The Swedish superstars object after hits like The Winner Takes it All were played at a campaign rally.

Deadpool & Wolverine has been the box office hit that Disney and Marvel Studios were looking for, but most fans still aren’t convinced we’re back. Sure, other recent movies and shows were pretty good, but since around 2022, we’ve been stuck in a mostly mid-to-bad zone that lacks the spark of the Infinity Saga days. Well, this 85th anniversary video really tries to sell the idea things will get better soon.Released alongside a meaty Entertainment Weekly article, the 2:40 video celebrates Marvel as a whole and its history, yet it clearly focuses on the company’s movie and TV side, which is rather wild when you think about it. People just don’t read as many comic books anymore, I guess.The whole thing is admittedly emotional, as it doesn’t forget about the founding fathers of Marvel and i...

As of wrioting, it's still going, and it's pretty cool.If you're out of the loop, Squirrel With A Gun has gone from ">a thing that just made for fun Twitter videos a few years ago to a thing that's now actually coming out on PC and console, and it's about exactly what you'd have expected, as well as some platforming you might not have.To celebrate this being the day the game unlocks on Steam and the Epic Store, its developers have elected to throw a livestreamed party for some actual squirrels, with help from a Youtube channel called, Backyard Buddie...

At launch, Game Science said it was aware of "occasional serious issues" for Black Myth: Wukong. Other areas ...

Earlier this month, reports emerged that The Acolyte had been canceled after only a single season on Disney+. Lee Jung-jae, who played Jedi Master Sol on the series, expressed his surprise about The Acolyte's fate. However, Amandla Stenberg--who headlined the show as twin sisters Osha and Mae--says that "it was not a huge shock" after the backlash that the series received from the time it was announced.Via Deadline, Stenberg posted a lengthy statement on her Instagram Stories. "For those who aren’t aware, there has been a rampage of vitriol that we have faced since the show was even announced, when it was still just a concept and no one had even seen it," wrote Stenberg. She also related that "hyper-conservative bigotry and vitriol, prejudiced hatred and hateful language" were directed tow...

El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele revealed that the country has gained about $265 million after adopting Bitcoin as a reserve asset and legal tender. Bukele shared that El Salvador has invested $135 million in Bitcoin, which has since grown to $400 million in the public wallet alone. According to him, Salvadorans who embraced Bitcoin have also seen substantial gains due to the asset’s appreciation this year. He stated: “El Salvador invested $135 million. Now, we have $400 million in Bitcoin in the public wallet alone. We have done well as a government. Salvadorans who used and saved it have done very well for obvious reasons, such as the price increase.” Indeed, the country’s Bitcoin holdings have yielded over a 38% profit, driven by strategic purchases during market downturns. Accordin...

As the crypto market approaches a pivotal moment with the upcoming US election in November, former President Donald Trump continues to voice his support with a recent post and the details of his new crypto venture, “World Liberty Financial.” Trump Vows To Make The US A Crypto Capital In a recent video release, Trump articulated his vision to elevate the United States to the pinnacle of the global crypto landscape, dubbing it the “crypto capital of the planet.” He emphasized a stance against perceived efforts to stifle the industry, stating, “they want to choke you, and we are not going to let that happen.” At the same time, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has increased its regulatory oversight, as evidenced by the issuance of a Wells Notice to OpenSea, one of the industry’...

The first time I encountered Jack King-Spooner's work, it was when he sent me a copy of Sluggish Morss: Pattern Circus over hospital wifi late at night. The game was a bright spot in a bad time, which might seem peculiar given that Sluggish Morss often looks like a whale's upset stomach, but it's such a feverishly inventive creation. It blew the dust from my synapses. The same appears true of King-Spooner's upcoming Judero, on which he is collaborating with Soul Searching developer Talha Kaya. It casts you as a "pagan seer" armed with a big stick, who is searching the mythical Scottish borderlands for evil creatures to clobber. It looks cheerier and airier than Sluggish Morss, with a more overt emphasis on mechanics such as combat, but it has the same pickled 3am energy to it. It's also no...

A sudden update to World of Warcraft: The War Within's leveling experience has left the community torn, as it drastically impacts the amount of power characters decked out with gear from previous expansions have while making the journey from level 70-80. The reason for this change is clear. Characters coming in with full sets of high-level gear from old content were absolutely flying through leveling mobs without in a matter of seconds, totally stripping the leveling process of any challenge. This impacted group content too, as higher level characters in a party with lower level characters decked out in old-content gear would find themselves out DPS'd courtesy of power balancing. Okay so what are the two sides of the arguement here? Why are people not super happy? On the side of the hot...
