This Week in Geek, June 22nd
In Disney news, Disney and Pixar’s film Luca was released on Disney+. Taking place alongside the gorgeous Italian Riviera, this film is a coming-of-age treasure. Luca (voice of Jacob Tremblay) shares adventures of gelato, scooters, and pasta with his newfound best friend, Alberto (voice of Jack Dylan Grazer).
Loki on Disney+ is now two episodes in, and the internet has exploded with theories. Are you subscribed to theories, or are you in it for the ride to see where the show takes us next? The end of episode two has led fans to dive into who this “variant” actually is.
Comic book fans, rejoice! IDW released a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic titled “The Last Ronin.” Long-time fans have quite literally grown up with the Ninja Turtles as they are no longer teenagers, either. Pick up these issues at your local comic book shop.
It is time to countdown to the newest film in the Fast and the Furious franchise, F9. If you like fast cars that do impossible things, then this is probably the film for you! F9 sees the return of Justin Lin as director, who helmed the third, fourth, fifth and sixth chapters of the series when it transformed into a global blockbuster. F9 will be released in theaters on June 25th.
