Key Preview Takeaways:
We’re about six months out from Final Fantasy VII Revelation, and while that doesn’t seem like a huge wait, the anticipation to play the final chapter of the FF7 remake is palpable, especially since the first chapter dropped six(!) years ago now. We’ve also had the chance to go hands-on with Revelation before, and while the first couple previews were focused on flying around the open world in the Highwind, I got to play a much more linear slice at New York Comic Con.
During a Friday screening of NAZA at Laemmle NoHo 7 in North Hollywood, dozens of Israeli-Americans and members of the Jewish community protested outside the theater.
The documentary is from Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, who previously said in a statement that they “made this film out of a sense of obligation to use our position as Israelis to examine the systems behind the mass killing of Palestinian civilians for which our country is responsible.”
Blumhouse Atomic Monster revealed at New York Comic Con that it inked a deal with horror content creator Heidi Wong. Under the deal, Wong will create original horror shorts for the studio.
There's a lot to be excited about at this year's NYCC, not least of which being the first trailer for Mike Flanagan's The Exorcist: Martyrs.

You've seen one dong, you've seen 'em all
Image: Rockstar GamesMore GTA 6 leaks are spilling out, despite Rockstar's best efforts, and one of the bigger ones seems to be Jason's penis. Well, I haven't seen the video as it's been taken down, so I don't know how big that particular leak is. But the context around it all has me more than a little disappointed, if these reports are indeed representative of what will be in the full release. Sure, Jason and his partner-in-crime (and sometimes life) Lucia are hot. But there's little value or excitement in just running around naked all the time, for no reason and with apparently no reaction from anyone else.
The influence of Dungeon Crawler Carl has officially reached the animal kingdom. The Oregon Coast Aquarium just welcomed a new giant Pacific Octopus and named it after a certain changeling that fans of the series will recognize: Juicebox.

An idyllic art-school romance is a delight until history comes crashing in
Image: Netflix/WITAt first glance, Netflix’s anime series Love Through a Prism looks like comfort viewing: a lush period romance bathed in warm light, filled with gentle but confident performances and sweeping vistas that feel almost indulgent.
