Emmy Awards 2019: Full List of Winners
Despite a polarizing final season, HBO's Game of Thrones took home the award for Outstanding Drama Series at the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards. Star Peter Dinklage also grabbed a prize, his fourth win for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series. Which is not only a record for that category, but it still makes him the only Thrones star to win an Emmy acting award for the series.
The night's other big winner was Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who nabbed Outstanding Actress in a Comedy Series and Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series for her acclaimed Amazon series Fleabag. Jodie Comer, of the Phoebe Waller-Bridge-produced series Killing Eve, won for Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series.
Arkham Origins Dev, Comics Author Tease Cryptic Messages on Batman Day
Update:
Longtime Batman comics writer Scott Snyder tweeted out Sunday afternoon a notably less cryptic message than his counterparts at WB Montreal.
"Wait for it: #bewarethecourtofowls," Snyder's tweet read, quote-tweeting WB Montreal's original video tweet. Snyder's tweet has since been deleted.
Snyder is the author of such modern Batman arcs as the Court of Owls, City of Owls, Death in the Family, and many others. His Court of Owls arc is where Batman readers were first introduced to the shadowy group that seemingly runs all of Gotham City. His tweet seems to indicate that whatever project is coming from WB Montreal, it may involve the Court of Owls, though there has been no such confirmation from Snyder or WB Montreal at this time.
Batman Arkham Origins Dev Releases New Teaser Image
Update 2: WB Games Montreal has released a more clear image of one of the symbols teased in the original Batman Day video, alongside a new tagline for the presumed next Batman: Arkham game.
Released on WB Games Montreal's Instagram account, check out the image below.
Downton Abbey Trounces Rambo: Last Blood and Ad Astra at the Box Office
The posh upstairs/downstairs antics of Downton Abbey: The Movie - the cinematic sequel to Julian Fellowes' hit TV series - was enough of a dapper draw to rake in an estimated $31 million in its opening weekend. It's a handsome haul that proved too much to overcome for Sylvester Stallone's Rambo: Last Blood and Brad Pitt's sci-fi flick, Ad Astra.
Adding in the overseas box office, Downton Abbey's pulled in $30.8 million, bringing its entire run so far to $61.8 million. Which is the type of take vs. budget (a meager $13 million) that might have Focus Features and Universal Pictures International working feverishly to craft a sequel.
Last Blood and Ad Astra didn't perform poorly however, with Pitt's well-reviewed space mystery snagging second place with $19.2 million. It was enough to just barely edge out Stallone's final installment in the 37-year Rambo franchise, which made $19 million.

New Batman Creative Team to Push Bruce Wayne ‘To His Limits’
Big changes are coming for DC Comics' Batman line in 2020. We already know current Batman writer Tom King is making the transition to a new monthly series called Batman/Catwoman in January. And now we know the creative team tapped to take over the flagship Batman comic.
As part of this year's Batman Day festivities, DC revealed that writer James Tynion IV, artist Tony S. Daniel, inker Danny Miki and colorist Tomeu Morey will be taking over the series next year. These names should be immediately recognizable to Batman readers. Tynion is currently co-writing Justice League and recently wrapped up a multi-year run on Detective Comics. Daniel has a long history of drawing (and sometimes writing) the monthly Batman comic, including the current "City of Bane" storyline.
