Bluey lives, the fight continues: Why Disney+ just released new mini-episodes even though they promised the series was over

It doesn’t matter whether you have children or not: Bluey is a fantastic series for all ages (yes, really) that has inevitably become a merchandising empire of all kinds. And Disney, obviously, has not put any barriers: if you want Bluey, you will have it in all forms and colors: everything looked incredible and the future was bright… Until its creator, Joe Brumm, released two episodes, The Cartel and Surprise!, which worked perfectly as a series finale. Right after, he announced that there would be a movie on August 6, 2027, and that’s it.

It doesn’t matter whether you have children or not: Bluey is a fantastic series for all ages (yes, really) that has inevitably become a merchandising empire of all kinds. And Disney, obviously, has not put up any barriers: if you want Bluey, you will have it in every form and color: everything looked incredible and the future was bright… Until its creator, Joe Brumm, released two episodes, The Cartel and Surprise!, which worked perfectly as the series finale. Right after that, he announced that there would be a movie on August 6, 2027, and that’s it. It’s over.

Bingo!

It’s over… for their part, of course. The rights to the series are held by Disney, and it doesn’t seem likely that once Brumm has finished telling his story, they won’t make more and more episodes, even if it means losing much of what made it incredible, accessible, and sensitive in the first place. No one has announced anything official, and that’s why everyone was left not knowing how to react when Disney+ unexpectedly uploaded new Bluey shorts last week out of the blue. Who created them? Where did they come from? Why didn’t they launch a big promotional campaign about it? Fortunately, there are solutions to the mysteries.

Things, as they are: these shorts of one to three minutes are what anyone who hasn’t seen Bluey thinks the series is. That is, children’s songs, silly lessons, and very simple plots, not so different from a CoComelon or what can be found on YouTube Kids. And the reason for this neglect uncharacteristic of the series is that… they are small shorts, once called Bluey Bits, designed and created directly for YouTube, which were uploaded over the years and now, with the regular episodes finished and the movie on the way, have been released on Disney+ so that no one forgets the brand. As if that were possible, really.

As one might expect from this kind of vague and uncharismatic animation, there is no real signature. Of course, there have been animators and screenwriters behind it, but all authorship belongs to Ludo Studios, the production company of the show. In other words: they haven’t even wanted to provide exact details about who made these little shorts that -this is the good part- can be watched in ten minutes. No one knows if this will be all or if there will be more before the movie comes out, but it is to be expected that Brumm and his team will prepare new surprises by then, although a season 4 seems completely distant now.

If you’re curious and your kids are too eager for Bluey, you should know that in addition to the shorts, this year a new CD has also been released, featuring instrumental songs that play in the series, and a new video game with an original story created by Brumm. Ah! And also, a Minecraft DLC. I suppose they are saving the Fortnite thing for the movies, but being the most-watched television series in recent years, easily surpassing infinitely more expensive productions, it wouldn’t be surprising if Disney started making new episodes like that, without the original creator’s permission and without fully capturing the tone of the series, doing exactly the opposite of what Bluey preaches: treating children as fools.

The critics are hating The Mandalorian and Grogu and that could mean the end of Star Wars

Disney has acknowledged that they are having trouble reaching the young audience. Star Wars appeals to the audience over 30 years old, but it seems that it no longer captures the attention of children as it used to. If we add to that the fact that the series are performing much worse than they expected, it seems they have a creative crisis on their hands. Especially considering that it has been seven years since we had a new Star Wars movie, leading to the thought that this very, very distant universe may be in crisis. Especially because The Mandalorian and Grogu have been openly despised by the […]

Disney has acknowledged that they are having trouble reaching the young audience. Star Wars appeals to the audience over 30 years old, but it seems that it no longer captures the attention of children as it used to. If we add to that the fact that the series are performing much worse than they expected, it seems they have a creative crisis on their hands. Especially considering that it has been seven years since we had a new Star Wars movie, leading one to think that this very, very distant universe may be in crisis. Especially because The Mandalorian and Grogu has been openly despised by critics.

