Disney and Marvel Studios have released the official synopsis for the Eternals.

Marvel Studios’ “The Eternals” features an exciting new team of Super Heroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, ancient aliens who have been living on Earth in secret for thousands of years. Following the events of “Avengers: Endgame”, an unexpected tragedy forces them out of the shadows to reunite against mankind’s most ancient enemy, The Deviants.

The outstanding ensemble cast includes Richard Madden as the all-powerful Ikaris, Gemma Chan as humankind-loving Sersi, Kumail Nanjiani as cosmic-powered Kingo, Lauren Ridloff as the super-fast Makkari, Brian Tyree Henry as the intelligent inventor Phastos, Salma Hayek as the wise and spiritual leader Ajak, Lia McHugh as the eternally young, old-soul Sprite, Don Lee as the powerful Gilgamesh, Barry Keoghan as aloof loner Druig, and Angelina Jolie as the fierce warrior Then. Kit Harington was cast as Dane Whitman. Directed by Chloé Zhao, who helmed the critically acclaimed Sundance film”The Rider,” and produced by Kevin Feige, “The Eternals” opens in U.S. theaters on November 6, 2020.

Morbius Trailer

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eQBl3_6FKA

It doesn't look bad, but I'm not hyped for it.
some of the video sites are saying that "Spider-Man is in it..." I need to watch again, but I didn't see a spiderman suit in the trailer.

IU must've missed it, but apparently there is a Spider-man poster at the end (the Raimi version) and Michael Keaton is at the end as well (I don't think he's the same character from Homecoming), but Sony is really trying to push even the smallest SM connections wherever they can.

Is NWR finally gonna birth this forum update or should someone induce labor on one of the mods to just make it happen already?
It's 2020, the software is like a decade old now.

I'm dead serious....

word has it that Curry been courting Giannis, the same way Draymond was courting Durant.
rumor is that Giannis is kinda fed up with his team, and if they don't make it to the promise land this year, he may opt out of his last year and join the Golden Squad.

I don't have the math on numbers, but....
We gonna ditch D-Lo and leverage that Top3-4 pick we got, and Giannis may take a haircut, and the Warriors will eat the Luxury Tax, and Chase Center ticket prices will skyrocket about 350% above what they are today and everything will be right again.

Just a quick question from all the Star Wars fans on here.

Is this a good video for someone that is not into SW to get caught up so that they can enjoy the newest Star Wars movie for what it is?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dY0XbdxJpzA

I haven't watched it yet, but I think it came out either just before or after the previous SW movie.
If this movie is not the one.... then please provide a better one so that I may get an abbreviated summary of Star Wars up till as recent as possible.

Thanks

Steph Curry back to shooting practice with his hand out the brace. I heard reports that speculated a February return is likely for the not so baby faced assassin.
https://warriorswire.usatoday.com/2020/01/08/report-injured-steph-curry-goes-through-shooting-workout-brace-free/

but the real reason I wanted to post this story, other than the obvious fact that Curry could be playing again by my birthday, is for the story that followed it, and that shows Curry is also already courting Giannis should the opportunity come for him to join the Warrior squad next season!!!

Looks like Derrickson is out as Director of DS2: MoM and is being given the consolation prize of Exec Producer.

They cited mutual decision due to "creative differences" but Derrickson was already on record complaining on release dates numerous times now, more or less stating that set release dates stifle creativity or something like that.
Feige stated production date was still set and no expected delays. I'm assuming he has a replacement in mind already as pre-production should already be in progress.... I think shooting starts in March or May 2020

that was a pretty nasty looking dislocation..... I wouldn't have thought that surgery would be necessary if they taped it up and sent him back in the game though.

Warriors fan here.... just went to a game on Sunday at the new stadium. We had NO contributors playing. It was like a Pre-Season exhibition with the practice squad... only it's the regular season with our actual "available" roster and we have no chance at the playoffs, or even much less, a decent win/loss ratio.

It's frustrating to watch, but I endure, hoping to catch a glimpse of the hopeful turds being polished into jewels of some value, while we patiently wait for the next season to start.

The New Mutants Trailer

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_vJhUAOFpI

If it's truly the horror movie it was originally shot to be, as advertised in this trailer, then I'm down.
I don't remember any of the Fox Exec ordered reshoots actually happening, so fingers crossed this is exactly what it looks like.

Overlord - not exactly what I was expecting

I was looking forward to this one based on the previews, painting it as kinda DOOM in WWII, which ultimately is kinda sorta was, but then again, not really. It was a pretty intense WWII movie, starting off with troops getting deployed in the heat of the battle, with a mission to infiltrate enemy lines and take out air-support communications so more troops could get flown in for backup.

Well obviously **** hits the fan immediately, as it's WWII, but the DOOM portion comes much later.
Did I mention that Fitz, from FitzSimmons (AoS) was in this?
I was actually really into it up until the very end when people as usual do stupid stuff when they should already know better.
Mutated man was beating up the US Soldier, and the black guy, who has already demonstrated that you have to destroy the head to kill these bastards, decided to unload his rifle in the guys midsection, never once even aiming to shoot him in the head. White US soldier then comes to save Black US Soldier, sneaks up from behind and shoves a pole thru his mid section.... smfh. Why didn't you just shove it through the back of his head!!!? Oh, because that would've prematurely killed the end move fight. That was the moments that pulled me out of this one, but thankfully it was practically at the end of the movie already.
It was still a fun one up until that moment of stupidity. Properly setup for a sequel of some kind as well. We'll see, I don't remember if this did well enough at the box office for a follow up, but I might give it a watch at some point. I enjoyed this one enough to do that.

that dislocation. NSFWeaklings

WHY DID I CLICK THAT LINK?!!! 

Wow...just...wow. I'm amazed he was even walking with his finger jutted out of his hand at a 90 degree angle.

I've done the exact same thing back in HS. pointer finger on the rim while blocking a shot into the next court over..... it didn't even hurt. More of a panic'd state over the shock of why my finger was bent at a 90degree angle at the middle knuckle towards my thumb.
I quickly out of sheer panic popped it back into place and continued playing the game until the swelling and pulsing ache started setting in.

Embiid came right back in the game and I'm sure he played the rest of it. He'll feel the pain long after all the adrenaline and pain killers wear off. LOL
