I have to say, this new show is a breath of fresh air. Instead of all the darkness and gloom of Gotham, it really focuses on the people inside Wayne Manor – Bruce Wayne’s family, and how they all interact. And you know what? The first episode finally explained why Bruce is suddenly sporting a beard! It was such a simple explanation, but honestly, it totally worked and made sense. It’s a nice change of pace to see that side of things.

The final episode of Mr. Robot, released on December 22, 2019, is often ranked as one of the show’s greatest. It received a 9.8/10 rating on IMDb, and the fourth and final season earned high praise overall, with a 98% approval rating from critics and a 94% rating from viewers on Rotten Tomatoes.

I really enjoy ‘Wednesday’ and Jenna Ortega, but honestly, I’m more excited about the possibility of LEGO sets based on the show than I am for season three.

As a critic who watched a lot of TV in the ’80s, I remember so many promising shows just disappearing because they happened to go up against already popular series on other networks. It was brutal! But it wasn’t just the competition. These days, we expect to binge-watch a lot of shows to really get into them, but back then, that wasn’t possible. If you missed an episode of something new, it was tough to catch up, and often, the show was just gone before you had a chance.

The movie Osiris received generally negative reviews after its limited release in theaters and on streaming platforms. While critics gave it a 50% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, audiences agreed with the same score. However, despite the mixed reception, Osiris has become a popular hit with Hulu subscribers, proving there’s an appetite for its intense, alien-focused story.

After initially failing at the box office 20 years ago, The Brothers Grimm is now a huge hit on Netflix. Currently, it’s the eighth most popular movie on the streaming platform worldwide. The 2005 film, directed by Terry Gilliam and starring Heath Ledger, Matt Damon, Peter Stormare, Monica Bellucci, Lena Headey, and Jonathan Pryce, seemed like a sure thing. However, both viewers and critics weren’t captivated by its unique take on the classic Grimm’s fairytales.

During a discussion about Sinners at Deadline‘s Contenders Film event, Ryan Coogler revealed that the character of Remmick, an Irish vampire played by Jack O’Connell, was inspired by the Disney Channel movie The Luck of the Irish. Coogler said watching the 2001 film helped him recognize similarities between Irish and Black cultures, particularly in their musical traditions, and it served as an important reference point while creating Sinners. You can find his full remarks below.

Taylor Sheridan’s new show, Landman, boasts a stellar cast, headlined by Billy Bob Thornton. Demi Moore has an expanded role in the second season, and the show also features Ali Larter, Andy Garcia, and familiar faces from Sheridan’s other series, including Sam Elliott and Michelle Randolph (from 1883 and 1923, respectively). I recently spoke with co-creator Christian Wallace and asked him which actor from another Sheridan show he’d like to see join the Landman cast. Here’s what he said:

Details about The Batman Part II are scarce, given its projected release date of 2027. There’s a lot of excitement building for the sequel, and also for a potential Clayface movie written by Mike Flanagan. Flanagan, known for Midnight Mass, recently spoke at Motor City Comic Con (according to ScreenRant) about the possibility of Matt Reeves’ Batman films becoming officially connected to the larger DC Universe. He shared his thoughts on how that might happen, saying:

The Game Awards 2025 is facing criticism because some highly anticipated games weren’t nominated. With so many excellent games released this year, competition was incredibly fierce, and unfortunately, not every deserving title could be recognized, leading to disappointment among fans.
