  • Marvel’s Avengers Release Date Shift Is a Smart Move

    Two months ago, Marvel announced the cast for the highly-anticipate Avengers: Doomsday in a, let’s call it “unique,” manner. On social media, the studio streamed video of cast chairs with a particular actor’s name on it. The camera would hold for twelve minutes or so, and then Alan Silvestri’s Avengers theme would play and the camera would pan to the right for the next reveal.
    Odd as it was, the gamble mostly worked, as we nerds spend all day talking about the names on the internet. Turns out, the methodical pace of the reveal had something else to tell us about Doomsday: that we were going to have to wait a bit. Yesterday, Hollywood Reporter announced that Marvel has pushed Doomsday‘s release date from May 1, 2026 to Dec. 18, 2026 and the release date to the sequel Avengers: Secret Wars from Dec. 17, 2027 to May 7, 2027.

    At this point, the release date change shouldn’t be much of a surprise. After all, the fourth Avengers movie was supposed to have released a few weeks ago, on May 1, 2025. Of course, that announcement came back in 2022 and it was for Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, staring Jonathan Majors as the time-traveling baddie Kang the Conquerer. Since then, Majors’s off-screen behavior got him booted from the universe and Kang was defeated, first by Ant-Man and a giant bug in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and then his variants were dealt with in the second season of Loki.
    Since then, the Avengers movie has been in creative overhaul, first by moving Kang Dynasty director Destin Daniel Cretton over to Spider-Man: Brand New Day and replacing him with Joe and Anthony Russo, who helmed Infinity War and Endgame. Further, Marvel brought back Robert Downey Jr., now as Fantastic Four arch-villain Doctor Doom, in a move that still doesn’t make sense, but hopefully will on screen.

    In short, Marvel’s had a lot of work to do and the pauses make sense, even if Doomsday is now currently in production. However, the decision to push back the release date is a good thing on creative level.
    It’s no secret that Marvel has been struggling since Endgame. It’s not just that superhero fatuige has set in and it’s not just that Endgame and it’s exit of many beloved characters gave fans a good jumping-off point. It’s that the company has spread itself too thin, drawing MCU chief Kevin Feige‘s attention away from quality and pushing out substandard entries that most people don’t want. For a while, audiences kept showing up for the good stuff, as demonstrated by the success of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and X-Men ’97, and for stuff that resonates with them, like Spider-Man: No Way Home and Deadpool & Wolverine.
    But too many bland entries, such as Thor: Love and Thunder and Secret Invasion have burned the general viewer too many times, and even solid releases like Loki‘s second season went underwatched.
    We are starting to see that turn around. Thunderbolts* proved a hit among critics and audiences, even if it didn’t do the box office numbers of movies from the MCU’s heyday. Likewise, Daredevil: Born Again didn’t dominate the discussion, but it generated decent buzz.
    Marvel knows all this. They’ve been quite open about the need to slow production. They already made the bold move of revamping Daredevil: Born Again midway through production, which resulted in a first season that sometimes showed the seams of being two radically different shows stitched together, but overall gave people what they want from Marvel: likable characters, good drama, and cool superhero action.
    In fact, Daredevil: Born Again should be the project that fans keep in mind when they consider the Doomsday news. There’s no question that Feige et al. made the right decision when bringing on new showrunner Dario Scardapane and directing duo Aaron Benson and Justin Moorehead, who changed the series from a superhero-adjacent courtroom drama to more of a character piece about Daredevil struggling with the ethics of vigilantism. But they needed to hit their new launch date and so retained a great deal of the original footage shot by the previous creative team. So as good as the final product was, the first season of Daredevil: Born Again didn’t always feel like a coherent vision and often shifted tones wildly.

    Scardapane, Benson, and Morehead have been promising that season two of the series will be more coherent, and that’s a good thing. But that’s also something they can do because they’re working on a television series. The Russo brothers can’t do the same thing with a movie, even a serialized one like the Avengers films. The story that hits the screen is going to be the story.

    And so, we wait a bit more and we’re glad to do it. We want Marvel to get this right, to tell a high adventure story that does right by the characters we love, that makes us feel like we did when we left the theater after Infinity War. In the meantime, we can keep looking at the back of casting chairs and speculating.

  • The Loki Cleaning Robot, Here to End Janitors

    To the list of jobs that will not exist in the future, we must add Janitor. Loki Robotics, a San-Francisco-based startup, is developing an autonomous cleaning robot. At first blush, it doesn't look like much: A single robot arm and two storage bins.Then you see what it can do in the bathroom:And in the kitchen:It's not clear how much of what the 'bot is doing in the videos is purely autonomous versus being teleoperated, as it has the capacity for both. But the company's goal is full-autonomous. At present they're using teleoperation to train the 'bot when it encounters tasks it can't yet handle autonomously.As with Somatic, the other cleaning robot we looked at, Loki Robotics plans to roll the robots out with a monthly lease model. And while their target market will be offices, with the 'bot to replace cleaning staff, the company's marketing copy is written as if addressing a different audience:"We spend over a year of our lives doing chores - time that could be spent raising kids, calling grandparents, making music, building things. We believe tasks like scrubbing toilets don't belong on a human to-do list."In other words, don't worry about the unemployed janitorial staff: Call your Nana and sign up for piano lessons!

