Cobra Kai: Martial Arts Expert Reacts to Season 2 School Fight
Martial Arts expert Emon Rashid breaks down the brutal school fight from the Cobra Kai Season 2 finale.HBO Max Adds Four Anime Films, Two Anime Documentaries This Month
Anime is big business these days. Netflix has anime in 100 million households across 100 countries. Funimation just spent a billion dollars acquiring streaming service Crunchyroll. HBO Max is still a growing service, but is upping its anime game with a batch of six new films from GKIDS Films coming to the service this month.
The list includes four films and two documentaries, all of which are intriguing in their own right.
Weathering With You comes from director Makoto Shinkai, whose painterly backgrounds and sad stories have made him a favorite among anime fans. The film tells the story of a Japan buffeted by constant torrential downpours, and a boy who runs away from his home to Tokyo, where he meets a young girl who can manipulate the weather. Shinkai’s most critically-acclaimed and financially successful work is Your Name, which became somewhat of a crossover hit and surpassed Spirited Away as the highest-grossing anime film of all time.
Best Xbox Gaming Headset For 2021
Microsoft has kept up its dedication to backwards compatibility with the new Xbox Series X and Series S, and that extends beyond games to accessories as well. As a result, every Xbox gaming headset that was compatible with Xbox One can be used with the Series X and Series S, so don’t feel like you have to throw out your old Xbox headset and upgrade. But if you are looking to snag a new pair for your shiny new console, there are a ton of Xbox Series X|S gaming headsets to choose from, and it can be difficult to know which headsets are worth your money. We’ve tested a slew of Xbox headset options and rounded the ones that stand out above the rest.
One perk of owning an Xbox is that some of its finest gaming headset options are able to connect without a USB dongle, just like a controller. These headsets are also capable of turning your console on when powered up. With how sleek the new consoles look, it’s always nice when you don’t have to add a USB stick to the front of them. One of our favorite Xbox headsets, the SteelSeries Arctis 9X, is capable of doing exactly this and is well worth its hefty price tag.
All New January Fish, Bugs, And Sea Creatures In Animal Crossing: New Horizons
A new month has begun, and for Animal Crossing: New Horizons players, that means a new variety of bugs, fish, and sea creatures to catch. Players with Southern Hemisphere islands in particular will find a ton of new critters this month, including some valuable summer bugs and ocean fish like the Horned Hercules beetle and the blue marlin.
You can see all the new bugs, fish, and sea creatures that are spawning in Animal Crossing: New Horizons this month below. We’ve also put together lists of all 80 fish, all 80 bugs, and all 40 sea creatures in the game, so be sure to check those out for more details as well as tips to help you catch them.
With the holidays now over, January looks to be a fairly quiet month for Animal Crossing, although there are still some notable things happening in the game. Another batch of New Year’s items is on sale until January 15, and the first Fishing Tourney of the new year happens this Saturday, January 9, for Northern Hemisphere players. Nintendo is also rolling out another content update for the game later this month, although it hasn’t shared any further details about it just yet.
WandaVision On Disney+: How To Watch, Episode Release Dates, And More
2020 was the first year since 2009 without a Marvel movie. Feels weird, doesn’t it? And while the next MCU movie–Black Widow–won’t be hitting theaters until at least May 7, there is a new Disney+ show coming your way taking place in Marvel’s expansive cinematic universe: WandaVision.
The new TV show follows Vision (Paul Bettany) and Wanda (Elizabeth Olsen) as they live their lives, seemingly trapped in a sitcom which bounces around between time periods. If the video above is confusing to you, don’t worry, as we’re all trying to make heads or tails of what’s happening.
Most likely, the show will explain what happened to the duo in the Avengers: Endgame aftermath. Though, it’s worth noting Vision was still definitely dead when that movie ended. This will probably include how Vision came back to life and how he got the Mind stone back on his forehead–if it’s really even there.
Rust’s Monthly Update Coming Soon, Will Enable Twitch Drops
Rust, the multiplayer survival game, will implement its first monthly update of the year on January 7 at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET. The devs stated in a Twitter post that players should expect a blueprint and map wipe, as well as Twitch drops. Other specifics are unknown as of this time.
