Disney has revealed a new more kid-friendly Star Wars show titled Lego Star Wars: All-Stars, bearing no small similarity to the video game series of the same theme.
The series will be produced for Disney’s online streaming service, DisneyNOW, as well on the DisneyXD. A number of shorts will premiere October 28, leading to full episodes later in November. While this normally wouldn’t be huge news, the name has been floating around the rumor mill for quite as a possible escalation for the Lego Star Wars game series. All-Stars brings together every Star Wars characters irrespective of timeline or canon or who’s alive and who’s not.
Check out the trailer below.
Even though the speculation that All-Stars is actually a game didn’t prove to be correct yet, it’s definitely possible that the shorts are a prelude to doing the same concept with a game. The series has been oddly quiet since the release of The Force Awakens, with Traveler’s Tales not announcing games for either Rogue One or The Last Jedi. Presumably they must have something big up their sleeves.

It is apparently no small point of pride for the people working on the upcoming Monster Hunter movie that the weapons in the film are accurate to the weapons in the game. The other day, a screen from the film showed a character carrying a rifle, causing fans to raise eyebrows at what exactly this movie was going for. Well, Milla Jovovich is happy to put doubts to rest.
Jovovich, who starred in every Resident Evil movie, often several times in the same movie, is also headlining Monster Hunter. As Natalie Artemis, Jovovich is on the team that first discovers that monsters are coming into our world. In the photo, as a response to the shot of the rifle, she shows off the stinger as an accurate Monster Hunter weapon that will be used.
In Monster Hunter World, the slinger is an item always on your hunter and can be loaded with different ammo and used to grapple hook around places.
Monster Hunter the movie does not yet have a release date, but principal photography began earlier this month. Earlier cast confirmations showed Ron Perlman and T.I. Harris also on Jovovich’s anti-monster fighting team.

Yooka-Laylee has never made any bones about how close to the traditional N64 platformers of yore it hews to, to the point where people have mistaken it as a sequel to Banjo-Kazooie at a glance. One of the game’s promises from near launch dives deeper into that idea by introducing a 64-Bit Tonic, which Team 17 says makes the game look like a N64 title while avoiding all the copyrights of using those words.
Some fans are a little annoyed, considering the length of time between the announcements and updates. Comments on the post complain that they thought it would actually be a real low-poly mode that looks like N64 games, when the 64-bit tonic in Yooka-Laylee appears to be lower settings, a lower capped framerate, and some filters instead – which, to be clear, is not less than what Team 17 promised.
There’s still no date for the release of the tonic, however, so there could still be some time to go before it makes it out to consumer hands. At the moment, though, this doesn’t seem to be plucking at the nostalgia strings fans hoped it would be. When it does release, the Tonic update will be on all supported platforms.
