All of The Games That I Played In 2023 and What My Game of The Year Is

I have played a lot of video games this year, most of them didn't come out this year and are old games, but I still want to mention them!

Destiny 2

God of War Ragnarök (2022)

God of War (2018)

Spider-Man (2018)

Spider-Man Miles Morales (2020)

Final Fantasy 7 Remake (2020)

Final Fantasy 16 (2023)

Cyberpunk 2077 (2020)

Spider-Man 2 (2023)

Mortal Kombat 1 (2023)

Alan Wake 2 (2023)

I didn't play a lot of video games, mainly due to because I am still in school, so I don't have a lot of time to do that, but I still played some and I all enjoyed and enjoy them! I have played God of War Ragnarök about thirty times this year at least.

So the Game of The Year went to Baldurs Gate Three, which I didn't even know existed but I saw gameplay and some stuff and I will say that it did deserve that award, most of the award winners did. In my opinion, Yuri Lowenthal should have won the Best Game Performance Award because while yes Neil Newborn is a fantastic voice actor I just felt like Yuri did a better job with Peter Parker in Spider-Man 2. But, congratulations to Neil I fucking loved him as Karl Heisenberg in Resident Evil Village and I am happy that he won that award.

So my game of the year in my opinion is Spider-Man 2. I just loved the story and the voice acting was just beautiful. Yes, it was a safe game didn't really go super far with the potential it had and Insomniac had, it was just the most fun I have ever had playing a game since God of War Ragnarök. Also, Venom was dope as fuck!

Ramble of the month November 2024: 90’s MCU phase 8 – Secret Invasion, Fatal Attractions and the penultimate phase of the 90’s MCU

Once again, we’re going into my alternate MCU that begins in the 1990’s but is rapidly catching up to our present day.  In fact, the latest phase will cover from 2020 through to 2023.  For those new to my Tumblr page who perhaps haven’t read any of my rambles on this subject, and for those who may just need a refresher, here’s a quick over-view of the underlying premise.  This is a hypothetical MCU slate, complete with fan-casting, which I’ve done both for fun and to show up the flaws in 90’s MCU memes.  What are those flaws?  Very simply, if the MCU had begun in the 1990’s, Marvel would have had all their film rights instead of just some, certain source material used by the real MCU would not exist and a number of characters/teams would be quite different.

With that quick summation out of the way, let’s quickly re-cap the film run for phases 1 through 6 of this hypothetical MCU.

Phase 1:

1992: Fantastic Four, Hulk, Iron Man

1993: Thor, Spider-Man, Ant-Man & The Wasp

1994: Captain America, Fantastic Four 2, Iron Man 2

1995: X-Men, Avengers, Daredevil

Phase 1 established the initial characters of our MCU, putting the Fantastic Four first and foremost to bring them in line with their comic-book counterparts before beginning to develop the Avengers, the X-Men, Spider-Man and Daredevil.

Phase 2:

1996: Spider-Man 2, Thor: Land of Enchantment, Silver Surfer

1997: Hulk vs Wolverine, Fantastic Four: Doomsday, Iron Man 3

1998: Captain America: Society of Serpents, Daredevil 2, X-Men 2

1999: Avengers 2, Spider-Man 3, Doctor Strange

Phase 2 provides expansion as not only do most heroes get solo and ensemble sequels, but other characters start to take on films of their own.  The Silver Surfer is spun off from his appearance in Fantastic Four 2 into a solo film while Doctor Strange is introduced, and we also see the first examples of the “third film loss” trope, including Stark’s loss of his business and Iron Man persona through alcoholism, Doctor Doom destroying the Baxter Building while Ben Grimm loses a chance to be human, and Peter Parker loses Gwen Stacy.

Phase 3:

2000: Fantastic Four: World War III, Thor: Ragnarök, Daredevil 3

2001: Hulk: Rise of the Leader, X-Men: Fall of the Mutants, Avengers: Under Siege

2002: Doctor Strange 2, The Captain, Spider-Man 4

2003: Captain Britain, Fantastic Four: Enter the Negative Zone, Ghost Rider

Phase 3 further put our heroes on the back foot with yet more loss, most notably assaults on the X-Mansion and Avengers Mansion, but we also see more expansion; Namor, the Black Panther and the Inhumans all get introduced via the Fantastic Four, who then go on to become a family via the birth of Franklin Richards, and both Captain Britain and Ghost Rider get added to the mix.

Phase 4:

2004: Black Panther, Captain Marvel, Secret Wars: Part I

2005: Excalibur, Defenders, Ghost Rider 2

2006: X-Factor, Secret Wars: Part II, Heroes For Hire

2007: Namor the Submariner, Doctor Strange 3, Iron Man: Enter The Mandarin

Phase 4 took us through Secret Wars, and along the way gave us a lot more characters.  Black Panther and the original, pre-Carol Danvers iteration of Captain Marvel get solo films, former X-Men become parts of spin-off teams, and we see the formation of the Defenders and a one-shot of the Heroes For Hire, not to mention a Namor solo film and the return of Tony Stark.

Phase 5:

2008: Spider-Man 5, Fantastic Four: Unthinkable, Ms Marvel

2009: Elektra, Black Panther 2, Defenders 2

2010: X-Men: Proteus, Spider-Man 6, Ant-Man 2

2011: Silver Surfer 2, Avengers vs X-Men, Ghost Rider 3

Phase 5 gave us the Black Suit saga for Spider-Man as an aftermath of Secret Wars over the web-slinger’s fifth and sixth solo films, while the Fantastic Four’s sixth film would also be their last as we began the Infinity Saga.  In turn, Carol Danvers and a resurrected Elektra gained solo films, with the former precipitating an Avengers vs X-Men clash.

