As a lifelong Star Wars fan, I’m really excited about The Mandalorian and Grogu hitting theaters – it’s the first big screen adventure since The Rise of Skywalker back in 2019. There’s a lot riding on this movie, and honestly, on Star Wars: Starfighter too. If these don’t perform well, it might be a very long time before we see another Star Wars film, or maybe never. But the trailer gave me something extra to cheer about: it looks like they’re bringing back a real focus on alien characters, which has been missing a bit lately. That’s a huge part of what made Star Wars special to begin with, and I’m thrilled to see it returning!

Tom Hagen, the trusted advisor to the Corleone family and adopted son of Vito Corleone, was a smart and driven man who played a key role in all their business dealings. He earned the respect of everyone, even the family heads, and delivered some of the most famous and meaningful lines in the entire series. One particular line, delivered quietly during the film’s famous opening, revealed just how much Vito valued family more than anything else.

The series Vigilantes is rare because it’s officially part of the My Hero Academia story, with the original creator, Horikoshi, overseeing every chapter. While it eventually connects to Izuku Midoriya’s story, Vigilantes mainly focuses on a completely new group of characters, alongside some familiar faces from My Hero Academia.

In the thriller The Gates, three friends on a road trip accidentally witness a murder in a gated community. When the residents become wary of them, the friends find themselves fighting for their lives as a powerful and popular church leader, played by Van Der Beek, begins to pursue them, believing they know too much about the crime.

When people debate the greatest athletes of all time, championships are often the most important thing they look at. That’s why Michael Jordan is so widely considered the best basketball player ever – he won six championships and never lost in the NBA Finals. Now, players like LeBron James and Stephen Curry are trying to win even more championships to challenge Jordan’s legacy.

Marvel Studios kicked off Phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2023 with Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, hoping to make a big impact. The movie pitted Ant-Man against the formidable Kang the Conqueror, and marketing suggested the highest stakes yet for the characters. However, the final film didn’t quite deliver on that promise. Instead of consistent tension, the movie was filled with jokes and awkward moments, culminating in a somewhat anticlimactic victory where Kang was defeated by an army of ants.

I was really bummed out, honestly, when I heard Kathleen Kennedy – the former head of Lucasfilm – talk about her disappointment with some projects. She basically admitted that a lot of work we – Adam Driver and I, along with Rebecca Blunt – put in for two and a half years ended up going nowhere. It felt like a lot of effort for nothing, you know?

The popular comedy Scrubs is returning to ABC on February 25th! Zach Braff and Donald Faison reprise their roles as J.D. and Turk, who are back at Sacred Heart Hospital after a long break. While medicine and the hospital staff have evolved, their close friendship remains as strong as ever. Expect the same blend of humor and heartwarming moments as they adjust to the changes.

This film isn’t just a look back at a defining moment in history, it’s also about the early careers of two rising stars. Actors often get stuck playing the same types of roles, and Heroes gave Harrison Ford and Henry Winkler a chance to challenge themselves and try something different. Though the movie’s plot might not be what people remember, it’s still a significant film in both of their careers.
