Picard Season 2 Trailer
Posted By:

Paramount have released the official trailer for season 2 of Picard, just a few days after announcing its premiere date (March 3).

We would say that it looks like they're trying to revisit one of The Next Generation's high points - its eloquent and poignant time jumping finale - except for the presence of Guinan.

The Car is Over
Posted By:

"The car is over" is a bold claim recently made at the opening of what their owners describe as the first ever flying car store.

We would still caution you to look out for cars when crossing the road and must point out that this store doesn't actually have any flying cars to sell.

Mortal Kombat on Netflix
Posted By:

This week in Australia, Mortal Kombat, which released in cinemas last year, joined Netflix.

It's fantasy / sci-fi - there's a fellow with cybernetic arms in the trailer - and regarded as a bit of a bomb with critics but interestingly even in the midst of the COVID pandemic managed to be HBO's most successful film launch up to that point.