A Movie with Little Sense

The Mandalorian is a series that, upon its release, was highly appreciated. Directed by Jon Favreau, it knew how to do everything a science fiction franchise needs today to be relevant. Having a charismatic character, an adorable pet that people want to cuddle, making an intelligent mix of genres, and having a hopeful tone more anchored in adventure than anything else. A winning formula that has systematically worked in recent years, as Project Hail Mary has demonstrated.

In fact, the first two seasons were a great success. Both critics and audiences greatly enjoyed the adventures of the Mandalorian and Grogu, affectionately dubbed Baby Yoda by the public. The problem is that in the third season, things started to go awry. The critics were less than enthusiastic about an erratic season that seemed unclear about where it wanted to go, and the audience responded in a similarly lukewarm manner: the numbers were not terrible, but they were not those of the first two seasons. And the public discourse was not as enthusiastic as in the first two seasons, beginning to show signs of fatigue.

The Mandalorian and Grogu is a conclusion for the series in the form of a movie. With everyone involved in it, it aims to be a big celebration for the fans. But the question is, are there still fans of The Mandalorian to justify it? And above all, does it make sense as a movie?

It seems that the answer, especially for the second part, is no. The critics have slammed the movie, accusing it of being like an extended episode, but worse produced, without really being satisfying in any possible sense. Except for the aspects where there have never been complaints. The Mandalorian is great, Grogu is adorable, and the music is excellent, but the CGI, the action, and the aesthetics do not seem like those of a movie, with a quality far below what one would expect from a high-budget film. Not to mention a production from Disney. Especially from a series that stood out precisely for the care of all these aspects.

A galaxy far, far away that does not excite

That criticism and the audience do not always go hand in hand is not something unknown. But with The Mandalorian and with Star Wars, in general, there tends to be some overlap. Something that is not good news for Disney, even with extremely pessimistic projections from experts.

According to analysts, the movie will make 80 million dollars in its first four days of screening. An excellent figure for any other movie, but disastrous for a Star Wars film: no movie in the franchise has ever made less than 100 million. Some of them have been considered failures because of this. Something that suggests that The Mandalorian and Grogu may be the beginning of something that was already being noticed in the series. People may not be as into Star Wars as they were ten years ago.

The numbers after its premiere, in any case, have been somewhat better than expected. With 12 million dollars on its first day, forecasts have now increased to 90 million. Does this mean that The Mandalorian and Grogu is on its way to being a surprise success? No. It means it could be a smaller failure than expected. But unless it ends up making much larger numbers, it seems that it will spawn a conversation that no one wants to have. That perhaps Disney is exhausting its franchises.

Perhaps the audience is no longer there. They are tired of Star Wars. It has been decades of the same franchise, of cultural supremacy, and not always quality that lives up to the myth. It is possible that it just needs a break or to find the right key. It is impossible to know. Perhaps, yes, Star Wars is exhausted and is no longer as interesting as before. But what seems evident is that The Mandalorian and Grogu are no longer as captivating as in their first two seasons. And Disney must start to consider what they are doing with Star Wars.

Sony's new game is strange, creepy, and dodging literal bullet rains is incredibly fun

Sony has not been shining with its exclusive policy lately. Anyone who has a PlayStation 5 knows that well. However, that doesn’t stop them from occasionally releasing an interesting game here and there that catches attention. Especially when it comes to single-player games. And while it may not make as much noise or attract as much attention as Marvel’s Wolverine, Sony’s big title for the general public this year, we must highlight the company’s great title for this season: Saros.

Sony is not shining with its exclusive policy lately. Anyone who has a PlayStation 5 knows this well. This does not prevent them from occasionally releasing an interesting game that catches attention. Especially when it comes to single-player games. And while it may not make as much noise or attract as much attention as Marvel’s Wolverine, this year’s game from Sony with more cachet for the general public deserves recognition: Saros.

Pure Housemarque

Saros is an action game from the Finnish studio Housemarque. Specializing in developing arcade-style video games, they were acquired by Sony in June 2021, becoming part of PlayStation Studios. Since then, they have leveraged their experience in creating games with a great kinetic feel and tremendous visual and sound spectacle in favor of something different. Action games with roguelike elements that, while you can see their arcade lineage, are closer to what a more general audience might be interested in.

