First Brief Teaser for A24's 'Slice' Movie Starring Chance The Rapper
Pizza delivery for Chance The Rapper! A24 has announced that they’ll be releasing a movie in the second half of 2017 titled Slice, an indie comedy about a killer taking out pizza deliver guys. The film stars mixtape master Chance The Rapper (aka Chance Bennett) and was already filmed “quietly” in Chicago over the summer, though it won’t be out until next year. The IMDb listing doesn’t even mention Chance, even though he’s named on the stylish teaser poster seen below. According to IMDb, the rest of the cast includes Will Brill and Rae Gray. This sounds like it’s going to be very fun, a comedy about pizza delivery drivers trying to stay alive and figure out who wants to get rid of all of them. The teaser is short, but at least it’s something. ›››

Gothic Bedtime Story Short Film 'Dead Hearts' Starring Valin Shinyei
“Milton Mulberry Jr. was going to die. Now, you’re probably thinking: ‘what a morbid way to start a story…’” Looking for something fun to watch this Halloween? Check out this amusing new short film Dead Hearts, a “gothic bedtime story” about two young lovers that is filled with “taxidermy, Kung Fu, and biker werewolves”. Valin Shinyei stars as a young unfazed-by-death mortician along with Dalila Bela as the taxidermy-loving blind girl he falls for, and they make for an adorable couple. I shouldn’t make the obvious comparison but this definitely has the “if Wes Anderson made a horror movie” vibe, though it’s really quite charming and enjoyable. I appreciate the way the story shifts in the second half, bringing the film full-circle. ›››

Second Trailer for Terrifying B&W Indie Horror 'The Eyes of My Mother'
“You’ve done this before…? Why do you do it?” Magnolia Pictures has released a second trailer for the B&W indie horror drama The Eyes of My Mother, timed for release on Halloween because it’s a twisted little tease that will haunt you well into the night. Diana Agostini plays “Mother” in this nasty horror about a mother who teaches her daughter to be “unfazed by death”. The film has been described as a nightmare that is so unsettling and disturbing that many who’ve seen it want to forget it but can’t. The Eyes of My Mother stars Kika Magalhães, Will Brill, Flora Diaz, Paul Nazak, Clara Wong, and Olivia Bond. There’s only one scene in this new trailer but if you listen (and look) carefully, you will figure out what’s happening. ›››

Review: 'Doctor Strange' is a Distinctive, Spectacular Marvel Origin Film
Can Marvel still make an origin story exciting? Yes. As formulaic as Marvel Studios movies have become, they can still deliver thoroughly exciting big screen entertainment. Doctor Strange is the latest in their line-up that proves with the right formula (in this case, a good thing) of talent behind and on the screen, they can pull off another vibrant introduction. I’m admittedly not that familiar with Doctor Strange – I never read any of his comics and only know what I’ve learned writing about the movie leading up to the release. After seeing the movie, I’m now a big fan. It’s the story of an arrogant, egotistical doctor who has to see the world differently, figuring out how he can still contribute to the greater good even though he can no longer heal people with his hands. Beyond that, the visuals are spectacular and it’s worth seeing for them alone. ›››

Xbox Exec on State of VR — Feels Like "Demos and Experiments"
Virtual reality will find its place in the gaming landscape, but it might not be for a few years, according to Xbox executive Phil Spencer. He said in a new interview with Stevivor that he has all the major VR headsets and has found that most of the games he’s playing now “feel like demos and experiments.”
This is not a knock on VR, he said. “I actually think it’s absolutely the right thing to have happened. That’s not a criticism at all, but should be happening. But I think it will take time.”
“I think VR will find its spot in gaming; I would make that bet,” Spencer went on to say. “We designed Scorpio as a VR-capable console. Whether that happens this year, next year, or the year after…”
Spencer added that he hasn’t found a VR game that people spend a lot of time in, for what he called “long-term engagement.” As he alluded to, most of what he’s played have been shorter experiences in nature that “feel like demos and experiments.”
“I don’t think the creators in the game space have yet found–well, they haven’t obviously perfected the craft of building VR games,” Spencer added. “It’s so early; I think we’re a couple of years before we’ll really see that hit mainstream.”
The executive went on to question the broad appeal of existing VR headsets, saying they can be cumbersome with their wires, in particular. Naturally, he mentioned Microsoft’s HoloLens as being a potential solution.
“In the long run, we need untethered solutions,” he said. “You need to have the compute capability not be wired to my display that’s on my head. That means I either have some kind of high-bandwidth wireless HDMI or I have compute here. With the HoloLens we’ve chosen to put compute in the HMD itself, so it’s right there. With HoloLens we picked where we think the tech’s going to be in ten years, because we see a lot of people doing great work in the VR space today.”

Project Scorpio comes out in fall 2017. Though it will be VR-ready, Microsoft has not yet announced any specific plans for the headset in the area of VR or AR.
Sony’s PlayStation 4 VR headset, PlayStation VR, launched in the middle of October. Sony announced just today that sales of the device are “on track,” though a specific unit sales figure was not disclosed.

PlayStation VR Sales "On Track," Sony Says
Sales of Sony’s newly launched PlayStation VR headset are “on track,” chief financial offer Kenichiro Yoshida said today during the company’s earnings briefing.
The reporting period for this latest quarter ended on September 30, which might explain why the company only offered that high level description instead of a firm figure. It doesn’t appear that Sony has modeled a sales forecast for PlayStation VR. In fact, PlayStation boss Shuhei Yoshida said in September, “To be honest, we don’t know what demand will be.”
PlayStation executive Jim Ryan said in October that PlayStation VR is expected to sell “hundreds of thousands” of units at launch. According to research group Superdata, PlayStation VR sales could reach 2.6 million units by the end of the year.
The headset costs $400 on its own and also requires a PlayStation 4 and a PlayStation camera. A $500 PlayStation VR Launch Bundle comes with the headset, a camera, and two Move controllers, as well as the five-game PlayStation VR Worlds collection. All versions of PlayStation VR include a demo disc containing trials for 18 games, including Resident Evil 7.
GameSpot’s Jimmy Thang reviewed PlayStation VR, saying it’s not a must-buy at the moment.
“As a VR fan, I want PSVR to succeed, but it trips up too many times to wholeheartedly recommend at this point,” he wrote. “Many of the launch titles will make a large percentage of people sick, and it may lead to the false impression that VR has to make you nauseated. If you have a PS4 and are dying to get PSVR, then I’d recommend the $499.99 bundle which includes the PlayStation Camera, two Move controllers, and PlayStation VR Worlds.
“If you have a PS4 and are simply curious about VR, I’d hold out until more titles are released. While there are a handful of fun titles, there’s nothing that I’ve played at launch so far to indicate to me that the PSVR is a must-buy right now. For everyone else, I’d recommend saving up for a better reality.”