Phase 6:

2012: Guardians of the Galaxy, Black Panther 3, Iron Man: The Dragon Seed Saga

2013: X-Men: Phoenix Rising, Defenders 3, Ant-Man 3

2014: X-Men: Dark Phoenix Saga, Infinity War, Blade

2015: Inhumans, Infinity War II, Deadpool

Phase 6 concluded the Infinity Saga while also removing Jean Grey and Cyclops from being active in the MCU via the Phoenix and Dark Phoenix sagas being adapted into a film duology.  We also add Blade to the MCU, and the Inhumans finally gained their own film, while several solo and group film franchises reached their third and final instalments.

Phase 7:

2016: Union Jack, Silver Surfer 3, Iron-Man/Spider-Man: Legacy

2017: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Blade 2, Ghost Rider Returns

2018: Eternals, Deadpool 2, New Avengers

2019: X-Men: Days of Future Past, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, Blade 3

Phase 7 was all about dealing with the aftermath of the Infinity Saga and beginning a set-up of Secret Wars.  At the same time, we also added some new heroes, passed on a few mantles and otherwise paved the way for phase 8, which works out as follows;

Phase 8:

2020: Wolverine: Enemy of the State, MI13, Ultimate Spider-Man

2021: Deadpool 3, Spider-Woman, Ms Marvel 2

2022: X-Men: Fatal Attractions, Venom, Great Lakes Avengers

2023: Secret Invasion, Howling Commandoes, Wolverine: Sins of the Father

As you can see, Wolverine solo films come up for the first time since Hulk vs Wolverine was done back in phase 2, and we have a mix of first films and sequels.  So, without further ado, let’s look at these films in more detail…

Wolverine: Enemy of the State (2020) Directed by Paul Greengrass

Wolverine/Logan = Tom Cruise

Elektra Natchios = Leonor Varela

Nick Fury = Tommy Lee Jones

Tomi Shishido/The Gorgon = Tadanobu Asano

Elsbeth Von Strucker = Lynda Carter

Baron Von Strucker = Udo Kier

Storm/Ororo Monroe = Halle Berry

Peter Rasputin/Colossus = Henry Cavill

Rogue = Anna Paquin

Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler = Daniel Brühl

Jubilee = Chloe Bennett

Emma Frost = Elizabeth Banks

Danielle Moonstar = Selena Gomez

Bishop = Winston Duke

Rachel Summers = Danielle Panabaker

Beast/Hank McCoy = Alec Baldwin

Dr Valerie Cooper = Malin Åkerman

Forge = Jimmy Smits

Steve Rogers/Captain America = Brad Pitt

Amadeus Cho/Iron Man III = Charles Melton

Kamala Khan/Ms Marvel = Odeya Rush

Hawkeye II/Kate Bishop = Hailee Steinfeld

Luke Cage = Tyrese Gibson

Matt Murdock/Daredevil = Christian Slater

Paul Greengrass, director of the second, third and fifth Bourne films, is my pick to helm this film adaptation of a great solo Wolverine arc that has yet to be animated to animated series or film.  In this arc in the comics, Wolverine is killed and resurrected by the villainous ninja group known as the Hand in order to brainwash Wolverine into being a weapon for them and Hydra.  This puts Wolverine in the position of attacking a lot of his friends, and results in clashes with Elektra, owing to her history with the Hand.  It’s brilliantly done, and as such I felt it should be included in my hypothetical MCU.

At this stage, a lot of the cast has long since been around and is reprised from past films.  Honestly, only Japanese mutant and central villain The Gorgon and Baron Von Strucker’s wife are new roles.  However, that doesn’t make the cast any less packed for heavyweights in the world of acting.  Bottom line, this would be a great film to see in this MCU, and if Deadpool & Wolverine hadn’t already played some of the themes of this story out in their Wolverine, I’d enjoy seeing it used for the MCU.  As it is, I hope that X-Men ’97 can maybe build up to something like this in another season or two.

MI13 (2020) Directed by Sam Mendes

Joseph Chapman/Union Jack III = Rob Mallard

Dane Whitman/Black Knight = Ioan Gruffudd

Dr Faiza Hussain/Excalibur = Nikkita Chadha

Scott Wright/Micromax = Jack O'Connell

Harley Davis/Motormouth = Louisa Lytton

Sabra/Ruth Bat-Seraph = Gal Gadot

Navid Hashim/Arabian Knight = Marwan Kenzari

Pete Wisdom = Tom Bateman

Alistaire Stuart = David Tennant

Brian Braddock Jr./Captain Britain = Jamie Bamber

Meggan = Sienna Miller

Philip Gavin = Daniel Day-Lewis

Farouk Al-Fasaud = Navid Negahban

Batroc = Georges St-Pierre

Steven Levens/Jack O'Lantern = Duane Henry

Douglas Scott/Razorfist = Joe Manganiello

Herman Schultz/Shocker = Patrick Muldoon

Lady Deathstrike = Tao Okamoto

Joanna Cargill/Frenzy = Amanda Nunes

Titania/Mary MacPherson = Amy Christine Dumas

As a Brit, I like to work in Marvel’s UK heroes now and then for films of their own, and of those heroes, among the few I’ve not yet touched on is the concept of MI13, a team that combines British superheroes together without depending on the mutant underpinnings inherent to Marvel’s other UK-based super-term Excalibur.  However, I’ve not read anything of their lore, so our MCU gets a slightly different origin arc based on a Union Jack solo/interim team arc I read a while back.  The whole thing revolves around UJ and a team of unlikely allies saving London from a terrorist plot, so this film takes that basic plot and adds to it to make it into an MI13 origin arc.

