Everyone knows the Oscars are still the biggest honor in film, but the awards show itself has been facing challenges. TV ratings haven’t been strong in recent years, and finding successful hosts has been difficult. While Conan O’Brien was a hit this year and quickly signed on to host again, it’s uncertain if that positive momentum will continue.
Triple Triad first appeared in Final Fantasy VIII, and many fans still consider it the highlight of the game, even decades later. It’s more than just a fun distraction – it’s so well-designed that it could stand on its own as a complete game.
I recently chatted with Sir Ben Kingsley, and he gave us a fascinating peek behind the curtain of the upcoming Wonder Man series. He described it as essentially Trevor Slattery’s true life story – a real origin tale, not just about his time as the fake Mandarin. Apparently, the show will delve into his life before he even landed that infamous role, and then follow him through everything that happened afterward. It sounds like we’re getting a much deeper understanding of this character than we ever expected!
The comic DC K.O.: Harley Quinn vs. Zatanna, written by Leah Williams and illustrated by Mirka Andolfo, features a best-two-out-of-three-rounds battle. Fighters can transform into any version of themselves from throughout their history.
Zack Snyder directed several films in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU), starting with Man of Steel in 2013, followed by Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in 2016, and Justice League in 2017. The production of the 2017 Justice League was troubled, leading to the release of a director’s cut, Zack Snyder’s Justice League, in 2021. The DCEU concluded in 2023 with the release of Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom.
I just read that Angela Kinsey, who I loved as Angela on The Office, is going to be on Season 2 of Shifting Gears! She’s playing a character named Lynn, and apparently, Tim Allen’s character, Matt, meets her on this dating app called TradSwipe – it’s for people who want traditional values. From what I hear, they really connect at first, but there’s something a little off about the whole thing, which makes me super curious to see how it plays out!
The show FROM needs to start providing clear answers to its many mysteries, like the history of the strange town where it takes place, or it risks losing viewers – just like Lost did twenty years ago. As Season 4 approaches, it’s important to remember the biggest unanswered questions and whether they’ll ever be resolved.
Although Doctor Who is confirmed to continue for now, fans are eager to see what the next season will bring. Many believe Billie Piper will be the Sixteenth Doctor, but the show is known for its surprises, and things are rarely straightforward. While Piper could reprise her role as the Doctor, Rose Tyler, or even the powerful entity known as the Moment, there’s an interesting theory suggesting she might be playing a different, well-known character instead.
Following a long wait after the first Avatar and The Way of Water, Fire and Ash continues the story immediately after the 2022 film. Jake Sully and Neytiri are seeking refuge with the water Na’vi when a new danger arises: a powerful clan of Na’vi warriors led by the formidable Varang (Oona Chaplin). She’s allied with the human army on Pandora, giving them the weapons they need. Fire and Ash plunges into all-out war, and everyone—even reviewers—is caught in the conflict.
Blumberg’s music for The Brutalist was harsh and mechanical, featuring clanging sounds over a grand orchestral base. For this project, he’s chosen a gentler style, relying on classic instruments and lush strings. But the true star is Seyfried, who breathes fresh life into everything she sings – whether it’s a modern pop song, a Joni Mitchell classic, or a piece from centuries ago.
