After Walt Disney’s 1966 death, Walt Disney Productions went through a period of decline, with many of its releases getting beaten at the box office by Universal Pictures movies like The Land Before Time and An American Tale. The studio turned things around with the 1989 release of The Little Mermaid, kicking off a period of hits known as the Disney Renaissance, which included beloved films like Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King. The Rescuers Down Under, which was released in 1990 and celebrates its 25th anniversary on Nov. 16, is technically part of the Disney Renaissance,…

You can get Go Safari Balls as part of Pokémon Go “Wild Area: Global”, and can only be used during event hours. No, seriously — they disappear after the event ends. These balls are based off of the regular camouflaged-print Safari Balls from the mainline games. Usually, you can only use Safari Balls in the Safari Zone, a special area where wild Pokémon roam and you can’t actually battle them. You can throw treats and rocks at them to try to increase their catch rate, but ultimately, you just had to huck Safari Balls at them to catch some of…

The Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 campaign is one of the biggest steps backward I can recall seeing in Call of Duty. They’ve always varied in success, with some of the low points being Modern Warfare 3 and Black Ops 3, while personal highlights include Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, World at War, and Black Ops 6. The latter did some very interesting things mechanically, leading to a refreshing take on mission structures and what a Call of Duty campaign looks like, or needs to be. Unfortunately, Black Ops 7 takes all of those learnings, lines them up…
