Microsoft is making it even simpler to buy games on your phone.

This update also brings your Wishlist to the app and lets you search for downloadable content directly within it. The new features are available now on both iOS and Android.
Turn 10 Studios announced that, with the team now concentrating on developing Forza Horizon 6 for 2026, they won’t be adding any new cars, tracks, features, or bug fixes to Forza Motorsport. They will, however, keep the online servers running, host occasional events and competitions, and regularly bring back older Featured Tours and reward cars each month until all content has been re-released.
Looking back on the time around the release of Breath of the Wild, it’s tempting to simply call it a success or failure. But I think that oversimplifies things.
It’s easy to forget details after so much time! With over six hours of story already told in the Avatar films, you might need a reminder before watching Avatar: Fire and Ash. This recap covers the main characters, plot points, and important details to get you ready for the next movie.
The fundraiser aims to help Northern Lake, a retirement farm in Japan that is home to the former racehorse Meisho Doto. The farm’s barns are in disrepair and urgently need to be rebuilt to ensure the horses living there, including Meisho Doto, have a safe and comfortable environment.
Colonel Quaritch’s story is one of the most compelling in the Avatar films. After seemingly dying in the first movie, he returned in Avatar: The Way of Water as a Na’vi avatar. This new body, combined with his memories, caused him to question his own existence, especially after learning his son, Spider (Jack Champion), was alive and well on Pandora. In a recent interview with MovieWeb, Stephen Lang, who plays Quaritch, discussed what his character faces in the upcoming film, Fire and Ash. He explained that these new relationships on Pandora represent uncharted territory for Quaritch.
The Star Wars Holiday Special brought back familiar faces like Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo, R2-D2, and C-3PO. But the special mainly followed Chewbacca’s family and their wish for him to come home for a holiday called Life Day. Life Day is similar to Christmas in the Star Wars universe. It began as a Wookiee tradition centered around family and peace, but it became a widely celebrated holiday across the galaxy.
It’s now very common to see Disney’s animated classics turned into live-action films, and many have come out recently. So, while another live-action Disney remake isn’t shocking, the choice of character for this new adaptation might be unexpected for some viewers.
While the film excels in its visuals and acting, and accurately portrays the time period, its impact is lessened by a lack of focus. The story could be set in almost any struggling country, rather than specifically Iraq. Everything, from the detailed city settings to the characters themselves, reflects the crumbling society around them, but this broad approach diminishes the film’s unique power.
Kubrick’s films often gain new layers of meaning over time, and Eyes Wide Shut is no exception. While the film is known for its explicit scenes, more unsettling moments—like one where a shop owner seemingly offers his young daughter to Tom Cruise’s character—suggest a world where sex, power, and exploitation are intertwined. Looking back, these subtle hints now seem to foreshadow disturbing events that would later come to light. In the 2010s, conspiracy theories like Pizzagate and QAnon brought rumors of elite sex-trafficking into public view. Then, with the arrest and death of Jeffrey Epstein, Kubrick’s film, once overlooked by many, began to feel eerily prophetic.
