Invincible Fight Girl said “square up!”

With shows like My Adventures with Superman and Rick and Morty: The Anime, Adult Swim has been pretty covered on the superhero and sci-fi fronts. But the programming block is about to get more sporty with Juston Gordon-Montgomery’s Invincible Fight Girl — a new wrestling / action series that looks sick as hell in this preview clip.

Netflix’s Bioshock movie is still coming, albeit with a smaller scope and budget.

Netflix has been so quiet about its Bioshock film adaptation that it almost seemed as if the project might have been put on the back burner. But during a panel at this year’s SDCC, producer Roy Lee assured fans that, while Netflix has “reconfigured” the movie to be smaller and more personal, it’s still very much in the works.

Pokémon Horizons is ready to level up.

Ahead of a new batch of Pokémon Horizons episodes debuting on August 9th, Netflix has dropped a new trailer for San Diego Comic-Con teasing just how much more intense the series’ battles are about to get.

Shaun of The Dead is clawing its way back into theaters this fall.

It has been 20 years since Edgar Wright kicked off his (Three Flavours) Cornetto Trilogy with Shaun of the Dead, and to celebrate the film’s legacy, a remastered cut of it is being re-released in US and UK theaters beginning August 29th and September 27th, respectively.

Joker: Folie À Deux will have its musical day in court.

Joker: Folie à Deux’s first teaser didn’t feature nearly enough singing from either Joaquin Phoenix or Lady Gaga. But the film’s new trailer features a promising snippet of the clown prince humming a tune and seemingly starting a revolution as he makes his way to stand trial in Gotham.
