    Spider-Man: Brand New Day - Non Spoiler Movie Reaction & Review

    Danny Peña and Parris Lilly give their spoiler-free reactions live from The Grove in Los Angeles right after seeing Spider-Man: Brand New Day! From Jackie Chan’s stunt team handling the ground-breaking fight choreography to the incredible dynamic between Tom Holland and Jon Bernthal’s Punisher, we break down why this street-level, adult Peter Parker story might just be the best live-action Spider-Man film ever made. Thanks to Sony Pictures for inviting us to the screening Episode Highlights "Best Live-Action Spider-Man Ever": Both hosts agree that Brand New Day tops all previous films—even surpassing Spider-Man 2. Next-Level Stunt & Web-Slinging Action: Coordinated by Jackie Chan's stunt team, the film features peak street-level combat, practical effects, and dynamic first-person POV swinging. The Return of Frank Castle (The Punisher): Outstanding banter and genuine chemistry between Tom Holland and his co-star, keeping the core character intact without losing his edge. Sadie Sink & Bruce Banner: Sadie Sink shines as a breakout star in her MCU debut, alongside key appearances by Bruce Banner / The Hulk. A True Street-Level MCU Era: Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, the story embraces an adult, independent Peter Parker operating in New York without Tony Stark or Doctor Strange holding his hand.

    MARVEL TŌKON: FIGHTING SOULS Interview with Mara Junot

    This week on Gamertag Radio. Meet Mara Junot, the iconic voice behind Storm in Marvel’s Fighting Souls. From radio DJ to superhero legend, Mara reveals how she's breaking barriers for diversity in gaming. Dive behind the scenes as she shares audition secrets, balancing hero vs. villain roles, and essential advice for aspiring voice actors. Key Takeaways & Highlights Secret Auditions: Voice actors frequently receive audition scripts under code names and vague descriptions, requiring intuition to figure out the exact character. Heroes vs. Villains: Mara finds heroes trickier to voice because they undergo complex internal journeys, whereas villains usually have clearer motivations and immediate conflicts. Radio DJ Background: Working as a radio DJ for nearly eight years taught Mara essential mic techniques, commercial recording skills, and natural delivery before she transitioned into video game voice acting. Industry Advice: For newcomers entering a crowded market, success requires patience, deep research into demos and agencies, continuous training, and networking.

    Is Halo: Campaign Evolved Worth It?

    The Gamertag Radio crew reviews Halo Campaign Evolved! Danny, Parris, and Riana break down the Unreal Engine 5 visuals, modern mechanics like sprint, and the brand new bonus prequel missions featuring Sergeant Johnson. Plus, they share platform performance details and discuss what this means for the future of Halo. Episode Highlights Visuals & Engine: Built in Unreal Engine 5 (4K, 60+ FPS) featuring improved visuals, richer sound, and added environmental details like wildlife. Modern Mechanics: Adds sprint, clamber, ground pounds, vehicle hijacking, and improved enemy AI. Rebalanced Arsenal: Weapons feel refreshed; the Needler and Needle Rifle are far more effective, while the iconic pistol remains strong. Bonus Prequel Levels: Set one year before the main story, these new missions omit Cortana, feature Sergeant Johnson, and support chaotic four-player co-op. Performance: Plays great on PC and ROG Ally X, but performance is poor on the original white ROG Ally. No Microtransactions: All cosmetics, such as alternate Master Chief skins, are earned strictly through gameplay.

    Spider-Man Brand New Day Press Conference

    This week on Gamertag Radio, Last week, Sony Pictures invited me to the Spider-Man: Brand New Day press conference with the cast and filmmakers. Truly grateful for the opportunity. Tom Holland Zendaya Jacob Batalon Sadie Sink Jon Bernthal Director Destin Daniel Cretton Producer Kevin Feige Producer Amy Pascal Here are some of the quotes from the press conference: Tom Holland on Peter's isolation: "Sometimes the bravest thing that you can do is ask for help. And he is actively ignoring that advice, and it is having a profound effect on his life..." Tom Holland on Sadie Sink: "..For me, I think Sadie is an unsung hero because she can't talk about anything, right?" Zendaya on the MJ/Peter dynamic shift: "In previous films MJ was always the pessimist and it was Peter that was always the optimist... Now that he's alone, he's kind of adopted that negativity and she's adopted his positivity without even knowing it." Jon Bernthal on protecting the Punisher: "I think what we set out to do is to make it believable that the Punisher could walk out of one of those TV-MA shows and onto this set and vice versa." Amy Pascal on the true essence of Spider-Man: "...when he is sitting on the floor by the washing machine... looking at the key to the city, which is the thing that's supposed to make him feel good about himself, and this little washing machine in this little apartment and his suit in there spinning around, I thought that is the essence of Spider-Man." Thanks once again to Sony Pictures for giving me the opportunity. I can't wait to check out the film!
