I just saw Hope and... what a weird one 😅 It was what I was expecting until the third act, at which point it got progressively worse and went from monster movie to something else, and as ridiculous as an anime. However, I was thoroughly entertained throughout!

The Artbook Collector @theartbookguy.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Just got back from seeing Avengers: Endgame Encore! Is it worth the money for the extra scenes? Probably not. Is it worth it for the extra scenes and to see Endgame in the IMAX again? Definitely! I'd have seen it again on the biggest screen just as it was anyway.

I got a reply directly from the sales team who have said that more copies have been printed and are one the way from the East, with stock expected to be available in November. Despite Call of Duty's popularity, they thought the print run would last the year, not a few weeks!

Call of Duty Black Ops Zombies: The Art of Treyarch is a superb artbook, but it is sold out at all major retailers in the UK, as well as places in Europe. I reached out to Titan Books again for an update, but the lack of response is not a great sign that more stock is coming 🫤

Saw Resident Evil and thought it was great! It had jump scares, gore, creepy designs, and humour, all delivered really well. I also like that it ramped up like the games too, with fun easter eggs along the way. Well worth seeing if you can!
