There should be a big 'twist' in Rick and Morty Season 4 episode 4/5

| Dec 3, 2019 1:39 AM CST

We are currently waiting for Rick and Morty Season 4, episode 4, and during this small holiday break, theories have been formed together that point towards the next couple of episodes containing a massive twist.

There should be a big 'twist' in Rick and Morty Season 4 episode 4/5

Firstly, if you haven't seen the third episode of season 4, this article will contain spoilers as it will be linking to some events that were shown in that episode. At the end of the third episode, Rick, Morty and Mr. Poopybutthole are on top of Rick's house having a drink, Mr. Poopybutthole says, "owweeee big storm coming", Rick then replies, "could be a twister". Its believed that this "big twister" is not in reference to an actual storm, but instead to the show's storyline, and here's why.

During Comic-Con this year, all of the main voice actors sat down, and one of the questions that they were asked was "What are you most excited for fans to see?". The replies indicated that within the first five episodes of the season, there would be a big moment during a post-credit scene of one of the episodes that would be a huge teaser for season 5. Justin Roiland says, "We have a tag in season 4 that's going to tease some sh*t up for season 5". So what could this "twist" be?

John Boyega is to blame for leaked Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker script

| Nov 27, 2019 9:27 PM CST

If you didn't already know, the script for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker was leaked but we didn't know who -- we knew it would've been one of the principal actors, but now we know exactly who it was: John Boyega.

John Boyega is to blame for leaked Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker script

In a recent interview with Boyega and Good Morning America, the Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Rise of Skywalker star said he had the script under his bed, had his boys around partying it up, and left it there. He was in the middle of moving, and cleaners came through and discovered it -- throwing it on eBay for just $84 on eBay, obviously not knowing how valuable an unreleased Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker script would be.

Boyega said: "I was like, I will leave it under my bed and when I wake up the next morning, I will take it and then move. But then my boys came over and we started partying a little bit. And the script, it just stayed there. And a few weeks after, this cleaner comes in, finds this script and puts it on eBay for like 65 pounds (equivalent to $84). The person didn't know the true value".

Mysterious tweet indicates new Game of Thrones news is about to drop

| Nov 26, 2019 3:11 AM CST

After the ending of Game of Thrones back in May, fans have long hoped that the final season would get a remake. Perhaps this is a teaser for it?

Mysterious tweet indicates new Game of Thrones news is about to drop

A simple Tweet from the official Game of Thrones Twitter account has caused fans to put their speculation caps on. While I would certainly doubt that HBO is going to remake season 8 of Game of Thrones, some fans believe this could be a hint towards that very announcement.

It's much more likely that the Game of Thrones Twitter account is teasing fans for an announcement regarding the coming Game of Thrones prequel show -- House of the Dragon. House of the Dragon is centered around House Targaryen and will focus on the book Fire & Blood, which reveals a lot of the Targaryen's history. Another theory about the Tweet is that the Game of Thrones Twitter account is just warning everyone that Winter is actually coming in real-life. This would be a hilarious joke, but probably not the one Game of Thrones fans want to hear at the moment.

Rick and Morty Season 4 shorts: Elon Musk, Beth vs Summer & Netflix

| Nov 26, 2019 12:34 AM CST

Season 4 of Rick and Morty is off to a blast, and what's a better way to relive enjoying the season than some short clips showing some best moments.

Rick and Morty Season 4 shorts: Elon Musk, Beth vs Summer & Netflix

Before I continue, the clips included in this article are spoilers if you haven't seen any of the episodes of season 4. I would advise watching those episodes first before viewing, but if you can't contain yourself here, they are. First off, we have Mr. Poopybutthole taking on his students in an absolutely epic fighting scene that shows off that Mr. Poopybutthole still has it.

Next, we have Summer vs. Beth. This clip is from the second episode and is a clear reference to Captain America: Civil War's airport fight scene. Moving on to the next clip, we have Elon Tusk, which is a reference to Elon Musk, and who is also guest voiced by Musk. That clip is from the last episode, and so is the final one titled 'Netflix'. Here we see Morty present his movie heist idea to Netflix, and they absolutely love it. Remember Rick's shy pooping? Here's an explanation of what that actually means.

