Is Captain Marvel Human or Alien?
With the first trailer for next year's Captain Marvel dropping today, we finally have a better idea of what the next big MCU movie is about. However, the trailer raises as many questions as it answers, especially for fans who might not be familiar with the Carol Danvers of the comics. This new footage raises the question of whether Carol is actually human or an alien.
With that in mind, we figured it was a good time to break down Carol's traditional origin story and powers and how the movie is changing the familiar source material. Is Carol human? Scroll down to find out, and watch the Captain Marvel trailer right here:
Captain Marvel: Human or Alien?
Earth Defense Force 5 Is Cheesy By Design, and I Kind of Love it for That
If Earth Defense Force 5 had paid DLC that put the Mystery Science Theater 3000 silhouettes at the bottom of the screen to riff on the on-screen action, I’d buy a Season Pass. Yes, the video game equivalent of a ‘50s sci-fi B-movie about shooting giant bugs and/or UFOs is back, and it embraces the cheese. It is dumb by design, and it embraces it, and after playing a handful of missions in both EDF5 and its cousin title Earth Defense Force: Iron Rain, I couldn’t help but have fun.
Graphics? Not great. Controls? So-so. Voice acting? So, so terrible that it’s actually delightfully fantastic. I’ll bet they had a ball at the voiceover recording sessions. And that’s the beauty of this series: it realized a long time ago that if it stopped taking itself seriously and leaned in the opposite direction that it could be something different and unique. Earth Defense Force 5 is the ultimate palate cleanser from whatever deep single-player experience you’re currently soaking yourself in.
Watch Tom Hardy Bring Venom to Life in Inside Look at New Movie
It’s the final week of filming for Venom, and Tom Hardy is standing in front of a cable car wearing a grey sweatshirt, jeans and simple sneakers, his hair slightly ruffled. Looking like he just walked in off the street, this Tom Hardy is exactly the one you’d expect to see in real life. Instead, he’s preparing to play a character who’s wrestling with a much more dangerous side.
On set, there is no physical embodiment of Venom, the dangerous symbiote who merges with Eddie Brock and is splashed across the branding for the the upcoming movie. But the presence of the iconic Marvel character hangs over the set, with crew members wearing hoodies sporting the Venom movie logo revealed at Brazil Comic-Con.

Captain Marvel: First Trailer Shows Off Story and Young Nick Fury
Marvel has released the first trailer for Captain Marvel, and of course it opens with Carol Danvers falling into a branch of Blockbuster.
First shown on Good Morning America, you can watch it right now, below:
The trailer seems to show how this non-traditional origin story will be told, with Carol Danvers struggling to remember her time on Earth, before she became a part of Starforce. We also get a good look at the de-aged versions of Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury and Clark Gregg's Phil Coulson.

Thronebreaker: Gwent Single-Player Spin-off Gets Release Date
CD Projekt Red has announced that Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales, the standalone single-player campaign for GWENT: The Witcher Card Game, will be released on PC via GOG.com on October 23, 2018, and for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on December 4, 2018.
Thronebreaker "combines narrative-driven exploration with unique puzzles and card mechanics" and is set to be a 30-hour RPG set in the world of GWENT and The Witcher.
It was originally expected to be released last year, but due to the size and scope of what the team was creating, CD Projekt decided to release it as a standalone game instead of as part of GWENT: The Witcher Card Game.
