Good news for Dragon Ball Z fans! A popular MegaHouse figure of Son Goku, originally released in 2010, is being re-released, according to a recent post from the industry news and fan site Catsuka. It’s called the “Desktop Real McCoy Dragon Ball Z Son Goku 01 -Limited Reprint Edition-.”
Season 2 of Percy Jackson & The Olympians will introduce ‘The Great Prophecy,’ a key storyline from the first five books by Rick Riordan. However, the show will make some changes as it adapts the story for television.
As a huge fantasy fan, I’ve noticed the really great series don’t just copy what’s been done before – they either bring something totally new to the table or they take an old idea and make it feel fresh and exciting. Everyone talks about the big hits, and rightly so, but shows like Penny Dreadful and even Merlin have quietly had a huge impact too. It’s not about being the most popular; a fantasy show can really shake things up if it can prove to its viewers that it offers something truly unique, something you can’t find anywhere else.
Paramount+ has ordered a final, six-episode season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, which will begin airing after the premiere of season 3 in June 2025. Filming for season 4 was completed in mid-2025, and it’s scheduled to launch on Paramount+ in 2026, followed by season 5 in 2027.
This format let creators build stories with more emotional impact, a faster pace, and richer themes than were often possible on traditional TV. As high-quality TV became more popular, miniseries also appealed to film actors looking for meaningful roles beyond big-budget franchises. Because they have a set number of episodes, miniseries offer complete storylines and creative control, making them particularly attractive to actors used to working on films.
While fans of The Hunger Games were thrilled to learn Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson will reprise their roles as Katniss and Peeta in Sunrise on the Reaping, some were disappointed the news leaked before the official announcement. Their appearance in the book’s final scene was meant to be a surprise! However, this could be a good strategy for the series, potentially helping the new movie avoid the issues faced by The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.
Things get intense quickly when Percy has a dream that his friend Grover has been captured by the Cyclops Polyphemus. Shortly after, Percy, Annabeth, and Tyson see Luke—the troublemaker who stole Zeus’s lightning bolt last season—poison the magical tree that protects their camp. As the tree begins to die and Luke remains free, Percy and Annabeth realize they have to go on another quest: to find the Golden Fleece, the only thing that can save the tree. While these events largely follow the plot of Rick Riordan’s book, The Sea of Monsters, a frustrating storytelling choice from the first season has reappeared, and it’s just as confusing and unwelcome as before.
This week, Firstman discussed his show, I Love LA, in an interview with Vulture. The conversation shifted when he was asked about the series Heated Rivalry, and he didn’t hesitate to share his strong opinions. Firstman criticized the show’s depiction of gay relationships, pointing out what he saw as inaccuracies. He specifically compared the show’s sex scenes to real-life intimacy, finding the portrayal unrealistic and unconvincing.
I was completely captivated by Game of Thrones – it really became HBO’s biggest hit, and for good reason. What struck me most was how it threw out the usual storytelling rules. Forget clear-cut heroes! The show dove headfirst into complex characters and morally ambiguous situations, which made everything so much more compelling. It constantly surprised me – just when you thought someone was safe, they could be gone. That created this incredible sense of tension and danger, where power, betrayal, and simply surviving were the things that truly mattered, not some predictable hero’s journey.
Each film in the Knives Out series centers around a murder mystery, with detective Benoit Blanc teaming up with one of the suspects to solve the crime. Like many mysteries, the films feature a cast of famous actors, and some viewers have pointed out that several of these actors also appear in Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) films. The latest installment, Wake Up Dead Man, continues the trend of casting MCU stars as the murderers in these whodunits.
