As a big fantasy fan, I’ve seen a lot of shows start with promise, but every now and then, one just nails it right from the beginning. You know the ones – within the first few minutes, everything just works. The vibe, the characters, the sheer scale of the story… it’s clear the people making it have a really firm vision. And honestly, those are the shows that really stick with me – they don’t just become great fantasy TV, they instantly feel special and then consistently deliver on that initial impact, proving it wasn’t just a lucky first impression.

However, don’t anticipate any concrete announcements in the near future. Although Trachtenberg states the new agreement with Paramount doesn’t rule out him directing another Predator film, he’s still finalizing the specifics.

In 2025, fans of the author will have plenty of options for enjoying their stories on TV through various streaming platforms. Netflix, known for its great thriller series, is one of them. A Stephen King series recently became available there, about ten years after it was first released, and it’s a gripping sci-fi thriller that’s perfect for binge-watching.

Edmund McMillen, known for games like Super Meat Boy and The Binding of Isaac, and Tyler Glaiel (who previously worked with McMillen on The End Is Nigh) recently released Mewgenics on PC on February 10th. Critics are loving the game, giving it a 90 on Metacritic, and calling it incredibly addictive. Mewgenics uniquely combines elements of strategy, RPGs, management sims, and roguelikes, and players are impressed by its depth and how it continues to surprise them even after many hours of gameplay.

I’ll never forget seeing the movie as a teenager – my friends and I snuck into the R-rated showing. We were a bunch of sci-fi loving rebels, and the film completely floored us. I even remember trying to hide my tears during Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World,” which felt surprisingly sad after what we’d just watched. So, when I heard 12 Monkeys was becoming a show on SyFy, I was skeptical. It felt wrong to try and remake such a great film. But it was the early 2010s and TV was changing, so I gave the first four episodes, co-created by Terry Matalas & Travis Fickett, a try. By the end of the first episode, “Atari,” I was completely drawn in. And by the end of the second season, the show had become my second favorite thing called 12 Monkeys.
