The Results Are In: Better Call Saul Delivered
Last night, AMC aired the season one finale of Better Call Saul. Watching one of Breaking Bad's best characters in a way we've never seen before has been one heck of a ride, and we can't wait for more.
Although we're feeling positive about Saul's show, we wanted to get your take. So, we took to Twitter to ask the IGN community: Did the Better Call Saul finale deliver? Here's what you had to say about it:
@IGN @BetterCallSaul hell yes.... It wrapped up old Jimmy and now we will get Saul

EA Is Now Making Minions Games
Electronic Arts has announced its new partnership with Illumination Entertainment, which will see Minions and other Illumination characters coming to life in new mobile games.
The first game from this collaboration, the free-to-play Minions Paradise, will launch this summer, allowing players to build their own tropical Minion utopia with a new Minion character named Phil. Players will be able to play with waterslides, electric eel tanks, firefly trees, and (of course) bananas.
Wrestling Wrap Up: AJ Lee Retires from the Ring
Yeah, I know that the AJ Lee retiring story broke a few days ago, but I still consider it to be the biggest news going on in wrestling right now. So I'm gonna type about it some more whether you lovable rascals like it or not. Plus, this week's RAW didn't really give me much to work with, headline-wise.
No Bryan. No Ziggler. No Ambrose. No Hunter and/or Steph. This week's show really lacked a "lead." And can you even imagine if they tried to open last week's RAW with Orton vs. Kane? Holy s***, there would have been blood in the aisles. Heads on pikes. And look, we all know that the post-Mania RAW crowd is particular, but I feel confident enough to say that "Anyone vs. Kane" is no way to kick off anything.
The WoW Token Is Now Live
The WoW Token is now live in World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor.
Over at Battle.net, Blizzard Entertainment has posted a video that explains the process of exchanging gold for game time and vice versa.
When this reporter checked her server, she found that 30 days of World of Warcraft game time cost $20 USD or 30,906 in-game gold, though prices may fluctuate in future.
The WoW Token was announced last month as a way of enabling players to extend their game time without spending real-life money - and, alternatively, as a way for players to spend real money for an amount of in-game gold.
Game of Thrones: Clarke Talks Jon Snow Fan Theory
Daenerys Targaryen actress Emilia Clarke has thrown in her two cents on a popular Jon Snow theory about Game of Thrones.
Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Clarke said she chats with Jon Snow actor Kit Harington fairly often about their two characters meeting up on screen someday. But she wasn't previously aware of the fan theory that posits Jon Snow is related to Daenerys.
With the newfound information, the 28-year-old actress quipped that maybe the pair would have a romantic encounter in the future, since Targaryens like to "keep the bloodline pure."
iZombie’s Creators Talk Zombie Henchmen
Rob Thomas and Diane Ruggiero's latest TV endeavor, iZombie paid WonderCon Anaheim a visit this past weekend. At their panel, the show's creators and cast members indulged some fan questions, teased what's coming up in their first season, and discussed what makes their show stand out both from other zombie shows and the comics it originates from. The show has many different and intriguing elements thus far that fans love, from its zombie comic book DNA to its cast, characters, tone, and procedural elements. It's different from most other shows on TV. "It's your basic ZomComRomDram" co-creator Rob Thomas said, explaining that when he set out to write iZombie he wasn't thinking about making the next zombie show, but the next great female lead show on the CW.
Vote Now: The Justice League vs. The Sith Lords
Welcome back to IGN's Super Team Tournament 64! This is it - the Grand Finale. We're just one vote away from determining the greatest fictional team of all time.
To catch up all of the tournament's action, hit up the explosive opening, its brutal Round 2, the third round full of tough choices, the Exalted Eight, and last week's brutal Fearsome Four. Your votes in the last round knocked the Suicide Squad out of contention. But perhaps more surprisingly, fan favorites The Avengers were also eliminated!
Executive Producer Teases More Arrested Development
Executive producer Brian Grazer has confirmed more Arrested Development is currently in the works.
The Verge reports Grazer spoke about it during an interview at SXSW. "People are loyal to it, and we're gonna do another seventeen episodes," he said. "So stay tuned for Arrested Development." Skip to the 24:00 mark to hear his comments.
It currently appears to be very early on, as little else is known about the possible future for the sitcom, including who will return, what the arc will be, or when it will begin filming.
Arrested Development's fourth season aired exclusively on the online streaming service Netflix. Grazer did not comment on whether or not it will return to the service again.
Female Lead Reportedly Sought for Logan’s Run
Warner Bros.' long-in-development remake of Logan's Run is reportedly taking a page from the playbook of its dystopian sci-fi descendants.
According to The Tracking Board, the studio is completely reworking the script to change its eponymous protagonist from a male to a female lead.
Given the success of female-led sci-fi blockbuster franchises The Hunger Games and The Divergent Series, this actually makes a lot of business sense. It could also lend an already political story an additional layer of social commentary (as well as ribbing Hollywood's ageism and sexism).
Olivia Wilde Reportedly Back for Tron 3
Olivia Wilde will reportedly reprise her role as Quorra in Tron 3.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Wilde will team up again with co-star Garrett Hedlund as well as Tron: Legacy director Joseph Kosinski in the sequel.
Tron: Legacy opened in 2010 and made more than $400 million USD worldwide, sparking sequel talk back in 2012 at Disney.