Their first game under the Sony umbrella was Returnal. A third-person shooter with roguelike and bullet hell elements in which we played as an astronaut stranded in a lost world without knowing what had happened. With elements of psychological horror, intense difficulty, and excellent sound and mechanical design, it was praised by critics and a specific segment of the audience, but it was not a huge commercial success. Selling less than a million copies on PlayStation 5 before its arrival on PC in February 2023, its problem was that it was too difficult and unforgiving, with very long sessions, for the average player.

Saros is a spiritual successor that continues Returnal where it left off in many ways. Its setting is also space-themed, it has elements of psychological horror, it is a third-person action game with roguelike and bullet hell elements, but this time there are some changes. The game is designed to be more accessible.

A kinder version of the classic

To begin with, in Saros the runs are shorter. With each game lasting between 20 and 30 minutes, dying doesn’t feel as punishing. You live and die quickly, making it so that after each boss we return to our base to do something important: improve our character. This offers another advantage over Returnal. If we feel that we cannot progress, the game provides enough mechanics for us to gradually reduce the difficulty. Something that was not present in Returnal.

This may make veterans of Returnal feel that Saros is more of the same, but a bit toned down. Except for the inclusion of the shield. Now, in addition to bullet storms filling the screen, we have a shield that allows us to absorb them. But with the particularity that it has a limited use and we will have to absorb bullets to recharge energy and use a powerful secondary shot, forcing us to plan well when to dodge and absorb those shots.

Additionally, if it becomes too easy or too difficult for us, from a certain point in the game there are modifiers that allow us to adjust certain elements of the game. Something that will change the amount of resources and rewards we obtain in the process, but will also help us achieve an experience closer to what we want.

Returnal had the problem of being too niche a game to be a blockbuster, even lowering what they were already doing at Housemarque. Saros makes compromises while doing new things with its formula to reach a new audience. And although Sony may not have marketed it well, it is an accessible game for all kinds of players. Especially those who enjoy third-person shooters and action games. Because while Saros may seem intimidating, and Returnal certainly was, it is a very interesting game that you should give a chance.

Yoshi arrives on Switch 2 to cap off an outstanding first half of the year for Nintendo

Nintendo is the great company most inclined to experiment with the limits of the medium. Trying things, experimenting, seeing what is possible to do within the video game without it ceasing to be one. Furthermore, in recent years they have decided to try to give a unique personality to each of their characters and franchises.

Nintendo is the great company most inclined to experiment with the limits of the medium. Trying things, experimenting, seeing what is possible to do within the video game without it ceasing to be one. Furthermore, in recent years they have decided to try to give a unique personality to each of their characters and franchises. Mario is platforms, Zelda is adventures, Donkey Kong is action, and now Yoshi seems to be exploration and experimentation. Or at least that is what their new and fascinating game suggests.

A game that is a natural encyclopedia

Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is the new game from Nintendo and offers us a truly unique experience: filling the pages of a book that has lost its memory, named Mr. E. But it is not just any book. It is a natural encyclopedia that contains a whole world inhabited by all kinds of adorable, terrible, and dangerous creatures that we must study and investigate to refill its pages. A feature increasingly.

How do you do that? Like any scientist would: by experimenting. Like Yoshi, being able to choose from eight of them —although the only thing that changes is their color—, we have to delve into each of the worlds and discover the different particularities of each of the little creatures we encounter. What happens if we eat them, if we stomp on them, if we throw them into the water or the mud, if we feed them apples or chilies, or if they interact with some of the other creatures.

The whole game is based on that basic principle. The empirical experience. We must ensure that we try to discover everything we can about each creature by exposing them to different situations and trying to find out how they behave and react to them. This will allow us to fill back the pages of Mr. E.

It seems childish, but it is not

This may make it seem like a children’s game or focused on a younger audience, but in reality, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is a family game. Suitable for all audiences. Although children of a certain age will enjoy it, the game requires a methodical and constant approach that, while rewarding curiosity, remains purely scientific. It requires constant experimentation and trying to discover what is possible to do and what is not with each of the creatures given the elements of each of the scenarios. Or taking into account Yoshi’s own abilities.

Because this second aspect is also a key part of the matter. Although the base difficulty is practically nonexistent, as you can’t even die in most levels, there are intense spikes of difficulty in the game. If we try to achieve 100% on each page, the game will require us to platform and master the skills relatively intensely, as well as pay much more methodical attention to the environment. Additionally, after finishing the game, a whole series of activities will be unlocked that will challenge us in a way that the rest of the game did not.

