There's a ton of reasons to look forward to Matrix Resurrections---but also some reasons to be worried. Will the latest from Lana Wachowski just add up to an overly self-referential re-bake of the original series? Or will we be left saying, "Whoa?" Then, will recent anti-scalper laws make a dent in the resell hell of PS5s, Xbox Series Xs and more? Moreover, is there hope for us all when our lawmakers are so, so out of touch with current tech and trends? We ask it all and...answer some of it whil...

Between a fresh new trailer for Spider-Man No Way Home to the news that Mel Gibson is set to direct the fifth (final?) installment of Lethal Weapon, there's a ton of film news to reel in. Is the world ready to welcome back the aged action star and documented antisemite/racist? That fall from grace was far, but will it keep people from the box office in the 2020s? The brew boys also toast to the dulcet tones of Silk Sonic, a masterful pairing of Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak. NOTE: The Taylor Swi...

First off, the boys have to give it up for the big curtain call for one of the greatest games of all time: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Closing out the incredible fighter roster is Sora from the Kingdom Hearts series -- a welcomed surprise considering that KH's connection to Disney (and all the intellectual property nightmares that come with it).

But even with the shoddy robot shark and comparatively glacial pace compared to modern jump-cut-filled blockbusters, it deserves a viewing from those who've skipped it assuming it's an outdated relic of the past. Plus, Amazon boots HBO MAX subscribers, why Hollywood needs more martial arts action and a quick once-over of PlayStation Showcase 2021. Cheer...

In this hip hop-centric episode, the bois talk newcomer Coi Leray's fast rise to fame, alongside some loud hate coming just as quickly as the XXL Magazine features and festival sets. Industry plant gone wrong, or unfairly maligned up-and-comer? We'll let you decide. Then, rap star DaBaby put his foot in his mouth and seems to like the taste. After a ramblingly homophobic ad-lib at his Rolling Loud Festival set, he's only doubled (now, after recording, TRIPLED down) on those remarks. Though big n...

The WWE superstar-turned-actor John Cena is famous for his all-American persona. But this time the performer put on a show for China in the form of an apology. His big mistake? Daring to refer to Taiwan as a country while on the press junket for F9. Should Cena have apologized when the People’s Republic of China is an authoritarian, human-rights-violating regime? Was he pressured by the studio to speak up to save that almighty international box office? Is China’s hand too heavy in America’s film...
