What drew you to the exquisite corpse method as a structural framework—and how did it shape your writing process across collaborators?2. You've said before that horror lets you explore personal fears in metaphorical ways—what fear sits at the heart of Exquisite Corpses for you personally?3. This project is filled with shifting tones and visual voices—how did you maintain thematic cohesion across multiple artists and chapters?4. You've tackled horror through multiple lenses—from psychological horror in The Nice House on the Lake to body horror in Something is Killing the Children. Where does Exquisite Corpses fall on your personal horror spectrum?5. You've spoken about burnout and choosing joy in your writing—did this collaborative process reawaken anything in you creatively?6. There's a class warfare element baked into the DNA of Exquisite Corpses. How important was it for you to make that commentary explicit rather than just subtext?7. You're known for big ideas in genre fiction. Was there ever a version of Exquisite Corpses that could've been a prose project or TV pitch—or was comics always the only way this could work?8.

Here we take a good look at that most critical piece of the game, the Encounter Sets.

In aflevering 202 van Nerd Culture duiken de heren weer diep in de krochten van het internet om jou het laatste nieuws te brengen. Van West Fantasy tot Daredevil en van Severance tot Snow White's historische IMDb-flop. Ook bespreken we de opvallendste trailers, castingnieuws, grote Marvel-updates omtrent Avengers: Doomsday én de terugkeer van Kevin Smith bij Marvel. Een bomvolle aflevering vol meningen, nieuws en geeky enthousiasme!Marvel kondigt reuze cast aan voor Avengers DoomsdayMarvel heeft een gigantische cast van 27 acteurs onthuld voor Avengers: Doomsday, waaronder Chris Hemsworth als Thor, Pedro Pascal als Mister Fantastic en Robert Downey Jr. als Doctor Doom. Toch ontbreken nog opvallende namen zoals Spider-Man, Hulk, Doctor Strange en Scarlet Witch. Zowel Marvel als Downey Jr. hinten op extra cast-onthullingen, mogelijk tijdens Comic-Con deze zomer. Volgens The Hollywood Reporter is Marvel nog niet klaar met aankondigingen. De Russo-broers keren terug als regisseurs en noemen de film “een nieuw begin” voor het MCU. Avengers: Doomsday verschijnt op 1 mei 2026, gevolgd door Secret Wars in 2027.Doomsday is stiekem Avengers vs X-Men?Mogelijk is het plot gelekt voor Avengers: Doomsday, en als het klopt, belooft Marvel een gigantisch multiversum-spektakel. Volgens de leak draait het verhaal om de “Final Incursion”, waarbij Earth-616 botst met een X-Men-universum. Dit leidt tot een epische oorlog tussen de Avengers en de X-Men, waarbij ook Deadpool, Wolverine, Monica Rambeau en The Leader een grote rol spelen. Doctor Doom blijkt de grote antagonist en voert oorlog tegen de TVA, wat een Multiversal War ontketent. Hulk zou het opnemen tegen Wolverine, terwijl Ms. Marvel haar eigen team vormt. Spider-Man wil zich afzijdig houden, maar wordt toch betrokken—en krijgt mogelijk een zwart-wit Symbiote-pak. De Fantastic Four zitten nog op hun eigen aarde, en Doctor Strange en Clea duiken op in Doom's verhaallijn. Loki speelt opnieuw een mysterieuze rol. Hoewel veel personages nog niet officieel zijn bevestigd, lijkt Marvel iets groots te plannen.Snow White heeft laagste rating op IMDB ooitDisney's live-action Snow White is een van de laagst gewaardeerde films ooit op IMDb, met een score van 1.9 uit 10 na 79.000 beoordelingen. De film met Rachel Zegler en Gal Gadot kreeg al sinds de aankondiging in 2021 kritiek, onder andere van Peter Dinklage vanwege het gebruik van CGI in plaats van acteurs met dwerggroei. Controverses rond Zeglers afkomst en politieke standpunten, evenals haar en Gadots verschillende meningen over het Israël-Hamasconflict, droegen bij aan de negatieve ontvangst. Ondanks de backlash haalde de film wereldwijd $87,3 miljoen op in het openingsweekend, minder dan de verwachte $100 miljoen, bij een geschat budget tot $270 miljoen.Timestamps:00:00:00 Intro00:01:54 Wat hebben we gekeken/gelezen/geluisterd?00:02:22 Daredevil00:10:31 West Fantasy00:17:58 Een avontuur van Condor: De Gijzelaar00:27:01 Fight or Flight Trailer00:30:49 Snow White heeft laagste IMDB score ooit00:34:07 Rachel Zegler onder de bus gegooid00:38:07 Lord of the Rings Studio Ghibli style00:43:35 Nick Frost in beeld om Hagrid te spelen in Harry Potter00:45:16 Severance seizoen 3 bevestigd, we hoeven dit keer niet zo lang te wachten00:46:30 One Battle After Another Trailer00:49:24 Marvel maakt cast van Avengers: Doomsday bekend en teased meer00:59:14 X-Men vs Avengers en Dr. Doom vs TVA in Avengers Doomsday 01:12:07 Chad Stahelski de nieuwe regisseur voor Blade?01:14:10 Een eerste blik op Marvel's Ironheart01:15:13 Kevin Smith keert terug bij Marvel voor Spider-Man en Fantastic Four01:16:42 The Mandalorian & Grogu goedkoopste Star Wars project onder Disney01:20:00 Final Destination Bloodlines Trailer

