On The Comic Section Podcast Issue #397, we kick things off on a somber note by paying tribute to four entertainers who left their mark across music, movies, television, and animation: Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, Peter Cullen, and Samuel Monroe Jr.
From Dolly Parton's legendary music and entertainment career, to Tim Curry's unforgettable performances, to Peter Cullen giving generations of fans the iconic voice of Optimus Prime, and Samuel Monroe Jr.'s memorable roles in films including Menace II Society and The Players Club, we take time to remember their contributions and legacies.
Then it's time to get into this week's headlines!
🐉 A $7 BILLION DRAGON BALL Z THEME PARK IS COMING?!
France and Saudi Arabia have agreed to develop a massive Dragon Ball-themed amusement park near Paris, with the project reportedly valued at approximately $7 billion.
The development is expected to become one of Europe's largest theme park projects and create thousands of jobs.
From Goku and Vegeta to potentially walking through locations inspired by the world of Dragon Ball, we discuss just how crazy—and potentially incredible—this project could become.
📺 APPLE TV JUST GOT MORE EXPENSIVE
Another streaming service price hike is here.
Apple TV has increased its U.S. subscription price to $14.99 per month, while its annual plan has jumped to $119.
With streaming services continuing to raise their prices, we ask the question: At what point does streaming become just as expensive as the cable packages everybody originally tried to escape?
👽 RIDLEY SCOTT ISN'T FINISHED WITH ALIEN: COVENANT
Nearly a decade after Alien: Covenant, Ridley Scott is developing another film that would continue the story of Michael Fassbender's David.
Scott wants to explore the dangerous possibilities of artificial intelligence through David's story as the rogue synthetic attempts to create his own new world.
But after Alien: Romulus and the franchise's other recent developments, is returning to the Prometheus/Covenant storyline the right move?
🐶 ANDRÉ 3000 JOINS SCOOBY-DOO!
André “3000” Benjamin and Cathy Moriarty have joined Netflix's upcoming live-action Scooby-Doo: Origins series in recurring roles.
The series reimagines Mystery Inc. during their younger years as Shaggy, Daphne, Velma, and Freddy investigate a mystery surrounding a lost Great Dane puppy who may have witnessed a supernatural murder.
And yes…that puppy is Scooby-Doo.
🍗 WE'RE GETTING A HOOTERS MOVIE?!
Because apparently every origin story deserves the Hollywood treatment.
A buddy-comedy/biopic inspired by the real-life creation of Hooters is officially in development.
The story follows two friends whose road trip eventually leads to the creation of the restaurant empire.
We're definitely going to have some questions about this one. 😂
