Netflix’s Marvel Series Are Moving to Disney+
Fans of Netflix’s Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, The Punisher, Iron Fist, and The Defenders will will no longer be able to stream on the platform after March 1st. Deadline reports that Netflix’s license for their slew of Marvel series is ending, reverting the rights over to Marvel’s parent company, Disney.

In 2022, the world needs heroes, and DC Films is here to deliver. For the first time since it was launched nine years ago, the DC Extended Universe will see four different tentpole films released this year. In a new ad created for Super Bowl weekend, DC is showing off all these projects with new looks at The Flash, Black Adam, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, and The Batman. While there’s not a ton of fresh footage from The Batman (why would there be, with numerous trailers already released?), we do get a few new teases from The Flash. Mostly, it’s a closer look at Barry Allen’s (Ezra Miller) new suit, which includes some handy eye protection. The biggest reveals come from the Black Adam footage. We get to see far more of star Dwayne Johnson in action than s...

In a new interview with Rocking With Jam Man, former MEGADETH guitarist Chris Poland was asked if he thinks “it’s fair” that David Ellefson was fired from the band last year following a sex video scandal. He responded (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “Not really, no. I don’t. Considering if it was, like, the ’80s, they would have applauded Dave for what happened. It’s the cancel culture thing. But you know what? Dave‘s [Mustaine, MEGADETH leader] a, he’s a Christian now. Maybe he just didn’t feel right about it. I don’t know. Dave Ellefson‘s a Christian too. It’s kind of, like, you’re supposed to forgive and forget, and I guess he just couldn’t. But that’s his business.” Chris added: ...
