I’m so excited about these new editions of Stephen King’s books! *The Long Walk* came out in hardcover on October 7th for $29, and *The Running Man* just released in hardcover today, October 14th. It seems like the new movies are the reason for these re-releases, which is awesome. *The Long Walk* is finally getting its first movie adaptation – it’s in theaters now! – and the second adaptation of *The Running Man* comes out November 14th. Usually, King’s books go from hardcover to paperback when the movie comes out, but these two are a little different. They skipped that usual process and went straight to new hardcover editions, which is really cool for collectors like me!

As a huge fan, it’s incredible to hear that the Borderlands franchise is likely to surpass 100 million copies sold with the release of Borderlands 4! That’s a massive achievement.

It sounds like they’re really just beginning, and I, for one, can’t wait to see what they do next!
In June, it was revealed that Candace Cameron Bure’s popular *Haul Out the Holly* movie series will take a spooky turn this year with *Haul Out the Halloween*.

This represents a shift for Bure, who has starred in over 40 films for the network, most of which have been Christmas-themed. The *Mean Girls* actress shared with People how she felt about tackling a different holiday.
I was reading an interview with Wilmer Valderrama, and he’s teasing a huge scene that fans are going to absolutely love! He was talking about Nick and Jessica’s relationship, and it sounds like things are… complicated. He described it as messy, but with a lot going on beneath the surface. Apparently, they’re really digging into the characters’ humanity and all the workplace drama, which he says is always fun to watch. He’s leaving us hanging, but it sounds like things are going to get interesting!
The studio also shared a short teaser on social media hinting at a crossover event. It looks like players can expect to see Ginger and Gust from My Time at Portia as guest characters when the full game is released.
Musk’s praise of Bitcoin comes after a few years of being silent on the cryptocurrency. This is quite notable considering that the industry is recovering from a recent bloodbath triggered by the US-China trade war, which is about as exciting as watching paint dry… but with more economic jargon. 💸
