The new video game based on The Walking Dead TV show, titled The Walking Dead: Destinies, has been receiving negative reviews from fans, with complaints about clunky gameplay, broken mechanics, and poor graphics. The boss fight between Rick and Shane is particularly criticized for its silliness and technical issues. The game, published by Game Mill, is said to be on par with their previous low-quality release, Skull Island: Rise of Kong. Despite the potential hard work of the developers, the lack of support and resources from Game Mill is evident. Overall, it is advised not to purchase this new Walking Dead game.
A feature-length film called "Barbenheimer" is in the works, inspired by the dual premiere weekend of Greta Gerwig's Barbie and Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer. The movie, directed by Charles Band, will focus on Dr. Bambi J. Barbenheimer, a scientist doll who builds a nuclear bomb to destroy the real world due to humans' mistreatment of dolls. The film aims to add levity to the box office and combine Barbie's vibe with the darkness of Oppenheimer for dark humor. The project has not yet begun filming, but it has a script with musical numbers and a budget of just below $1 million.
Filmmaker Matt Johnson discusses his latest project, "BlackBerry," a low-budget workplace comedy biopic about the rise and fall of the mobile phone company. Johnson and his longtime writing and producing partner, Matthew Miller, adapted the script from the book "Losing the Signal: The Untold Story Behind the Extraordinary Rise and Spectacular Fall of BlackBerry." The film takes a wry approach to the story, focusing on the evolving dynamic between the company's founders and the cutthroat demands of a corporate ecosystem. Despite the low budget, the film was able to attract well-known actors, including Jay Baruchel and Glenn Howerton.
