I just finished watching Thrash on Netflix, and honestly, the most amazing thing is how believable the flooded neighborhood looks. They didn’t actually flood a town, of course, but it was so realistic I totally thought they had!
In September 2025, it was announced that Nia Long would star in a new Netflix biopic called Perfect, based on the life of Olympic gold medalist Kerri Strug. Long was also set to be an executive producer. The film would have depicted Strug’s story as a member of the famous 1996 U.S. gymnastics team – known as the “Magnificent Seven” – who won gold at the Atlanta Olympics, even after Strug injured her ankle but bravely competed to help her team win. However, the project has since been cancelled.
Netflix has become known for its popular horror series, particularly those created by Mike Flanagan. He’s worked with Netflix on seven projects – two movies and five TV shows – all of which found an audience, but The Haunting of Hill House is arguably his most outstanding work. This 10-episode series, directed and produced by Flanagan, is incredibly easy to watch all the way through and holds up well to multiple viewings.
Throughout his 43 episodes on For All Mankind, Joel Kinnaman played Ed Baldwin as a dependable leader – someone you’d rely on when things got tough. As a Navy pilot, NASA astronaut, and later an employee of the aerospace company Helios, Ed evolved from a traditional figure to a rebel, championing independence for Mars and the rights of its people. Ultimately, this new dedication to his cause tragically leads to his death.
According to tech blog FlatPanelsHD, several features have been removed, such as easy rewinding and fast-forwarding using side buttons, timeline scrubbing with circular motions, options to customize how subtitles look, Apple’s dialogue enhancement feature, and a double-tap function to quickly see a title’s end time. Several accessibility features were also removed.
The consequences of Cunningham’s failed rebellion are immediate. It’s almost comical that Cunningham and his followers still seem to think they have any power here, considering he tried to have Jamie executed and then simply kill him! He has no right to complain about how Claire is handling his recovery. It’s also surprising to see Hiram Crombie upset that Jamie is taking back the Trading Post and forcing him and his men off Fraser’s Ridge – they actively tried to get Jamie killed! Jamie simply ending their leases and giving them ten days to leave, with a warning that they’ll be shot if they return, is a remarkably restrained response. In fact, Cleveland thinks Jamie should have killed Cunningham outright.
The new sci-fi movie starring Ryan Gosling opened to a strong start, bringing in $80 million in the US and Canada and $141 million globally. This marks the biggest opening weekend ever for a film from Amazon MGM.
Twenty years after Malcolm in the Middle finished, Frankie Muniz is reprising his role as Malcolm, now as an adult navigating his famously chaotic family. The new limited series brings back original cast members like Bryan Cranston, Justin Berfield, Christopher Masterson, and Jane Kaczermarek, and also includes a dedicated fan of the show who’s excited to be a part of it.
SpaceGodzilla has only been in one major movie so far: the 1994 film Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla. In that film, he was an incredibly powerful opponent who almost defeated Godzilla. If the new SpaceGodzilla in the upcoming Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is as dangerous, Godzilla and Kong will need to become much stronger to survive. While Legendary hasn’t confirmed anything, we might have already seen hints about how they’ll gain those upgrades, thanks to an unexpected leak.
While many remember it fondly, Malcolm in the Middle hasn’t become the endlessly rewatched hit that shows like The Office and New Girl have. Those shows have iconic quotes and popular rewatch podcasts hosted by their stars, but Malcolm in the Middle hasn’t had the same lasting impact. This is partly because it didn’t get the same boost from streaming services like Netflix. It’s also because, aside from Bryan Cranston, the cast hasn’t stayed in the public eye. Hulu’s new continuation, Life’s Still Unfair, quickly reminds viewers of the show’s chaotic energy. The opening montage is filled with violence and drama, and Frankie Muniz’s Malcolm immediately addresses the audience with his signature anxious tone. He boasts about learning to deal with difficult people, and suddenly, it all comes flooding back: this show was delightfully edgy and unpredictable.
