Secret Wars in Marvel Future Fight

Netmarble Games' Marvel Future Fight brings "Secret Wars" in the new update of one of the anticipated games in smartphones. With the said update some players are quite happy and some are not.

They added 3 new playable characters that came from secret wars series " A-Force". Nico Minoru/ Sister Grimm, She-Hulk and Singularity. They also added new uniforms from different Secret Wars series like Symbiote Spider-man, 1602 Angela, 1872 Bullseye, Maestro, Hala Field uniform of Captain Marvel, Groot from Thors, Marvel Zombies Venom. Some of the uniforms are not yet available in the shop yet you can have a preview of the alternate costumes of kingpin, captain america, iron man and black widow.

Battleworld

In order to feel the secret wars in the game they also included "Battleworld" in which you will select 5 heroes and fight with other players. You can get biometrics if you manage to be part of the rankings. The requirements to participate in the battleworld changes every 2 days I think? They also included comic book covers to collect via dimension rift and gain rewards.

TBH the update is not quite good for me despite the added features. One reason some players don't like it because of the changes in the villain siege specifically in the chaos and honor token shops wherein only hulk and captain marvel are the heroes you can buy for 500 tokens with 3 biometrics. Then the other heroes are now in the chaos or honor chest. It is now more cheaper but you randomly get 1-3 biometrics for 165. Maybe I was just satisfied with the previous update (Antman update) that's why it didn't meet my expectations but I'm still playing the game and hope we could get a much cooler update once Captain America: Civil War hit the theaters.

The Minds behind Inside Out

Have you ever imagined what’s happening inside your mind? Well let’s not talk about the emotions and tackle what’s in the inside of the one of the most anticipated animated movies of the year, Inside out. The press conference was held at Makati Shangri-La Hotel and hosted by Issa Litton. The program started with a short introduction from Amit Malhotra, General Manager, Studio Entertainment, The Walt Disney Company, and Southeast Asia. He said that he wants to bring the Disney/ Pixar fans closer to the movies by doing such events in order for them to get a once in a lifetime experience to meet the creative minds behind Inside Out. Director Pete Docter together with his Pinoy Co-director Ronnie Del Carmen entered the scene with a short flashy dance moves that made us laugh. They had a short talk regarding their trip and they said for the past 12 hours all they did was eating. This is also a homecoming for Del Carmen who’s been away in the Philippines for almost 30 years. Then the program continued with questions from various networks and bloggers. 

The concept of the movie came from Pete as he wonder his own daughter, Ellie, who goes to a lot of changes as she faces life. The movie took for almost 5 years to finish and Docter’s daughter is 16 now, admitted that she likes the movie. They even called the experts like psychologists for them to understand what emotions are. It was said that they had to narrow down the emotions from 27 up to 5, Joy, Sadness, Fear, Disgust and Anger that is present in the movie. It wasn’t hard for them to direct the movie because of the team who gave their best to finish the work. Del Carmen also said that there are many pinoys who also works at pixar “Pixnoy” as he called it. He gave an inspiring message for the Filipino artists to go beyond their limits, finish what they started, share what you do and ask for feedbacks which will help you develop into much better person. 

The last question we heard is about the theory that all Pixar characters co-exist in one universe which is also the question I would like to ask them and their answer was, “No”. They don’t believe that characters co-exist in one universe although they have some easter eggs present in all movies but the theory of co-existing was never a part of their intentions when making a movie. But who knows we might see it if Pixar wants it. Docter and Del Carmen are also present in the invite only red carpet premiere, August 7 at IMAX SM Aura in Taguig. It is the only time that the movie will be shown in IMAX here in the Philippines. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to attend the red carpet due to work but I’m happy enough to see the creative masterminds of the movie. Inside Out will hit the theatres on August 19. 

PS 

I would like to see the DC Universe’s emotional spectrum in this movie. JK
