With Ahsoka currently taking a deep dive into the powers of the Force, it's a good time to look back at a previous Star Wars adventure. Obi-Wan Kenobi is a new six-issue miniseries from writer Jody Houser and artist Salvador Larocca that retells last year's epic Disney Plus series.

Bethesda Game Studios and creative director Todd Howard have just launched Starfield, but fans are already looking forward to the Toddster’s next big project. In this case, it won’t be another RPG – Howard is executive producing an Indiana Jones game being crafted by Wolfenstein developer MachineGames. We haven’t heard much about the game since it was first announced back in early 2021, but in a new interview with Esquire, Howard provided a few fresh hints about the title. Per Howard, the new Indy game will bring the franchise to life in a unique way, with a particular focus on exploration.

After multiple delays, Payday 3 finally arrives this month, but if you just can’t wait to get your hands on the game, a free open beta is being held this weekend. The Payday 3 Technical Open Beta won’t require you to have pre-ordered the game – anybody on Steam or Xbox Series X/S can jump in (PS5 is excluded for whatever reason). Starbreeze does warn the beta build is from a few months back, so it doesn’t necessarily represent the final state of the game – the beta is more about testing the capacity of the Payday 3 servers.

Denzel Washington is back as Robert McCall in. Director Antoine Fuqua caps his trilogy of action thrillers centered around a vigilante with a mysterious past. The new movie sees McCall finding a home in Southern Italy, but trouble soon finds him as he finds himself face-to-face with the Mafia. The first Equalizer movie was a surprise hit, and the second one wasn’t as good, but it had its moments. Unfortunately, the third Equalizer movie is the weakest in the series. The Equalizer 3 is yet another example of diminishing returns.

Denzel Washington’s trilogy concludes this weekend, which means now is the perfect time to look back on the series and rank them from best to worst. Personally, none of them are awful, but one of the films definitely stands out amongst the other two. Where does this latest entry rank among the franchise? Read on to find out.

Never doubt the power of an A-list superstar. The Denzel Washington-led Equalizer 3 destroyed all competition at the domestic box office en route to a $42 million 4-day weekend ($34.5M 3-day) after an impressive $13.1M Friday, per Deadline. That’s about on par with the previous two entries in Antoine Fuqua’s franchise, a hair under The Equalizer 2 ($36M) and just over The Equalizer ($34M).

“A bear and a mouse busk for their supper” reads like a classic bar joke setup, tuned to suit children’s sense of humor and guileless outlook. “A bear and a mouse confront a musically anhedonic kritocracy” is more of a mouthful, and much less kid-friendly. So the education about rigid forms of government nestled in Ernest & Celestine: A Trip to Gibberitia, Julien Chheng and Jean-Christophe Roger’s sequel to the 2012 animated feature Ernest & Celestine, feels a bit out of the blue.

The Equalizer 3 is here. But while I enjoy Washington’s performance as Robert McCall, it’s far from his best work. Indeed, the multiple Academy Award-winning actor boasts an impressive resume that places him in the GOAT conversation.

The Indiana Jones video game is something we know is in development. With the IP getting a new resurgence thanks to the most recent film release, what better time than now to get a video game out there, too? Unfortunately, we haven’t heard much about this title since the game was first revealed. Instead, the game is being developed under MachineGames alongside Bethesda. But besides that, the development team has kept things a bit hush. That might change soon as we know the game development is currently midway through being completed.

Director Antoine Fuqua says he sees as an unofficial sequel to Man on Fire.