    The Loki Cleaning Robot, Here to End Janitors
    To the list of jobs that will not exist in the future, we must add Janitor. Loki Robotics, a San-Francisco-based startup, is developing an autonomous cleaning robot (also called Loki). At first blush, it doesn't look like much: A single robot arm and two storage bins.Then you see what it can do in the bathroom:And in the kitchen:It's not clear how much of what the 'bot is doing in the videos is purely autonomous versus being teleoperated, as it has the capacity for both. But the company's goal is full-autonomous. At present they're using teleoperation to train the 'bot when it encounters tasks it can't yet handle autonomously.As with Somatic, the other cleaning robot we looked at, Loki Robotics plans to roll the robots out with a monthly lease model. And while their target market will be offices, with the 'bot to replace cleaning staff, the company's marketing copy is written as if addressing a different audience:"We spend over a year of our lives doing chores - time that could be spent raising kids, calling grandparents, making music, building things. We believe tasks like scrubbing toilets don't belong on a human to-do list."In other words, don't worry about the unemployed janitorial staff: Call your Nana and sign up for piano lessons!

  • How to Stream Disney+ in 4K If You Aren't Already

    With over a hundred years of history and a stacked portfolio of films and TV shows, it’s no surprise that Disney has its own horse in the competitive streaming service race. Since the inception of Disney+ in 2019, the streaming giant has grown its portfolio beyond its classic fairy tale roots and now boasts a catalogue of box office-busting films and bingeable series alike. From Star Wars to Marvel, you might be wondering: How can I stream Disney+ in 4K? Look no further, as our guide will run you through everything you’ll need, from subscription types to hardware. How to Stream Disney+ in 4KUnlike most streaming services on the market, Disney+ doesn’t require you to have a premium account to access 4K content. That means no matter what kind of subscription you’ve chosen, whether it be a bundle or basic plan, you’ll have access to 4K streaming on Disney+.

  • AC: Valhalla, do I need the DLC? Any general tips?

    AC Odysseys real ending was in the DLC. Is Valhalla the same way or can I just play the base game?

    I put in over 200 hours in Odyssey before I had to force myself to just do story missions. I'm trying to keep that in mind for Valhalla. Will I handicap mysel by not collecting all the treasure and mysteries etc?

    How about mini games? Already the rhyming one seems important.

    Is Mirage something I will need to play?

    Thanks!

    200 hours wtf.... i guess multiply that by 4 for Valhalla. The definite ending is part of a free DLC called "The Last Chapter" for the game.

    I'd recommend Ireland and Paris DLCs if you enjoy the main gameplay and characters but you can ask yourself this question in 50 hours.

    Have fun. Don't linger too much in Norway, don't burn yourself on completion, just push through at your own pace and do what you feel like doing.

    No random drop in this game, everything is unique so go explore.

    I bought all the DLC for Valhalla but by the time I finished the base game + free epilogue DLC I was too burnt out to even look at the paid DLC. You should probably just wait until you finish the base game first lol.

    God no.

    I forced myself through the first DLC and it was super mediocre. Didn't even bother with the rest of the season pass stuff even though I owned them.

    For reference I platinum'd Odyssey and finished and really enjoyed all of its DLCs. Valhalla just gets very boring after the first 20 or so hours.

    If Odyssey took you 200 hours, good luck with Valhalla.

    I finished the first two DLCs, but couldn't bring myself to do the big Ragnarok expansion. There is just too much game.

    You don't NEED the DLCs but they are pretty fun and add some decent variety to the adventure, story wise they are pretty much just side content.

    The Ragnarok DLC was a bit of a miss for me personally but might be fun if you really like the mythical stuff.

    I think you can wait until you are further into the game to decide if you want more, the game is already very long.

    Mirage doesn't really add anything to Valhalla's story, I found it to be worse than Valhalla and I'm already not a huge fan of it, worst of the RPG games.

    I liked the Ireland and France DLC packs.

    The free ending DLC was the most unsatisfying shit I have ever played, both in terms of the "gameplay" addition and the story content. It honestly would have been better to just leave it open ended.

    This is exactly what happened to me. Paid for the season pass and never touched any of the content from it. The base game and free epilogue DLC wraps up the story nicely. Thank god I didn't pay for the additional DLC centered around the mythic stuff, I'd be even more annoyed with myself in that case.

    The Ireland and Paris DLCs are good. But I didn't care for the Ragnarok DLC all that much. You don't need the DLCs right away though. You can get them at the end of the main story if you want and see if you still want more game.

    I wanted to spend as much time as I could in the world though. Female Eivor is my fav mc they have done of the AC games I've played.

    So I just arrived in England. So the game isn't even really set in Norway? That's kind of disappointing.

    Having fun with it though. I kind of miss Odyssey. Loved the setting, everything looked amazing! And Black Flag. I sort of need to play the Enzio stuff as well. And Syndicate?

