While Diablo Immortal sadly features some of the worst aspects of modern mobile gaming, it’s still a deep and impressive RPG in its own right. That also means that Diablo Immortal players will need to optimize their character’s build in order to get the most out of them.
Since Diablo Immortal allows for quite a bit of experimentation (including the ability to change your character’s class), you actually have quite a bit of freedom when it comes to figuring out what works and what doesn’t. Of course, it never hurts to have a little more information about what your class’ late-game build might look like.
Before we dive into that, though, here are a few points to keep in mind:

Under the partnership Gaumont will produce these series in association with Paramount’s international studio, Vis.
The shows will be part of Paramount Plus’s stated plans to green light 50 new non-u.S. scripted originals in 2022, as it expands its reach from Latin America, Australia, Canada and the Nordics –– where the service has already launched –– to the U.K., South Korea, France, Germany, Switzerland and Italy where it will launch this year.
Vis will gain access to Gaumont’s vast network of top talent and creatives in key Paramount Plus markets, including Latin America and Europe, the two companies said in a joint statement.

King Conan has been ‘in the works’ for a while according to a lot of people, but there’s a feeling that it should have been out long before now, especially since the endings of both movies, the Barbarian, and the Destroyer, ended with the idea that Conan had gone on to seek other adventures and in time had created his own place in the world. The Cimmerian, the last of his people as the story went in the first movie, isn’t the type of guy that would back down from any fight, but it remains to be seen what will

Marvel’s What If…? comic was always good for a nice, fun one-off story, but just because they were self-contained takes on alternate realities doesn’t mean they never mattered to Marvel Comics’ main continuity. An issue about the Avengers forming in the 1950s created the concept of the superhero team Agents of Atlas. Situations like the Spider-Man Clone Saga and Jane Foster as Thor first originated in that comic series. Even Skaar, Son of Hulk showed up in a What If…? story a week or so before appearing in regular continuity.
The animated What If…? show on Disney+ seemed like it was just a neat side project that meant nothing in the long run, but now that doesn’t seem to be the case. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness appears to follow up on What If…? more than we had initially realized. We already knew that the...

Exclusive: The always busy Mark Wahlberg looks to have found his next feature film as Deadline is hearing the A-lister is set to star in the drama Stu, with Rosalind Ross making her directing debut and also penned the script.
Wahlberg will produce along with his producing partner and manager Stephen Levinson along with Jordan Foss. Miky Lee and Colleen Camp will exec produce.
Not much is known about the plot other then it is a faith-based film loosely based on a true story and is something very close to Wahlberg’s heart and something he had been developing for a number of years. As someone whose schedule is usually filled years out, when an opening occurred at the top of the year, Wahlberg saw this as the perfect opportunity to finally move forward with the film.

It took about five years for the director Shengwei Zhou to make his stunning feature length stop-motion movie “She”, that shows the class and gender struggle in a world made of clothing garments. It takes a proper concentration to catch up with a story that is deeply critical of the neo-liberal thinking.
The very metaphor of a female shoe trying to break out from its household prison hidden behind thick layers of buttoned up male shirts and jackets, is both witty and bold, coming from a director deeply rooted in a male-dominated society that as much as it pretends to be communist, bares the weight of its cheap, export industry with people slaving in factories or sweatshops for peanuts. Everything we touch nowadays, from the clothing items to souvenirs allegedly crafted in the country they are sold, is made in China and its price is someone’s sweat and tears.

HBO has unveiled its a new, rather weighty trailer for “I Know This Much Is True,” its upcoming limited series starring Mark Ruffalo as identical twins.
An adaptation of Wally Lamb’s 1998 novel of the same name, the drama follows twin brothers Dominick and Thomas Birdsey (Ruffalo plays both) — the former suffers from Ptsd, while the latter is a paranoid schizophrenic. HBO’s limited series bills itself as a story of betrayal, sacrifice, and forgiveness in 20th-century America, and its new trailer indicates the six-episode set will be faithful to the frequently heartbreaking source material.

All good things must come to an end. After a whirlwind debut and quickly amassing a huge following of fans, DreamWorks She-Ra and the Princesses of Power will soon be ending with its fifth and final season. With the explosive ending of season 4 that near literally opened up the universe of She-Ra (possibly to Eternia?) we would have loved to see the show run longer but more than likely it was always planned to end with this fifth season.
Here’s everything you need to know about She-Ra season 5 on Netflix!

