While the show’s extended focus on the Targaryen family conflicts wasn’t ideal, it’s arguably not the biggest problem. In Season 2, Rhaenyra sends her stepdaughter, Rhaena, along with her sons Joffrey, Viserys, and Aegon, to the Vale with Jeyne Arryn. Rhaena is tasked with caring for the boys and guarding their dragons, Tyraxes and Stormcloud, as well as four dragon eggs. These eggs are later destined to hatch 170 years later with Daenerys Targaryen in Essos, but their presence in Westeros at this point in the story creates a confusing and illogical change to the established timeline.

The Duffer Brothers recently revealed that Vecna was initially conceived as the conductor from The Polar Express. Matt Duffer explained that the villain would have been seen wearing the conductor’s hat and would have picked Holly up “on a train.”

Holt McCallany, known for his roles in Mindhunter, The Iron Claw, and Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning, will join Percy Jackson and the Olympians for Season 3. He’s been cast as Atlas, the powerful titan forced to hold up the sky, and will be the season’s primary villain. According to Deadline, Atlas is seeking revenge against the gods and will appear in six episodes, becoming a recurring antagonist throughout the series.

The video has a calm and serious tone, mainly showing Thor praying to Odin for help in a forest before he sets out to find Love. The trailer gives a good look at Thor’s new outfit, which was anticipated as Marvel often updates costumes for merchandise. However, his overall appearance includes some changes to previously established details.

The second season of the hit fantasy series follows Percy, Annabeth, and Grover as they face a new challenge. When their home, Camp Half-Blood, is attacked, the three demigods set out on a dangerous quest to find the Golden Fleece. They hope the Fleece will heal a sacred tree and rebuild the magical defenses protecting the camp.

The fourth season of Mayor of Kingstown has concluded with a powerful and emotional finale. While the season brought constant conflict between two major gangs and put Kyle McLusky’s life in danger while he was in prison, the McLusky brothers still face significant challenges ahead.

We’re excited to announce that the sci-fi action movie Gamer, directed by Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor (known for Crank and Crank 2: High Voltage), is coming to Peacock on January 1, 2026! Though it’s not a critical darling, Gamer is a wildly over-the-top, violent, and admittedly cheesy action film – which is exactly what makes it so much fun to watch. Fans of Gerard Butler will especially enjoy revisiting this cult favorite.

First Reaction – Novocaine tries too hard to be edgy and outside the box.

The villains in Avatar: The Way of Water were compelling and complex, especially Colonel Miles Quaritch (Stephen Lang) and Varang (Oona Chaplin). However, I’m really interested to find out more about the even larger threat hinted at for the fourth and fifth Avatar movies.

With all the potential to be a great follow-up to the already strong TRON: Legacy, TRON: Ares unfortunately stumbled. The biggest issue? The absence of TRON himself. While he wasn’t the central figure after the first movie, he still played a significant part in Legacy. Now, with TRON: Ares underperforming in theaters, it’s obvious that including the character the series is named after might have made a real difference.
