As of January 21st, the award-winning show The White Lotus has become very popular on Apple TV+, ranking ninth among its top 10 series. While it’s behind other HBO hits like Game of Thrones, IT: Welcome to Derry, and Euphoria (which is currently number one), it still outperformed True Detective, which was in tenth place.
As a huge Tarantino fan, I think this is one of his best. It’s a really unique blend of genres – you’ve got Western vibes, a classic crime thriller feel, a ‘who done it?’ mystery, and it’s all set in a really cool historical period. And the cast? Seriously incredible. Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Walton Goggins, Tim Roth, and the late, great Michael Madsen – it’s a dream team, easily one of the best he’s ever assembled.
I first fell in love with Superman through the Justice League cartoon, and that led me to explore the comics. But everyone has their own way of discovering him! For a lot of people, it’s been through the movies – whether they grew up with Christopher Reeve or, like me, are excited about David Corenswet as the new Man of Steel. Just to show how long Superman’s been a part of our lives, here’s a list of every Superman movie ever made, organized by when they came out and the different eras they represent.
Wicked was the best-selling home video title overall, even when including DVD sales. It outperformed other popular releases like Jurassic World Rebirth, Superman, Venom: The Last Dance, and Thunderbolts.

Ultimately, Wicked was the clear winner across all major home media formats.
The 1998 erotic thriller Wild Things aimed to revitalize the genre with a complex and surprising story where alliances constantly changed. The film boldly lived up to its name, drawing viewers in with provocative trailers and featuring plenty of attractive actors.

It boasted a strong cast and left a lasting impression on audiences.
The Alamo Drafthouse has a loyal following because it strives to create a great moviegoing experience for everyone. They’re known for enforcing rules, like having policies about children attending mature films and asking patrons to silence their phones. Now, they’re updating how food orders are taken – moving away from the traditional pen-and-paper system to a new app. Actor Elijah Wood, who often shares his thoughts publicly, expressed his disappointment with this change on Twitter.
Artificial intelligence becoming conscious has long been a popular theme in science fiction. But the film Ex Machina tackles these ideas in a way that feels particularly relevant today.
I’m totally hooked on The Recruit – it’s exactly the kind of show I love to binge-watch! It’s got this amazing pace and keeps you guessing with all the twists and turns. It reminds me a lot of The Night Manager in that it throws you right into the thick of things from the start, and that’s why so many of us are already obsessed.
After leaving Bruce Wayne to operate independently in Bludhaven, Grayson took on the name Nightwing. He remains willing to help the BatFamily in Gotham whenever they need him, and Batman frequently calls on him for assistance. Many other heroes in the DC Universe, including the Titans, also recognize Nightwing’s skills and power, as demonstrated in various comics, movies, and TV appearances.
