Morbius Opening Scene

A little over two months after its cinema release, Sony have released the first nine minutes of the film on YouTube.

That's not standard practice. What might this be?

US FTC Investigate Sony

Sony's proposed $3.6 billion (US) acquisition of game developer Bungie will be the subject of a US Federal Trade Commission anti-trust investigation.

When the deal was announced Bungie released a statement to the effect that their games, present (eg. Destiny 2) and future, would not become Sony (i.e. Playstation) exclusives but the FTC has doubts.

Doctor Hugh?

UK's Daily Mirror have published an article claiming that Russell T Davies is keen to cast Hugh Grant as the next Doctor Who.

Such rumours fly thick and fast in the news stream and we generally regard them as appalling clickbait, but today we gave them a nibble.

The Boys Season 3 Teaser

We now have the first teaser trailer for season 3 of The Boys and it's a shocker.

On first view it's non-stop action set to a snappy tune and the standout is what appears to be supe-hating Billy (Karl Urban) now with laser beam eye superpowers, but upon closer examination - much pausing - there's a lot more to this.

Morbius Final Trailer

Sony have released the final trailer for soon to be in cinemas, Morbius.

While it doesn't contain any revelations or major surprises, it does give us our first glimpse of Matt Smith as the... let's call him badder-than-Morbius guy.

It is a fascinating development in gaming technology but during their various interviews they've also touched on other topics of interest.

Morbius Lore Vignette

Sony have released what we would describe as a poorly described "lore vignette" for upcoming anti-hero vampire film, Morbius.

You'd expect that to reveal some information about the character of Morbius, but instead it's a very short commentary on the character's debut in a Spider-Man comic following the lifting of a supernatural characters ban.

Sony's Shaktimaan

Sony have announced that they're developing a new superhero film based on popular 1990s and 2000s Indian superhero TV series, Shaktimaan.

This is noteworthy not just for being a new superhero film but also for tapping into Indian popular culture.
