Renowned director James Cameron, known for films like Titanic and Aliens, recently discussed the growing use of generative AI with SAG-AFTRA’s Duncan Crabtree-Ireland. In the podcast, Cameron expressed his worries about the technology, stating that it’s important to distinguish between traditional computer-assisted filmmaking and true generative AI.

As a huge fan of Avatar: The Last Airbender, I was thrilled to hear Toph Beifong was joining the live-action adaptation! She first showed up in Season 2 of the original animated series and immediately became a favorite. This character is a blind earthbender – meaning she can basically control stone, sand, metal, you name it – but it’s her personality that really makes her special.

I’m starting by acknowledging the disappointments of the past year in horror releases, which helps explain what isn’t on this list and provides background for what is. Instead of focusing on films that failed to impress, I’ve highlighted the horror movies that truly stood out. You’ll find a range here – some are daring and original, pushing the boundaries of the genre, while others are simply enjoyable surprises. But what they all have in common is that they left a lasting impression, giving me something new to ponder or fear – which is particularly noteworthy considering how much real-world horror we’ve all been facing.

In July 2022, Shah admitted to laundering money and initially received a six-and-a-half-year prison sentence. However, she served less than half of that time thanks to good behavior, participation in prison programs – including a fitness class she led – and payments she started making to those she harmed, according to People magazine.

The term “Arrowverse” usually refers to six TV shows: Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Batwoman, Black Lightning, and Legends of Tomorrow. These shows are known for their crossover events. But the Arrowverse actually includes several other series that don’t often get mentioned.

A classic love triangle is a key element, and while NCIS has used romantic tension effectively in the past – think Tony and Ziva, or Bishop and Torres – it wasn’t until season 23 that a full-fledged triangle truly developed.