Now we have a few reprised roles in Union Jack, Black Knight, Alistaire Stuart, Captain Britain, Meggan and all the costumes villains (Batroc on down).  The rest of the cast is new, and I know some people will question my use of two characters in particular, especially since one is already causing controversy by being used in the upcoming Captain America: Brave New World in the real MCU.  In other words, we’re on about Israeli super-agent Sabra, and her Saudi counterpart known as the Arabian Knight, largely out of Marvel’s desire to word-play on the idea of the “Arabian Nights”.

Now I’m sure anyone with any awareness of these cultures already what makes the characters so controversial, and one could argue against including them, or at least changing them like the real MCU has done.  However, being committed to showing cultures as they are where I can, I’d be taking more of an attitude of having these two characters roped in to aid British intelligence, having to co-operate when they can’t stand each other, and developing an understanding of each other as a people by the film’s end.  Their part in this film would be show that Jews and Muslims can get along if they want to and choose to.  As for the Arabian Knight’s codename, that would just be shown as a western press name for the character, who would have a more appropriate Saudi-based codename, and a modernised appearance to match the story arc being adapted.  Direction-wise, I’ve picked Sam Mendes of 1917 and Skyfall fame.

Ultimate Spider-Man (2020) Directed by Denzel Washington

Miles Morales/Spider-Man II = Noah Gray-Cabey

Cassandra Webb/Madame Webb = Nana Visitor

Silvija Sablinova/Silver Sable = Ivanna Sakhno

Thomas Fireheart/Puma = Martin Sensmeier

Rio Morales = Penélope Cruz

Jefferson Davis = Eriq La Salle

Ganke Lee = Jacob Batalon

Kamala Khan/Ms Marvel = Odeya Rush

Ava Ayala = Cierra Ramirez

Anya Corazon = Alejandra Reynoso

Yuri Watanabe = Ally Maki

Dr Miles Warren/Jackal = Kyle MacLachlan

Kaine/Scarlet Spider = Wil Weaton

Gwen Stacy II/Ghost Spider = Reese Witherspoon

Norton G. Fester/Looter = Michael Peña

Harry Osborn = Ryan Phillipe

Liz Allen-Osborn = Alicia Silverstone

Having seen Wil Wheaton as Spider-Man over six solo films before handing over the webs to Miles Morales, this alternate MCU has then taken Miles through appearances in a Blade film and New Avengers before giving him his first true solo film.  For direction, I’ve picked Denzel Washington in part because this MCU has already used him to play Joe Robertson of Spider-Man fame, and since Denzel is both director and actor, I’d be curious to see what he could do with the Miles Morales version of Spider-Man.  Plot-wise, stopping a minor criminal threat in the form of the Looter begins to unveil the trail of villainous geneticist Miles Warren, also known as the Jackal, who is under investigation by Silver Sable on behalf of Thomas Fireheart, a CEO and super-being also known as the Puma.  Meanwhile, Madame Web has made herself known to Miles to help guide the young hero, and there are cameo appearances by Kamala Khan, as well as the Osborns.

A fair chunk of this film is about mixing some classic Spider-Man lore with the more modern takes we now get involving Miles, hence the mix of characters and elements involved.  Unlike Sony, I don’t believe in doing certain characters from Spider-Man’s universe without him, so Madame Webb is included here as a key supporting character instead of being off in her own film.  As for the inclusion of a spider-powered Gwen-clone, this is an attempt to combine her Spider-Woman persona with the cloning plots around Spider-Man and setting up some different motivations for the infamous Kaine.  Other characters are also included that will play hero roles later, but aren’t there just yet to give more time to focus on Miles developing into the Spider-Man role, including how he reacts to the more mercenary-like Silver Sable.

Deadpool 3 (2021) Directed by James Gunn

Wade Wilson/Deadpool = Ryan Reynolds

Theresa Rourke-Cassidy/Siryn = Sarah Bolger

Jamie Maddrox/Multiple Man = Zac Efron

Roberto Da Costa = Mario Lopez

Tabita Smith = Anna Faris

Arkady Rossovich/Omega Red = David Harbour

"Black Tom" Cassidy = Ciarán Hinds

Weasel = TJ Miller

Blind Al = Stockard Channing

Mister Sinister = Michael Sheen

Scalphunter = Chaske Spencer

Arclight = Lana Condor

Blockbuster = Triple H

Harpoon = Jay Tavare

Vertigo = Brie Larson

Dr Valerie Cooper = Malin Åkerman

Nathan Christopher Summers/Cable = Dennis Quaid

Domino = Morena Baccarin

James Proudstar/Warpath = Booboo Stewart

Paige Guthrie/Husk = Kelly Stables

Rahne Sinclair/Wolfsbane = Bonnie Wright

Banshee/Sean Cassidy = Liam Neeson

Dr Moira Mactaggert = Olivia Williams

For the third Deadpool film in our alternate MCU, I’m putting James Gunn at the helm and picking up on a plot thread that drops in the second film and that must come up for Fatal Attractions to really work well; the Legacy Virus.  Stryfe has unleashed the same illness that was unleashed in the comics, and just like in the comics, it’s a pox on the mutant population.  When some key mutants begin falling to the illness, Deadpool forms an ad-hoc team in a desperate search for a possible cure.  However, the cure requires confronting Mr Sinister and his Marauders, and for some reason, Cable and X-Force are approached to try and prevent this.  The overall idea would be a mutant-based comedy mash-up of the viral outbreak, quest adventure and political thriller genres, while at the same time helping to set up events for the Secret Invasion film.

