The episode also finally shows the two-pronged approach that Q is using in order to change the future....

The Bad Batch picks up right where they left things at the end of episode six, continuing to run intergalactic errands for Cid, but the bad payout and work conditions are secondary elements in a new outing that sees the gang meet another Clone Wars veteran and undergo some unplanned medical procedures that make for the show’s tensest episode so far. “Battle Scars” is a somewhat enigmatic title for what unfolds in episode seven, because unlike their past reunion with Cut Lawquane in episode two, there’s very little reminiscing of the past and how the fall of the Republic has reshaped the Star Wars universe....

After a couple of forgettable 1940s serials, Adam West made Batman a screen icon with his delightfully camp ‘60s TV series and its even zanier movie adaptation. Two decades after West lightened up the Dark Knight, Tim Burton imbued some much-needed darkness back into the character’s on-screen adventures. Burton’s groundbreaking 1989 movie didn’t just revitalize the Batman franchise; it revitalized the superhero genre as a whole. Michael Keaton’s dryly comic, relatably human portrayal of Bruce Wayne was nicely contrasted with Burton’s gloomy, gothic, heightened visual palette....

While the sports team app has revolutionised the way that grassroots teams are organised and how they communicate, it can become more of a hindrance than a help, especially for a working parent with multiple kids to marshal....

The popular Battle Royale game Fortnite continues to push forward with its new seasons and content on offer. Over the past year, the game has really started to lean on crossover events bringing in characters and franchises from other media to help it stand apart from competitors like Call of Duty: Warzone and Apex Legends. Companies like Disney have really helped Epic Games succeed in this plan, offering not only new skins of Marvel and Star Wars characters, but also taking part in limited time modes as well as seasons like a recent one where Galactus was planning to invade Fortnite....
