Breaking Down American Gods' Most Jaw-Dropping Moment

Full spoilers for American Gods' series premiere, "The Bone Orchard," continue below.

At the Hollywood premiere of American Gods, no one in the audience seemed to know what to do after Bisques' intense, glorious "Somewhere in America" vignette played in the middle of the episode.

Played by Yetide Badaki, the sequence shows the washed up, struggling African love goddess bring a man she met off a phone dating app into her room, have sex with him, and then slowly absorb him up into her through her vagina in a graphic, stylized sex scene. After a moment of silence following the scene's conclusion, slowly one person, and then many in the Cinerama Dome auditorium, started clapping and cheering at what they had just witnessed.

Seth Rogen Teases Movie About a Disastrous Music Festival

A new film project from Seth Rogen and The Lonely Island about a disastrous music festival is reportedly in the works.

In a post on Twitter, Seth Rogen announced he's working with The Lonely Island (the parody rap group comprised of Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone and Akiva Schaffer) on a movie with a plot very similar to what transpired on Friday at Fyre Festival. "This seems like a good time to mention the movie we are making with @thelonelyisland about a music festival that goes HORRIBLY WRONG," Rogen said.

Shortly thereafter, The Lonely Island retweeted Rogen's post, adding, "For real, thinking about suing #FyreFestival for stealing our idea."

Guardian 2’s End Credits Scenes Explained

The end of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 had big consequences and a whopping five post-credits scenes to set up what’s coming next. Let’s break down what it all means!

Full spoilers follow for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.

Peter Quill finally meets his father and it turns out ol’ dad is a Celestial space god (with a little “g”) named Ego, and the big twist is that Ego needs Peter to help him take over the universe and keep him company. Peter taps into the power passed on to him from Ego to brawl with his dad while the rest of the Guardians destroy the cosmic brain at the core of Ego’s planet. In the end, the Guardians succeed, but new member and surrogate father-figure Yondu sacrifices himself to save Peter. So basically, Peter met his biological father only to find out that the only dad he needed was there all along! Yondu’s heroic death also redeems him for breaking the Ravager code all those years before.

The Endangered TV Series List

In the next couple of weeks, we'll be getting final decisions on a ton of network TV series and discover what's been renewed and what's been cancelled. Some shows have already had that decision made -- whether the news was good or bad -- but for many others, it will come down to various factors as the networks order new series and decide what shows they want to keep on the schedule.

Below you'll find the list of shows whose fate is up in the air, while the other pages display the shows definitely not coming back next season, and those that are returning for sure.

Look for frequent updates to this page, as more shows have their fate decided.

Please keep in mind this list is for the broadcast network TV series only -- CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX and CW -- and doesn't apply to cable or streaming shows who don't follow the same September-May TV season and decision-making pattern.

Opinion: Secret Empire Is Good for Captain America

Secret Empire is turning out to be one of Marvel’s most controversial storylines in years. That’s to be expected when the core premise of a comic involves tarnishing the once sterling reputation of a 77-year-old icon. There are many fans who argue Secret Empire is a mistake - that Marvel is doing lasting damage to Steve Rogers for the sake of a short-term sales boost and a few newsworthy headlines. But that’s selling Secret Empire short. Controversial or not, this is a story that Captain America needs.

You can’t blame readers for being upset with this new turn of events. Steve Rogers is rather unique among Marvel’s heroes in the sense that he is (or was) such an unimpeachable figure. He’s one of the few heroes whose commitment never wavers. He’s not really prone to self-doubt or moments of personal weakness. He’s just a guy from Brooklyn utterly devoted to doing the right thing and protecting the innocent from bullies. Suggesting that Steve Rogers is actually a double-agent for one of the most nefarious organizations in the Marvel Universe seems like an extraordinary betrayal of one of the most fundamentally decent characters in pop culture.

That said, Coster-Waldau acknowledged "it's all out there... if you can find it."

Welcome to Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition. Lutes and Lyres was meant to be a one-off series, but is going to sprout into a regular adventure. The world is a homebrew and as such some of the races may be displayed differently than standard DnD. There are also a few homebrew rules, basically just trying to make it as fun as possible for the players. If you're curious, yes the dumb joke in the name is pretty simplistic.

A Roseanne Revival With the Original Cast is in the Works

Roseanne is primed to follow in the footsteps of One Day at a Time and Fuller House with a revival of its own.

According to Deadline, the classic sitcom is coming back in limited-series form, and it seems that all the key figures are returning as well.

As it currently stands, the Roseanne revival will last for eight episodes, at least initially. Roseanne Barr, John Goodman, and Sara Gilbert are all reportedly already signed on, and Laurie Metcalf and other actors from the original run are in the process of working out deals as well.