Now for anyone disappointed in my choosing Michael Sheen over, say, Keanu Reeves to play Sinister, please bear in mind that a) Keanu already has a role in this 90’s-based MCU of mine as Mastermind, and b) Keanu is Canadian, Sheen is English, and Sinister is also a character originally from England, so safe to say that even Sheen wasn’t the fantastic actor that he is, he would still be more suited to the part than Reeves just by being the right nationality.  A pity DC couldn’t figure that out and get an English actor to play their film version of Constantine, but at least the Arrowverse and DCAMU got it right.  Anyway, back to this hypothetical MCU…

Spider-Woman (2021) Directed by Patty Jenkins

Spider-Woman/Jessica Drew = Anne Hathaway

Abigail Brand = Kristen Wiig

Dakota North = Serinda Swan

David Ishima = Yuki Matsuzaki

Lt. Sabrina Morrell = Marisa Tomei

Dr Ashley Kafka = Keri Russell

Nick Fury = Tommy Lee Jones

Viper/Ophelia Sarkissian = Rose McGowan

Dr Karl Malus = Jared Leto

Black Widow II/Yelena Belova = Florence Pugh

Andrea von Strucker = Nina Hoss

Andreas von Strucker = August Diehl

Otto Vermis = Ulrich Tukur

Jared Kurtz = Matthias Schweighöfer

High Evolutionary = Hugh Grant

Bova = Tamzin Outhwaite

Jonathan Drew (flashback) = Aaron Taylor-Johnson

Miriam Drew (flashback) = Cara Delevingne

Spider-Woman is a character that hasn’t been adapted much as yet in films or animation, or at least not the Jessica Drew original (the Julia Carpenter model was a key part of the 90’s animated series of Iron Man and was played by Sydney Sweeney at a younger age in the Madame Web film).  Looking at her origins, this isn’t surprising as they’ve been some of the most inconsistent possible, but given her importance in Secret Invasion, I felt a solo film was needed to explore her origins.  In this film, we see kid Jessica get powers as a child courtesy of the High Evolutionary, only to be orphaned by him and his parents blowing up HE’s base to prevent Hydra getting the scientist’s technology.  Later, we see Jessica almost falling in with Hydra, only to defect to SHIELD and develop a more heroic persona, followed by a present-day story against Hydra that works in characters old and new.

For direction, I went with Patty Jenkins of Wonder Woman fame because we’ve already seen in superhero films that women characters often come across better under female directors.  Spider-Woman, Fury and Viper all return from past films, but everyone else is a new addition to the casting of this MCU, and as you may notice, I’ve kept at least one real MCU casting choice, but the rest are all new for this film.

Ms Marvel 2 (2021) Directed by Chloé Zhao

Kamala Khan/Ms Marvel = Odeya Rush

Nakia Bahadir = Anya Chalotra

Bruno Carrelli = Jake Cannavale

Miles Morales/Spider-Man II = Noah Gray-Cabey

Jusuf Khan = Sayed Badreya

Disha Khan = Nina Wadia

Jamir Khan = Tony Revolori

Michaela Miller = Sierra McCormick

Zoe Zimmer = Dove Cameron

Sheik Abdullah = Nasser Farris

Ronan The Accuser = Ray Stevenson

Lash = Benedict Cumberbatch

Hollow = David Ramsey

Sheath = Kristen Stewart

Tomoe = Naoko Mori

Kaboom = Nicola Peltz

Kamran = Timothée Chalamet

While most films with a numerical suffix will be sequels, this one isn’t, or at least not in the strictest sense.  In this film-verse, we’ve gone from a Captain Marvel solo film dedicated to the male Kree original, then gave Carol Danvers a Ms Marvel film that show-cases Rogue stealing her powers.  Having establish Kamala Khan first in an Inhumans film, then having her return for New Avengers and cameo in Ultimate Spider-Man, this film is her dedicated solo film.  In this case, she’s going up against villainous Inhumans both old (Lash, Hollow and Sheath) and new, not to mention Kree villain Ronan, all with some third-act assistance from Miles Morales (albeit not much so as to avoid stealing too much thunder from the title character).  For directors, I had a feeling this project might have been a better option for Chloé Zhao than Eternals was in the real MCU.  Sometimes a film not being as good as it could be is less about those involved being bad and more about mismatching the material with the creatives involved.

