Review of the Week

So despite the heatwave that the UK is getting, here's what's been happening this week:

Family Guy News - An Unexpected Crossover
That's right folks. Next Autumn, the biggest animated and adult humoured sitcoms Family Guy and the Simpsons, will be having a crossover episode titled "The Simpson Guy" (part of the Family Guy show, not The Simpsons). Now as we all know, the creators of both shows have hated each other for a very long time (and even the creators of South Park were annoyed. So annoyed that they even did a episode on the matter), but it seems that it may all change, for at least 22 minutes. So far, the story is that the Griffins travel to Springfeild and as predicted, the 2 families try to compare things like what is the best beer out of Duff and Pawtucket and a few others as well. Lets hope that it all works out.

Unfortunately that's really all that needed the most attention so here's my small wrap up of everything else. 3DS owners can enjoy a StreetPass enhancement in Nintendo Zone which will come very soon, Angry Birds Star Wars gets a console release and a sequel, DC Comics has been made a priority for Warner Bros current CEO who plans to release more films in the coming years including a Sandman one, a Justice League one and even an Aquaman one (additionally he said that the creators of the Wonder Woman film that they will eventually do, will need to be done right), UbiSoft still supporting Nintendo but won't be having a conference at Gamescom and Square Enix express concerns for the graphics side of things on PS4 and Xbox One.

And now, here are this week's film and video game releases:

Turbo (Various countries with more to follow. May review this film some day)

Movie Review - Inside Out 2