In any other time and in any other place, She Dies Tomorrow would be a lucid and unsettling film. Screened in the height of a global pandemic, it is difficult to watch without immediately emphasizing the uncertainty, as well as the certainty, that radiates from and beyond the frame. The characters know they’re going to die, and once they know that, it feels inevitable. Amy Seimetz’s haunting and puzzling sophomore feature beings with a verbally violent break-up and quickly morphs into a film about contagion and paranoia. It also briefly veers into absurd comedy when things come to a head at a birthday party where everyone wishes after the fact they could have engaged in social distancing.

There are a lot of new films coming to the McU over the next few years and that means a whole new lineup of evildoers will ultimately make the jump from the comics to the big screen. Marvel will undoubtedly be looking to tap some of the industry’s most talented individuals to bring their new villains to life and one name the studio is reportedly interested in is Sonic the Hedgehog star Jim Carrey.
Carrey has been on a bit of a comeback streak lately and fans couldn’t be happier about it. His Showtime series Kidding continues to get decent reviews and his performance in Sonic the Hedgehog was very reminiscent of his days in Ace Ventura and The Mask. That part must have helped him get back in the mindset of the green-faced antihero as well, as he’ll be reprising his role from the 1994 film for the upcoming Space Jam 2.

She-Hulk is already highly anticipated by Marvel fans for finally bringing Bruce Banner’s similarly green, mean cousin into the McU. However, it could also serve up a classic comic book villain who we’ve been waiting to see in the franchise for ages, as well. They won’t play a major role, we’re told, but their cameo will lead to a bigger presence in the future.

After Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe concluded in 2019, fans were left with many questions about where the franchise would go next. After all, the ongoing battle for the Infinity Stones has likely come to an end, and with several of the original Avengers having had their stories concluded, you’d be forgiven for not being able to map out exactly where Marvel is going to take things from here.
One particular journey that’ll be interesting to watch unfold though is that of our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. After the conclusion of Far From Home, Peter Parker’s secret identity was revealed to the world and the hero’s been framed for some pretty terrible crimes that he didn’t commit. How this will all be resolved remains to be seen, but already there’ve been whispers that Parker won’t be the only Spidey running around the McU for too much longer,...

Paramount is powering up those Mighty Morphin heroes once again for another reboot, but this new Power Rangers movie is set to be an even bolder reinvention than the last one. One of the best things about Lionsgate’s 2017 film was the increased diversity of the teen super-squad, with it featuring cinema’s first autistic (Blue) and Lgbtq (Yellow) costumed heroes.

Mark Ruffalo has confirmed that there have been talks about his Bruce Banner/Hulk showing up in Disney+’s upcoming She-Hulk show.
The actor dropped the info during a panel at C2E2 over the weekend, where he was on hand to chat about all things Marvel with host Clare Kramer, who you may remember as the evil, mind-warping god Glory from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, among other things.
LaughingPlace.com was present as Ruffalo sat down to answer some pressing questions, and he mulled how he was feeling about where we left Bruce in the closing scenes of Avengers: Endgame. After admitting he’d still like Hulk and Thanos to have a rematch, the Dark Waters star was inevitably asked if we could see Hulk – Smart or Smash-flavored tbc! – pop up in Marvel and Disney+’s She-Hulk, which is now rumored to start filming in November.

The death of Iron Man in last year’s Avengers: Endgame was a big moment for the McU that left Marvel fans misty-eyed around the world, so it’s no surprise to hear that the loss of Tony Stark also came as a blow to Hulk actor Mark Ruffalo.
During a recent panel at C2E2 in Chicago, Ruffalo was asked who he thought delivered the best superhero performance, and after a bit of joking around with moderator Clare Kramer, the McU regular ultimately settled on his co-star Robert Downey Jr., saying:
“Robert. Robert’s my hero. His Iron Man is like definitive and he started all this. I always marvel at him when I’m working with him, so… I mean, he’s done it the longest and done it with the most class and grace and generosity so yeah, I’d say Robert and when he died, that broke me.