X-Men: Fatal Attractions (2022) Directed by Antoine Fuqua

Professor Charles Xavier = Patrick Stewart

Wolverine/Logan = Tom Cruise

Magneto (old version) = Ian McKellan

Magneto (revitalised version) = Matthew Macfadyen

Beast/Hank McCoy = Alec Baldwin

Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler = Daniel Brühl

Rogue = Anna Paquin

Remi LeBeau/Gambit = Zachary Levi

Scarlet Witch/Wanda Maximoff = Kate Beckinsale

Jubilee = Chloe Bennett

Emma Frost = Elizabeth Banks

Danielle Moonstar = Selena Gomez

Bishop = Winston Duke

Rachel Summers = Danielle Panabaker

Peter Rasputin/Colossus = Henry Cavill

Illyana Rasputin = Izabela Vidovic

Jonothan Starsmore/Chamber = Tom Holland

Hisako Ichiki/Armor = Inori Minase

Monet St Croix/M = Maitreyi Ramakrishnan

Megan Gwynn/Pixie = Alexa Davies

Neal Shaara/Thunderbird = Karan Brar

Exodus = Jean Dujardin

Spoor = Kevin McKidd

Scanner = Caity Lotz

Katu = Gil Birmingham

Joanna Cargill/Frenzy = Amanda Nunes

Fabian Cortez = Jason Flemyng

Storm/Ororo Monroe = Halle Berry

Forge = Jimmy Smits

Banshee/Sean Cassidy = Liam Neeson

Dr Moira Mactaggert = Olivia Williams

Warren Worthington III/Archangel = Neil Patrick Harris

Brian Braddock Jr./Captain Britain = Jamie Bamber

Betsy Braddock/Psylocke = Lena Headey

Meggan = Sienna Miller

Jamie Maddrox/Multiple Man = Zac Efron

Abigail Brand = Kristen Wiig

Nathan Christopher Summers/Cable = Dennis Quaid

Domino = Morena Baccarin

James Proudstar/Warpath = Booboo Stewart

Theresa Rourke-Cassidy/Siryn = Sarah Bolger

Paige Guthrie = Kelly Stables

Roberto Da Costa = Mario Lopez

Tabita Smith = Anna Faris

Rahne Sinclair/Wolfsbane = Bonnie Wright

At this stage of the MCU, keeping the X-Men going is tricky.  Actors I picked previously for certain roles would have died at this point (Patrick Swayze as Cyclops and Paul Walker as Cannonball), and the original Xavier and Magneto are both getting up in years.  As a result, changing some of the older actors with in-story explanations becomes part of the process.  However, when you’re dealing with a story like Fatal Attractions, having Magneto de-age himself is a minor plot thread when measured against the Legacy Virus killing Illyana, her brother’s subsequent defection to Magneto’s side, and let’s not forget the storming of Magneto’s orbital base that ends in the ripping out of Wolverine’s adamantium.

Aside from some new X-Students, the Acolytes and a younger Magneto, this film is full to the brim with returning actors for what would probably be one of the longest MCU films in this hypothetical film run, though many would largely be cameos for the funeral scene.  Directing all this would be Antoine Fuqua, who has directed the Equalizer trilogy and Olympus Has Fallen, among other projects.

Venom (2022) Directed by Shawn Levy

Eddie Brock/Venom = Wentworth Miller

Anne Weying = Michelle Williams

Cletus Kassidy/Carnage = Dan Stevens

Shriek = Evangeline Lilly

FBI Agent Patrick Mulligan = Stephen Graham

Agent Alton Clark = Leslie Odom Jr.

Agent Monica Steen = Italia Ricci

Agent Garon Lewis = Terrence Howard

Dr Ashley Kafka = Keri Russell

While giving Venom a solo film run was a good idea on Sony’s part, their execution hasn’t been all one could wish.  By comparison, my 90’s MCU introduced the symbiote via the Secret Wars films based on the 1980’s original Secret Wars comic arc that was the symbiote’s debut in comics.  We then had Spider-Man 5 and Spider-Man 6 showcase the alien costume arc, complete with Venom’s initial appearance as a Spider-Man enemy.  In this film, we’re therefore better prepared to give Venom a first solo outing because past films have us the same background to the character that we got in the comics.  The plot is largely around Brock being treated at Ravencroft, but when a new symbiote bonds with fellow Ravencroft inmate Cletus Kassidy, thereby releasing Carnage upon the world, Venom may be the only person who can stop it.

The film retains Michelle Williams and Stephen Graham from Sony’s Venom films and Wentworth Miller is back from his prior appearance in this MCU as Venom, as is Keri Russell as Dr Ashley Kafka.  Everyone else is fresh casting under director Shawn Levy.  I originally planned for Taika Waititi to be at the helm, but given his poor performance on Thor: Love and Thunder and subsequently declared lack of knowledge, fandom and preparation for directing Thor films, I have doubts regarding his ability to handle anything of an adaptational nature.  By comparison, Levy’s work on Deadpool and Wolverine is better, so I would have more confidence in his ability to get a decent horror-comedy out of the Venom character.

Great Lakes Avengers (2022) Directed by Rian Johnson

Craig Hollis/Mr Immortal = Luke Grimes

Ashley Crawford/Big Bertha = Rachel Brosnahan

Dr Val Ventura/Flatman = Chad Michael Murray

DeMarr Davis/Doorman = Jesse Williams

Dinah Soar = Ana de Armas

Doreen Green/Squirrel Girl = Paris Berelc

Maelstrom = Sam Witwer

Phaeder = Jack Coleman

Morga = Sharon Stone

Gene Lorrene/Leather Boy = Nick Gehlfuss

Kamala Khan/Ms Marvel = Odeya Rush

Luke Cage = Tyrese Gibson

Hawkeye II/Kate Bishop = Hailee Steinfeld

Aside from Deadpool, only one other Marvel comic that I know of has the ability to poke some very self-aware fun at the superhero world, and that’s the Great Lakes Avengers.  Originally created in the comics at a time when the Avengers had their main comic and a West Coast Avengers spin-off, the GLA gives us a truly bizarre group of characters, and I think it would be interesting to see them hit the big screen.  Except for a few returning characters from the main Avengers group of this time, the film is all-new casting under director Rian Johnson.  In the case of this film, I specifically hunted for actors from the Great Lakes region of the US for many of the roles for added authenticity.

