Grinding Gear Games (Ggg) brought Path of Exile into this world and made a big splash in the Arpg genre. The game has since been one of the most popular titles in the genre, and its recently released Early Access sequel is one of the most-played games on Steam right now. Despite this, Ggg has continued to add content to the first game.

The Legacy of Phrecia event in Path of Exile introduces a new endgame specialization system that has been a big change to how players approach the game’s endgame. And the developers might be surprised to learn that the majority of the players don’t like it at all. Why? Well, you won’t be surprised by the reason.

Path of Exile got an update but no one likes it If this is a beta...

All good dreams must come to an end sooner or later, and so it goes that a very good Dream is about to come to an end imminently on Netflix. In news that will likely come as a surprise to precisely nobody, today the streaming giant has announced that its dark fantasy epic The Sandman will conclude with the release of its upcoming second season. Officially, the line is that the series is finishing because the story of Tom Sturridge's Morpheus — aka Dream — is coming to its natural end. And while that is doubtless a key factor, much like Prime Video's suddenly cut short Good Omens, it's hard not to assume that the serious and ongoing allegations of sexual misconduct that have been brought against creator Neil Gaiman in recent months have played their part in Netflix's decision to pull the plug. You can read a statement on the...

Jake Busey has taken on aliens in the likes of The Predator and Starship Troopers, vampires in From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series, and was even a rampaging ghost himself in The Frighteners. With credits like The Reckoning, The Lair, and Duchess, we’ve also seen Charlotte Kirk face off with a variety of threats. But Busey and Kirk are set to take on their biggest challenge yet in the upcoming horror comedy CATnip: feral killer cats.

Coming Soon reports that CATnip is scheduled to begin filming in Los Angeles next month. Written and directed by Nyle Cavazos Garcia, who is also producing the film with Rob Margolies and Keli Price, CATnip is described as “Gremlins for grown-ups.”

Here’s the synopsis: The Betancourt family has just moved from the projects of New York City to an up-and-coming neighborhood in San Pedro, CA, hoping for a fresh start and better life.

Path of Exile 2 has had an explosive debut getting over hundreds of thousands of players in its first month. And while the game already has a massive community and good player retention, its co-op system has been a big sore point.

The game has been one of the biggest hits in recent memory, but it has this big flaw. | Image Credit: Grinding Gear Games.

While the game offers crossplay and couch co-op, many issues have been reported by players. The reports include uneven loot distribution, lack of progression parity, and problematic level scaling. This has made playing with your friends very difficult and annoying, especially if you’re the higher level player.

Path of Exile 2 is very good, but it’s not without issues There’s a surprising amount of problems here. | Image Credit: Grinding Gear Games.

One of the most glaring issues is the disparity in loot distribution during co-op encounters.

DC Studios is now on the other side of the tumultuous time it had in the past couple of years. Warner Bros. appointed James Gunn and Peter Safran to reshape the deteriorating situation. And under the wing of the greats the franchise has now geared up to enter a new phase.

The Dcu (transitioned from Dceu), is overlooking an eventful year with 2025. Although this is a total revamp of the established series, some projects are just too good to not return. With trust in the old and hopes for the new, DC Studios has presented a promising lineup for the year. These projects are meant to replenish the roots DC has in its fans’ hearts.

Following are movies and TV shows set by studio heads to gain critical acclaim, TV ratings, and box office figures. And hopefully, put the franchise back on the map.

The Sandman, Netflix's acclaimed adaptation of Neil Gaiman's iconic DC comic series, is gearing up for its highly anticipated season 2, and star Jenna Coleman has confirmed her return.

Argyris (Claudio Kaya) and Mary (Konstantina Messini) in Buzzheart. Messini: 'I think Dennis has created something unique' Photo: Courtesy of Poff Buzzheart is a claustrophobic family affair largely playing out over the course of a single weekend. The family focus and its disturbing atmosphere mean Dennis Iliadis’ latest film certainly shares plenty of DNA with the Greek Weird Wave but there is also more than a whisper of US-style genre films, including Get Out, about this psychological thriller, perhaps no surprise since the director has also made several films Stateside, including Delirium and the Last House On The Left remake.

Argyris (Claudio Kaya) is every inch the average 19-year-old but his life takes a turn for the strange after he encounters physiotherapy masseuse Mary (Konstantina Messini) - from whom he is hoping for a little extra - and she invites him on a dating weekend. The only hitch is, it will include meeting her parents.

The Sandman‘s Morpheus… does not seem to have lightened up much in Season 2 of the Netflix drama.

To wit: TVLine’s month-long #2025FirstLook series continues with an exclusive — and intense — behind-the-scenes shot of Tom Sturridge on the set of the fantasy’s sophomore season. While we’re not exactly sure what Sturridge’s Morpheus is doing in the scene, we know a) it likely involves ancient magic, and b) whichever character the camera is standing in for might want to duck.

Amazon MGM Studios and producer Scott Stuber have teamed up to acquire the film adaptation rights to an adult mystery thriller novel proposal by bestselling author Lauren Oliver, and Deadline reports that Black Widow star Scarlett Johansson has boarded the project with the intention of producing it alongside Stuber… and, if she likes the script, she’ll also sign on to play the title character of The Girl in the Lake.

Plot details are being kept under wraps, but the story has been described as being along the lines of “What Lies Beneath meets The Sixth Sense.” So it sounds like there might be something supernatural going on with the girl in the lake.

Oliver is currently writing the screenplay. Johansson and Jonathan Lia will be producing the film through Johansson’s company These Pictures, while Marc Resteghini produces through Jack Tar Pictures. In addition to Scott Stuber, another producer...

