One of the biggest movie disappointments of 2017 was The Snowman. Despite featuring a strong cast including Michael Fassbender, Rebecca Ferguson, Charlotte Gainsbourg, J.K. Simmons, and Val Kilmer, the thriller failed to find an audience. It earned just $43 million globally—less than its $35 million production cost—and received a dismal 7% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
As a huge Daredevil fan, I was a little disappointed we only got one face-to-face between Daredevil and Kingpin in the first episode of the new season. Everyone’s hoping to see them really go at it again – it’s been a long wait since their last physical fight back in the final episode of the Netflix series in 2018! But even if they don’t throw down immediately, it feels like things are building to something huge. I’m expecting a lot more intense drama and a rivalry that’s bigger and better than ever before.

Many people enjoyed Richard Ineson’s performance in First Steps. His character, a very tall man with a distinctive purple helmet, could have easily seemed silly, but Ineson played him as genuinely frightening. Although First Steps was Galactus’s first appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it wasn’t Ineson’s first role in the franchise.

Fantasy stories have given us amazing heroes, like Buffy Summers, Jon Snow, and Geralt of Rivia. However, some of the most popular fantasy series actually have villains who are more interesting and unforgettable than the heroes. While these villains might not always be the center of attention, they often become the key reason the show keeps moving forward.
Looking back, it was inevitable they’d open with “Live from London, it’s Saturday night!” – there wasn’t much else they could do. Still, I was surprised when I heard it.
