Christopher Paolini’s The Inheritance Cycle is a great place to start for fantasy fans. The series began with Eragon in 2003 (though some readers found self-published copies earlier, in 2002). Clearly influenced by classic fantasy stories, the books capture the magic of the genre and are easy for newcomers to enjoy. It’s a sweeping adventure filled with dragons, a sense of fate, and thrilling danger, but it remains engaging without being overwhelming.

With the new DC Universe set to launch in 2026, more details are emerging about its heroes. At an HBO Max event in Brazil in November 2025, a trailer for the upcoming series Lanterns revealed that Hal Jordan (played by Kyle Chandler) will be able to fly. This makes him the eighth character in the DCU with the power of flight.

Last season of RuPaul’s Drag Race didn’t include any group challenges, and it really didn’t work. It felt strange – even Suzie Toot agreed when I spoke with her – and fans felt the same way. People love seeing drag queens in groups! These challenges show what it’s really like for the queens to collaborate, and those who excel at teamwork can really shine both on stage and online. It’s the most realistic test of what it takes to be a successful drag queen today. The U.K. version has embraced this, likely inspired by their love for iconic girl groups like the Spice Girls, Little Mix, and Girls Aloud.

When Wrath of the Titans came out fourteen years ago, critics didn’t like it, and most people didn’t go to see it, effectively ending the series after just two movies. But looking back after more than a decade, it seems the film may have gotten a raw deal. Perhaps it’s time to take another look and appreciate this sequel, which may have been unfairly criticized.

The new Godzilla film, Godzilla Minus Zero, is scheduled to come out on November 6, 2026. It continues the story started in the highly praised Godzilla Minus One and will feature Minami Hamabe, Ryûnosuke Kamiki, and Miou Tanaka. Takashi Yamazaki wrote and directed the movie, adding another chapter to the popular monster series.

Hulu’s 11.22.63 is a captivating science fiction drama that imagines an alternate history of the JFK assassination, taking place in the early 1960s. It’s considered one of the best TV adaptations of Stephen King’s work, largely thanks to its excellent cast and strong performances from the actors playing all the key roles.

Movies generally hit their best point around two hours long. When they go much beyond that, it often feels unnecessary. Those extra minutes usually consist of scenes that repeat information or endings that drag on. Cutting those parts can make a film feel much more focused and enjoyable.

Even within the science fiction genre, stories need a degree of realism to truly resonate, and Altered Carbon definitely makes a strong impression. It boldly explores future technology and, more importantly, how that technology would likely only serve the wealthy, fearlessly revealing the darker side of human nature. The series paints a disturbingly believable picture of a future that doesn’t feel too far off, making it a truly compelling dystopian work from beginning to end.

The movie Ford v Ferrari (known as Le Mans 66 internationally) is currently gaining popularity on Netflix. It’s the sixth most-watched film on the platform this week, trailing behind the new true-crime documentary, Evil Influencer: The Jodi Heldebrandt Story, which is currently number one.

TopMob recently interviewed Kellen Goff, the voice actor behind popular characters like Freddy Fazbear and Foxy in the Five Nights at Freddy’s series (including Toy Freddy in FNAF 2). During the conversation, Goff admitted there are still parts of the game’s backstory he doesn’t fully understand, even after being involved with the franchise for so long.
