Before the Academy Awards are handed out this coming weekend, Everything Action is handing out our annual Kick Ass Awards, celebrating the best and worst of 2021 with awards like Ass Kicker of the Year and the Kick-Ass Movie of the Year. Check out the full list of winners and losers.

Halloween 1-5 are out this week in Collector’s Edition 4Ks this week along with Season 1 Part 1 of The Nevers, the first (and final) season of Clarice, Paramount+’s new The Stand, Castle Rock The Complete Series, a new 4K Universal Monsters collection and more.

It was a lackluster and underperforming weekend at the box office with M. Night Shyamalan’s Old taking the top spot, topping its release competitor Snake Eyes, but neither of those new films hit expectations while movies like Space Jam: A New Legacy, saw massive dropoffs compared to last weekend.

This week on the Everything Actioncast podcast, Zach and Chris talk about the latest epic trailer for Dune, the return of Dead Space, The Last of Us TV show, a bunch of DC casting news, Space Jam: A New Legacy, Wellington PD, Close Enough, Black Widow and more.

With Black Widow suffering the biggest drop-off between opening and second weekend in MCU history, Space Jam: A New Legacy was able to take the top spot at the box office over this past weekend.

25 years after the original Space Jam became a favorite of 90s kids everywhere, Space Jam is back with A New Legacy as Lebron James teams with the Looney Tunes to win a basketball game against an evil Warner Bros AI called Al G. Rhythm, who has taken Lebron and his son Dom captive in the digital “WB Serververse” where all WB IP resides.

It’s another jam-packed weekend at theaters and at home with Space Jam: A New Legacy on the big screen or on HBO Max, Gunpowder Milkshake and Fear Street 1666 on Netflix, Escape Room: Tournament of Champions, Pig, and more.

Transformers is bringing Beast Wars to the big screen in the next movie in the franchise, Space Jam: A New Legacy is getting a video game tie-in, Dolph Lundgren and Frank Grillo are teaming up for a new World War II action movie, Disney is developing a new Tower of Terror movie, AMC is making an Interview With The Vampire series and more in this week’s News Shotgun.
