I almost choked on my coffee when I saw the new Stranger Things post on X! It’s such a cool image, but honestly, as a fan, I immediately started looking for hidden meanings. Everyone’s convinced there’s a secret episode coming, so we’re all trying to find clues in everything the show releases. And people were fast – within minutes, fans were sharing what they thought they’d discovered all over social media. It’s fun trying to crack the code!

Star Trek was groundbreaking for its time, using futuristic stories to examine important social issues we still face today. It pioneered concepts like time travel and virtual reality, and its exploration of alternate realities resulted in some of the most memorable episodes, especially in the original series.

All eight episodes of the first season of Finding Her Edge will be available on Netflix starting January 22nd. It’s a great way to get excited for the Winter Olympics next month!

The show concluded some storylines neatly, but left others, such as what will happen to Eleven, open-ended for viewers to decide for themselves.

Following the release of Stranger Things 5 and the announcement of its Warner Bros. acquisition, Netflix revealed its upcoming TV shows for 2026 on the Tudum blog. However, Netflix’s preview of 2026 content confirmed that nine popular original series, which premiered new seasons in 2025 and were renewed, won’t be back until at least 2027.

Director Ric Roman Waugh clearly understood what made the first Greenland successful, but Greenland 2: Migration feels different. While the original focused on compelling characters, the sequel seems more interested in showing off its bigger budget with impressive visual effects. The Icelandic landscapes and CGI depictions of a devastated Earth – including ruined cities and dust storms – will appeal to fans of post-apocalyptic films. However, the story, written by the returning screenwriter and a new collaborator, feels slow and doesn’t always make sense. It introduces some intriguing ideas but doesn’t develop them fully. Even acknowledging that a sequel isn’t always necessary, Greenland 2: Migration doesn’t live up to the potential of the first film, remaining a merely passable and unmemorable experience.

The latest trailer for Avengers: Doomsday features a stunning moment of Cyclops using his full optic blast power. It’s easy to miss, but the background also appears to show the Sentinels – powerful enemies of the X-Men. Considering Cyclops is going all-out in this scene, it suggests the Sentinels will be a formidable challenge in the movie.

The four actors who played Hobbits have gotten together before for events at fan conventions. This reunion included Ian McKellen, who will soon be reprising his role as Gandalf in the upcoming film, The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum. However, Viggo Mortensen, along with other stars from The Lord of the Rings, did not participate.

The last episode of the Seattle medical drama left viewers on a cliffhanger. Jo Wilson was facing heart failure while preparing for an emergency C-section to deliver her twins, and Richard Webber received a prostate cancer diagnosis. The episode also featured plenty of romantic complications. Actress Kim Raver recently shared her reaction to reading the latest scripts with US Weekly.

Marvel recently shared a fun fact on Twitter about a funny moment in Thunderbolts. It turns out the scene wasn’t originally scripted! Something unexpected happened during filming, but the actors played along, and it worked out so well that it made the final cut of the movie. You should definitely check it out!
