I was just a little kid when the first movie came out so this news kinda throws me back in time a little. After 20 years from its release, the Independence Day movie is finally getting a sequel. And there is a release date this time around, set to June 24, 2016 in the United States. Thor’s brother is going to replace Will Smith in the new movie. With almost all the original cast returning to fight in a second invasion, it seems only Will Smith doesn’t care about the fate of humanity anymore, as he decided not to be a part of this. The leading role was offered to Liam Hemsworth, the younger brother of Chris Hemsworth.

Liam Hemsworth is better known for his role in The Hunger Games where we portraits Gale Hawthorne, the best friend of Katniss Everdeen, the main character of the movies/books. While I don’t remember his performance to be spectacular in the Hunger Games series, I could see him grow to be a good actor. However I think a movie about an alien invasion is not really the best opportunity for someone to prove his acting skills.

The filming for the movie has already started yet no plot synopsis was announced. We’ll have to wait and see what’s going to happen this time. The visual effects evolved so much in the last 20 years so I expect this to look amazing. Maybe even find out more about the nasty  aliens who want to destroy Earth so bad. It was the realism of the effects that made the previous Independence Day movie to be the box office winner for 1996 with a total grossing of $306,169,268. With that much money on the table, it’s a wonder that it took them so much time to make a second part. There are expected to be at least 2 new Independence Day  movies, this one in the summer of 2016 and a third one set to 2017.

Evaluating Fallout 76’s Value in 2024

If you’ve been keeping up with the new Fallout show on Amazon Prime, chances are you’ve been relying on PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium to access and enjoy one of Bethesda’s legendary RPGs. We decided to bypass the highly acclaimed Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 3, opting instead to explore the vast landscapes of West Virginia in Fallout 76. Infamous for its initial reception, Todd Howard’s “Fallout with Friends” has evolved significantly over the past six years. However, does that imply the game is of high quality? Is it worth playing in 2024?

As we ventured out of Vault 76 for the very first time, we were determined to find the answers to those burning questions. Recalling our escapades on the Push Square YouTube channel, we encountered quest-giving NPCs—a feature that was surprisingly absent upon release—awe-inspiring bases built by fellow players—and an abundance of loot that could easily burden us 76 times over.

In the midst of the vast array of open-world online experiences, we found ourselves quite enthralled by the combination of 50s classics playing in the background as we obliterated the heads of ghouls. And to top it off, we were able to enjoy all of this with our friends. Exploring the wasteland in the company of a ragtag band of survivors adds a unique element to Fallout 76, setting it apart from other games in the series. However, does it manage to prevent us from uninstalling and transitioning to one of the mainline entries in the series? To discover more, be sure to watch the complete video!

After a long wait, it appears that the search for a capable Hollywood actor to bring the brooding Shadow the Hedgehog to life has come to an end. Keanu Reeves, a renowned actor known for his iconic roles in film franchises such as The Matrix and John Wick, as well as his involvement in the highly anticipated game Cyberpunk 2077, has officially been cast for the role.

Speculation has been running wild lately, but The Hollywood Reporter has officially confirmed the casting, citing reliable sources in the know. News of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 being showcased at Cinemacon has quickly spread. Reeves is sure to bring his own special touch to the role, but it’s uncertain how well he will mesh with the mustachioed Dr. Robotnik, as Jim Carrey is set to reprise the character.