The romance between Hulk and Black Widow in Avengers: Age of Ultron is hardly the most popular plot thread among McU viewers, and by the time the pair reunited in Avengers: Infinity War, it seems the powers that be at Marvel Studios had decided that the two of them should remain strictly friends.
Nonetheless, not only is Mark Ruffalo a fan of the unexpected direction taken by his character in Age of Ultron, but he wishes that Marvel had done more with Bruce Banner and Natasha Romanoff’s relationship.
The Hulk actor was recently in attendance at C2E2 in Chicago, where he was reportedly asked by a young fan to name one thing he’d change about the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Ruffalo’s initial response was to ask the boy what his answer would be, to which the fan replied that he’d like to undo Iron Man’s death in Avengers: Endgame.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s fourth Phase will get going in May when Black Widow is finally given her own solo movie. Meanwhile, Disney is busy putting together a ton of new McU shows for their streaming service, Disney Plus, which will feature the likes of Wanda, Bucky, Vision, the Falcon and more. However, the continued inclusion of one of the franchise’s most beloved heroes is still uncertain.
A few weeks ago, when asked whether or not the Hulk would appear again in the McU, Mark Ruffalo said that he wasn’t sure. Speaking on The Graham Norton Show, the actor was questioned about a possible return and said, “I don’t know.” He then followed that up by stating: “it is supposed to be over and that [Endgame] was supposed to be the end.” Now, however, it seems he’s changed his tune and may have actually teased the character’s next appearance.

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, the first Marvel Studios TV series to hit Disney Plus, is due to pull many strands together from past McU movies. Baron Zemo and Sharon Carter, both last seen in Captain America: Civil War, for example, will return in the show. Now, the latest set pics are suggesting there’s a chance that a character long since seen in the McU could be about to make a surprise comeback.
As pointed out by Twitter user @MsLizzieHill, signs for a company called Samson Development have been spotted in various Falcon photos over the past few months. The name will be familiar to Marvel fans as it puts us in mind of Doc Samson, Bruce Banner’s frequent ally from the comics. Leonard Samson was previously adapted, sans his superpowers, in The Incredible Hulk, but is he on his way back?
Well, it’s possible. As in the comics though,...

Despite ending Marvel Studios’ panel at last year’s San Diego Comic-Con with a bang by announcing that two-time Academy Award winner Mahershala Ali had been cast as the lead in the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s reboot of Blade, there’s been virtually no movement on the project since. No director or writers have been officially confirmed, and there’s not even a hint of a release date yet, although the signs point to the Daywalker returning at some point during Phase Five.
Obviously, there’ll be a lot going on behind the scenes, with Kevin Feige admitting that Ali himself was the driving force behind making it happen, but everything we’ve heard about Blade so far is only speculation. The most likely scenario is that it starts shooting at some stage next year, with Marvel having their hands full throughout 2020 with no less than ten movies and Disney...

Regarded by Roger Ebert as having “a more positive influence on the climate for film in America than any other single person over the last three decades,” film critic Pauline Kael reigned, from the late 60s to the early 90s, as one of the most well-known, clever, and controversial figures in the industry. Having been one of the few female critics in a sea of men, unapologetic about her (often scathing) opinions, and underpaid for the influential work she did, Kael fought endlessly to preserve her title.
Pauline Kael, the New Yorker film critic for 25 years until the early 1990s, was a lightning rod of American culture.

Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe will be kickstarted this coming May with the highly-anticipated Black Widow standalone movie. Meanwhile, Disney is prepping a slew of upcoming productions for Disney Plus highlighting various characters. However, the continued inclusion of one of the most beloved McU heroes is currently undetermined.
During a recent talk show appearance, when queried about whether or not the Hulk would appear in future films, actor Mark Ruffalo stated that he wasn’t sure. Speaking on The Graham Norton Show, the actor was asked about a possible return and when it would happen and simply said, “I don’t know.” He then followed that up by saying: “it is supposed to be over and that [Endgame] was supposed to be the end.”
This is certainly disappointing to hear, as all around us there’s been news of further developments for so many other characters. Loki, the Scarlet Witch,...

Marvel fans were left stunned yesterday when the news arrived that Sam Raimi was in talks to helm Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Not only is he one of the best horror directors around, but Raimi also gave us the beloved original Spider-Man trilogy. Given that, and the telltale “multiverse” in the movie’s title, many are now wondering if we could actually see a crossover between his Spidey films and the McU in Doctor Strange 2.
Reaching out to our sources to ask about this and if it could happen, we’ve been told that Raimi does indeed hope to bring Tobey Maguire back for a cameo to reprise his version of Peter Parker. Like the title suggests, Benedict Cumberbatch’s Stephen Strange will be traveling through the Marvel multiverse in the sequel, so there’s a possibility that he may come across Maguire’s wall-crawler.

“Kajillionaire,” the third feature by the artist Miranda July, is about a family of grifters who deliberately lives on the margins in Los Angeles. The father, Robert (Richard Jenkins), is full of conspiracy theories and other nonsense; the mother, Theresa (Debra Winger), is mostly silent as she goes along with him; and their adult daughter, Old Dolio (Evan Rachel Wood), is the product of their abuse — half imprisoned snail, half open wound.
They live next to a bubble factory, and execute tiny heists that barely make them any money, but allow them to exist. It’s a nuclear family as cult, times four billion.
Their insular existence is punctured when they meet the vivacious Melanie, played by Gina Rodriguez, who wants in on the family’s scams — at least at first. Melanie has troubles of her own, certainly, but she has standard human emotions and wants, which Old Dolio’s parents have thwarted in her.

