Dora and the Lost City of Gold is the Dora The Explorer movie, and the character is a 7-year-old Latina girl, and she’s been 7 ever since the show began in 2000, so who better to play her than someone TEN years her senior. Yes, at the time of filming the actress was 17 years […]
Shenmue III is finally here, and once again, his name is Ryo and he dances on the sand… yes, that old rubbish joke still works for me after 19 years since I first tried it out. Although this title had a Kickstarter launched to fund it at E3 2015 – where it eclipsed the $2m […]
Anna and the Apocalypse is a film which was released in UK cinemas just before Xmas 2018, with the DVD in April 2019. For some unknown reason, like Upgrade, it’s taken some time for a Blu-ray to get released, but thankfully, the wait has been worth it as it has a ton of extras. Now, […]
The Irishman centres around former mob hitman Frank Sheeran (Robert De Niro) as is starts off in a care home, where he’s talking to someone about his life, but who? Even now I’ve watched the film, I’m not entirely sure… He talks about “painting houses” when he’s actually referring to whacking guys, in a film […]
Resident Evil 5 is a game where it was no surprise to me that the powers to be decided to re-release on the Nintendo Switch. Originally it received relatively positive reviews, but I never felt it really stamped its name down in the Resident Evil history. Please do not buy this game if you are […]
Seberg… Jean Seberg… yeah, me neither.
Inspired by real events about the French New Wave darling and Breathless star, Jean Seberg, who in the late 1960s was targeted by Hoover’s FBI, because of her political and romantic involvement with civil rights activist Hakim Jamal.
Free Guy is the film which looks, to me, like it’ll put the godawful Ghostbusters 3: Afterlife in the shade, as Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool 2 – my favourite film of 2018) plays bank teller Guy who inadvertently discovers that he’s actually an NPC – aka non-player character – inside a brutal, open world video game.
If you’re not sure what this means, then watch the trailer, and see that while a video game goes on, say as when you play one yourself, he is one of those incidental people standing around doing nothing who’ll take the brunt of whatever you throw at them, such as firing a rocket launcher in Grand Theft Auto.
Ghostbusters 3: Afterlife is the official third movie since the 2016 female reboot was a complete dumpster fire. The original crew said they’d never do a third one as time droned on, but then those who are still acting threw away all their principles and jumped in for that reboot, for the shameless cash-in, and it was embarrassing.
So, hopes are not high for this movie.
Of course, Harold Ramis is no longer with us, so that leaves Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson and Bill Murray. And they’re not even in this first trailer which is more like a teaser. Man, this looks like a stinker!

Check out the trailer below:
The Witcher is a new Netflix series based on the successful videogame franchise – including The Witcher III: Wild Hunt – which I personally haven’t played, but does look interesting, and from what I’ve seen of gameplay, it does look like they’re aiming for an accurate reflection of the world.
Henry Cavill eschews Superman in favour of the lead role as Geralt of Rivia, a solitary monster hunter, who struggles to find his place in a world where people often prove more wicked than beasts.
Intellivision Amico is coming on October 10th 2020, and today, Intellivision have released a cool new trailer for the Atari classic, Breakout!
I do wish this was a playable demo, but either way, check it out below as it makes me feel like the kind of futuristic thing I’d have loved in the ’80s as shown in the movies from the time…. and which has never left my head ever since 🙂
Dora and the Lost City of Gold is the Dora The Explorer movie, and the character is a 7-year-old Latina girl, and she’s been 7 ever since the show began in 2000, so who better to play her than someone TEN years her senior. Yes, at the time of filming the actress was 17 years old, and she is Isabela Moner from Transformers: The Last Knight (where she was Izabella) and Sicario 2: Soldado, she was Isabel. So, in this one, she is Izzy Dora. Nah, I jest.
Well, in this film her character is actually six, turning 16, and the lead now calls herself Isabella Merced, for no apparent reason. Who knew this could get so complicated?
Wonder Woman 1984 is the long-awaited (for some) sequel to 2017’s Wonder Woman, even though I preferred Justice League.
Gal Gadot is back, and somehow, Chris Pine is back. How? We don’t know yet, and I don’t really care. He’s also the same age he was in World War 2 in the first film, and even though he blew up. Wish I could manage such a feat!
New Blu-ray and DVD releases December 9th 2019 are as follows:
Elizabeth Is Missing brings Glenda Jackson back to TV for the first time in 27 years since 1992’s The Secret Life of Arnold Bax in a drama where, as Maud, her best friend, Elizabeth (Maggie Steed), with whom she regularly hangs out for shopping and gardening, has disappeared into the ether.
This leads to her going back 60 years in her mind to when she was a young woman and her memories are shown as flashbacks with the characters playing out in front of her. She’s played in 1949 by Jellyfish‘s Liv Hill, and remembers her times with her sister Sukey (Sophie Rundle), who also has a separate, engaging, story to play out.
DVDfever.co.uk and Sparky Pictures have teamed up to give you a chance to win a copy of QT8: The First Eight (aka 21 Years: Quentin Tarantino), which takes a look at the first eight films directed by Quentin Tarantino, a man who started off with a perfect trilogy of Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown.
There are three Blu-rays up for grabs in this competition!
