Could The Simpsons potentially crossover with Marvel? One executive producer says they might travel from Springfield to Wakanda!
“Ever since Disney bought 20th Century Fox, The Simpsons has been the smiling face of that monopolistic corporate synergy. The long-running series was a key Disney+ offering at launch — despite some questionable cropping — and we’ve already seen at least one member of the Simpsons clan interact with the Star Wars universe. So will the Simpsons make a trip to the Marvel Cinematic Universe next? According to Simpsons co-executive producer Michael Price, it’s very possible.”

“Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is making use of the new PS5 and Xbox Series X/S hardware to create a more lush, organic-feeling world that you can quickly fly around in, its developers said in a new interview today.

Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Michael Myers returns from the flames in the new trailer for the latest installment in the Halloween franchise.
“At the end of the 2018 Halloween, which acts as a direct sequel to the 1978 original, it would appear that Michael Myers has been consumed by flame. But even at the time, co-writer Danny McBride wasn’t really hiding the fact that The Shape, of course, wasn’t really dead. In the new trailer for Halloween Kills, the sequel to that sequel once again directed by David Gordon Green, we see exactly how he survived.
