Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker Movie Clip Revealed
The first clip from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker has been released online, showing more footage from the Pasaana speeder chase that has been teased in previous promotional materials for Episode IX.
The 30-second desert pursuit shows Resistance heroes Rey, Finn, Poe, Chewbacca, C-3PO and BB-8 as fugitives on the run from a band of bike-riding First Order Stormtroopers, who unleash an upgrade to their armour, as they blast off to the skies using newly-fitted jetpacks.
One by one, the white-suited soldiers launch into the air, as Chewie lets out a Wookiee roar to alert his unsuspecting teammates of the new threat. C-3PO translates, exclaiming, "Oh, they fly now!", while Finn and Poe echo the protocol droid's surprise at the Stormtrooper's advanced capabilities.

Take-Two Explains Why It Hasn’t Made a GTA Movie Yet, and Probably Won’t
Take-Two has revealed why there hasn’t been a Grand Theft Auto movie or TV series yet, and why there probably won’t ever be.
In a recent interview with TheWrap, Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick discussed why the game publisher hasn’t put GTA onto the big screen.
“Part of it is, if we were to do something like that, we’d want to have complete creative control to make sure we expressed
in the way we wanted - and that would mean we’d need to finance that motion picture,” Zelnick said.
He then clarified that funding a movie or any other form of on-screen adaptation isn’t the issue, it’s that “we don’t have the corporate expertise to do it, because only a handful of people inside Take-Two have ever worked in that business.”
Cyberpunk 2077 Will Probably Come to PS5 and Scarlett, But Not at Launch
CD Projekt Red plans on bringing Cyberpunk 2077 to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Scarlett, but doesn’t expect it to be ready for the launch of those next-gen consoles. The company also discussed the game’s multiplayer version and its possible monetization.
Speaking at CD Projekt Red’s earnings conference for Q3 2019, senior vice president for business development Michał Nowakowski answered a question from the audience about Cyberpunk 2077 coming to next-gen consoles.
“One may probably safely assume that at some point we may do something with next-gen, however we cannot really be very specific what that may be, when exactly that may be,” Nowakowski said.
Elon Musk’s Rick and Morty Cameo Finally Explains His ‘Elon Tusk’ Joke
Warning: this article contains minor spoilers for Rick and Morty: Season 4, Episode 3.
Rick and Morty's fourth season is crammed full of celebrity guest cameos, but perhaps none as surprising as the big guest star in "One Crew Over the Crewcoo's Morty." None other than Tesla, Inc. CEO and co-founder Elon Musk stopped by to help Rick Sanchez hatch his latest ridiculous scheme. And in the process, Musk finally explained the origin of a bizarre Twitter joke from earlier this year.
Musk voices a character named Elon Tusk, who's basically just an alternate universe version of himself with large tusks jutting from his lower jaw. But as Elon Tusk himself admits, the tusks have kept his ego and check and make him a more agreeable ally than his non-tusked counterpart would have been. Rick and Morty recruit Elon Tusk to carry out a very complicated heist operation (read our Rick and Morty review for more on how that turned out).