Star Wars: The Rise of the Skywalker script LEAKED, sold on eBay

| Nov 25, 2019 11:46 PM CST

If you can even believe it -- or maybe it's guerrilla hyping from Disney because of the issues Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is having before its release (word is, it's not great) -- the script for the latest movie in the Star Wars saga leaked and was sold on eBay.

Star Wars: The Rise of the Skywalker script LEAKED, sold on eBay

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker saw its script leaked and then found its way onto eBay, after one of the acts left it under their bed and was found by a cleaner. The script was given to someone else, and then it was put on eBay but an eagle-eyed person at the company sat this, and purchased it versus it going out to someone in the public before its big debut and spoiling J.J. Abrams' new movie.

J.J. Abrams recently said during a chat with Good Morning America: "One of our actors, I won't say which one - I want to, but I won't - left it under their bed and it was found by someone who was cleaning their place. And it was given to someone else, who then went to sell it on eBay. And someone at the company said 'You know there's a script that looks like it's a legit script that's for sale on eBay?' And so they got it back before it sold".

Rick and Morty Season 4 Episode 3 explained: Why Rick hates heists

| Nov 25, 2019 4:20 AM CST

Now that the third episode of Rick and Morty Season 4 has been released, we can jump into what happened and why. Who better to explain it than the creators themselves?

Rick and Morty Season 4 Episode 3 explained: Why Rick hates heists

For this week's episode release Adult Swim has posted a new video on their YouTube Channel titled 'Inside the Episode: One Crew Over The Crewcoo's Morty'. Throughout this video, we learn the reasoning behind why the creators decided to rip on heist movies by doing a heist themed episode, and where that hatred originated from. Before continuing, I will give a disclaimer that the following paragraph will contain spoilers from episode 3, read at your discretion.

Dan Harmon explains in the above video that this entire episode is based around his hatred for heist movies, and we can see that hatred personified in Ricks's actions and attitude. Right at the start of the episode where Rick and Morty are walking into the temple, Rick initiates 'anti-booby-trap suits' and then proceeds to easily pass through almost every trap from the classic Indiana Jones movies. The episode then continues to completely rip off the Oceans movie franchise with Rick playing George Clooney's character as he assembles his 'team'.

Rick and Morty Season 4 Episode 4 won't release next weekend

| Nov 25, 2019 2:50 AM CST

The third episode of Rick and Morty Season 4 has aired, and while it might 'steal' your attention, for the time being, don't get excited about next week's episode because it's not happening.

Rick and Morty Season 4 Episode 4 won't release next weekend

Comic Book has confirmed that Rick and Morty Season 4 will be going on a two-week break starting from now and will return with the fourth episode after this period. Comic Book says this news was confirmed through a new promo for the next episode, which can be seen above.

The reasoning for this hiatus from the fourth episode is most likely due to Thanksgiving being this weekend. So just to be clear, Rick and Morty Season 4 Episode 4 will NOT be aired on Sunday, December 1st, and instead return back to viewers on Sunday, December 8th. For those wondering how many episodes are in Season 4 as a whole, Adult Swim will be gifting us with 10 glorious episodes in two batches.

Phillips has said to IndieWire that a Joker sequel isn't currently in production despite the recent reports by other media outlets. THR reported that Phillips and Warner Bros. Pictures Group chairman Toby Emmerich met to discuss a potential sequel to the film, Deadline then reported that this meeting never actually happened. Now Phillips is clearing up all the news.

Here's what he has said, "While Joaquin and I have talked about it, and while touring the world with Warner Bros executives--going to Toronto, and Venice, and other places--of course, we're sitting at dinner and they're saying, 'So, have you thought about...?' But, talking about contracts, there's not a contract for us to even write a sequel, we've never approached Joaquin to be in a sequel."

| Nov 22, 2019 12:31 AM CST

Rick and Morty Season 4 episode 2 released this week, and if you haven't seen it then I'd advise watching the below video.

Rick and Morty Season 4 Episode 2 preview: Jerry's Mountain Sweat

Now that the spoiler disclaimer if over, lets move onto what we have above. Adult Swim have released the after-credits episode of Rick and Morty season 4 episode 2, showing Jerry venturing to the fridge and finding globafin. Jerry was most likely going for a midnight snack of some-sort and of course, does something completely stupid.

