Studio Ghibli producer Toshio Suzuki has said the next feature film from writer, director, animator, and Ghibli co-founder Hiyao Miyazaki should be finished within the next few years. The news comes in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, in which Suzuki discusses the studio adding its catalog to HBO Max and new details on Miyazaki's upcoming movie, How Do You Live?Suzuki calls How Do You Live?, which is based on author Yoshino Genzaburō's 1937 novel of the same name, "a big, fantastical story" about a teenage boy's intellectual and spiritual awakening following his father's death. According to Suzuki, "one of the new approaches" used in How Do You Live?'s creation is a longer production schedule and a larger budget than is typical for a Ghibli movie."When Miyazaki came back and said that I want to make a film again, I actually said that's not a great idea because he's achieved so much already," Suzuki says in the interview. "You can't come back and do something that you've already done in the past."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

If a giant meteor obliterated Earth, I'm fairly confident that Funko Pops would somehow still be manufactured and released into space to either the amusement or disgust of aliens. The Pop figurine collection grows in number every week, and soon you can get your hands on five figures that were originally intended as E3 2020 exclusives. E3 2020 was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic, but the exclusive Pops are releasing on May 26.E3 2020 Funko Pops See E3 2020 Funko Pops Naturally, the five new Funko Pops all hail from video game franchises. There's the Skull Trooper from Fortnite, Tyrael from Diablo 3, Shegorath from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, a metallic Handsome Jack from Borderlands 3, and a particularly unnerving 6-inch Leshen from The Witcher 3.

You can also purchase all five E3 2020 Pops for $67, which is, sadly, a savings of exactly zero dollars.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

There are a lot of items in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. From furniture to clothing to Redd's art to DIY recipes and beyond, there's quite a bit to collect over time, and it can be hard to know where to begin. Luckily, our sister site GameFAQs has a handy New Horizons catalog list so you can look up any item (or even villager!) in the game--or just browse if you're looking for decor inspiration.The catalog tool lets you sort by item type--housewares, wall-mounted furniture, shirts, shoes, and so on--or search for a specific item either in general or within the selected category. You can then click on any item in the list to see how much it costs (if you can buy it), how much you can sell it for, and where you can get it. You'll also be able to see the various color and design options for each item where applicable.The catalog is also up-to-date with the latest events and updates in the game--this means you can preview the upcoming wedding content, for example, well before you'll be able to get it during the wedding season event in June. This is great for planning ahead!Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

The update is available for all platforms and includes rappers like Lil Baby and Trippie Redd, pop artists such as Gavin Haley and The Aces, and more.The headlining artists of this new soundtrack update are Travis Scott, Roddy Ricch, and Schoolboy Q.

Horror franchises rarely die and Scream is a perfect example of that. Since the first movie premiered in 1996 there have been four films and even a TV show. What's more, a fifth movie is in the works. While no plot details or casting has been announced from the film, one cast member from the original Scream is throwing his hat in the ring. Finding a way to work him into the story could be difficult, though.When asked by TooFab if he'd want to come back for Scream 5, Lillard excitedly replied, "Yes, yes, I'm available, yes, yes." The actor, who played Stu in the first Scream, added, "There's nobody that wouldn't want to come back and reprise a role they got to do when they were a boy and be able to do something different as a man would be exciting. You just don't get that opportunity often."Of course, the big issue there is that Stu is very dead. In case you don't remember or somehow haven't seen the original Scream, we're going to get into spoiler territory. In the film, the character is revealed as one of the two killers parading around as Ghostface and cutting up his fellow classmates. By the end of the film, though, both he and Billy (Skeet Ulrich)--the other killer--were left dead.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

After a day of working on the first part of Destiny 2's latest quest, The Lie, things are going a little slow. In response, Bungie has adjusted this season's Seraph Tower event to help pick up the pace and make things easier.Bungie tweeted on May 13 that it was releasing a hotfix into Destiny 2 that would tweak the Seraph Towers and The Lie's quest requirements to help players complete it. Seraph Tower progression has been tweaked slightly, and the Champion enemies that show up as the last phase of the event have been made a little weaker. Bungie also adjusted The Lie so that each Seraph Tower completion counts for five times as much quest progression--and 10 times as much on the weekends.We have made adjustments to “The Lie” Quest and Seraph Tower Difficulty.💠 Champions have reduced power level and event progression has been slightly tuned.💠 Effective immediately, quest progression has been given a 5x multiplier which will be increased to 10x on weekends. pic.twitter.com/Z0aHldhbe3 — Bungie (@Bungie) May 13, 2020The new quest came into the game with the weekly reset on May 12, which datamining suggests will lead to the return of the Destiny 1 legendary shotgun Felwinter's Lie. But the first step of the quest requires the community to work together and complete Seraph Tower events--according to the datamines, Destiny players have to log 3 million event completions on each of the three planets that house Seraph Towers. After one day of play, the count is at 5% total completions in the EDZ, and only 1% on the moon and Io.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com
