It’s no secret that Mark Hamill and Sir Patrick Stewart are good friends, but you wouldn’t guess that from this hilarious new Uber Eats commercial! The Star Wars and Star Trek legends finally come face-to-face on screen, and while social distancing is in place, the animosity here is seriously intense! 

They both have very similar sandwich orders…but very different ways of saying “tomato!” 

As Hamill says, “Stewart, so it’s come to this,” to which the Picard star responds, “Careful Hamill, daddy’s not here to save you” (as Darth Vader references go, there’s no denying that’s a good one). 

A furious Hamill retorts with, “Oh, I am my daddy!” leaving both of the actors equally confused. 

This commercial comes shortly before tickets for The Empire Strikes Back‘s re-release go on sale, though the movie has been playing in theaters ever since they re-opened, so it’s hard to say how much interest there will be in that (especially with the COVID-19 pandemic clearly not going anywhere).

Check out this hilarious Uber Eats commercial below, and let us know in the comments section which of these legendary actors you would root for if they were to really square off like this…

During the 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards, Marvel Studios surprised the world with the debut trailer for their highly anticipated Disney+ series WandaVision, which will star Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany in the lead roles as the Scarlet Witch and Vision, respectively.

While plot details remain under wraps, the trailer does promise something unlike anything we’ve ever seen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the fan-favorite heroes traverse a variety of different classic genres before realizing that everything seems just a bit off… 

There’s no release official release date just yet, but it looks like it will indeed arrive before the end of the year as the press release teases a late 2020 premiere. 

 
 

 

Welcome to WandaVision. Coming soon to Disney+. Marvel Studios’ captivating new series “WandaVision” stars Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany, and marks the first series from Marvel Studios streaming exclusively on Disney+. The series is a blend of classic television and the Marvel Cinematic Universe in which Wanda Maximoff and Vision—two super-powered beings living idealized suburban lives—begin to suspect that everything is not as it seems.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice received something of a mixed response from fans, but it was impossible for even its biggest detractors not to get on board with Ben Affleck’s Caped Crusader.

Watching him battle the Man of Steel proved to be a lot of fun, and comic book fans everywhere appreciated seeing the armour from Frank Miller’s iconic The Dark Knight Returns brought to the big screen. It looked terrific in action, and Affleck definitely managed to pull it off in a live-action setting.

To celebrate “Batman Day” yesterday, filmmaker Zack Snyder shared an awesome new behind the scenes shot of the Caped Crusader from his DC “SnyderVerse,” and it’s a truly beautiful shot. 

“Batman is all of us,” the director said. “[He] is our rage at injustice…he stands alone, as we all wish we could, in the face of a corrupt system which wishes to oppress and exploit…he is that broken child, searching the dark alleys of the human soul to bring balance to the world.”

Those are the words of someone who clearly gets Batman!

Marvel’s Avengers puts the focus on Ms. Marvel in a big way, and that proves to be the best thing Crystal Dynamics could have ever done. Kamala Khan makes for a compelling and exciting lead, but a huge part of that can be credited to the phenomenal performance delivered by Sandra Saad.

A sequel hasn’t been announced just yet, though it seems obvious that a natural next step would be to explore Kamala’s relationship with Carol Danvers, a.k.a. the mighty Captain Marvel.

In the video interview below, we asked Sandra about potentially delving into that in a future game. “Oh yeah, I mean, that’s where she gets here name, right? She’s a huge fangirl of Captain Marvel,” she explains. “Even in A-Day when you see her chat about with Captain America. Do you remember that scene? He’s like, ‘Carol isn’t here, but she’d love your outfit’ or whatever.”

“Oh my God, I would love to explore that relationship too because as you’ve seen in the story, Crystal Dynamics has really handled those relationships very well. Kamala’s relationship with Thor is very different from Kamala’s relationship with Iron Man and so forth. So, yeah, I’m excited to see what other possibilities there are for these other heroes and their relationships.”

The game does a great job focusing on the relationships between characters, so it seems obvious that the Marvel’s Avengers franchise could take Kamala and Carol to some exciting new places.

It was another sluggish weekend at the global box office, but Tenet did manage to pass $200 million overseas to bring its worldwide total to $250.1 million. A strong debut in Japan really helped Christopher Nolan’s movie thanks to a surprisingly solid $4.3 million haul during its opening weekend. 

Warner Bros. is still hiding box office figures from distributors, but Deadline confirms that Tenet managed to bring in $4.7 million in North America this weekend, a 30% drop from last week’s $6.7 million. 74% of theaters are open, but those in New York, Los Angeles, and San Franciso remain closed. 

Only $36.1 million of Tenet‘s global haul is from the domestic box office, with the other $241 million from international markets. It’s not a good result, and easy to see why studios are wary right now.

Interestingly, the trade notes, “[Warner Bros.] plans to give Tenet a big marketing relaunch whenever New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco reopen. They’ve kept their P&A thrifty on the TV stateside with spots during the NBA and NFL, and have largely focused on a digital campaign.”

Needless to say, numbers like these do not bode well for the chances of Black Widow receiving a theatrical release this November, especially with COVID-19 clearly not getting any better. Despite a lot of theaters being open, it does seem like most people remain wary of visiting them (the advice from medical experts is that it’s not safe to watch a movie on the big screen).

Have you seen Tenet yet?