Tabita Smith* = Anna Faris

Rahne Sinclair/Wolfsbane = Bonnie Wright

Black Bolt = Pierce Brosnan

Medusa = Elizabeth Hurley

Crystal = Dina Meyer

Gorgon = J.G. Hertzler

Karnak = Alexander Siddig

Triton = Orlando Bloom

Dante Pertuz/Inferno = Diego Boneta

Daisy Johnson/Quake = Willa Holland

Jonothan Starsmore/Chamber = Tom Holland

Hisako Ichiki/Armor = Inori Minase

Monet St Croix/M* = Maitreyi Ramakrishnan

Megan Gwynn/Pixie = Alexa Davies

Neal Shaara/Thunderbird* = Karan Brar

Brian Braddock Jr./Captain Britain = Jamie Bamber

Betsy Braddock/Psylocke = Lena Headey

Meggan = Sienna Miller

Eros/Starfox = Joel McHale

Sersi = Gemma Chan

Gilgamesh = Don Lee

Doreen Green/Squirrel Girl = Paris Berelc

Queen Veranke = Tessa Thompson

Super-Skrull = Luke Evans

Citri Noll = Theo James

Dard'van = Dane DeHaan

Skrull Infiltrator 1 = Billy Magnussen

Skrull Infiltrator 2 = Jenna Coleman

Skrull Infiltrator 3 = Nicholas Hoult

Skrull Infiltrator 4 = Rachael Taylor

Skrull Super-Soldier 1 = Mike Colter

Skrull Super-Soldier 2 = Finn Jones

Skrull Super-Soldier 3 = Eve Torres

Skrull Super-Soldier 4 = Valentina Shevchenko

At last, we come to Secret Invasion, which dives right in on the Skrull invasion beginning across all the active super-groups in the MCU at this point.  What follows then focuses on a few key groups of true humans as they all begin trying to work out what is happening and fight back in one giant ensemble piece.  All the characters with asterisks next to their names are the people replaced by Skrulls prior to the film, with key characters getting flashbacks to show when they were replaced, and an expanded dossier on this being a Blu-Ray extra.  Of course, the real characters will appear as well, and we have some alternative actors present to play the Skrulls themselves, though a few cast members would likely also get to double as additional Skrulls here and there for added fun.  In terms of direction, I’m going with JJ Abrams based on his work on the second of the Star Trek reboot films.  The kind of shell-game involving “John Harrison” and Admiral Marcus is not unlike the unveiling of the Secret Invasion, so it’s a logical match-up of director and material to my mind.

Howling Commandos (2023) Directed by James Gunn

Jack Russell/Werewolf by Night = Scott Eastwood

Danny Ketch/Ghost Rider II = Andrew Garfield

N'Kantu The Living Mummy = Omar Metwally

Frank = Bill Goldberg

Nina Price/Vampire by Night = Anya Taylor-Joy

Satana Hellstrom = Krysten Ritter

Elsa Bloodstone = Georgie Henley

Jericho Drumm/Brother Voodoo = Doug E. Doug

Vlad Tepish/Dracula = Mads Mikkelsen

Mephistopheles = Jeffery Combs

Baron Karl Mordo = Michael Dorn

Esteban Corazón de Ablo/Diablo = Wilmer Valderrama

Dragon Man (CGI Character) = Terry Notary

Umar = Ruth Wilson

Lily Cromwell = Emilia Clarke

Rachel Van Helsing = Cote De Pablo

Abigail Brand = Kristen Wiig

Clay Quartermain = Patrick Wilson

Daisy Dugan = Hayley Atwell

While this film’s title might suggest to some Marvel fans a long overdue focus on Nick Fury and his squad from World War II, others will understand that’s not the only group of Howling Commandos in Marvel history.  Among the later iterations of the group is a SHIELD-run group of monsters similar to DC’s Creature Commandos, and indeed this monster-based version of the HCs has seen some life in animation via the Ultimate Spider-Man and Agents of SMASH animated shows.  As such, our first film post-Secret Invasion focuses on this group coming together more formally (a previous informal attempt having been made under Blade in his third and final film).  Owing to the similarity to the DC Creature Commandos, whose animated show will be a leading element in James Gunn’s DCU, I was inspired to put him at the helm of this film.

Wolverine: Sins of the Father (2023) Directed by Paul Greengrass

Wolverine/Logan = Tom Cruise

Laura Kinney/X-23 = Dafne Keen

John Wraith = Djimon Hounsou

Sarah/Marrow = Sarah Hyland

Romulus = Raoul Bova

Akihiro/Daken = John Cho

Arkady Rossovich/Omega Red = David Harbour

Sabretooth/Victor Creed = Tyler Mane

Maria Callasantos/Feral = Daniela Melchior

Itsu = Tamlyn Tomita

Akihira = Brian Tee

Natsumi = Rinko Kikuchi

To finish off phase 8 and complete the Wolverine duology, I decided to adapt a more modern Wolverine story arc which, although not one I’ve read, does give the character some closure on his past, something I think would be interesting to see.  The long and short of it is that Wolverine is trying to recover from the depletion of his healing factor after the events of Fatal Attractions when he and old friend John Wraith stumble upon Wolverine’s clone daughter, X-23, and an investigation of her origins inadvertently tips Wolverine to his own deep past, in the process also putting Wolverine at odds with his other previously unknown child, Daken.  For direction, Paul Greengrass returns, and we have an interesting mix of old casting and new, including the retention of the Fox X-Verse casting of Dafne Keen as X-23.

