Amazon MGM Studios and Sony Pictures Television are so confident in their upcoming "God of War" adaptation that they’ve already ordered two seasons.

But their initial marketing push has drawn sharp criticism from the man who created the video game franchise.

'It's just a dumb f**king image.'

Bathroom break

Last week, Amazon unveiled the first image of Kratos — the Spartan warrior at the center of the massively popular games. In it, Kratos crouches in the woods, leaning on his haunches as he watches his son Atreus draw an arrow.

The photo was meant to stoke excitement for the live-action take on one of gaming’s most iconic characters.

For God of War creator David Jaffe, however, it caused an entirely different reaction.

“Could you find a picture that doesn’t look like he’s s***ting in the woods?" asked Jaffe. "Because that’s what the picture looks like.”

Potty mouth

Jaffe made the comments in a video posted to his YouTube channel. In the clip, he says he's "a little worried" about the first impression the show was making. "What the f**k is this?” he said. “It’s just a dumb f**king image.”

While Jaffe stressed that he was still confident in the show's creative team — saying he had “absolutely no doubt it is going to be a good show" — he refused to soften his stance on the squatting Spartan.

“Two things can be true [at once]," he said. "This can be a terrible image — and it is. It’s so bad in so many ways.”

Flush with success

God of War is not the first of Jaffe’s properties to make the jump to television. Paramount+ recently renewed its "Twisted Metal" adaptation for a third season. As co-creator of the game (with Scott Campbell), Jaffe directed four Twisted Metal games between 1995 and 2012.

Amazon has increasingly bet on video game adaptations in the streaming arms race. That strategy has delivered at least one breakout hit — "Fallout" — while several other high-profile projects remain in development.

Since the commencement of Operation Epic Fury, six United States service members have been killed in the Middle East. Four of the six have now been identified.

On Tuesday, the Department of War released the identities of four Army Reserve soldiers who died on Sunday in support of the operation against Iran.

'We will remember their names, their service, and their sacrifice.'

The soldiers died in Kuwait at the Port of Shuaiba during an unmanned aircraft system attack, according to the U.S. Army's press release. All four were assigned to the 103rd Sustainment Command, Des Moines, Iowa.

The deceased were identified as: Capt. Cody Khork, 35, of Lakeland, Florida; Sgt. 1st Class Nicole Amor, 39, of White Bear Lake, Minnesota; Sgt. 1st Class Noah Tietjens, 42, of Bellevue, Nebraska; and Sgt. Declan Coady, 20, of Des Moines, Iowa.

“We honor our fallen Heroes, who served fearlessly and selflessly in defense of our nation. Their sacrifice, and the sacrifices of their families, will never be forgotten,” said Lt. Gen. Robert Harter, chief of Army Reserve and commanding general U.S. Army Reserve Command.

“On behalf of the Army Reserve, we express our heartfelt condolences to their families and loved ones. We remain steadfast in our commitment to honoring the legacy of our fallen and supporting their teammates and families during this difficult time,” said Harter.

“Our nation is kept safe by folks like these — brave men and women who put it all on the line every single day. They represent the heart of America. We will remember their names, their service, and their sacrifice," said Maj. Gen. Todd Erskine, commanding general, 79th Theater Sustainment Command.

ABC News reported that the other two service members' identities are being withheld until after next of kin have been notified. They were reportedly killed in the same strike. Eighteen others were reportedly injured in the strike as well.

The incident is currently under investigation.

Capt. Cody Khork, a resident of Lakeland, Fla., enlisted as a 13P, Multiple Launch Rocket System/fire direction specialist in the National Guard in 2009. He commissioned as a military police officer in the Army Reserve in 2014. He deployed to Saudi Arabia in 2018; Guantanamo Bay, Cuba in 2021; and Poland in 2024. U.S. Army

On Tuesday at a press conference held at the Sugar Hill Children's Museum of Art & Storytelling, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) covered the advancement of the universal child care program 2-K.

