With Better Call Saul Ending, Bob Odenkirk Starts His Own Production Company

Bob Odenkirk, who has enjoyed a long career in TV and is currently starring on AMC’s Better Call Saul, has started his own production company. It’s called Cal-Gold Pictures, and the company is partnering with Sony Pictures Television for its first projects.

That move makes sense, as Sony Pictures Television produces Better Call Saul and its sister show Breaking Bad, with Odenkirk in starring roles on both as the crooked lawyer Saul Goodman.

Odenkirk brought on former Comedy Central vice president Ian Friedman to run the TV division of Cal-Gold Pictures.

Selena Gomez Is Suing A Mobile Game For Stealing Her Likeness

Actress and singer Selena Gomez has filed a $10 million lawsuit against the Chinese development company Guangzhou Feidong Software Technology Co. and MutantBox Interactive Limited for their mobile game, Clothes Forever – Styling Game, for stealing her likeness.

The entire premise of the game is that the player goes on virtual shopping sprees with celebrities, but at least one of the celebrities featured in the game didn’t actually give permission for their public image to be used.

Gomez isn’t the only celebrity you can go shopping with, with the Apple App Store page touting that players can “Interact with the most beautiful models and celebrities; the likes of Kardashian, Gigi, Beyonce, Taylor, and more will be dropping by and asking for YOUR fashion advice!”

The Nintendo Switch Is Sold Out Everywhere, So Someone Built One From Scratch

While the Nintendo Switch is also going through a major national shortage right now, it seems that one individual took matters into their own hands and built their very own Switch.

Recently, scalpers have taken to buying up all the Switches in stores and selling them for upwards of $600 each, almost 200% the retail price. In response to both the scalpers and difficulty in finding a Switch in-store, Reddit user Sarbaaz37 has not only built their own Switch out of parts, but has also written a complete guide on how you can too.

The total cost for the build comes in just short of $200, not including assembly costs if you plan to try it yourself. As it turns out a Switch can be made with just 22 parts, all of which are fairly cheap, aside from the logic motherboard.

League Of Legends Is Balancing Jungling In Patch 10.8

The latest update for League of Legends seeks to bring some new changes to the jungle position, evening out the weakness of the junglers in early game and nerfing the late game power these positions tend to bring. For a full rundown on 10.8, check out the developer’s blog.

Riot is seeking to restructure the jungle position, changing up the aggressive tactics that some junglers use during the start of the matches, instead offering bigger rewards for farming in early game. Extra sustain is also being added to allow those who fall to low health in the jungle, keeping a jungler alive in a tough position.

According to the developers, “Junglers are appropriately influential as a role, but we want to reduce the perception that they have to have an aggressive early presence to be effective. Instead, we’re giving them opportunities for more personal power through proper farming as the game progresses.”