This brings phase 8 of my hypothetical 90’s-commenced MCU to a close.  The last phase will drop fairly early in 2025 (not the first month of the year but among the initial months, certainly), while next month’s ramble will take us back to my Poirot fan-cast to close out 2024.  Until my next ramble, ta-ta for now.

Mengapa PlayStation 5 Menjadi Konsol Terlaris di Generasi Ini?

Sejak dirilis pada November 2020, PlayStation 5 (PS5) langsung mencatat rekor penjualan yang luar biasa, menjadikannya salah satu konsol terlaris dalam sejarah gaming. Di tengah persaingan sengit dengan kompetitor seperti Xbox Series X|S dan Nintendo Switch, PS5 berhasil memimpin pasar generasi konsol terkini. Namun, apa yang membuat PS5 begitu sukses? Berikut adalah beberapa alasan utama yang menjadikan PS5 konsol terlaris di generasi ini.

1. Performa Teknologi yang Mengesankan

PS5 hadir dengan spesifikasi teknis yang mengesankan, termasuk:

CPU dan GPU Kuat: Didukung oleh prosesor AMD Zen 2 dan arsitektur grafis RDNA 2, PS5 memberikan performa luar biasa untuk game modern.

Teknologi SSD Ultra Cepat: Waktu loading yang hampir instan memberikan pengalaman gaming yang lebih mulus. Ini sangat terlihat pada game seperti Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, yang memanfaatkan transisi antar dunia tanpa jeda.

Dukungan Resolusi hingga 4K dan 120 FPS: Visual tajam dengan frame rate tinggi memberikan pengalaman yang sangat imersif.

Teknologi ini memungkinkan pengembang menciptakan dunia game yang lebih detail, kompleks, dan realistis dibandingkan generasi sebelumnya.

2. Deretan Game Eksklusif Berkualitas Tinggi

PlayStation dikenal dengan katalog game eksklusif yang menarik hati pemain, dan PS5 tidak terkecuali. Game seperti:

Demon’s Souls (Remake)

Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales

Horizon Forbidden West

God of War: Ragnarök

Final Fantasy XVI

Game-game ini menunjukkan kekuatan PS5, baik dari segi visual, gameplay, maupun narasi. Eksklusivitas ini menjadi daya tarik besar bagi para pemain yang mencari pengalaman bermain yang unik dan tak dapat ditemukan di konsol lain.

3. Dukungan Backward Compatibility

PS5 mendukung backward compatibility untuk sebagian besar game PS4, menjadikannya konsol yang menarik bagi pemilik PS4 yang ingin melanjutkan koleksi gamenya di platform baru.

Pemain dapat menikmati game PS4 dengan peningkatan performa, seperti waktu loading lebih cepat dan frame rate lebih stabil.

Fitur ini juga memberikan nilai lebih, terutama bagi pemain yang ingin menikmati game favorit lama mereka dengan teknologi terkini.

4. Desain Futuristik dan DualSense Controller

Desain PS5 yang futuristik menjadi perbincangan sejak pertama kali diumumkan. Konsol ini tampil beda dengan warna putih yang dominan dan bentuk yang unik. Namun, inovasi terbesar adalah pada DualSense Controller, yang menawarkan:

Haptic Feedback: Memberikan sensasi berbeda pada setiap aksi dalam game, seperti menarik busur panah atau melintasi permukaan yang kasar.

Adaptive Triggers: Tombol L2 dan R2 yang memberikan resistansi sesuai aksi, menambah kedalaman gameplay.

DualSense tidak hanya inovatif, tetapi juga meningkatkan pengalaman bermain, menjadikannya salah satu alasan utama pemain memilih PS5.

5. Ekosistem PlayStation yang Kuat

Sony telah membangun ekosistem PlayStation yang solid selama beberapa dekade. Layanan seperti:

PlayStation Plus: Menawarkan akses ke game gratis setiap bulan, diskon eksklusif, dan mode multiplayer online.

PlayStation Now: Membuka akses ke koleksi game yang bisa di-streaming atau diunduh.

Ekosistem ini membuat pemain merasa diinvestasikan dalam platform PlayStation, dengan transisi yang mulus ke PS5.

6. Pemasaran dan Brand Awareness yang Efektif

Sony berhasil memasarkan PS5 sebagai konsol premium yang menawarkan pengalaman bermain terbaik. Dengan kampanye iklan yang menonjolkan game eksklusif, teknologi mutakhir, dan DualSense Controller, mereka mampu menarik perhatian pemain lama maupun baru.

Ditambah lagi, PlayStation memiliki reputasi kuat sejak era PS1, menjadikannya nama yang dipercaya oleh pemain di seluruh dunia.

7. Tantangan Persaingan yang Menguntungkan

Meskipun Xbox Series X|S menawarkan performa yang sebanding, kurangnya game eksklusif kuat dari Xbox menjadi keuntungan besar bagi Sony.

