanche of icons.

Rusev and Lana are back, this time with The Bar - Sheamus and Cesaro - as their tag team addition, to run through this awesome list of legends and trailblazers.

Saïd Taghmaoui, a French-American actor of Moroccan descent known for his recent role in Wonder Woman as Sameer, says he’s been cast as the main villain in the upcoming James Bond film - or at least he had been, before Danny Boyle left the project. Now the casting is in question.

As reported by Variety, Taghmaoui told The National (an Abu Dhabi newspaper) that he had definitely gotten the role under Danny Boyle’s watch, but now the producers don’t know which nationality they want the villain to be.

“We don’t know who the director will be, and the producers don’t know if they’re going to go Russian or Middle East with the baddie right now,” Taghmaoui said. “I literally just received a message saying: ‘If they go Middle East, it’s you. If they go Russian, it’s someone else.’”

The Gifted ended its freshman season with our heroes on the brink of civil war, as Polaris (Emma Dumont) and Andy (Percy Hynes White) chose to join the Hellfire Club's Inner Circle along with the Frost sisters (Skyler Samuels), abandoning their loved ones in the Mutant Underground for a more proactive (i.e. aggressive) stance against the humans who have been oppressing them.

In IGN's exclusive sneak peek promo and key art from the new season, the divisions are obvious, with the promo promising that every character will be forced to pick a side in the upcoming conflict.

The Fortnite 5.4 Content Update has removed the controversial Drum Gun with no warning or notice when the patch went live this morning.

For weeks, Fortnite players have debated the Drum Gun's superb usefulness in a variety of different situations and what lengths Epic should go to balance the weapon. It features a quick and easy spray technique with a fast rate of fire that can mow down nearby enemies and even those at longer ranges.
