Video Available on Our Site - ⁠GeekCypha.com

Description: GeekCypha 451 is officially here, and the culture is celebrating historic wins this week. We are covering the incredible Oscar night for Sinners, breaking down the well-deserved hardware for Ryan Coogler, Autumn Durald Arkpaw, and Michael B. Jordan—alongside the fallout as Lore'l’s viral criticism of MBJ made the rounds yet again. But that wasn’t the only win, as we highlight the NFB’s 12th Oscar for The Girl Who Cried Pearls. From there, we look ahead to Aldis Hodge’s return in Cross Season 3 and wrap our minds around the news that Michaela Coel is adapting Bloodsport for A24. The news cycle has been chaotic, from Sarah Michelle Gellar naming names about the dead Buffy reboot and Val Kilmer acting from beyond, to Jon Bernthal’s unparalleled anti-nap energy. Finally, we weigh in on the Spider-Man: Brand New Day trailer, the Dune: Part Three teaser, and the essential Invincible comic issues you need to read before Season 4.

GeekCypha 449 Wayans, Thumb Bulls and Brown Lanterns | Geek News

Video Available on Our Site - ⁠GeekCypha.com

Description: This week on GeekCypha, we unpack a treasure trove of pop culture developments that have fans buzzing. The return of the Wayans family behind the wheel of the Scary Movie franchise is exciting, while Jonathan Majors surprises everyone with his involvement in a Ben Shapiro project—definitely a talking point! Meanwhile, we celebrate Babou Ceesay’s casting as Ser Bennis of the Brown Shield, adding depth to the ever-expanding Game of Thrones universe. With a Game of Thrones movie on the horizon from an Andor writer, we ponder whether it’s truly necessary, and Sony's decision to halt major PlayStation releases on PC leaves us questioning the fate of Xbox. As Max Landis attempts a comeback with a new G.I. Joe movie, we can’t help but reflect on his #MeToo accusations and wonder why he's even allowed back at the table. Our take on the Lanterns trailer raises eyebrows, especially regarding Hal Jordan’s questionable brown suit and the absence of an iconic aura during his flight. Plus, Mike shares the intriguing "Rat Frog Thumb Bull" theory that’s got us all wondering where we fit.
