The Genshin Concert came to Los Angeles on Sunday night, attracting thousands of Teyvat’s fans from all over. Online gaming communities can have a bit of a reputation for being toxic, and Genshin Impact’s is no exception. In person, though, that shadowy cloud of internet hostility didn’t hang over the theater as we congregated around our favorite game and an orchestrated celebration of its music.
Blue Beetle Interview: Director Angel Manuel Soto on Family & Xolo Maridueña
01.11.2023 - 20:11 / comingsoon.net / Jaime Reyes
ComingSoon Editor-in-Chief Tyler Treese spoke with about the DC Studios superhero movie. The director discussed the importance of family and his affinity for Xolo Maridueña. The film is now available on DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K UHD.
“Jaime Reyes suddenly finds himself in possession of an ancient relic of alien biotechnology called the Scarab,” reads the film’s synopsis. “When the Scarab chooses Jaime to be its symbiotic host, he’s bestowed with an incredible suit of armor that’s capable of extraordinary and unpredictable powers, forever changing his destiny as he becomes the superhero Blue Beetle.”
I think that’s a great question. Given that Xolo cannot promote the film and the actors cannot promote the film, I love that you start with that question because it is very important for me to see him shine. When I met him, he had only done … I think, the first season of Cobra Kai. I never saw the show, but I loved his personality, and I love the way he is with his family, you know? Like his family is always with him. So being able to see him come from Cobra Kai fame, step onto the plate, and embody the character of Jaime — because Jaime is very much him. That’s the beauty of it when we cast him. Xolo and Jaime Reyes, before getting the superpowers, are very, very similar in their personalities and the way they mingle with their families.
But seeing him step up — not just to be a leading man, but also to be a superstar in the way of action — demands it, and to have the vulnerabilities and the emotionality that I like to see on this type of character without being unabashedly himself, but at the same time, given that wish fulfillment. Him and his family were very close, and he also stays true to his origins, his family, and his beginnings. It just shows you that the heart of Jaime Reyes and the heart of Xolo are almost the same.
We have grown to love a lot of these movies that are exciting, and the tropes are there, but they’ve always been based out of a certain individuality. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. The whole idea of keeping your identity a secret is for the protection of the ones that you love, so there is a reason for that existence. But there’s also another part to the story that, for us, at least — growing up in our communities — we wouldn’t be anywhere near where we are if it wasn’t for the people that came before us. It was our ancestors, our parents, our family, and our communities that have helped us get to a place of safety and a place of being able to do the things that we want to do in our lives because they care.
That is our experience. Growing up, my community was always … if something happened to your dad — God willing, nothing happens to your dad — but if something were to happen to

Sonic Roll, A Board Game Starring The Blue Blur, Is Coming In 2024
Board games and video games go hand-in-hand for a lot of very obvious reasons. If you like playing one, then there's a very strong chance you'll like playing the other. That's why there tends to be a lot of crossover between the two worlds. Video games based on board games, and famous video game characters making the leap to your tabletop. Sonic will be doing a little of the latter in 2024 via Sonic Roll, a board game based on the original series of games created by Kess Entertainment.

Blue Eye Samurai’s sex scenes required as much consideration as the fights
For the team behind Blue Eye Samurai, there was no debate on whether to depict graphic acts of intimacy, even if it meant courting discourse. For all its high-impact fight sequences and blood-soaked melodrama, the show was ultimately about survival in 17th-century Japan, and for women of Edo Japan, that involved sex.