Jerry has a small part of the globafin, which if you don't know lets the drinker live out their absolutely wildest fantasies. Jerry's fantasty isn't that wild though, well it might be for him. After consuming some of the globafin, Jerry becomes a hard-working water delivery drive for Mountain Sweat. He drops off water to customers and installs the machines for them, getting compliments along the way. What does this after-credits scene show us?

Joker 2 not happening (yet), DC Comics has too much of a 'busy slate'

| Nov 21, 2019 2:07 AM CST

DC Comics' Joker movie laughed its way over the $1 billion-grossing mark at the box office, but does that mean we are going to be getting a follow-up movie?

Joker 2 not happening (yet), DC Comics has too much of a 'busy slate'

According to a new report by Variety, Warner Bros. film chief Toby Emmerich has met with the writer and director of Joker to see what ideas are currently being cooked up for a sequel. Variety says that insiders close to the talks have said that these discussions regarding a sequel are very young and that nothing is solidified as of yet. Meaning that there is no script, no roles confirmed, no storyline etc.

Other insiders said that Warner Bros and DC aren't talking about Todd Phillips doing another origin story of a DC comic-book character. Variety says that "Any "Joker" follow-up will take years to pull off, and DC has a busy slate". This "busy slate" includes the release of Wonder Women 1984, the new Batman movie with Robert Pattinson playing the Cape Crusader, and Margot Robbie's upcoming "Birds of Prey".

Rick and Morty Season 4 viewed by 100,000+ desperate people on Pornhub

| Nov 21, 2019 12:33 AM CST

Rick and Morty have returned with their fourth season, and while fans are scrambling to watch the episodes without paying or waiting for them to air freely, some fans have found some strange sources to view the new eps.

Rick and Morty Season 4 viewed by 100,000+ desperate people on Pornhub

Firstly, I don't condone any illegal viewing of Rick and Morty's new episodes; legitimate sources should only be used to view the new episodes. Unfortunately, though, not everyone will do that, because if there is a will there is a way, meaning people will find a way to pirate or view the new episodes no matter what. With that being said, fans have found quite the peculiar source to view the latest episodes, and it's none other than Pornhub.

Rick and Morty fans have taken to Twitter to share their connection to the new episodes. One Twitter fan wrote "Thanks pornhub for letting me watch Rick and Morty when no one else had it." Another also said, "I watched the new episode of Rick and Morty on Pornhub, what a world". It seems that when people were going to Pornhub for other purposes, they were coming across the new episode. Perhaps they were doing what they were originally intending to do when first visiting the site while watching the new episode. I mean, I'm not one to yuck someone else's yum, each to their own.

Henry Cavill says he's still Superman, now #ReleaseTheSnyderCut

| Nov 20, 2019 10:46 PM CST

There has been a cloud of doubt hanging over whether Henry Cavill was still playing the Man of Steel, but the Superman actor has now said the role is still his during an interview with Mens Health recently.

Henry Cavill says he's still Superman, now #ReleaseTheSnyderCut

Cavill said: "The cape is in the closet. It's still mine". The interview is filled with stories of Cavill's life, his previous roles in The Tudors, Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and the fabled (and oh-so-bad) Josstice League, I mean Justice League.

In regards to Cavill's thoughts on Batman v Superman, he said: "A great starting point. If I were to go back, I don't think I'd change anything. Very much a Batman movie. And I think that realm of darkness is great for a Batman movie".

Aquaman & Spiderman star Willem Dafoe: superhero movies are 'too long'

| Nov 19, 2019 2:36 AM CST

If you don't know who Willem Dafoe is, you'd probably recognize him from two movie roles, Spider-Man's Green Goblin and the recent blockbuster Aquaman.

Aquaman & Spiderman star Willem Dafoe: superhero movies are 'too long'

Despite his acting career taking him to movies that are comic book-based and his performances being amazing, Dafoe has given his opinion on the future of 'superhero' movies. Dafoe has joined Martin Scorsese in criticising superhero movies by saying that he finds them "too long and too noisy". This isn't all that Dafoe had to say, and he did admit that he doesn't want to "bite the hand that feeds me", but said that shooting Aquaman wasn't the same as shooting 2002's Spider-Man.

