This summer, Hulu is adding several original movies and shows, including titles like “Not Suitable for Work” and “Alice & Steve.” Over on Disney+, fans can finally stream “Avatar: Fire and Ash,” the newest film in the popular “Avatar” series.
Most Star Wars TV shows begin with the title “Star Wars,” so to avoid repeating it unnecessarily, we’ll leave that part out in this list. Many of these shows are surprisingly good, but weren’t widely seen until Disney+ brought them all together. Plus, with the Star Wars universe constantly growing, a lot of these shows are recent additions. Whether the quality is actually improving is a matter of opinion among fans.

In the 1990s, movies successfully drew audiences in with adaptations of popular novels and plays. Films like The Pelican Brief and The Rainmaker appealed to fans of John Grisham’s legal thrillers, while teen comedies like Clueless (based on Jane Austen’s Emma) and 10 Things I Hate About You (a modern take on Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew) attracted a younger crowd. This decade set the stage for today’s trend of adapting compelling stories from books into blockbuster films, especially intense legal dramas, nostalgic teen stories, and exciting action adventures. Books continue to be a major source of inspiration for filmmakers, and this was particularly true in the 1990s.

The sequel was a critical success and a strong contender for Game of the Year alongside Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.

As a huge Star Trek fan, I was really enjoying Strange New Worlds – it’s been one of the best things Paramount+ has done with the franchise, and I especially loved seeing a young James T. Kirk, played by Paul Wesley. Sadly, it looks like the show is ending after season 5, which is a real bummer. The good news is they’ve already finished filming both seasons 4 and 5, and season 4 is hitting screens on July 23rd.