This makes the game interesting and never feels easy or tedious. There is always something to do and always a challenge to overcome. Adding a constant layer of discovery and challenge.

Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is one of the great surprises of the year that, perhaps due to its childlike appearance and coming from Nintendo, will go unnoticed by many people. But it is a game as brilliant as it is adorable that will delight anyone looking for a game that goes beyond traditional video game design. If you ever dreamed of being like Darwin and cataloging creatures in a lost land based on their behavior and environment, this is your video game. Because there is no other like it.

The most hated character from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will return for the third part

The remake of Final Fantasy VII has delighted the audience. Loved by both veteran fans and new fans, it seems that the general opinion is that it masterfully expands the mechanics of the original game while better developing its narrative. That doesn’t mean there aren’t some drawbacks. The open world of its second part, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, became tiresome for quite a few people.

The remake of Final Fantasy VII has delighted the audience. Loved by veteran fans and new fans alike, the general opinion seems to be that it masterfully expands the mechanics of the original game while better developing its narrative. That said, there are some drawbacks. The open world of its second part, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, became tiresome for quite a few people. And in particular, one character did not sit well with many. His name is Chadley, and you’d better learn to love him.

An Unpopular Character

The reason is that Naoki Hamaguchi, director of the Final Fantasy VII remake trilogy, has emphasized that Chadley will have a very important role in the third part of the remake. Stating that “his intense curiosity and tendency to perhaps talk too much —traits of which he is aware and at least somewhat self-aware— will be explored in more detail in the third installment, too,” he has pointed out exactly the reasons why people do not like the character: he is very intense and disruptive.

That doesn’t mean he doesn’t have his fans. As Hamaguchi himself has stated, “we understand that many fans have affection for Chadley,” “but he also wanted to emphasize that it would make me happy if players could warmly follow how Chadley is involved in this story and what role he plays in sustaining it.” Demonstrating self-awareness of all those who are not precisely fans of the character.

In the absence of a date, or even a name, for this third part of the remake, this is practically the only information we have about it. With rumors suggesting that there could be information at the upcoming Summer Game Fest, it is only a matter of time before Square Enix decides to give us more information about the conclusion of the remake of one of the most beloved games in history.

The CEO of TakeTwo clarifies when we can expect to see the next trailer for GTA6

There are countless rumors about GTA6, but none seem to have any real basis. Everyone is eagerly waiting for it, but no one knows anything.

This is something that the CEO of TakeTwo, the parent company of Rockstar Games, has addressed to clarify when we should know more: in the summer. In the summer, the hunt begins.

There are countless rumors about GTA6, but none seem to have any real basis. Everyone is eagerly waiting for it, but no one knows anything. This does not prevent a lot of speculation about when the game’s pre-orders or a new trailer will be released, based on the most outrageous ideas possible. This is something that the CEO of TakeTwo, the parent company of Rockstar Games, has addressed to clarify when we should know more: in the summer.

The hunting season begins in summer

Strauss Zelnick, CEO of TakeTwo, has said in an interview with Bloomberg that pre-orders for GTA 6 will open along with the game’s advertising campaign: in the summer. This means that until June 21 at the earliest, we should not expect to see a new trailer for GTA 6, as the next trailer for the game should kick off the entire advertising campaign for the game.

In addition, Zelnick has taken the opportunity to clarify some important things. Ensuring that there will be no delays, he has confirmed that the plan remains for the game to be released on November 19. Furthermore, he has confirmed that he does not know where all the rumors that have been appearing on social media over the past few weeks are coming from. Neither the phases of the moon nor pizza boxes nor pre-orders at Best Buy have any basis in reality, according to the man who knows exactly when everything is going to happen.

That said, it is possible that there will be a trailer before the official advertising campaign for the game begins. Although pre-order campaigns will still have to wait, it is possible that they decide to give a new look at the game before letting all of humanity know that the game is just around the corner. Therefore, even without conspiracies, there is no need to lose hope.

