I’ve been following the numbers at Toei Animation, and it’s pretty interesting to see how things are changing. For a long time, Dragon Ball was their biggest money-maker, but One Piece has now taken the lead. It’s a clear shift in what’s driving revenue for them. However, I think things could swing back if Dragon Ball Super makes a comeback before One Piece finishes its run.

Stephen Amell posted the trailer on X, and it shows him running on the beach without a shirt. You can watch the trailer here:

The movie Primate is now the No. 1 film on Paramount+ in the United States, according to FlixPatrol. It’s just behind Top Gun: Maverick and has climbed three spots in the rankings. Primate has been in the U.S. Top 10 for almost 60 days since its release on March 25th. It’s also back in the Top 10 in Canada, currently at No. 4.

Over the course of the seven Harry Potter books and eight films, Harry, Ron, and Hermione face a wide range of monsters, from relatively harmless ones to truly terrifying creatures. The most memorable monsters are often those that are both strangely charming and frightening.

Certain things in the Star Wars films have become instantly recognizable, like the opening text crawl with John Williams’ music, a character saying, “I have a bad feeling about this,” the Wilhelm scream sound effect, and Anthony Daniels appearing in a role. However, as the Star Wars story moves beyond the Skywalker family, some of these familiar elements are being left out or changed instead of consistently appearing in new films.

From 2001 to 2014, the action-thriller series 24 was a major force in television. While fans debate the best seasons, many consider season 5 to be a standout. It originally aired in 2006 and featured Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer returning from hiding to investigate the murders of important characters David Palmer and Michelle Dessler. Jack’s colleagues, Tony Almeida and Chloe O’Brian, were also targets of the same killer. Throughout the series, Jack often sacrificed his own well-being to protect others, and season 5 proved especially challenging for him.

Jordan Peele quickly became a leading creative force in horror, starting with his 2017 debut, the critically praised psychological thriller Get Out, which launched the career of Daniel Kaluuya (known for roles in Black Panther, Get Out, and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse).
