Capcom’s Street Fighter series has been a consistent hit since the 1990s. The original Street Fighter 2 is a classic arcade game that people still enjoy, and Street Fighter 3: Third Strike is often called one of the greatest fighting games of all time. Overall, the Street Fighter games are consistently high-quality and rarely disappoint.
Alan Ritchson’s role in Reacher significantly boosted his profile, and it’s likely what led to him being cast in Titans, a show set within the DC Universe and now available on HBO Max. Titans, particularly thanks to Ritchson’s performance, is a very easy show to watch all the way through.
SkyDance and Paramount officially merged in the summer of 2025, though the process took longer than anticipated. New CEO David Ellison and his team immediately began working to turn the studio around. Following the disappointing performance of Star Trek Beyond, rumors about a fourth film circulated for years, but the actors themselves were often as much in the dark as the fans. Recently, Variety reported that the studio had decided to move away from continuing the story with the original Kelvin Timeline cast and instead focus on a completely new Star Trek movie. When J.J. Abrams first assembled this cast 15 years ago, they were already established stars, and their popularity has only grown since. The existing Star Trek trilogy was expensive to produce, and reuniting the cast for another film would be costly. Adding to the challenge, the 2016 death of Anton Yelchin, who played Pavel Chekov, presents a difficult situation. Filmmakers would have to decide whether to recast the role, which could be seen as insensitive, or address his passing by writing the character out of the story – a decision made more complicated by the ten years that have passed. While the Kelvin Timeline films were important and revived the Star Trek franchise, Paramount’s decision to pursue a fresh direction might ultimately be a positive step.
As a huge fan of Margaret Atwood’s novel, I was really excited to watch the Hulu series, and it definitely didn’t disappoint in terms of bringing her world to life. It’s a powerful show, but be warned – it tackles some really dark and upsetting themes. While it’s incredibly immersive, I did notice a few plot points that felt a little off or didn’t quite make sense when compared to the book and the overall narrative.
We’ve seen Marvel and DC dominate the superhero scene for years, but it’s great to see independent comics getting their due on screen too. Shows like The Boys and The Walking Dead prove there’s so much potential beyond the big two. But honestly, I’m most excited about a classic character who’s been missing in live-action for three decades – they’re finally making a comeback, and it feels huge!
The film subtly showed the passage of time and different periods in Michael Jackson’s life through visual changes. These included alterations to his facial features, depicted through surgical enhancements, and the gradual lightening of his skin tone as a result of his vitiligo. The movie begins with his early years in the Jackson 5 and culminates with his iconic 1988 performance at London’s Wembley Stadium during the Bad World Tour.
IGN just revealed the four villains who will appear in the upcoming Prime Video series Spider-Noir: Silvermane (played by Brendan Gleeson), Sandman (Jack Huston), Tombstone (Abraham Popoola), and Megawatt (Andrew Lewis Caldwell). You can watch a video showcasing them below.
Because the Force has always been a somewhat mysterious and undefined power, it’s hard to use it as the sole measure of strength. But as seen throughout Star Wars, a character’s abilities can come from many different places in that galaxy, not just the Force itself.
Based on the popular books by Lemony Snicket, A Series of Unfortunate Events aired from 2017 to 2019 and offers a uniquely dark and funny take on the classic orphan story. The show follows the unlucky Baudelaire children as they try to escape their villainous guardians – especially the scheming Count Olaf, played by Neil Patrick Harris – and survive in a world that seems determined to make their lives miserable. It’s a blend of spooky atmosphere and sharp, witty humor.
The show requires viewers to suspend disbelief, accepting unlikely coincidences and events that happen just a little too perfectly. While most of these plot conveniences are easy to miss when you’re caught up in the excitement, some become noticeable if you think about them too closely.