Twenty-six cast members were announced painstakingly slowly and wordlessly, via the backs of chairs and it all ended with Robert Downey, Jr. himself strolling in and shushing the viewer.  Also in an interview this week, Scarlet Witch herself, Elizabeth Olsen, claims Wanda will not be returning for either of these Avengers films.Amy Pascal and David Heyman have officially been named as producers on the next James Bond film, according to a Variety article from Tuesday. Pascal is known for her work at Sony and continues to work with Phil Lord and Christopher Miller on different projects such as Spider-Man: Noir. Heyman's name ought to be familiar to Harry Potter fans as he produced all eight of the original films and is also in pre-production on the new series. Though it took first place this weekend, the $43 million domestic opening of Disney's live action remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is a box office failure. Along with dismal revenue for the controversy-embroiled film, it has received an overall CinemaScore of B+ - something no Disney live action remake has done yet. Robert DeNiro's Alto Knights also debuted to disappointing figures and the Jonathan Majors-led Magazine Dreams only cracked $700,000 in its limited release.Apple's streaming service had a huge win after finishing the second season of Severance last week when the show became the most-streamed series on AppleTV+, surpassing Ted Lasso. Severance hit the Nielsen streaming report for five consecutive weeks, clocking in with 681 million minutes viewed. Apple CEO Tim Cook quickly gave the show the greenlight for a third season last Friday morning. On the heels of this news, it may be surprising - or not - to hear that Apple loses $1 billion a year on the streaming service and only has 45 million subscribers. But based on what the tech giant has said in the past, this may not matter.Speaking at Disney's annual shareholder meeting, Bob Iger confirmed that Pixar is developing a sequel film to Coco with a targeted theatrical release date sometime in 2029.

He will play John Stewart's father, John Senior. J. Alphonse Nicholson was also cast last week in the series and will play a younger version of John Senior.Agency Verve, which has represented the rights for the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise since 2017, is reportedly looking to sell the rights to revive the franchise. A rumored interested party, according to Deadline, is filmmaker JT Mollner and producer Roy Lee and if they get a script together, word is that Glen Powell would like to read it. A24, Lionsgate and others are reportedly expressing interest in that vision. Mollner and Lee are currently coming off the heels of cult hit Strange Darling.Two-time Oscar winner Christoph Waltz and two time Oscar winner Renee Zellweger have joined Only Murders in the Building Season 5.

Elizabeth Olsen has confirmed she will not appear in Avengers: Doomsday or Secret Wars, stating she's focusing on non-Marvel projects like the upcoming FX drama Seven Sisters. Despite fan hopes for Scarlet Witch's return after Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Agatha All Along, Olsen says she won't be involved in the upcoming Avengers films. While some speculate this could be a misdirect, her comments make a comeback unlikely for now. Marvel Studios continues to build toward its Phase 6 climax, with major characters like Doctor Doom, Doctor Strange, and Captain America expected to lead the next Avengers lineup.Sources: The Hollywood Reporter, Marvel Studios, Disney+, FX, IGN, Entertainment Weekly.
