Black to Grey

A new trailer has been released for Deus which stars Australia's Claudia Black (a.k.a Vala in Stargate SG-1) as astrophysicist Karla Grey. Does that name sound made for her?

For the sake of managing expectations this isn't a huge budget cinema release. It's straight to DVD and digital.

Love and Thunder

Pretty much as expected because accelerated transition to streaming is in vogue, Thor: Love and Thunder will arrive on Disney+ on September 8.

Though widely regarded as inferior to Ragnarok, reputable reviewers describe it as at least above average so it could be worth a few hours of your time.

Disney Dick Move

We hope you'll pardon our vulgar language but as they say in the classic Disney Cinderella tale, the shoe fits.

With the original Avatar film returning to cinemas ahead of the sequel's premiere in December, Disney have sneakily pulled Avatar from Disney+.

Wandering Earth 2

A teaser has been released for the prequel to The Wandering Earth which is China's highest grossing sci-fi film.

Interestingly the trailer includes embedded English subtitles so they're pitching this at a global audience.

Day Shift Delight?

Based on their inside look and trailer we had pegged Netflix's recently released vampire film Day Shift as possibly enjoyable but in no danger of being excellent.

This is one of those rare and pleasant instances of a film exceeding its promos. However there is a catch.

Ezra Apologises

Sort of. While we never jumped on the bandwagon to summarily execute beleaguered by controversy star Ezra Miller, we are slightly skeptical of the official apology they recently issued.

It's both light on details and aim.

Vaginal Bugs

Trying to identify the source of the Doctor Who David Tennant regenerating into Ncuti Gatwa speculation, we made our way to a recent Wired interview with Neil Patrick Harris.

Nothing he said substantiated that theory but his response to a question about Starship Troopers caught our attention.

Saturn Comedy

Nominations for this year's Saturn Awards have been announced and they're a bit odd.

For example, Doctor Who has been nominated for Best Fantasy Television Series.

Disney Tops Netflix

Across all three of the streaming services it now owns, Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+, Disney has become the first streaming provider to ever overtake Netflix in total subscribers.

And they'd like more money please. In the US subscriptions will rise on December 8.

Exclusive Piracy

Netflix this year experienced its first quarterly drop in subscriber numbers and multiple media giants are engaged in massive cost cutting exercises.

Seemingly diminished by Netflix's introduction of affordable, convenient media streaming, piracy diminished but its shadow now looms again. Locally and abroad.
