Sam Raimi is showing his support for Alfred Molina's Doc Ock appearing in Spider-Man: No Way Home. Molina's beloved interpretation of the character originates from the movie Spider-Man 2, which was released in 2004 and directed by Raimi. When asked about the return of his classic villain by SYFY WIRE, Raimi praised the new movie's animation.

"That was beautiful," Raimi said. "He looks great, the animation’s great. I’m assuming it’s not puppeted because when we did Doc Ock, we had puppets and animation for his octopus tentacles. But it was smooth and powerful and I loved his costume they kept [from the original]. I think it’s gonna be a great movie."

Spider-Man: No Way Home is scheduled to hit theaters in December and is directed by Jon Watts. Raimi returned to Marvel as the director of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which hits theaters in March 2022. It's Raimi's fourth movie based on Marvel comics after the three Spider-Man movies starring Tobey Maguire.

When asked by SYFY WIRE if he could reveal any Doctor Strange 2 details, Raimi had to be tight-lipped. "They won’t let me say anything," Raimi said. "I guess not... I’m sorry."

It's a good time to be a Spider-Man fan. A Spider-Man fan recently recreated the Spider-Man 2 movie poster using assets from the Spider-Man video games on PlayStation 5 and an MCU special is coming to Disney+ in November.

In the meantime, the estate of Marvel artist Steve Ditko is trying to regain the copyrights to Spider-Man, Doctor Strange and more Marvel characters.

YouTube TV is in the middle of negotiations with NBC to extend their contract. If a deal isn't reached by Thursday, then YouTube TV loses NBC channels and will reduce its price.

An update on YouTube Official Blog was posted on Sunday. If YouTube TV and NBC don't agree on terms then the monthly price of YouTube TV will drop from $64.99 to $54.99. The press release from YouTube implies that NBC is treating them unfairly.

"Our ask is that NBCU treats YouTube TV like any other TV provider," the blog post states. "In other words, for the duration of our agreement, YouTube TV seeks the same rates that services of a similar size get from NBCU so we can continue offering YouTube TV to members at a competitive and fair price."

YouTube TV will lose NBC's Sunday Night Football and other NBC programs like Saturday Night Live. Meanwhile, NBC's parent company is busy working on their new streaming service Peacock. Peacock currently broadcasts Sunday Night Football and will live-stream new episodes of Saturday Night Live as they air on NBC.

In IGN's YouTube TV review, we praised the number of channels but, "YouTube TV feels like it isn't adapting, and that's not entirely its own fault. It's saddled with the same problems that are dooming standard cable television: it is expensive, you are forced to pay for channels you don't want, the resolution is bad, and the viewing experience is intertwined with advertising."

New TV shows this fall include NBC's Ordinary Joe and La Brea as well as other network shows like The Wonder Years and CSI. There are also big streaming shows to look forward to including Hawkeye and The Book of Boba Fett.

Curb Your Enthusiasm aired its season 10 finale on HBO in March 2020. Curb's season 10 was nominated at the Emmy Awards for Outstanding Comedy Series but lost to the final season of Schitt's Creek. Every season of Curb besides the first season has been nominated for the top comedy series award at the Emmys but it has yet to win.

The show stars David as a fictional version of himself with Jeff Garlin, J.B. Smoove and Richard Lewis in supporting roles. Lewis posted on Twitter in April that he was only able to appear in one episode this season due to surgery recovery.

HBO Max released a lot of new titles in September including new movies directed by James Wan and Clint Eastwood as well as the third season of Doom Patrol.

Check out IGN's list of the top 100 TV shows of all time to see if Curb Your Enthusiasm made the cut.

As part of today's hardware event, Amazon announced Astro, a home robot that costs $999.

Astro is a small household robot that features a rotating screen with eyes and can move around using wheels that are attached to the base. Amazon says Astro is aimed to appear friendly and animated and can patrol around your house. Unlike some smart home devices, Astro is designed to navigate around objects and avoid bumping into things such as pets and stairs thanks to intelligent motion.

Astro can do a ton of commands, including ones found in other Echo devices such as sending you reminders, making a video call, and telling you the weather or the time. But the household bot can also do unique actions, such as delivering something like a beverage or another item to someone else in the house on your behalf.

Astro can also be used for security purposes. Astro will alert owners if it detects an unrecognized person or hears certain sounds when you are not home, and with a Ring Protect Pro subscription, Astro will investigate activity and save videos onto Ring's cloud storage system.

The robot comes equipped with microphones, cameras, and sensors but if privacy is an issue for you, Amazon confirmed that you can turn these features off whenever you'd like. Owners of an Astro robot will also be able to set "out of bound zones," which will set limits on where the robot is not allowed to go in the house.

Amazon did not mention when Astro will be available for purchase publicly, but just like the Ring Always Home Cam, those interested can apply for a chance to preorder the "Day 1 Edition" of Astro.

Netflix is continuing its foray into video games with three new titles aimed at casual audiences. However, most people around the world still can't try out the service.

As reported by TechCrunch, Netflix subscribers in Spain, Italy, and Poland can access three new games starting today: Shooting Hoops, Teeter Up, and Card Blast. Users in these regions can find the titles under a new 'Games' tab in the Netflix app, but only on Android devices.

Users will not have to pay extra to access games on Netflix. The games added today also won't include ads or in-app purchases, which is consistent with Netflix's previously detailed mobile game strategy.

This project is still in its experimental phase for Netflix. This summer, the streaming giant said, "We think the time is right to learn more about how our members value games.” For now, the company is focusing mostly on mobile games, as well as interactive shows in the vein of Black Mirror: Bandersnatch.

Netflix previously launched an early version of this service in Poland to subscribers with an Android device. The library originally included Stranger Things: The Game and Stranger Things 3: The Game.

Earlier this year, Netflix was reportedly approaching industry veterans to help the company with its expansion into video games. They eventually brought veteran video game executive Mike Verdu on as the new vice president of game development at Netflix.

On the television side, Netflix has also been interested in video game properties. Following the success of season one of The Witcher, Netflix is also investing in shows based on Sonic the Hedgehog, Assassin's Creed, Resident Evil, and more.