The conference was opened by a lesbian mother and member of New Yorkers United for Childcare, who said, “We want to stay in New York City, and 2-K will make the difference. We want to raise our kids in a city that looks like us, that has the values that we share.” She emphasized, “We see diversity as the greatest strength of New York City”

'We're just getting started!'

Mamdani thanked Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) for her foundational role in the program’s progress.

The program will provide free child care for 2-year-olds in New York City to any family, regardless of "immigration status," a press release from Mamdani's office said.

Taxpayers will reportedly fork out more than $36,000 per tot for Mamdani’s free 2-K pilot program, which is around $13,000 more than the average cost of private child care, city officials acknowledged Tuesday.

Earlier this year, Hochul committed more than $1.2 billion to support early childhood care and education in New York City, including $73 million to fund the first set of free 2-K seats. That investment will grow to $425 million next year. By fall 2027, 2-K is expected to serve approximately 12,000 children across all five boroughs, with the goal of reaching every 2-year-old in the city at full implementation.

The governor evinced excitement about the advancement of 2-K.

“2-K is coming, NYC! Proud to work with @NYCMayor to make this a reality. And we're just getting started!” Hochul said on X.

Critics warn of the gates that could be unlocked to fraud. Nick Sortor reposted a video on X criticizing Mamdani, which accumulated over 1 million views.

“This is going to be freaking LOADED with fraud,” Sortor said. “REFUSE TO SEND FEDERAL DOLLARS, 47! We do NOT want to fund Mamdani’s fraud!”.

However, Mamdani shows no signs of slowing down. “This is just the beginning. Universal child care is within reach — and we're making it happen,” he said.

A World Series champion looks primed to become a member a Congress from Texas.

With popular Republican Rep. Chip Roy running for state attorney general, Texas' 21st Congressional District is open for a new candidate to take what could be a long and pivotal role within the Republican Party.

'This is a huge victory.'

Generational talent and Maryland native Mark Teixeira on Tuesday took home the Republican bid for the district, which encompasses northwest San Antonio.

According to KTBC, Teixeira was the only candidate to receive more than 9,000 votes, collecting almost 58,000, or 61%, among a large field of GOP hopefuls.

The 45-year-old benefited from a massive endorsement last week, though, when President Trump called Teixeira a "TOTAL WINNER, on and off the field."

"Mark has a great wife, Leigh, and three beautiful children," Trump wrote on Truth Social, before promoting some of the former ballplayer's platform.

"Cut Taxes and Regulations, Promote MADE IN THE U.S.A., Unleash American Energy DOMINANCE, Keep our Border SECURE, [and] Stop Migrant Crime" were just some of the agenda items the president listed.

"This is a huge victory, and I’m truly honored to have such strong support from the people of TX-21. Thank you!" Teixeira wrote on X after his win.

"My amazing family has been by my side every step of the way. ... We're going to run a strong race and win big in November, then hit the ground running to fight for Texas families."

The Texas district has been run by Republicans since 1979, with only three different representatives over that 47-year span: Tom Loeffler (1979-1987), Lamar Smith (1987-2019), and Roy (2019-2026).

Republicans have historically dominated the vote, too, and while the gap narrowed between 2018 and 2020, Roy increased his margin of victory each time he ran.

After winning by about 3% of the vote in 2018, he expanded that gap to about seven points in 2020. In 2022, he won by more than 25 points (+84,000 votes) and by almost 26 points in 2024 (+110,000 votes).

Teixeira, a first baseman, entered the major leagues with the Texas Rangers in 2003 and finished with the New York Yankees in 2016. Upon joining the Yankees in 2009, he signed a massive $180 million contract. His tenure with the team was plagued by injuries.

Teixeira was a three-time All-Star, a five-time Gold Glove Award winner, and a World Series champion in 2009.

Rep. Roy is now in a runoff after coming in second place with 32% of the vote in the Republican primary for Texas attorney general. He will go head-to-head against Mayes Middleton — who had 39% of the vote — in May, since neither won a majority.
