It’s surprising to see Sweet Home Alabama trending on Netflix, considering the movie came out over 20 years ago. While it’s no longer in the top 10, it was the fifth most popular movie on the platform for the week of February 2nd to 8th. Viewers watched it for a total of 8 million hours, adding up to 4.4 million views – enough to make it more popular than newer films like the 2018 remake of Overboard, Ben Stiller’s Night at the Museum, and the thriller Copshop.
Jean Grey was dying when the powerful Phoenix Force appeared and offered to save the X-Men – but only if it could inhabit Jean’s body. The Phoenix Force was curious about the human experience, so it duplicated Jean’s memories and consciousness before encasing her body in a cocoon at the bottom of the harbor. This is where the X-Men’s ship, which Jean had been piloting, eventually crashed.
Emerald Fennell, while appearing on the Happy, Sad, Confused podcast to discuss her work on Wuthering Heights, was asked by host Josh Horowitz what her reaction would be if James Gunn offered her the chance to direct a Wonder Woman movie.
Although it appears to be routine publishing practice for Penguin Random House, dedicated Marvel fans recognize these types of listings often hint at upcoming changes. With the new Spider-Man: Brand New Day comic reportedly including Mark Ruffalo’s version of the Hulk, the timing seems deliberate, suggesting a coordinated connection between the comics and the movies.
Watching The Queen’s Gambit had a surprisingly large impact. The show sparked a huge surge of interest in chess, bringing in many new players, viewers, and dedicated fans. Its detailed 1950s and 60s fashion also influenced the fashion world, solidifying the show’s place in popular culture. However, the world of chess itself is full of incredible true stories, like the one told in the 2026 film Queen of Chess.
Emerald Fennell recently discussed her abandoned DC film about Zatanna. Speaking on the ‘Happy Sad Confused’ podcast, she explained the story’s darker themes and the reasons it was ultimately canceled.
A new LEGO set has revealed an upcoming showdown between Spider-Man and Hulk in an office building. This set will introduce Mark Ruffalo’s version of the Hulk as a villain in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) for the first time in Phase 6, as part of the Multiverse Saga. It marks the first time this version of the Hulk will be portrayed as a threat in live-action after a long absence from the MCU.
Tyra Banks has been considering bringing back Top Model since at least 2020, though a new season hasn’t been officially confirmed. She’s said that it’s the question she’s asked most often – people want to know what happened to the show she created. Banks told Haute Living in 2020 that they were exploring ways to make it work, and she’s expressed similar thoughts in other interviews. America’s Next Top Model originally aired from 2003 to 2018, lasting 24 seasons. The new docuseries about the show might reignite interest in a revival, or it could serve as a reminder that revisiting that time period isn’t necessary.
Jackie never lost her calm, graceful voice, even when correcting her son. She often reminded him, “No one understands what it’s like to marry into this family.” She believed no amount of experience could truly prepare a woman for life as a Kennedy’s wife. Marriage to John wasn’t a partnership, but a sacrifice: a woman had to dedicate her life to supporting him, and the ideal wife would not only accept that, but embrace it. Above all, she had to love him despite his flaws. It was a huge ask. In fact, Jackie felt that, given these expectations, the perfect woman for John – affectionately known as John-John – might not even exist. And she was deeply disappointed that she couldn’t somehow be reborn to fulfill that role herself.
