Drop Nineteens’ initial run may have only lasted four years, but the shoegaze pioneers’ 1992 debut album Delaware is widely considered one of the genre’s defining records. Now after 30 years away, they’re returning with their new album Hard Light on November 3rd on Wharf Cat Records. The lead single “Scapa Flow” is out now, and they’ve also announced some 2023 tour dates to celebrate their comeback.
By the time Drop Nineteens first disbanded, they’d already become massively successful. Lead singer and songwriter Greg Ackell was happy to go out on a high note and leave the music world on good terms, but probably didn’t anticipate the staying power Delaware would soon have in the indie rock sphere — thank goodness he kept his guitar around.
“The intent on Delaware was to reflect that time in our lives, which I think it did accurately,” Ackell explains in a statement.

Tears of the Kingdom gives Link so many more tools than he had in Breath of the Wild, but the paraglider remains an essential asset. That’s why it’s so strange that you don’t start the game with it. After all, Breath of the Wild‘s opening hours were practically a paraglider playground.
Well, it turns out that the paraglider is in Tears of the Kingdom. You’re just going to have to work a little harder to acquire it.
In Tears of the Kingdom, you acquire the paraglider from a character named Purah. To find Purah, you’ll need to first complete the opening tutorial area. This is the area located beneath the Great Sky Island. It’s relatively short, and it should lead you into the greater Hyrule Field area.
Once you’re able to explore the world a bit, look for a place called Lookout Landing on your map.

Lookout Point has begun shooting Season 2 of Suranne Jones’ BBC/HBO period drama Gentleman Jack amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Season 2 will again use the real-life diaries of Anne Lister as its source, with writer Sally Wainwright basing the series in historical fact and the five million words Lister wrote in her journals.
Production is taking place in Yorkshire, England, under local coronavirus safety protocols, with series regulars including Gemma Whelan, Gemma Jones and Timothy West returning. Joanna Scanlan (No Offence) will join Season 2 in the role of Lister’s outrageous former lover Isabella ‘Tib’ Norcliffe.
“I’ve been in a little bit of heaven once again spending so much time deep in Anne’s diaries as I’ve written the scripts, and can’t wait to see the fabulous, joyous magic and detail that Suranne and Sophie will bring to it all,” said Wainwright.
Executive producers are Wainwright, Jones, Faith Penhale,...

Marvel Studios nailed it when they cast Chris Evans as Steve Rogers/Captain America. His performance radiates wholesomeness, determination and bravery while never feeling smarmy. But while Evans is obviously the most recognizable Cap, a few other actors have taken on the role over the years. Matt Salinger (the son of The Catcher in the Rye author J.D. Salinger!) played the part in the terrible 1990 movie and there’s also a 1944 serial based on the character.
But now we know that an unlikely person once stepped into the costume as well: Star Trek: The Next Generation‘s Commander Riker, Jonathan Frakes. The actor, who has since gone on to direct multiple episodes of Star Trek and the movies First Contact and Insurrection, recently returned to the role of Will Riker in Star Trek: Picard and directed two outings of the show as well.
So, how did he end up as Captain America?...

“Time to Hunt,” the Korean action thriller that had its world premiere last month as a gala screening at the Berlin Film Festival, has given up its theatrical release plans. Instead, it will be released by streaming giant Netflix in mid-April.
The move has not sat easily with Contents Panda, the Korean sales company which had pre-sold the film to more than 30 overseas distributors. “Contents Panda will take legal action with (producer) Little Big Pictures to minimize the international damage that will be caused by this case,” Contents Panda said in a statement sent to Variety.
The film was directed by Yoon Sung-hyun (“Bleak Night”) and tells a revenge tale of four no-hopers in a dystopian near future who pick the wrong target to rob. It pulls together a cast of rising star youngsters including Lee Je-hoon, Ahn Jae-hong, Choi Woo-shik, Park Jeong-min and Park Hae-soo.

In a dark, shuttered South Korea devoid of people after a financial apocalypse, a naïve young gang knocks off an underworld gambling den and becomes the target of an implacable killer. Young writer-helmer Yoon Sung-hyun, whose 2011 coming-of-age drama Bleak Night won multiple best new director awards and heralded him as a leader of the next generation of South Korean filmmakers, fulfills that promise nine years later in the nerve-jangling Time to Hunt (Sa-nyang-eui-si-gan).
