The series Monarch jumps between two time periods: the mid-1950s to early 1960s, and 2015-2017. Wyatt Russell (Thunderbolts) portrays a younger version of Lee Shaw, while his father, Kurt Russell, plays the older version of the same character. Due to some time travel involving events in the 1980s, Kurt Russell’s character isn’t quite as old as he would be, but that’s another story. In both time periods, Lee Shaw was a key figure in Monarch’s work to research and comprehend the massive Titans.

This preview feels like an American impression of a British Saturday Night Live. It perfectly copies the original show’s opening cityscape and even the line, “Live, from London, it’s Saturday night” is unintentionally humorous, especially when followed by a list of very British names. The cast includes Hammed Animashaun, Ania Magliano, Ayoade Bamgboye, Celeste Dring, George Fouracres, Larry Dean, Annabel Marlow, Al Nash, Jack Shep, Emma Sidi, and Paddy Young. (It seems we’re also importing one of the biggest issues with the American SNL: a cast that’s too large.)

The official John Wick Collector’s Set from Lionsgate and Pirate Gold Poker has everything you need to host a poker night. It comes in a sturdy black case with custom-fit foam lining and includes 50 Continental gold coins, 250 poker chips, a special dealer stack, two collectible card decks, and a Certificate of Authenticity. This set looks so authentic, you could imagine using it in The Continental hotel.

The popular hot sauce brand, Texas Pete, recently released a short preview of its upcoming movie. The film is a playful parody set in a remote town called Flavorado, where a brave protagonist battles a villain who attacks with spaghetti. Our hero’s secret weapon? The fiery taste of Texas Pete, of course! Appropriately titled Spaghetti Western, the teaser has definitely caught our attention.

Like the Snorlax and Vaporeon Ditto transformations, this new launch features Ditto disguised as a wide variety of Pokémon. What’s great is that The Pokémon Center didn’t just pick the most popular choices – they got really creative with some unexpected Pokémon like Omanyte and Electrode, which you don’t often see as merchandise.

Sharma announced the start of his leadership with a tweet. He clarified that ‘Project Helix’ is just a placeholder name, and the actual new Xbox will likely be called Xbox followed by a number or letter. Importantly, Sharma’s announcement signaled that Microsoft still plans to continue making hardware, despite what many people thought.