Though she side-stepped endorsing any particular candidate, Hillary Clinton pleaded for Democratic voters to be practical with their primary vote in the coming election this year. That’s because, she argued, nothing could be worse than a second term for President Donald Trump.
“I want people to take their vote really, really seriously because lord knows what will happen if we don’t retire the current incumbent and his henchmen, as Nancy Pelosi so well described it,” Clinton said on Friday during the Television Critics Association. Clinton was on hand Friday to talk about her documentary “Hillary” on Hulu. You can watch the trailer for that here.
“For the democratic voters, try to vote for the person you think is most likely to win. At the end of the day that is what will matter,” she continued. “And not just the popular vote, but the electoral college.” Clinton lost the...

It was dark times for fans when Netflix cancelled their Marvel shows, bringing to a close The Defenders corner of the McU. This being the ever-expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe we’re talking about, though, folks have always held out hope that we’d see the likes of Daredevil, Jessica Jones and the Punisher again on our screens. The only thing was that Marvel apparently had to wait a couple of years before they got the rights back.
Or so, we thought that was the case. Apparently, though, several Defenders-related projects are currently in the works, and while we’ve already reported on a few of them, we’ve now heard about one more. If you’ll recall, we told you a few weeks back that Marvel wanted to have Frank Castle appear in Moon Knight, and that still seems to be the case. However, we’re now hearing that the...

Ever since Carol Danvers made her McU debut back in March with Captain Marvel, fans have been asking if she’ll wind up coming out as one of the franchise’s Lgbt superheroes. After all, the studio didn’t give her a love interest in the film, so at this point, it’s a bit unclear what her sexual preference is. That being said, it’s been strongly suggested that she is indeed gay.
In fact, producer Victoria Alonso even teased it during her Reddit Ama, saying that “Carol could eventually have a love story with someone of the same sex,” before adding that she thinks “it would be something incredible on the part of the McU.” Not a firm confirmation then, but it doesn’t take much to see where the studio’s heading with the character.

Ever since Netflix coincidentally canceled all of their Marvel-related shows at around the same time the finishing touches were being put on Disney’s acquisition of Fox, speculation has run rampant about what the future holds for Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist and the Punisher.
While it seems as though the two members of Heroes For Hire will be getting rebooted with new actors playing Luke Cage and Danny Rand, the remaining three characters are reportedly being developed for the McU with the original actors in mind. Jon Bernthal has been talking about the Punisher in virtually every interview he does these days, while rumors indicate that Charlie Cox is all-but-guaranteed to return as Matt Murdock, perhaps even as Peter Parker’s lawyer in the third Spider-Man outing.

Avengers: Endgame has been praised by all ever since it hit theaters back in April. Bringing the 23-film Infinity Saga to a satisfying end as well as providing cathartic send-offs for most of the main heroes, it was a fantastic movie and pretty much everything that the fans could’ve hoped for. There are, however, a few problems with it and one of the most notable was how the filmmakers handled the Incredible Hulk.
Yes, Bruce Banner’s transformation into his “Professor Hulk” persona left many fans feeling a bit confused. After all, it didn’t really fit with the overall arc for the character that we’d seen up until that point. But, the Russo brothers have stood by their decisions and have repeatedly stated how important Banner and Hulk were to what went down in Endgame – including the second snap.

Nominees for the 22nd annual Costume Designer Guild Awards included frontrunning period pieces “Dolemite Is My Name,” “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,” and “Rocketman.” They were joined by “Downton Abbey” and “Jojo Rabbit.” This definitely bodes well for Ruth Carter (“Dolemite”) in her bid for a second consecutive Oscar following “Black Panther.”
However, surprise no shows were “Joker,” “The Irishman,” “Little Women,” and “Judy.” And, Deborah Cook, who became the first costume designer from animation to get nominated by the Cdga for her breakthrough work on “Kubo and the Two Strings,” was denied this time around for her great Victorian-era work on Laika’s stop-motion Oscar contender, “Missing Link.”
Contemporary nominees, meanwhile, included “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood,” “Hustlers,” “Knives Out,” “The Laundromat,” and “Queen & Slim.” But “Bombshell” didn’t make the cut.