Multiple networks are currently bidding on the show. Naturally, Netflix has thrown its hat in the ring, but ABC, who aired the original Roseanne, is also hoping to bring the show back home.

The Best VPN for Gaming

Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) are an easy way to help hide your online activity from prying eyes, and though the technology has been around for a long time, it's received renewed interest lately thanks to recent legislation. But which VPN is the best for gaming? Or has servers in the most countries? And are VPNs safe? IGN has completed deep dive VPN reviews of five of the most popular services to help you figure out which VPN is right for you.

We wrote a beginner's guide to VPNs and why you should use one here, so go read that first if you're not up to speed. The short version? A VPN passes all your network traffic through its own encrypted connection no matter where you are, ensuring no one else, including your ISP, can see what you're doing online. There's a lot of nuance here - like whether the VPN itself is keeping a log of your activities - but that's the gist of it.

In an interview with GQ Magazine, the Aquaman star revealed that his character is still trying to become both a man and a full-fledged superhero in the film. Momoa noted that while Aquaman is coming to grips with the fact he's a "half-breed," he's also the "best of both worlds."

"He just doesn't know how to handle his powers," Momoa explained. "So it's kind of a coming of age for a young man to a man, or a man to a king. He's lost a lot of things and he's got to cope. He's an outsider."

Reggie Fils-Aime Reveals How Many NES Classic Editions Shipped to Retailers Worldwide

Following the NES Classic Edition's discontinuation earlier this month, Nintendo has revealed just how many units of the specialty hardware were shipped around the world.

Speaking to IGN, Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime revealed that Nintendo "sold in 2.3 million units" worldwide since the system's launch on November 11, 2016.

For those unfamiliar, "sell in" means units shipped to retailers to be sold through to consumers. In January, Nintendo revealed it had sold through 1.5 million NES Classic Edition units, which means at least 65 percent of that current worldwide shipped number was sold through as of February 1, 2017. Fils-Aime did not offer updated sold through numbers, however, but did say note the "NES Classic was originally planned to be a product for this past holiday."

Thor: Ragnarok's Hela Explained

Cate Blanchett is set to appear as the most alluring and menacing incarnation of Hela we’re ever likely to see when Thor: Ragnarok comes out on November 3, 2017. But who is Hela exactly?

Well, we could easily go down the Asgardian rabbit hole on a subject like this, since Hela is one of many characters based at least initially on a figure from Norse mythology. But here we’ll only deal with the Hela of the Marvel Comics Universe, and that takes us first to…

Hela is the Goddess of Death, ruler of the realms of Hel -- where the dead that fall in the middle ground between honor and dishonor dwell -- and Niflheim -- where those that are dishonored must go. An Asgardian with an often-complicated approach to a simple goal -- get as much power as you can as often as you can -- Hela has constantly crossed paths with Thor, his family and friends, and many other heroes of the Marvel Universe. As a cosmic being of great power, she is a formidable threat beyond that of a typical Earthbound entity, but her fortunes have nevertheless waxed and waned over time.

American Gods Explores Faith in the Age of iPhones

American Gods is a story that is massive in scope as it explores a war brewing between old gods and new for control of America, but it tells that story through a centralized focus: the journey of a recently released ex-con named Shadow Moon with a capricious, mysterious man named Mr. Wednesday.

The relationship between Shadow and Wednesday is at the core of Bryan Fuller and Michael Green's adaptation of Neil Gaiman's novel, which means there needed to be great chemistry between the two actors who play them. Fortunately sparks fly between Ricky Whittle and Ian McShane from the first moment they share screen time together in American Gods' pilot, and their dynamic is much of what makes the series so interesting. Make sure to read our full spoiler-free review of the series premiere.

After Hermione: The Recent Best of Emma Watson

Actress Emma Watson is having a big year. Hot on the heels of Disney's massively successful Beauty and the Beast remake, Watson's next starring role comes in The Circle. This time she plays a wide-eyed new recruit at a social media empire who discovers that her boss (Tom Hanks) may be hiding a few dark secrets.

Watson's success is all the more notable considering how rarely child stars are able to keep their careers going into adulthood. But Watson has managed to escape the shadow of Hermione Granger and the Harry Potter franchise. Join us as we beak down her key film roles in the years since Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.

While Watson has tended to focus more on smaller indie projects and dramatic roles, the fact that Beauty and the Beast just became the first movie of 2017 to cross the $1 billion mark shows that she hasn't lost that Harry Potter box office appeal.

Nintendo has revealed the New Nintendo 2DS XL, which will arrive in the US on July 28. The new system will have a recommended retail price of USD $150.

