Harvest Moon: One World Announced for Nintendo Switch
Hamilton Movie to Be Released on Disney+ in July
The movie is not a film recreation of Lin-Manuel Miranda's famous stage musical, but a recording of the theatrical performance itself, allowing those who have been unable to attend the show in person to view it from home. Earlier this year it was reported that Disney paid a huge sum of money for the rights for Hamilton, and that the company planned to release the film version in 2021. However, this latest announcement reveals that plans have changed and that we can expect to see the film within a matter of months. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=new-movies-coming-to-vod-early&captions=true"] Quarantine restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic have meant many people have been unable to attend theatrical Hamilton performances. This led to John Krasinski bringing together the Hamilton cast for a video call to recreate a number from the show online. [poilib element="accentDivider"]It’s only a matter of time...

The CW Fall 2020 TV Schedule
Renewed and New TV Shows on The CW
The CW is benching all of its biggest returning series - including The Flash, Riverdale, and Batwoman - until 2021, along with its four new shows, Superman & Lois, The Republic of Sarah, and reboots of Kung Fu and Walker, Texas Ranger. The only returning drama on The CW's fall 2020 schedule is the back half of Supernatural's final season, which has seven remaining episodes still to air, two of which have yet to be filmed. Supergirl will also be delayed until after star Melissa Benoist returns from maternity leave, with a return date yet to be determined. CW boss Mark Pedowitz told reporters that he hopes filming will start in September for the majority of the network's scripted shows to get them ready for a midseason launch, while Supernatural will need to resume production on its final two episodes in late summer or early fall - although if that doesn't prove possible, the final seven episodes will be rescheduled. "Everybody ... wants to end 15 years the right way," he said. "We'll wait it out. We are very much attached to this." Instead, The CW will be filling its fall lineup with series acquired from (and cancelled by) other networks, including DC Universe's Swamp Thing, and CBS All Access' Tell Me a Story, as well as unscripted series like Whose Line Is It Anyway and Penn & Teller: Fool Us.

Fox Fall 2020 TV Schedule
Renewed and New TV Shows on Fox
Fox has renewed reality shows The Masked Singer and Masterchef Junior, along with animated comedies The Simpsons, Family Guy, Bob's Burgers, and Bless the Harts. With animated shows able to continue production and reality shows more easily able to be filmed without audiences and with social distancing precautions on set, this makes the lineup a little more secure from coronavirus-related delays. New series premiering on Fox this fall include Next, "a propulsive, fact-based thriller about the emergence of a deadly, rogue artificial intelligence that combines pulse-pounding action with a layered examination of how technology is invading our lives," starring John Slattery, and Filthy Rich, "a southern Gothic family soap in which wealth, power and religion collide – with outrageously soapy results. When the patriarch (Gerald McRaney) of a mega-rich Southern family, famed for creating a wildly successful Christian television network, dies in a plane crash, his wife (Kim Cattrall) and family are stunned to learn that he fathered three illegitimate children, all of whom are written into his will, threatening their family name and fortune." Both shows have already been filmed and were initially planned to debut as part of the 2019-2020 season. Fox will also be the broadcast home of Bad Boys spinoff LA's Finest, which follows Syd Burnett (Gabrielle Union), "last seen in Miami taking down a drug cartel, who has seemingly left her complicated past behind to become an LAPD detective. Paired with a new partner, Nancy McKenna (Jessica Alba), a working mom with an equally complex history, Syd is forced to confront how her unapologetic lifestyle may be masking a greater personal secret." The series previously aired on Spectrum last year. And Fox will offer the broadcast debut of Cosmos: Possible Worlds, the third installment of the science docuseries produced by Seth MacFarlane and hosted by Neil deGrasse Tyson, which aired on National Geographic earlier this year. At midseason, Fox will air drama series 911 and spinoff 911: Lonestar, animated series Duncanville, and reality series Hell's Kitchen, along with new comedy series Call Me Kat, starring and executive produced by Mayim Bialik, and animated shows The Great North and Housebroken. Fox shows that have yet to be renewed or cancelled include Prodigal Son, The Resident, Last Man Standing, Outmatched, Almost Family, and Deputy, while Empire already aired its final season.

Legends Of Runeterra Review – Much Ado About Nautilus
Runeterra is the world of League of Legends, Riot’s MOBA that has arguably experienced a Golden Age of esports in the past few years. The MOBA has undergone various lore overhauls, but centralized all of its bits and pieces in 2016 to come up with a vision for Runeterra and its competing factions, as well as the backstories of the game’s champions. The latest step in fleshing out this world is Legends of Runeterra, Riot Games’ flagship contribution to the current online card game market--with DNA that’s a highly entertaining splice job between streamlined design sensibilities and touches that harken back to the original card game great, Magic: The Gathering.
The realm of Runeterra feels fully realized here, and part of that is how the game revolves around the various in-universe factions that are currently playable: Piltover & Zaun, Bilgewater, Demacia, Freljord, Ionia, Noxus, and the Shadow Isles. You’re not playing for rounds of ale at a tavern; this feels like a conflict of a uniquely larger scale because of the game’s insistence on you not embodying a hero but instead commanding them.
Each faction has these heroes, though they’re called champions. They’re souped-up cards representative of characters from League of Legends who are somewhere between Legendaries in Hearthstone and Planeswalkers in Magic: The Gathering--game-changing because they’re stronger than your average unit, but not game-breaking. The factions have their own unique playstyles that span the whole spectrum from aggro to control, spell-heavy to flood-dependent, and more. The champions themselves all buy into each faction’s playstyle fantasy, with flashy animations that depict their unique personalities and strengths.