Exclusive: Amazon MGM Studios and Scott Stuber have acquired The Girl in the Lake, a proposal for an adult mystery thriller novel by New York Times bestselling author Lauren Oliver. Oliver will write the script for a film that will be developed for United Artists. Scarlett Johansson is eyeing this to star as the title character, subject to script, Deadline hears.

Stuber and Nick Nesbitt will produce along with Johansson and Jonathan Lia, through These Pictures, and Marc Resteghini (Young Sherlock) through Jack Tar Pictures. Oliver will also serve as executive producer.

The logline is being kept under wraps but when Verve held the auction, the novel was being described as What Lies Beneath meets The Sixth Sense. This was a high-end screen deal and a publishing auction is in the offing. Oliver’s making the jump to an adult thriller after writing YA novels that include Panic; the Delirium trilogy Delirium,...

Incoming The Sandman star Douglas Booth gives fans a promising update about the series' upcoming second season.

Speaking to Collider, Booth discussed some minor details regarding his character, the Cluracan, which may have major implications for where the second season of Netflix's The Sandman is headed. "So, I play the Cluracan, and he's a really fun character to play," Booth said. "I had so much fun with him. Ann Skelly was brilliant as Nuala. There's not much I can say because I've never been on a project where they're so secretive, and they make you sign so many things. But what I can tell you is the world-building is brilliant. It's gone up a level even from series one. And all the additional cast is fantastic. Tom [Sturridge] is brilliant."

The public won’t get to see what’s going to go down in the $4 million battle between Love Is Blind contestant Renee Poche and producers Delirium and Netflix.

“The motion to compel arbitration is granted as to Defendants Delirium TV, LLC and Netflix, Inc.,” ruled LA Superior Court Judge Bruce G. Iwasaki today after a downtown hearing. “This matter is stayed pending the outcome of arbitration.”

“The parties have clearly agreed to delegate the Court’s responsibility to determine arbitrability to the arbitrator to decide,” the judge added of the ‘clear and unmistakable” language in Poche’s nondisclosure agreement. “The matter is delegated to the arbitrator to decide all the substantive issues raised by Plaintiff’s opposition to arbitration.”

In the sometimes contentious hearing itself, Judge Iwasaki put it even more bluntly: “The court is stuck with the contract. That’s the contract.”

Love Is Blind season 5 contestant, Renee, has filed a lawsuit against Netflix and Delirium, alleging emotional distress and labor law violations. Renee claims to have felt like a prisoner during filming and lacked support when expressing safety concerns. The lawsuit accuses Netflix and Delirium of intentional infliction of emotional distress and aims to nullify Renee's contract, restricting her from speaking out.

Love Is Blind season 5's Renee Poche has chosen to strike back with a lawsuit of her own against Netflix and the series production company, Delirium, alleging she was allegedly made to be emotionally distressed and that the series violated labor laws. While Love Is Blind season 5 featured several couples, Renee and Carter Wall were shocked to find themselves cut from the series during its initial airing. Though their relationship didn't make it through the season, they were filmed and shared the experience together, so both were stunned to...

Former Love Is Blind contestant Renee Poche claimed her ex-fiancé on the show was violent and emotionally abusive, and that the show’s producers were well aware of these issues and did little to help.

I usually don’t pay too much attention to what the church has to say, but then The Catholic Review referred to Deliver Us as “A blast furnace of blasphemy” and continued, saying that “Deliver Us” (Magnet), also is an amalgam of gore and nudity.” How could I pass up a film that came so highly recommended?

It certainly opens on a bloody note as a row of kneeling men and women are killed and skinned for the elaborate tattoos on their backs. In a remote Russian convent Sister Yulia awakes from a nightmare of the killings and finds she’s showing the signs of the Stigmata. Even more shocking, she’s pregnant with twins, and still a virgin.

Jamie Childs, who directed four episodes of The Sandman Season 1, teased what fans can expect to see in the upcoming installment of Netflix’s Neil Gaiman adaptation.

In an interview with Screen Rant, Childs opened up about how different The Sandman Season 2 will be from the first season. He revealed that the creative team is now more confident going into the next season since they now have knowledge of what worked in Season 1 and what they needed to improve. "We know what worked and didn't," he said. "We know now coming at it, it was scary coming out at the first time because it's like, we're the first time putting that on screen and everyone who's tried historically has not managed it yet. So we're like, what's different about us? Nothing. We could just mess this up or whatever. But we did Season 1 stuff really works. Some stuff we felt worked less.

The SAG-AFTRA strike has halted filming for The Sandman part 2, according to creator Neil Gaiman. Based on Gaiman's graphic novel series of the same name, the Netflix show centers on Lord Morpheus, cosmic controller of all dreams, attempts to regain control of his realm after being held prisoner for over a century. After the show's wildly successful first batch of episodes, The Sandman was quickly greenlit for further episodes, with filming kicking off in late June.

Just a day after the renewal contract between SAG-AFTRA and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) expired, Gaiman took to BlueSky (per GamesRadar+) to announced that shooting for The Sandman part 2 has stopped completely.

Neil Gaiman admits that Despair's portrayal in Netflix's The Sandman missed the mark. Based on Gaiman's comic series of the same name, The Sandman was adapted into a Netflix television series in August 2022.

Sex and violence, beauty and madness, shoulder pads and pitchforks being stuck in eyeball-faced models. All signs point to Italy in the ‘80s, and Lamberto Bava’s Delirium (1987) fits the bill with murder, mystery, and bee-faced models. What, you think eyeballs get all the fun?

Delirium was released by Medusa Distribuzione in its homeland in April under its original title, Le Foto Di Gioia, and stars Serena Grandi (Antropophagus) as Gioia, the owner of a men’s magazine called Pussycat. When her models start turning up dead, she must figure out who is killing everyone around her, and if she’s the final target. A perfectly normal thriller for the time, yes?