'Goldeneye 007' is one of the best games for Nintendo 64… but it was originally made for Super Nintendo. It turned out badly, of course

Since the first official James Bond game in 1984 (there were earlier ones but without rights, like a pirate), the saga had something in common for a decade: with a controller in hand, no one seemed to get the most out of agent 007. It didn’t help, of course, that the games still had to fight to be seen in 8 bits, with titles like A View to a Kill, Goldfinger, or The Living Daylights, which adapted a completely original story and even had audio tapes that explained the story in the voice of the very actor who played Q, Desmond Llewelyn. And then, GoldenEye arrived

Since the first official game of James Bond in 1984 (there were earlier ones but without rights, pirate-style), the saga had something in common for a decade: with a controller in hand, no one seemed to fully exploit agent 007.

It didn’t help, of course, that the games still had to fight to be seen in 8 bits, with titles like Panorama to Kill, Goldfinger, or The Living Daylights, which adapted a completely original story and even had audio tapes explaining the story from the mouth of the very actor who played Q, Desmond Llewelyn. And then, GoldenEye arrived.

Agitated, mixed, improved

In 1992, the franchise didn’t know where to turn with consoles, and a final game was released for Mega Drive titled James Bond 007: The Duel, in which the agent had to overcome 5 levels, face Jaws, and escape. The problem was that, at that time, Timothy Dalton had made his last appearance as the agent in License to Kill, and they had not yet found someone to replace him.

In doubt, they used his image on the cover and pixelated it within the game, although it didn’t matter much to anyone: despite receiving decent reviews, James Bond was part of the past, and there was little that could be done to revive the interest of the youth.

This impasse only lasted until, in 1994, they announced that Pierce Brosnan would take the helm of the saga in a new spectacular film: GoldenEye. And of course, with the relaunch, they had to have their corresponding video game: immediately, Rare and Nintendo began working on a possible game based on the movie, especially after the success of Donkey Kong Country.

Moreover, from Nintendo, having little faith in the producer, they proposed making a 2D platformer for Super Nintendo, which at that time was still selling non-stop and showed no signs of stopping. A perfect plan. Or not?

Back then, no matter how well they sold, movie adaptations were worth nothing: 2D platforms of Robocop or Batman that only slightly resembled the original title and that, in reality, would only go down in history for the most dedicated fans. Fortunately, Martin Hollis raised his voice in that meeting and insisted that the game should be made in 3D and developed for Nintendo’s new console, the Ultra 64 (which would eventually be, of course, the Nintendo 64).

What was the problem? By the time the console hit the market, the movie would have already left theaters and even the VHS market. At Rare, they were convinced it didn’t matter: the essential thing was to make a good game. The license was secondary.

They were right, of course: the game was released more than a year and a half after the movie, on August 25, 1997, but by then Pierce Brosnan was already starting the promotion for Tomorrow Never Dies, which would come out four months later, and the hand game ended up benefiting them.

It cost an absolute fortune for the time and they took much longer than usual, yes, but the result was incredible. No one cared that GoldenEye was a 1995 movie: the graphics, the extended story, the mapping, and the levels made the risk worth it. After all, masterpieces are not created every day.

It has been almost 30 years since the release of GoldenEye 007 and those who played it at the time still remember it as a canonical moment when they discovered that FPS games were not just for computers. And now, with the new 007 First Light about to be released, it’s time to ask ourselves if perhaps, none of this would have been possible without a brave person saying “I don’t see this for the SNES”. Hero.

'The Mandalorian and Grogu' premieres still below expectations, and box office analysts are nervous

Although some of us (I admit) find it hard to understand why The Rise of Skywalker grossed over 1 billion dollars at the global box office, the truth is that seven years have passed, and many things in between: the audiovisual landscape has changed completely and the arrival of Disney+ has turned Star Wars from an event into a mere habit. And of course, it has completely dampened the premiere of The Mandalorian and Grogu, which is far from being “grand.” From bad to worse For now, we only have data from […]

Although for some (I admit) it is hard to understand why The Rise of Skywalker grossed over 1 billion dollars at the global box office, the truth is that seven years have passed, and many things in between: the audiovisual landscape has completely changed and the arrival of Disney+ has made Star Wars go from being an event to becoming a mere habit. And of course, it has completely dampened the release of The Mandalorian and Grogu, which is far from being “a grand affair”.

