Steven Spielberg reveals the one thing he'd change about A.I Artificial Intelligence today

Consider Poltergeist , directed by Tobe Hooper ( The Texas Chainsaw Massacre ) based on a story by Spielberg, who may have also ghost-directed the horror classic depending on who you ask. Or there's The Goonies , technically directed by Richard Donner with another "story by" credit for Spielberg. According to the film's child stars, he probably deserved a co-directing credit on the ’80s adventure classic. source https://www.polygon.com/steven-spielberg-stanley-kubrick-ai-artificial-intelligence-interview/

No matter what Steven Spielberg does, he'll never eclipse my favorite alien invasion thriller

Steven Spielberg ’s newest sci-fi movie is Disclosure Day , an action-packed story about a guy (Josh O'Connor) who steals information detailing a decades-long international conspiracy to cover up proof of extraterrestrial visits to Earth.

Black Ops 7's classic playlist is the remaster we've been waiting for

Over the years, Call of Duty has gotten quicker. Compare the latest Black Ops and Modern Warfare entries to those of more than a decade ago, and you'll find that movement is faster, health is lower, and maps are generally smaller, leading to an increased pace across the board. If you want to be any good at the game and top the leaderboards, getting your head around sliding, wall jumping, and the infamous "slide canceling" is almost mandatory. source https://www.polygon.com/black-ops-7-bo7-call-of-duty-classic-playlist/

Silo is the perfect Severance replacement, and it releases on Apple TV in 3 weeks

It’s been nearly 15 months since Severance season 2 ended with a devastating cliffhanger , and there’s still no release date for season 3 . Fans waited three years between the first and second seasons of Apple’s hit sci-fi show, but hopefully it won't take another 21 months to get a third. Series star Adam Scott recently said that was too long and the Severance team is planning on releasing the new season sooner, but shooting hasn’t even begun yet. That means there won’t be more surreal stories about the employees of Lumon Industries until 2027 at the very soonest. In the meantime, however, Apple is dropping another great show for fans of twisty science fiction in just three weeks. source https://www.polygon.com/apple-severance-replacement-silo/
