DC's Upcoming Movie Slate Is More Exciting Than Marvel's

DC's Upcoming Movie Slate Is More Exciting Than Marvel's

Marvel fans are eagerly anticipating the next Spider-Man movie, especially since it once looked as if the wall-crawler was being completely cut out of the MCU. There's also a fair bit of hype surrounding Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness and Thor: Love and Thunder , which will have Natalie Portman's Jane Foster pick up the hammer. Black Widow is generating interest as well, but there's a feeling from some that the movie has come too l

The inconsistency of the esports scene has resulted in some players leaving over the long-term. Disguised Toast, a popular Hearthstone streamer, recently returned a card reveal to Blizzard, stating that it felt disingenuous revealing an upcoming new card when he has issues with the state of the game as it sta

Eight months later, we can say with absolute certainty that the statement was grown in the deepest levels of Blizzard’s PR dungeon, sprinkled with the highest quality of Corporate brand bullshit, and masked with enough perfume so as to hide its decaying stench long enough for people to forget about the whole thing. Two heroes have been released, and a number of events that focus on selling skins are all players have been given, and there is no reason to expect anything m

There is perhaps one main reason that Starcraft II failed to reach the same monuments levels of popularity. First, there was conflict from the beginning in regards to the ownership of Intellectual Property Rights with the Korean e-Sports Association (KeSPA), and the corresponding ability to broadcast the g

Like Marvel, DC only has two films coming in 2020: Bird of Prey (and the Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) and Wonder Woman 1984 . 2021 will see Robert Pattinson become the next actor to bring the Caped Crusader to the big screen in Matt Reeves' The Batman . Also coming to theaters in 2021 from DC Films is Black Adam , with Dwayne Johnson as the titular hero, and James Gunn's The Suicide Squad sequel. DC's plans for 2022 include DC Super Pets and Aquaman

League might require a bit of grinding to unlock all the possible Champions and Runes needed, which can be frustrating. However, the good thing about the hero rotation which forces players to pick from a certain pool of heroes in the beginning is that you won't be overwhelmed right off the

To no one’s surprise, the long-awaited release of Starcraft II launched with esports as an integral part of Blizzard’s marketing strategy, and yet, it never reached those same peaks as its predeces

DOTA was an overnight success after its introduction, and soon Dota 2 patch 7.31 became as much a reason to play competitive Warcraft III as the base game itself. DOTA became a fixture of several international eSports tournaments, and their designers would go from being mere hobbyists to professional game developers. One key player named "IceFrog" would get hired by Valve to develop Dota2 , while Steve "Guinsoo" Feak and Steve "Pendragon" Mescon would move to create Riot Games and their breakout title, League of Legen

a sign that is in the middle of a forestMarvel Studios has been dominating at the box office for years. Since 2016, Marvel has released seven movies that have grossed at least $1 billion at the worldwide box office. Marvel rakes in the millions with every installment in the MCU, with not a single one being a flop. Each movie has experienced some degree of success. After years of flirting with the top spots in the list of highest-grossing movies of all-time, Marvel finally overtook Avatar with Avengers: Endgame when it brought in $2.7 billion. In another impressive stat, that same list includes several other Marvel Studios movies, such as Avengers: Infinity War , The Avengers , Avengers: Age of Ultron , and Black Panth

Blizzard would have much greater success in Overwatch , a first-person shooter version of the MOBA. Others wouldn’t be nearly as lucky. Paragon , Dawngate , Infinite Crisis , Arena of Fate , and Battleborn all came around the same time and all failed to live up to expectations. Many of them simply failed altogether with servers shutting down a few short years la

Anthem is taking advantage of its sibling status to the beloved Mass Effect series in its Season of Skulls Halloween event. Players will get the chance to use Asari, Krogan, Quarian, and Turian armor during the event, along with new weekly and seasonal challenges and an increased legendary drop rate. The Season of Skulls will also be a bit of a lore drop, with a fog gathering around Fort Tarsis and "intriguing secrets" scattered throughout

Final Fantasy 14 kicked off its All Saints' Wake just a couple of days ago on October 17. To access All Saints' Wake, players must be at least level 15 and complete the "It's Probably Pirates" quest. From there, they can head to Old Gridania and speak to the Adventurers' Guild Investigator for more information. The event gives players a chance to earn plenty of in-game items, including the new Circus Ahriman mount and a few favorites from previous ye
