S1 Ep. 21- John Wick 3

Welcome back to Thrak Attack! What's your adventure? This week's adventures took us to a lot of news a movie I wasn't intending on seeing but I did so it should be a pretty simple and easy week! So let's get started with some news first! NEWS! -Avengers: Endgame passes Avatar at the box office as the highest grossing film of all time. This does not surprise me and I'm so excited that it did! -PS5 Specs announced, I am expecting more information around the time of E3 which I will try my best to do at reviewing.

Pokemon Cinematic Universe

Welcome back to Thrak Attack! What's your adventure? This week's adventure was Detective Pikachu which is an awesome live action Pokemon Movie but not the Pokemon we were expecting. Even though this movie was really well done, I believe there in the future for us in regards to another cinematic universe. The way they handled this film and the references in it are perfectly done and do set up a future for this for happening. SPOILER WARNING for Detective Pikachu, if you have not seen this please, go watch the film and then come on back! Alright let's get started with the film we received this past weekend. Pokemon: Detective Pikachu is a mystery film taking place in the Pokemon World based on a video game of the same name. Tim Goodman meets a talking Pikachu after his father mysteriously passes away. Throughout the film we realize that it is actually his father trapped inside Pikachu's body although none of the characters know this until the end. The villain's plan...

It's been a heck of a week for Thrak Attack so let's get it started! NEWS! -Sony had another Playstation State of Play which showcased a few new games that all looked somewhat interesting. Here's what they revealed...        -Predator: Hunting Grounds (this looks like a variation on the battle royale)        -Medieval is launching October 25th (this looks fun but not for me)        -Final Fantasy VII: Remake (This looks amazing but I need to play through the Switch version)        -Away (looks like an awesome and inventive game)        -Riverbond (looks super weird and totally not for me)        -Monster Hunter World: Iceborne is a massive DLC ...

This week on Thrak Attack I finally got around to playing my new video game Days Gone for the PS4, we have a few bits of news, and a trailer review. It's not going to be a big week but it'll be a nice pallet cleanser after last week's huge amount of content! So with all of that out of the way, let's get started! NEWS! -Pokemon Go finally gets roaming legendaries in the wild with the Generation 4 lake trio! -Tool finally launches their music on Spotify and Apple Music -Peter Mayhew who famously played Chewbacca passes away at 74. He will be missed. -Avengers: Endgame hits the $2 Billion dollar mark worldwide and is on track to beat Avatar as the highest grossing film of all time! Trailers! Sonic the Hedgehog debuted on the Sega Genesis in 1991 and is finally getting his own live action movie adaptation and it looks atrocious! The acting looks bad, sonic's design looks bad, the plot looks generic and i...
