Simon Pegg and Nick Frost have been friends and collaborators since the mid-1990s, and it's impossible to overstate their impact as a comedic duo both in their native Britain and here in the U.S. When Simon Pegg co-created the sitcom Spaced , he wrote a part for Frost , then a struggling actor who had been waiting tables for a decade. The duo then went on to star in Edgar Wright’s “Cornetto Trilogy,” three film parodies — most famously Shaun of the Dead — that Wright directed and co-wrote with Pegg. And decade ago, Pegg and Frost formed the production company Stolen Picture, which has brought about a film (2018’s Slaughterhouse Rulez ) and a couple of TV shows. source https://www.polygon.com/paul-simon-pegg-nick-frost-15th-anniversary/

When I sat down to play Bubsy 4D at this year’s Game Developers Conference , I didn’t exactly have high expectations. The Bubsy series has been reduced to a punchline over the past few decades, and its latest installment sure sounded like an ironic way to capitalize on the meme. Even its title is a cheeky riff on the maligned Bubsy 3D . And yet, within minutes of playing, I was totally captivated by this mechanically deep 3D platformer that gave me countless ways to chain together my moves. It reminded me of another game I had been playing recently: this year’s critically acclaimed Demon Tides . source https://www.polygon.com/bubsy-4d-interview/

The superhero turned mass murderer Omni-Man in Invincible is so closely inspired by Superman that creator Robert Kirkman originally wanted to call the character Supra-Man . (Kirkman only backed off because he was afraid of legal action from DC Comics.) But a reveal in the show's season 4 premiere, which adapts the Viltrumite War comic book arc originally published in 2010, reveals how that inspiration now seems to be going in the opposite direction. There are big similarities between the motives of the Viltrumites in Invincible and the Kryptonians in James Gunn’s Superman . source https://www.polygon.com/invincible-season-4-superman-explainer/
