Box office movies are known for their ability to inspire all sorts of wonderful (and sometimes weird) stuff. And movie-themed slots are no exception. Perhaps it is Hollywood’s ability to create universal things which can be implemented in all kinds of objects, games, etc. and attract a large group of people.
Or it could be the ability of gaming software providers to transform a movie into a unique casino game with authentic music and images. Whatever the reason, movie-themed slots are among the most played casino games together with the Greek mythology games like Age of the Gods series. With this in mind, let us take a look at some of the most popular movie-themed slots.

 

The Godfather Slot

Based on one of the best mafia-related movies ever made, The Godfather Slot provides a unique gaming experience which movie fans will not forget. The five-reel slot game is one of WMS Gaming’s absolute successes.

The Godfather Slot promises players an exciting gameplay based on the classic movie sequence the Godfather. Among the symbols on the reels are a horse head, gold rings, and machine guns. Moreover, the game has a progressive jackpot feature, offers the chance to win big.

Stunning animation and dramatic music is what players can expect from The Godfather Slot’s design. Interestingly, the game features not one, but two different themes – Corleone’s Office, a 25-pay line  game, and My Daughter’s Wedding, a 243-way-to-win game. Once a part of Vito Corleone’s family, players will have to accept offers that they can not refuse. As the game progresses, players will be given challenges by Sony and, upon completing them, they will become able to access the game’s bonus features.

As mentioned above, players can see many of their favourite things from the Godfather implemented in the reels’ symbols. The Scatter symbol is the gold rings – aligned, they trigger the bonus round of the game. The horse head and orange symbols trigger the free spin feature.  As one could expect, the logo of the game is the Wild symbol.

When all five reels land with rose symbols, players should consider themselves lucky – they have won the jackpot – either a progressive jackpot or a 2,500 coin jackpot. To win a big prize, players have to choose 6 out of 9 symbols.

 

The Dark Knight Slot

Arguably Microgaming’s best creation, The Dark Knight Slot is another stunning movie-themed slot. Microgaming’s creation features images taken directly from the movie, which makes it outstandingly popular among Batman fans. What is more, the provider has implemented new features in the slot, including Extra Wild Blasts and Super Stacked Wilds. Thanks to the Batman theme and the numerous bonus options, The Dark Knight Slots has become one of the most played slot games of all time.

The Dark Knight slot is a five-reel slot featuring four different progressive jackpots. Moreover, the game provides 243 different ways to win. Even though according to some there are relatively limited wagering options, The Dark Knight Slot features various random cash prizes and bonuses, which boost players’ chance to win big.

It is easy to understand why this slot has become so popular. First of all, it is based on the beloved box office Batman movie, with Microgaming implementing the movie into the slot in an intriguing way.  But the design is not all – Microgaming have made sure the game will appeal to players by introducing four progressive jackpots and a wide selection of bonuses as well.

 

Ghostbusters Slot

Should we speak of IGT’s greatest successes, we should definitely mention Ghostbusters Slot: a five-reel game with 30 different pay lines. The reels are set against a background of a cityscape and on them players can see all famous characters from the movie – here are Slimer, the Ghostbusters team, and even Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. Additionally, ghostbusting tools and other equipment represent low value symbols. On top of all, IGT has even implemented the movie soundtrack into its slot game.

Unlike most slot games, Ghostbusters Slot features not one, but two Wild symbols – the Purple Ghost and the Green Ghost. The Purple Ghost replaces ghostbusting tools and equipment, whereas the Green Ghost replaces the movie characters.

Ghostbusters Slot has four unique features: Extra Wilds, Cash Award, Wild Reels, and Multiplier. The Extra Wilds feature is triggered when between 1 and four symbols on the reels are turned into Wilds. As it could be expected, Cash Award feature awards a random amount of money. Moreover, Wild Reels feature is activated when up to three reels consist entirely of Wilds and Multiplier feature randomly adds 5x to current winnings.

Among the unique bonuses of Ghostbusters Slot is the Ballroom Busters Bonus feature, which is triggered when two Bonus symbols appear on the second and third reel along with the Slimer Bonus, positioned anywhere on the fourth reel.

 

Godzilla on Monster Island Slot

Said to be one of IGT’s greatest games, Godzilla on Monster Island Slot is a new generation game. Godzilla on Monster Island Slot is an intriguing progressive slot, based on the well-known legend and movie called Godzilla.