"Spider-Man was great fun because Sam Raimi made that like it was a little independent film. And also that was before a lot of the technology was in place, and comic book movies were fairly new, so it was exciting. There was nothing by the numbers, they didn't roll in the experts. Now it's become, the industry outgrew itself", said Dafoe. Comparing Spider-Man's shooting to Aquaman, he said "You have fun with some of the things that you get to do, because there's lots of hardware and there's lots of crazy crane shots and those kind of things."

This Rick and Morty Season 4 video explains what 'shy pooping' is

| Nov 19, 2019 12:11 AM CST

Ever wondered what it's like to be a shy pooper? Rick does, and in season 4 of Rick and Morty, we get to see what lengths he will go to keep his privacy.

This Rick and Morty Season 4 video explains what 'shy pooping' is

Disclaimer - This is a season 4 spoiler, so if you haven't seen episode 2 yet, this will certainly ruin a part of it. The above video has been released onto the official Rick and Morty YouTube Channel, and it shows Rick tracking down the alien who used his private toilet on a remote planet. The alien then expresses that he missed his dead wife and that life has been "hollow" since he has passed. He also says that he is a shy pooper.

All of what the alien says Rick sees in himself as insecurities, eventually not killing Tony but instead abuses him and leaves a really strange bomb on the table. The bomb then turns into a bunch of butts, these butts then fart and then a middle finger raises from the center, flipping off Tony. Tony then returns back to Rick's planet to take another dump, and then things get really philosophically deep. Check out the above video to know what happens.

Amazon is already working on Lord of the Rings TV series 'Season 2'

| Nov 18, 2019 9:44 PM CST

Lord of the Rings fans patiently await any news about the coming Amazon show, and after some time, we have got another snag, and its a big one.

Amazon is already working on Lord of the Rings TV series 'Season 2'

In an exclusive report from Deadline, Amazon Studios' 1 billion-dollar Lord of the Rings TV show is already moving forward with an early Season 2 renewal. According to Deadline, Amazon Studios head Jennifer Salke confirmed this news to them at a company holiday party this past Sunday and said that the studio currently has the second season in the works.

While season 2 has already been renewed, shooting wise, the LOTR series will be having a 4-5 month break after the first couple of episodes are shot. This allows for everyone working on the film a different perspective of the footage, gauge fan response, and make correctional changes with a fresh set of eyes. Since this TV show is high-budget, this seems like the most responsible and sensible approach, considering that filming this level of show is not cheap.

Rick and Morty Season 4 Episode 2 preview released 'Rick's Intern'

| Nov 16, 2019 11:05 PM CST

Adult Swim has released a new preview of the second episode to come to Rick and Morty Season 4, showing more of why you shouldn't develop an app with Glootie.

Rick and Morty Season 4 Episode 2 preview released 'Rick's Intern'

This episode, which is titled "The Old Man In The Seat" is a reference to Ernest Hemingway's "The Old Man And The Sea". If you are familiar with "The Old Man And The Sea" story, you would know that it's about an old man and his pursuit of catching a giant fish so he can finally rest.

It seems that Jerry is the 'old man' and developing an app with Glootie is his 'giant fish' to financial gain and notoriety. Little does Jerry know, and to Rick's full knowledge, developing an app with Glootie is how his species takes over planets. The app, which seems to be some form of alien-Tinder rip off called "Lovefinderrz" launches, and Jerry and Morty end up on the mother-ship to turn the server off.

Netflix has officially greenlighted The Witcher TV show season two

| Nov 14, 2019 6:12 AM CST

The first season of The Witcher TV show hasn't even released yet, and we already hearing about how there is going to be a second season.

Netflix has officially greenlighted The Witcher TV show season two

The news comes from the series' showrunner, Lauren S. Hissrich who announced on her personal Twitter that Geralt, Yennefer and Ciri "will be back for more adventures... in Season Two". The Tweet also came with a new image we haven't seen before, it features two swords next each other. To speculate a bit here, could one of these swords be the iron sword and the other be a silver sword? The same set up that Witchers carry?

If you have been following the Witcher news this announcement shouldn't really be that surprising for you as the hype for season one of the show hasn't slowed down since its announcement. Judging from what we have seen of the show so far, and how in particular Henry Cavil is playing Geralt, season two should be extremely welcomed. The only thing to worry about is if season one lives up to the hype following it, my bet is that it will, paving the way for a follow up season.