According to Nintendo the device should fill a hole between the existing Nintendo 2DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL systems, with a price and list of features that sits between both.

“This new addition to Nintendo’s portable hardware line demonstrates our commitment to the hand-held market,” said Nintendo of America President and COO Reggie Fils-Aime. “New Nintendo 2DS XL sports a beautiful clamshell design and offers a great balance between price and performance.”

The New Nintendo 2DS XL will boast a screen as large as the one on New Nintendo 3DS XL systems, though visuals will obviously only be displayed in 2D. Nintendo reports the system is lighter but still packs the same power as the New Nintendo 3DS XL.

"I genuinely can’t tell you anything other than Alden is magnificent, and it's a delight to do something on that level with really cool actors and nice people.

Star Wars: How the Jedi's Failings Might’ve Inspired Luke to End the Order

Recently, the world was gifted with the first teaser for Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and we all learned for the first time about Luke Skywalker’s newfound antipathy toward the Jedi Order with his line, “I only know one truth: It’s time for the Jedi to end.”

The internet has been abuzz ever since the trailer dropped, piling on theories about Luke’s statement, philosophical thinkpieces, speculation about the Gray Jedi and the Order of the Whills, and so much more. And we at IGN of course have our own take on Luke’s new outlook, so let’s delve a little deeper into some of the failures of the Jedi Order and the Old Republic which might be informing Luke’s philosophy -- the times those ancient organizations took a swing and missed. We’ll also take a look at the trajectory of these failings, leading up to Luke’s current status as a refugee from the battle between the Dark side of the Force, and the Light.

The Scariest $#!% in It

For over 30 years, Stephen King’s It has remained one of the most frightening novels that King has ever written. And it’s not just because we’re all afraid of clowns, although Pennywise definitely isn’t doing any favors for people with coulrophobia. Pennywise is more than just a clown or even a man. He, or It, is something far beyond human comprehension, and Pennywise has many different ways to strike at his victims. No matter how far away they run, Pennywise can always reach them. And he always comes back.

King’s story was adapted as a TV miniseries back in 1990, with Tim Curry in the leading role as Pennywise. Next fall, Bill Skarsgård will step into Pennywise’s creepy clown shoes in a new adaptation of Stephen King’s It. The upcoming movie will take place in the past, as a group of children calling themselves “the Losers” become aware of Pennywise and attempt to stop his reign of terror. The first trailer for the film looks like it may have captured the tone and menace of the original work.

Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite Feels the Influence of the MCU

Many themes run through Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite, but “partnership” is on point. Capcom is working closely with editors from Marvel Comics to form a world that truly feels like a combination of the best of both - for example, in Avengers Tower, instead of the infamous Jarvis, Tony Stark communes with a Dr. Light artificial intelligence.

Partnership extends beyond the story and sets and into the battles. Infinite pairs teams of two, a departure from the Versus tradition of three-person squads. In place of a third spandex-clad anchor, you take one of the six Infinity Stones into the fight. Each of the Stones gives your team access to all new attacks and effects, acting almost like the third member of your squad. The Infinity Stones give the ability to create space between you and an enemy, explore new combo options, increase your damage or speed, and more. For example, the Time gem allows your fighters to dash around the screen, coaxing mobility from even the slowest and most cumbersome of the cast, and when fully charged, it infuses your heroes with speed that bend the rules of what the mechanics allow. The versatility presented by the Stones means that gone are the days of ignoring characters that might be your favorites from comics or other games simply because they don’t synergize with your team or their weaknesses are hard to overcome. Now, choose two fighters you think are cool and get to work.

Nintendo's 'First Game Designer' Retires After 45 Years

Genyo Takeda, who is considered as Nintendo's "first game designer" has retired after 45 years working at the company.

Takeda was considered one of the company's foremost hardware experts - he designed the N64 analog stick, and was the lead designer on the Nintendo Wii, becoming a vocal supporter of Nintendo's philosophy that graphical improvements are not the key to next-generation hardware.

Genyo Takeda

In his earlier days, Takeda was the creator of Punch-Out!! and StarTropics, and in an Iwata Asks interview, Shigeru Miyamoto mentioned that Takeda was even making games at Nintendo before Gunpei Yokoi, who was involved with the Game & Watch, the Game Boy, the ROB, the NES robot, and Dr. Mario.

David Fincher Closing in on Directing World War Z Sequel

In a surprising development, David Fincher is reportedly closing in to direct the sequel to 2013's World War Z.

Variety reports that Paramount Pictures is not only moving ahead with the sequel, but that the Fight Club/Seven/Gone Girl director will likely take the reigns. Last year it was reported that the film's original (and returning) star Brad Pitt was pushing to get Fincher on board the project, and Variety's sources claim it's also Fincher's tight relationship with Paramount's new CEO Jim Gianopulos that's helped massage the collaboration into fruition.

