On this week's new episode of LHGO, we delve into the one thing that Hollywood has so far failed to crack - turning successful video games into successful movies. From the lows of Super Mario Bros and Street Fighter to the recent relative highs of Sonic the Hedgehog and Tomb Raider, we get up close and personal with some of the worst movies ever made and ponder why they might not work in the same way comics do.
In addition, we have news about The Return of the Rocketeer, the trailer for The Matrix Resurrections and we review Aliens: Fire Team, Worth and The Strain.
