• Daily Deals: Get Two 4K UHD Blu-rays for £24 in this Early Black Friday Offer

    You can currently get two 4K Blu-rays from Amazon for just £24, with an amazing selection of films available in the offer, including Marvel films, Star Wars, X-Men, Disney classics, and more.

    In other deals news with November finally here, Black Friday season is upon us. Black Friday deals will likely be situated near the end of the month, but we'll be seeing a few early deals start to come out very soon. Keep an eye on our Best Black Friday Deals in the UK page for more info.

    TL;DR – Best Deals

    Two 4K Marvel, Star Wars, or Disney Films for £24

    Yeah, I know you can get most of these on your Disney+ subscription, but there's something beautiful about owning a 4K Blu-ray, especially for your favourite films. Logan, for example, includes Logan Noir in 4K, a Black and White enhancement of the original. I love this film, and it's definitely worth owning it in 4K UHD.

    Our Favourite Films Included in the Deal

    TCL 43-Inch 4K Smart TV for £279.99 (was £329)

    NordVPN down to £2.44/Month (72% Off)

    PS5 and PS4 Games on Sale with Code FESTIVE15

    PS4 Games

    Xbox Games on Sale + Xbox Series S just £237.99

    Buy Two Portal Devices and Get £100 Off Your Purchase

    Portal devices are all about immersive video calling, including Smart Camera tracking that will keep you on screen and in focus throughout a video call. It works with most video calling apps such as Zoom, and you can use it to call others who don't have a Portal device as well.

    Buying two of these is the perfect Christmas present in my opinion, as you can gift a Portal device to a relative or a friend, and instantly connect with them whenever you need to.

    Deathloop (PS5) Now £34.99 with Code GAMENEXTDAY

    PS5 DualSense Midnight Black Controller down to £51.95 (was £60)

    Ava DuVernay Has Hinted That Zack Snyder’s Justice League Is Why New Gods Was Cancelled

    Ava DuVernay, who was set to direct DC's New Gods and write the script alongside Rebirth-era Batman comics writer Tom King, has strongly hinted that Zack Snyder's Justice League was to blame for the film not making it to theaters.

    DuVernay, who also directed Selma and A Wrinkle In Time, was speaking to Andy Cohen on his SiriusXM show when she shared a bit about New Gods cancellation, her experience with DC, and getting the freedom to pick the story she wanted to tell.

    "You know, my overall deal was at Warner Brothers and DC is at Warner Brothers," DuVernay said. "So, once I got to Warner Brothers, I was like, 'I'm going in that vault and I'm looking at what y'all got.' And I loved New Gods, which is the project that got axed. The studio decided that they did not want to pursue a certain part of that comic world, based on some things that were going on with another film in that world.

    "So, before I even was able to kind of complete my script with Tom King, they axed it. But I had already two projects going: Naomi, which will be on The CW next year, and DMZ, which will be on HBO Max next year."

    While she didn't name it specifically, the film she was referring to was most likely Zack Snyder's Justice League, as it was being worked on during the time New Gods would have been and both films have one very big connection – Darkseid.

    Darkseid himself is a New God and was the ruler of Apokolips who became obsessed with the Anti-Life Equation. Darkseid was teased in both Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and 2017's Justice League, but he made his big-screen debut in Zack Snyder's Justice League. It appears DC did not want both Snyder's story and DuVernay's crossing over, so New Gods was shelved.

    This outcome was hinted at when it was reported that New Gods was cancelled, as "DC Films reportedly felt there wouldn’t be enough space between Justice League and New Gods, which also planned to feature Darkseid as a central antagonist."

    Despite New Gods being frozen for now, DC Films and WB are leaving the door open for its return. Furthermore, DC Films and WB have said, were it to go forward again, the project will "remain in their skillful hands if they were to move forward in the future."

    LEGO Super Mario Luigi’s Mansion Sets Announced as a Halloween Treat

    Nintendo and LEGO have teamed up once again to offer fans three new spooky LEGO sets based on Luigi's Mansion.

    These three Luigi's Mansion LEGO sets – Luigi's Mansion Lab and Poltergust Expansion Set, Luigi's Mansion Entryway Expansion Set, and Luigi's Mansion Haunt-and-Seek Expansion Set – will all be available on January 1, 2022 and will feature other such characters as King Boo, Polterpup, Bogmire, Toad, Professor E. Gadd, and Boo.

    These sets do not include LEGO Luigi or LEGO Mario, and those interactive figures will need to be purchased as part of the Starter Courses.

    The LEGO Super Mario Luigi's Mansion Lab and Poltergust Expansion Set will cost $24.99 USD and will include the iconic Poltergust that Luigi can wield and attach either a normal nozzle or the Strobulb accessory. By pressing a button on the Poltergust, Luigi can catch a Gold Ghost and "collect a coin reward from the machine in the lab."

    The LEGO Super Mario Luigi's Mansion Entryway Expansion Set will cost $39.99 and lets you "maneuver your way into the frightful mansion, where you'll need to find a creative way to defeat Bogmire." You can also search for the Golden Bone for Polterpup and run into Boo.

    Lastly, the LEGO Super Mario Luigi's Mansion Haunt-and-Seek Expansion Set will cost $79.99 USD and will let players "create a gem-hunting, ghost-battling level with rotating hallways to explore." There are hidden gems to be discovered, and builders will be able to connect all of the three new sets together.
