The latest issue of Fantastic Four (#10, from Ryan North, Humberto Ramos, and team) shows the heroes battling an alien invasion in New York City.

Some storylines in The X-Files seem silly at first, but the show is often funny and self-aware. Other episodes are surprisingly profound and even heartbreaking. Many of the episodes that made The X-Files a beloved classic were written by Vince Gilligan, and watching the series now, you can often see how those episodes foreshadowed ideas in his later work.
Since the 1970s, a new Star Trek movie has come out every ten years. The 1980s and 1990s were particularly successful for the film series.

What really sets Edgar Wright apart for me is how effortlessly he mixes different genres. It’s clear he gets film, truly understands all its little pieces and possibilities. Like a lot of directors I admire, he’s always been open about the movies that shaped him, the ones that fuel his own creativity. Even if a particular film didn’t have a direct impact on one of his projects, it clearly played a part in igniting his passion for cinema in the first place.
The first season of Beef on Netflix starred Steven Yeun and Ali Wong in a story about a conflict that began with a road rage incident. The show explored their personal struggles and the escalating feud, but also delved into their emotional lives, offering a surprisingly relatable and satisfying experience.

Although J.R.R. Tolkien’s world of Middle-earth doesn’t immediately seem suited for video games, several successful titles prove otherwise.

Viggo Mortensen is widely known for his role as Aragorn in The Lord of the Rings trilogy – The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King.
