Resident Evil 2 Mod Turns Untitled Goose Game Into a Honking Nightmare
Geese are scary, but you knew that going into Untitled Goose Game, as you chased around innocent children and grumpy gardeners. Well now a Resident Evil 2 modder has made the survival horror remake all the more terrifying by adding an oversized Goose in place of Mr. X.
The modder, known as Alister/ZombiAli, is also responsible for that ridiculous Thomas the Tank Engine mod that similarly replaced the towering Mr. X with the children’s show character. Take a gander at the GIF below and you’ll see Alister’s newest work, showing the Untitled Goose lifting the crashed helicopter out of the way to pursue Claire Redfield.
Box Office: Joker Passes Justice League and Man of Steel
Though it was Maleficent: Mistress of Evil that conquered the weekend box office, dethroning Joker with an estimated (and soft, compared to the first film) $36 million, Joker still impressively raked in $29.2 million.
Overseas, Joker brought in another $77.9 million for a worldwide take of $737.5 million.
Joker's domestic cache now stands at roughly $247.2 million, putting it ahead of Justice League's $229 million domestic winnings. Joker's also now passed Doctor Strange ($229 million) and X-Men: Days of Future Past ($233 million).

"Leto’s days as the Joker likely are over," THR states.
Again, Leto felt "alienated and upset" over the new R-rated Joker film, having believed Warner Bros. was planning on giving him his own solo Joker project.
