Ill Nino
Over a year ago the band was dealing with a split, and as is the way when bands split, there was a debate as to who could keep the name. Well yesterday they finally came to a conclusion. The name goes in favor of the drummer and bass player, Dave Chavarri and Laz Pina respectively. The other 3 original members will be forced to change the name of their project going forward.

Rumor Mill


Star Trek
2 rumors (one of which I refuse to consider anything but, because of its source) about new shows coming from CBS, said to be landing on CBS All Access. The first is Star Trek: Pike, with Anson Mount returning to the role of the titular captain. The second being a massive crossover series that will involve all 4 All Access series, Picard, Discovery, Picard, and the STILL RUMORED Section 31.

MK 11
Data mined information seems to be pointing to KP2. It looks like Sheeva, Ash, Stryker, Takeda, and “ROB” are getting early data plants in the code. People are thinking that “ROB” is implying Robocop… but let’s think about this a little more logically. There are 2 missing robot characters in this game that are in the story mode. Ed Boon said that there will never be a guest character in the story mode that is not ALSO playable in the game eventually. So this more likely is implying that Sektor and Cyrax will again be a single character.

Flashpoint
Rumor is that WB is going to use Flashpoint to course correct A LOT! Man of Steel, BvS, Justice League, all wiped from canon, and the death of Black Mask too. 

Ghost Rider
Keanu Reeves rumored to be playing Johnny Blaze…

Titans season 3
Could a casting call be teasing Tim Drake Robin?
"Danny" is "a youth who grew up on the wrong side of the tracks but never lost his belief in heroism. His laid-back persona is balanced by a near genius intellect. He has innate detective skills with a perception of details that is way beyond his years. Despite his tough upbringing, he's motivated by the opportunity to do good in the world instead of dwelling in the pain and tragedy."
