What’s Next for Kong and Godzilla?
Following the box office success of Kong: Skull Island, it's probably a good time to take a look at what Legendary and Warner Bros. have in store for us on the big screen, monster-wise.
With 2014's Godzilla as the starting point, and Godzilla and Kong set to clash in 2020, the MonsterVerse is officially underway, and while there are only a couple of films announced so far, there's a ton of monsters to play around with if the intention is to truly build up a new killer Kaiju collection. Yes, the MonsterVerse is officially combining, in reboot form, the former Godzilla and King Kong franchises.

Ubisoft Bans Over 1,000 For Honor Players
Ubisoft has issued bans to players using an AFK farming in For Honor.
Via Reddit, Ubisoft says its handed out around 1,500 3-day bans, and around 4,000 warnings to players who’ve been detected using the exploit.
Ubisoft previously stated such action would take place if players continued to violate the Code of Conduct, and further detailed what AFK farming looks like.
"This week we wanted to give your more visibility about our policy against players who are 'AFK Farming' the For Honor Battlefields," said Ubisoft. "For those unfamiliar with the practice, players are able to go AFK (away from keyboard) and keep their in-game character moving throughout a match (ex. tying a rubber band on the control stick), garnering end-game rewards and progression without actually playing.

Matrix Reboot in The Works at Warner Bros., Says Report
A new report says that Warner Bros. is in the early stages of bringing back the seminal 1999 sci-flick, The Matrix.
Sources close to THR say that Zak Penn (The Incredible Hulk, Ready Player One) is currently in talks with the company to write a treatment, and there is "potential interest" in Michael B. Jordan (Creed, Black Panther) to star in the reboot.
According to the publication, The Matrix creators the Wachowski siblings are not at all involved in the project, but Warner would want their blessing - at least - were it to move forward.
During his press tour for John Wick 2, original Matrix star Keanu Reeves said he would be open to returning to another instalment provided the Wachowskis wrote and directed. "“They would have to write it and direct it", Reeves told the AV Club, "and then we’d see what the story is, but yeah, I dunno, that’d be weird, but why not?”

Every Major MCU Movie Villain So Far
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has become a pretty crowded place over the past nine years, and that's only going to continue as the movies build towards 2018's Avengers: Infinity War. We've now seen dozens of iconic Marvel characters come to life on the big screen, heroes and villains alike.
But it's the latter group we want to spotlight right now. We've put together this slideshow feature breaking down all the major villains to appear in the MCU films to date, as well as a few more who will be making their debuts as Phase 3 continues with Thor: Ragnarok, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Black Panther and more. Note that we're only focusing on the movies here and not Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. or the various Marvel Netflix series. The list is long enough as it is (but we'll get to those TV guys soon enough).
