The 13th Warrior: Antonio Banderas Bomb Becomes Prime Video Hit

by

I’m a big fan of The 13th Warrior! It’s based on the old story of Beowulf, but it’s not a straight retelling.

by

Fame can sometimes limit an actor, forcing them into roles they can’t escape. But James Van Der Beek, who recently passed away at 48, wasn’t that type of performer.

He openly acknowledged how huge Dawson’s Creek became and didn’t mind poking fun at its overwhelming presence in pop culture, even if it meant playfully diminishing his own image.

by

The quarrel between Coinbase and the Nevada Gaming Control Board (NGCB) has become a spectacle worthy of the finest theaters, revealing the growing frictions between federal oversight of our beloved crypto and state gambling laws.

by

Stella Montis is the opposite of expansive. This map is small and features a maze of narrow corridors with very little room to move. Though the automated robots (ARC) aren’t as prevalent here, you can expect plenty of player activity.