From bad to worse

For now, we only have data from the previous passes, which have grossed 12 million dollars. And what does that mean? For now, nothing, but it is important to note that Han Solo: A Star Wars Story grossed 14.1 million in the same period, so things do not look good for this television spin-off. It is true that it is almost impossible for, as happened with that one, The Mandalorian and Grogu to lose money thanks to its tight budget, but everything will depend on the word-of-mouth from the audience.

For every action, there is a consequence, and in the case of Disney, which has decided to live large during the franchise era, this is to endure the devaluation of its brand. There was a limit that has been greatly exceeded, and now the only question is whether the weekend will manage to place the spin-off of The Mandalorian in a privileged enough position to surpass Han Solo. This, I assure you, is not what they expected.

There is no other family movie until Toy Story 5, and that might save it, but right now box office fans (and there are some, it’s a whole science) don’t really know what to expect from this weekend which, quietly, will mark the future of Star Wars. If we’re lucky, the future of all franchises. Let’s cross our fingers.

Announcing that one of the upcoming legendary War Boots will be themed around Warhammer 40,000, fans of Helldivers 2 will be able to obtain aesthetic effects related to this beloved franchise. Something they hope will attract fans of both IPs.

An event full of games for the fans

Within the context of the event, there were some other interesting happenings. Owlcat has released a beta of its new RPG, Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy, although exclusively for those who pre-ordered the game in its most expensive version. Owlcat also announced the release date of the expansion for its popular RPG Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, already the third one and titled The Infinite Museion, which will be released on June 11. And the highlight was the announcement of the release of Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus II during the event itself, a tactical RPG in the style of X-COM set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe.

Although it wasn’t the most announcement-filled event, especially considering it was the tenth anniversary of the event, it’s important to note that the Summer Game Fest starts in two weeks. With dozens of conferences, it’s expected that there will be announcements of new Warhammer 40,000 games among them, with this Warhammer Skulls focusing on updates for already known games. Giving them a chance to stand out among their audience in an environment specifically designed by and for them.

Elon Musk attacks 'The Boys'. He calls it "pathetic" and suggests that the ending was written as a "servile apology" to a supposed boyfriend of the creator's wife

If I were the richest man in the world, I can assure you that I wouldn’t be wasting my time on Twitter and getting upset because someone is parodying me. After all, it comes with the job: How am I going to be liked right off the bat if I earn an absolutely obscene amount of money? Well, Elon Musk doesn’t quite get it, and after going against The Odyssey for being “woke,” he has now launched an attack on the ending of The Boys, calling it “pathetic.” Do you think its creator is bothered by it?

If I were the richest man in the world, I can assure you that I wouldn’t be wasting my time on Twitter and getting upset because someone is parodying me. After all, it comes with the job: How am I going to be liked right off the bat if I earn an absolutely obscene amount of money? Well, Elon Musk doesn’t seem to understand this, and after going against The Odyssey for being “woke,” he has now launched an attack on the ending of The Boys, calling it “pathetic.” Do you think its creator is upset?

The Richest Boy

Musk wants to be liked at all costs, and that’s why he has been so bothered by the ending, where Homelander, a Trump lookalike with superpowers, loses it and ends up pleading for mercy saying “I’ll eat your fucking dick! Do you want me to eat shit? I’ll eat your fucking shit!”. The richest person in the world has not hesitated to label it as “Pathetic”. He has received applause from his followers while most have reminded him that he was also parodied in The Boys, and it didn’t end well for him.

Eric Kripke, the showrunner of the series, far from being intimidated, responded with “Oh my god, this is your review of what The Boys did to Homelander, I will never have a better critique than this”. Trying to recover from the blow, Musk replied “I haven’t seen the series, to be honest, here is the second best review… probably Kripke’s wife’s boyfriend got mad because Homelander was used in many based memes and had to write that ending as a servile apology”. Well, this is the level.

Of course, there is no evidence that his wife, Deanna, whom he has been married to since 2005 and with whom he has three children, has another boyfriend or anything similar, but Musk goes as far as he goes. Kripke doesn’t seem to be worried, stating that “No. I mean, I find it very funny how he is going against The Odyssey. If Elon Musk wants to go against us with whatever arguments he makes up, that’s his business“. Genius and character.
