There’s Going to Be a Blade Video Game
Following the success of the Spider-Man video games, Marvel has got a lot of independent titles in the works. There’s going to be a Wolverine game, which should be awesome. I believe there’s also a Captain America and Black Panther game in the works. So why not add Blade?
I don’t know the developers off the top of my head, so I don’t know what type of game this is going to be. Action adventure? A roguelike? I don’t know, but by all means, make a Blade game. Just like they’ll make a Blade movie one of those days. I’ll probably be on board!

TV Trailer Thursday
A whole bunch of trailers for upcoming streaming shows were released this past weekend, and I’ve been waiting for a free day to share them all with you. That day has come! So prepare yourselves for my thoughts on these various upcoming shows!
First up is the trailer for the new Fallout TV show. It looks like Fallout, that’s for sure.
I love the Fallout games, so I’m definitely going to be watching this show. But I don’t really like this trailer. I feel like this is a poorly made trailer. It doesn’t do a lot to establish the world or the unique elements of the Fallout world. It has a ton of recognizable Fallout elements, for sure, but I feel like they could have been framed better in a first trailer, to hook general audiences onto this one. We fans know the concept and recognize the stuff, but what will general audiences make of this trailer?
Anyway, Fallout the show comes to Amazon Prime on April 12.
Next up is the second season of the Halo TV show, a show I actually very much enjoyed.
This one looks good. It shows off a lot of Halo stuff, but it’s a second season trailer, and we already know what’s going on. This trailer successfully teases some cool space stuff, and some cool drama and the like, along with a ton of alien and energy sword action. So I’m in. I liked the first season. Granted, I’m no Halo maniac. I don’t know the lore or demand authority to the games. So I’m in for season two!
Halo season 2 comes to Paramount+ on Feb. 8.
Next is the third season of Hilda! I love this cartoon!
I didn’t know Hilda was getting a third season! So seeing this trailer pop up was exciting news. I have no idea the Hilda release schedule. Let me go look real quick. Jeez louise! Season one and season two came out in 2018 and 2020! And there was a film in 2021! It’s been many long years and one pandemic recovery since we had new Hilda! Well hot damn, bring on the new season! This show is so much fun and so adorable! I highly recommend it for people of all ages.
Hilda returns to Netflix for season three on Dec. 7…holy cow! That’s today! How exciting!
Lastly, a trailer I also randomly stumbled across, Carol & The End of the World.
I like this trailer. I like this look and feel. A dumpy, middle-aged woman gets to be the star of a show for once. And it’s an end of the world show, so that’s neat! Martha Kelly is great. I loved her in Baskets. And this looks to be a good showcase of her talents. I’m definitely looking forward to this one and hope it holds up to its excellent trailer.
Carol & The End of the World comes to Netflix on Dec. 15, so next week. Here’s hoping!

6 Things I Want to See in Grand Theft Auto VI
I’ve been writing this blog for a very long time. I did a search of Grand Theft Auto articles to see if I’d already done this list, and it turns out I started writing this blog even before Grand Theft Auto V came out more than a decade ago! Holy cow! Anyway, I found out that I hadn’t done this list specifically! We got the GTA VI teaser trailer yesterday, so let’s celebrate!
Between the new trailer and some earlier leaks, we already know a bit about the game. It’s a return to Vice City, the Miami stand-in. And we’ve got the first ever female protagonist for a mainstream GTA game. I really wanted that, so awesome! Though, personally, I had no interest in returning to Vice City. I wouldn’t mind a new location outside of Vice City, Los Santos or Liberty City. Heck, I’d even take a game in Las Venturas, the Las Vegas stand-in. But hey, I’m very flexible and I’m sure the setting will be awesome!
Join me after the jump for what I’d like to see in Grand Theft Auto VI, from gameplay elements to open world possibilities. And feel free to share your own game hopes and dreams in the comments below.
Read the rest of this entryGrand Theft Auto VI is On The Horizon
We were all young once. We all played Grand Theft Auto V when it came out a decade ago, on our X-Box 360s and whatever. Those were good days, glorious days. And now the time is finally here to begin the proper countdown to Grand Theft Auto VI. Here’s hoping we all live that long!
Welp, looks awesome. Looks exactly how one would expect it to look, and that’s a good thing. Obviously this trailer is all about flavor and style, with a brief look at our new protagonists. And that’s all fine by me.
So yeah, I’m excited. We’ve known we were returning to Vice City for a while now, courtesy of various leaks. And we knew a female protagonist was coming. I’m all for that. And it’s clear that the game is going to lean very heavily into the ‘Florida Man’ insanity that’s developed in Florida since the last Vice City game. Sounds good to me!
I might even try to stay involved in the online community, considering how huge it got for GTA V. I gave up on that early, and then stuck around in Red Dead Redemption 2 Online for a long time, even after it became clear that Rockstar wasn’t doing anything for it.
Grand Theft Auto VI is coming 2025, probably. Hold on to your butts.

Pink Godzilla is Coming
It’s a good time to be a Godzilla fan. I just saw Godzilla Minus One this weekend, and it was great! Awesome monster stuff, and a very touching human story. I teared up in the end! And then we’ve got Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, which is a really fun show about the Monsterverse. They managed to pull that off!
And now we’ve got the first trailer for Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire.
It looks pretty crazy. These new Godzilla and Kong films have really gone off the rails since the more grounded first film in 2014. And we used up the likes of Mothra, Rodan and Ghidorah ages ago (still waiting on my fave, Anguirus!). So I guess they’re going to team up and take on a balding orangutan villain in Middle Earth? I suppose we’ll see!
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire comes to theaters on April 12!