Godzilla on Monster Island is a five-reel slot game with 40 pay lines. This is one of IGT’s games, feautred in the MegaJackpots network, which gives players the chance to win millions of dollars. What players love about this amazing slot game is its captivating design and the numerous winning options available. Here, players can win as much as 50 free spins or multiply their winnings five times. Further, Godzilla on Monster Island Slot has a Multiplay feature which allows players to wager on four different games at the same time.

The game has amazing bonuses as well. For example, the Godzilla vs. the Military Bonus lets players destroy military tanks and helicopters via their touchscreens. Every time Godzilla destroys a hostile, players are awarded free credits. There is also the MechaGodzilla Bonus which allows players to observe a fierce mammoth battle between Godzilla and MechaGodzilla. Additionally, every time a player scores an “Atomic Win”, they are awarded with a scene from the Godzilla movie itself!

Last of Us HBO Showrunner Quietly Removes Name from Troubled Borderlands Flick

When your writer—one of Hollywood’s hottest—tries to hide their involvement, it’s a bad sign. The Borderlands film’s original script was written by Craig Mazin (The Last of Us, Chernobyl), who recently asked the WGA to use the pseudonym “Joe Crombie” instead of his name.

We hope this means Mazin considers Joe Abercrombie, Lord Grimdark, the grittiness GOAT, but that theory is unproven. Since Mazin wrote the script in 2015 for Eli Roth to direct, a steady stream of writers has been brought in. Aaron Berg, Chris Bremner, Sam Levinson, Zak Olkewicz, Tony Rettenmaier, Juel Taylor, and Oren Uziel have put around 70 fingers in the honey pot.

The name change likely avoids confusion. Mazin probably doesn’t want to be blamed for Jack Black/Claptrap madness, but he wants to keep his rights.

To clarify, the Borderlands film finished filming in 2021, but Roth was replaced by Tim Miller (Deadpool) in January.

When this surprising star-studded film (Kevin Hart, Jamie Lee Curtis, Cate Blanchet) limps out, what are your expectations? We think this was supposed to coincide with Borderlands 3’s 2019 release, but it’s overshot the mark.

Netflix cracks down on password sharing worldwide

After a delay, Netflix’s password sharing crackdown is reaching U.S. and international subscribers. After experiencing cancellations in regions where it had already implemented “paid sharing,” the streamer delayed the debut till the summer. U.S. Netflix consumers must either remove people from their account or pay $7.99/month for an additional membership for non-household members.

In weeks and months, many of worldwide markets will undergo similar transformations.

Current members can examine which devices are signed into their account and remove unwanted ones, as well as reset their password, to make this transfer smoother.

A “Transfer Profile” feature lets Netflix account sharers move their viewing history and watchlist to their own account.

Netflix informed investors that despite early cancellations, the password enforcement will benefit its long-term development and financial health.

Netflix co-CEO Greg Peters said the password enforcement in its first supported markets was similar to how subscribers reacted to pricing increases during its first-quarter earnings.

“We see an initial cancel reaction and then we build out of that, both in terms of membership and revenue as borrowers sign up for their own Netflix accounts and existing members purchase that extra member facility for folks that they want to share with,” Peters told investors on the April earnings call. “First of all, it was a strong validation to see consistent results in these new countries, because there are different market characteristics different from each other and also from the original Latin American rollout countries,” he said.

Netflix tested the feature in Latin America before adding Canada, New Zealand, Portugal, and Spain this year. It will reach more global markets today, including Brazil, Bolivia, Belize, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, the Philippines, Malaysia, Israel, Thailand, Taiwan, Switzerland, Sweden, and others.

The corporation may have postponed the crackdown in Q1 to avoid hurting net additions. Last quarter, the corporation added 1.75 million global customers, below Wall Street’s 3 million projection, to 232.5 million accounts.

It announced at results that U.S. members would receive the password-sharing adjustments “on or before” June 30. Netflix may have accelerated the timing.

Netflix revealed on its blog today that it will email U.S. account sharers.

“One household per Netflix account,” the firm advises. “Everyone living in that household can use Netflix wherever they are—at home, on the go, on holiday—and take advantage of new features like Transfer Profile and Manage Access and Devices,” the post adds.

The email, labeled “An update on sharing,” lists options and links to support documentation.

Netflix explains in a press email that it is “now starting to roll out updates to sharing to countries around the world, including the U.S.”

Netflix has yet to see the effects of a password crackdown in the U.S., where it faces increased competition for users’ time and money.

Today, HBO Max becomes Max, a new service that combines HBO and Discovery+ content, doubling the amount of programming. Paramount+ will add Showtime next month on June 27. Disney plans to merge Disney+ and Hulu into one app. Subscribers get more content with some price increases. Netflix is charging more for the same.