The sequel's future has been unknown since director Juan Antonio Bayona dropped out of the project earlier last year, and Paramount pulled it from its planned June release. However if Brad Pitt and Fincher are a lock, there's a chance the flick may justify its existence.

The Walking Dead: Two New Characters Coming to Season 8

The Walking Dead Season 8 will reportedly feature two new characters.

TVLine reports the series is currently casting two recurring good guys - a paranoid but likable Muslim American named Abbud who's been surviving on his own, and Dillon, a sarcastic blue-collar twentysomething. It's reportedly looking likely that Dillon will show up in subsequent seasons. For now, there's no casting information or further details for either roles.

The Last Jedi's Rian Johnson Not Involved With Ep 9's Story

Star Wars: The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson has denied rumours of involvement in Episode 9's story.

Speaking to a fan on Twitter, Johnson said that the rumour he wrote a story treatment for Episode 9 "is old info."

"I haven't been involved in writing IX," wrote Johnson.

The rumour seemed to have stemmed from Johnson's Wikipedia page which cites reports from 2014.

Johnson recently discussed what Episode 8's title means, saying that, to him, "the last Jedi" is singular and refers to Luke Skywaker.

Atlus Apologizes, Updates Persona 5 Streaming Restrictions

Earlier this month Atlus released strict rules for streaming and posting late-game Persona 5 content, but now the developer is changing its limitations in response to fan criticism.

Atlus announced that players can now post and stream videos up until the in-game date of 11/19. Previously, players weren't supposed to post anything past 7/7.

"We also want to apologize to those of you who saw the previous guidelines blog post as threatening," Atlus said. "We want to be transparent about what we do, and the reason we released the guidelines was to give streamers the right information up front. It was never our intention to threaten people with copyright strikes, but we clearly chose the wrong tone for how to communicate this."

Wrestling: Bray Wyatt Should Be RAW's Top Good Guy

We're a week deep into the SuperStar Shakeup and it looks like the ointment is taking effect. There's a tingling happening. A noticeable new smoothness. We're seeing a handful of once-lesser Superstars really benefit from the the whole RAW/SmackDown switcheroo switchback.

The most notable, naturally, is Jinder Mahal, though I can't help but cringe at the fact that WWE's doing a whole "evil foreigner/xenophobia" angle in this particular political climate. Yes, this heel caricature has been a part of wrestling practically since its inception, but this isn't exactly the best time to dry hump that old chestnut. That being said, it's still technically appropriate to chant "USA!" when Jinder comes out because he's from Canada, though we know that's not why people are chanting it.

Disneyland Guardians Ride Offers Six Different Experiences

The Guardians of the Galaxy aren’t only returning to movie theaters soon via Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, they are making their theme park debut, with the opening of Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: Breakout at Disney California Adventure park at Disneyland Resort.

IGN took part in a walk through of the attraction building a few weeks before the attraction opens in late May, getting a look at the big Marvel inclusions you’ll find inside, the story being told, and the experience – or, in fact multiple experiences – you’ll find on the ride. And, of course, the songs you’ll hear...

The attraction's storyline finds the Guardians team captured by Tivan the Collector (Benicio del Toro, reprising his role from the films, along with the core Guardians movie cast), and an escaped Rocket attempting to bust them out. While you’re waiting in the queue for the attraction, you are passing through some of Tivan's vast collection and there is a ton of note for Marvel fans. During our tour, we saw display cases containing an Ultron drone from Avengers: Age of Ultron, Warlock’s Eye from Odin’s trophy room in the first Thor, a Dark Elf mask from Thor: The Dark World, and Terrigen crystals (and other Kree artifacts) from Marvel's Agents of SHIELD. There are also familiar elements from Guardians of the Galaxy, including a cocoon and Cosmo the dog (both seen in Tivan’s collection in the first Guardians), and a Nova Corps uniform. On top of that, there are brand new items created for the attraction, including some from Marvel comics that have yet to make it into the films.

Call of Duty: WWII Ditches Superheroes for Humanity and Horror

Call of Duty, and shooters in general, have slowly moved away from telling the stories of flawed, limited humans, instead focusing on giving players the power fantasy of embodying what amounts to a defacto superhero. Wall running, double jumping, future tech – these all work in harmony to give us an experience that’s fun, rather than one that bears any semblance to reality. But with Call of Duty: WWII, developer Sledgehammer Games wants to change that.

I spent the afternoon at Sledgehammer’s studio speaking with developers of every discipline, seeing a handful of different levels, and digging through the mission statement of Call of Duty: WWII. Here’s what I learned.