    In England. Game is boring as hell. Was Origin and Odyssey like this and I just don't remember? I remember like both of them. Loved Odyssey. Valhalla has no interesting characters. I don't even know what the plot is aside from "Upgrade the town and make friends with other leaders". When do I go Assassin Creeding? I mean yeah I can but so far I was just handed a stealth blade for next to no reason and told to go have fun. So far the actual Assassin stuff seems regulated to a side quest AFTER I build his house in the town.

    Again, am I misremembering the previous 2 games and actually becoming an Assassin? So far Im just a Viking who stealths good.

    Soonish. Valhalla's start is extremely slow and the plot felt half baked. It's the worst of the RPG AC games.

    No, I would say not. Compared to Valhalla, Origins was a more focused game with a better idea of what it wanted to achieve with its setting, characters and game mechanics. Compared to Valhalla, Odyssey was a more varied and interesting rollercoaster with a ton of mechanical depth and flexibility.

    I liked Valhalla fine but I spaced that thing over the period of months, and that seemed to be the right call. Don't try to cram it, thats my advice.

    I managed to get through AC Valhalla, but I couldn't imagine going back for the DLC. The main campaign was longer than it had any right to be.

    I forgot I played the Ireland and Paris DLC until it was mentioned now. Then you've got Ragnarok expansion after that. I think I'm at 300hrs for Valhalla. Mirage being a 50 hr game to 100% was a nice change of pace.

    AC: Valhalla, do I need the DLC? Any general tips?
    Silverhand Member Oct 26, 2023 3,035 AC Odysseys real ending was in the DLC. Is Valhalla the same way or can I just play the base game? I put in over 200 hours in Odyssey before I had to force myself to just do story missions. I'm trying to keep that in mind for Valhalla. Will I handicap mysel by not collecting all the treasure and mysteries etc? How about mini games? Already the rhyming one seems important. Is Mirage something I will need to play? Thanks!  StrangerDanger Member Jul 18, 2018 6,694 200 hours wtf.... i guess multiply that by 4 for Valhalla. The definite ending is part of a free DLC called "The Last Chapter" for the game.   UnluckyKate Member Oct 25, 2017 11,906 I'd recommend Ireland and Paris DLCs if you enjoy the main gameplay and characters but you can ask yourself this question in 50 hours. Have fun. Don't linger too much in Norway, don't burn yourself on completion, just push through at your own pace and do what you feel like doing. No random drop in this game, everything is unique so go explore.  nihilence nøthing but silence Moderator Oct 25, 2017 18,947 From 'quake area to big OH. Mirage didn't seem to add anything memorable.   Arsene no Kiseki Member Oct 25, 2017 5,619 Canada I bought all the DLC for Valhalla but by the time I finished the base game + free epilogue DLC I was too burnt out to even look at the paid DLC. You should probably just wait until you finish the base game first lol.   Son of Sparda "This guy are sick" says The Wise Ones Member Oct 25, 2017 17,285 do I need the DLC? Click to expand... Click to shrink... God no. I forced myself through the first DLC and it was super mediocre. Didn't even bother with the rest of the season pass stuff even though I owned them. For reference I platinum'd Odyssey and finished and really enjoyed all of its DLCs. Valhalla just gets very boring after the first 20 or so hours.  dancingphlower Member Oct 27, 2017 13,201 I found Mirage to be the better game tbh   coldzone24 Member Oct 27, 2017 920 Cleveland, OH If Odyssey took you 200 hours, good luck with Valhalla. I finished the first two DLCs, but couldn't bring myself to do the big Ragnarok expansion. There is just too much game.  Xalbur Member Mar 30, 2019 716 You don't NEED the DLCs but they are pretty fun and add some decent variety to the adventure, story wise they are pretty much just side content. The Ragnarok DLC was a bit of a miss for me personally but might be fun if you really like the mythical stuff. I think you can wait until you are further into the game to decide if you want more, the game is already very long. Mirage doesn't really add anything to Valhalla's story, I found it to be worse than Valhalla and I'm already not a huge fan of it, worst of the RPG games.  carlsojo Shinra Employee Member Oct 28, 2017 37,544 San Francisco Ireland was pretty fun and self-contained.   Hasney One Winged Slayer The Fallen Oct 25, 2017 23,201 I liked the Ireland and France DLC packs. The free ending DLC was the most unsatisfying shit I have ever played, both in terms of the "gameplay" addition and the story content.

But I didn't care for the Ragnarok DLC all that much. You don't need the DLCs right away though. You can get them at the end of the main story if you want and see if you still want more game. I wanted to spend as much time as I could in the world though. Female Eivor is my fav mc they have done of the AC games I've played.  OP OP Silverhand Member Oct 26, 2023 3,035 Ive gotten to the town and talked to the Jarl and reunited with my "brother". I have a weird feeling due to the guy/girl thing and stuff like having a Raven and Odin Sight, I am either Odin or possibly Loki.  OP OP Silverhand Member Oct 26, 2023 3,035 So I just arrived in England. So the game isn't even really set in Norway? That's kind of disappointing. Having fun with it though. I kind of miss Odyssey. Loved the setting, everything looked amazing! And Black Flag.