Nintendo Switch, meskipun populer, lebih sering dianggap sebagai konsol pelengkap dengan fokus pada game keluarga.

PS5 berhasil mengisi ruang untuk pemain yang mencari pengalaman gaming premium, dengan game berkualitas tinggi dan performa terbaik.

8. Adaptasi terhadap Tren Gaming Modern

Sony berhasil mengikuti tren modern, seperti:

Ray Tracing: Memberikan pencahayaan dan refleksi realistis pada game.

8K Gaming (Masa Depan): PS5 telah siap untuk mendukung teknologi ini.

Streaming dan Konten Kreator: PS5 dilengkapi dengan fitur perekaman dan streaming bawaan yang memudahkan kreator membagikan momen bermain mereka.

Sony juga aktif mendukung pengembang indie, sehingga katalog game PS5 mencakup berbagai genre yang dapat dinikmati oleh semua tipe pemain.

Kesimpulan

Kombinasi teknologi canggih, game eksklusif berkualitas tinggi, inovasi seperti DualSense, dan strategi pemasaran yang kuat menjadikan PlayStation 5 konsol terlaris di generasi ini. Sony tidak hanya menawarkan perangkat keras yang kuat, tetapi juga pengalaman bermain yang lengkap dan memuaskan.

Dengan roadmap game yang menjanjikan dan terus beradaptasi dengan teknologi masa depan, PS5 siap mempertahankan dominasinya di dunia gaming. Apakah Anda sudah memiliki PS5 atau masih mempertimbangkan untuk membelinya? Pastikan Anda tidak melewatkan revolusi gaming ini!

PlayStation's PC Strategy Is Going Well As Ghost Of Tsushima Was The Best-Selling Game Of May 2024

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/playstations-pc-strategy-is-going-well-as-ghost-of-tsushima-was-the-best-selling-game-of-may-2024/

PlayStation's PC Strategy Is Going Well As Ghost Of Tsushima Was The Best-Selling Game Of May 2024

PlayStation’s PC efforts are paying off, if the latest U.S. Video Game Market Highlights report from analyst group Circana is any indication. That’s because developer Sucker Punch Production’s Ghost of Tsushima, which originally launched on PlayStation 4 back in 2020, was the best-selling game of May 2024 in the U.S. And that’s almost assuredly due to the recent PC release of Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut on May 16. 

Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut hit PC almost four years after the game’s initial launch on PS4, which speaks to PlayStation’s PC release strategy it detailed last month. It said its live-service games, like this year’s Helldivers 2 or the upcoming 5v5 hero shooter Concord, will launch day-and-date on PC, but its tentpole single-player games, like Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut and God of War Ragnarök (hitting PC this September), will launch at later dates.

The rest of the top 10 for May 2024 looks like this: 

Ghost of Tsushima

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III

Helldivers II

MLB: The Show 24

Sea of Thieves

Minecraft

Elden Ring

Hogwarts Legacy

Stellar Blade

And here’s what the top 20 best-selling games of the entire year look like: 

Year-to-Date Ending May 2024 Top 20 Best-Selling Premium Games – U.S. (Dollar Sales, Physical and Digital from digital data sharing publishers, excludes add-on content) pic.twitter.com/Wnacwg4ixw

— Mat Piscatella (@MatPiscatella) July 8, 2024

For May 2024, content spending fell 3% compared to May 2023, down to $3.6 billion, even despite a 13% growth in mobile content spending. However, that 13% increase in mobile spending was offset heavily by a 40% drop in console content spending, according to Circana executive director Mat Piscatella. He attributes the May 2024 console spending decline (compared to May 2023) to the strength of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’s launch last year. 

Elsehwere in the report, Piscatella says video game hardware spending declined 40% as well when compared to May 2023, down to $202 million. “Through May, all current generation hardware platforms are showing double-digit percentage declines year-on-year in 2024, with Switch showing the most significant drop,” Piscatella writes on X (formerly Twitter). 

The PlayStation 5 led May 2024’s hardware market in unit and dollar sales, with the Switch in second for unit sales and the Xbox Series X/S in second for dollar sales. Throughout each console’s 43 months on the market, the PS5 is up by 8% compared to the PS4 and the Xbox Series X/S is down 13% compared to the Xbox One. 

May spending on video game accessories dropped 8% when comparing May 2024 to May of last year, and the PlayStation Portal was the best-selling accessory in dollar sales for the month – it’s also the best-selling accessory for the entire year.

I wish I had not deleted my old tumblr. I wish I had not burnt my teenage diaries at 18. I had done so in the hope of raising like a phoenix from the ashes. Do over. Do better this time. Operate from a clean slate. Ragnarök. As a child I had hopes for the world - all humans leaving the planet in a spaceship and destroying everything that had been. Subsequently distributing the planet to all humans, everyone would get a house, a garden and there would be no pollution, no war, only prosperity and harmony. In those visions there was a lot of green, green meadows, white houses, smiles and laughter, happy faces. In a way this has been a theme my whole life. I had wished to start anew, over and over and over. So many times. Until I couldn’t look ahead anymore, because too many things had happened. I realised that I missed myself, longed to be me again, longed to be back there, longed to be again the girl I forgot I had hated so much.

so how's the discord server handling season 3 haha

Well, we are chatting about it, and theories are being thrown around, but otherwise, it's pretty decent and chill reactions.

You can find my first time watching reactions typed in there to each episode, and they are pretty funny