We’ll be releasing our regular monthly update on January 7th at 19:00GMT / 14:00EST.
The update will bring a forced blueprint + map wipe and we’ll be enabling Twitch drops! further details will be posted in the update blog on the 7th. pic.twitter.com/L0kZ4B7CRH— Rust (@playrust) January 2, 2021
A blueprint wipe deletes, as the name implies, blueprints and players’ data, including inventory and positions. A map wipe removes player-made structures, but keeps intact natural terrain and NPC towns–effectively resetting a map. Facepunch, the dev, regularly pushes map wipes at the beginning of every month.
Facepunch will also be enabling Twitch drops, a feature that rewards players for watching Rust streams on Twitch. To get this feature, you need to activate Twitch drops on your Steam account. You can identify which streams to watch by checking if it has the Drops Enabled tag.
New On Netflix This Week: History Of Swear Words, Martin Scorsese, And More
The new year means another 52 weeks packed with all sorts of cool new offerings hitting Netflix. While the upcoming week isn’t exactly bursting with new content to set the tone appropriately, there’s still plenty peppered throughout the next few days to keep you busy while you shake off the rust and get used to your non-break schedule once again.
On January 5, the streaming service debuts the self-explanatory History of Swear Words. Hosted by Nicolas Cage, the show offers “an education in expletives: the history lesson you didn’t know you needed… Through interviews with experts in etymology, pop culture, historians and entertainers, the six-episode series dives into the origins of ‘F***’, ‘S***’, ‘B****’, ‘D***’, and ‘P****.'” We could offer more details still, but chances are you will know immediately whether this will be your thing or not. All in all, it remarkably looks to be one of the more conventional Nicolas Cage roles.
Netflix’s Cobra Kai Season 3: Why Kreese’s Story Matters And How It Shapes Season 4
Of all the things you might have expected from the third season of Netflix’s Cobra Kai, there was one element that took many fans by surprise. After all, following the Season 2 finale, there was plenty to cover–Miguel’s (Xolo Maridueña) coma, Johnny (William Zabka) being ousted from Cobra Kai, and the aftermath of the high school karate riot. Still, Cobra Kai Season 3 managed to follow up on all of those story threads and include something unexpected: A deeper look at Sensei Kreese (Martin Kove), the villain of the first Karate Kid movie that then reappeared on the Netflix original series at the end of Season 1.
Warning: The following contains spoilers for Season 3 of Cobra Kai. If you haven’t seen the new episodes yet, what are you doing here? Go open the Netflix app and watch the third season now.
Cobra Kai has explored events from the past before, even, giving some hints at Johnny’s childhood before the first Karate Kid movie. However, there’s an entire subplot running through the new season to highlight the man Kreese was before founding Cobra Kai. We learn his humble origins as an awkward busboy at a diner, who ultimately finds himself enlisted in the Vietnam War. We then follow him throughout the war, reporting to a commanding officer that lives the “no mercy” lifestyle that would ultimately become the foundation of the Cobra Kai dojo.
Windows Visual Overhaul Leaked Through Microsoft Job Listing
In a recent job listing for a senior software engineer, Microsoft remarked that they were planning on making some extensive visual changes to the Windows UI to remind their user base that Windows is still a hip OS, as reported by Windows Latest.
The listing stated: “On this team, you’ll work with our key platform, Surface, and OEM partners to orchestrate and deliver a sweeping visual rejuvenation of Windows experiences to signal to our customers that Windows is BACK and ensure that Windows is considered the best user OS experience for customers.” The ad has since been altered to remove any references to this Windows makeover, as Windows enthusiasts began to notice it in the listing.
Codenamed Sun Valley, the UI reboot was originally reported on by Windows Central back in late October 2020. According to this report, the planned refresh will most likely arrive as part of Windows 10 Cobalt during the 2021 holiday season, and will be bringing significant updates to user-interfaces like the File Explorer, Action Center, and Start menu. The update is meant to modernize the user experience to match a world that has become accustomed to more lightweight and navigable platforms.
