After being closed for over a year for significant updates, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at Magic Kingdom will welcome guests again on May 3, 2026. The popular ride has been undergoing extensive work since January 2025.
Like much of the show Big Mistakes, this scene is fast-paced and chaotic, with quick cuts and characters often talking over each other. Created by John Levy and Rachel Sennott, the series centers on a small, bad decision that quickly spirals out of control. The main character, Morgan, struggles with emotional detachment and substance use, and often blurs the line between funny and upsetting situations. When she impulsively shoplifts a necklace, she and her friend Nicky find themselves caught up in a ridiculous chain of crimes, lies, and shocking discoveries that only escalate from there. The result is a remarkably tense comedy, similar in tone to Sennott’s previous show I Love LA, or fitting into the current trend of darkly funny, high-stress shows like Barry, The Bear, and Beef.
The show gives its central figure a peaceful and dignified death, something rare to see. He dies at home, without pain, holding a loved one’s hand, and seems to find solace in a vision of his best friend and colleagues who have passed. He finds closure knowing he finally fulfilled a promise made decades ago – rescuing Lee, just as he’d vowed to do for a fellow pilot lost in Korea. It’s a bit sentimental to discover Shane Baldwin was named after a fallen pilot, but it fits the show’s themes of honor and loyalty. However, it’s also typical for this series to abruptly end the life of that same son, Shane, early in the show’s run. This universe balances heartwarming moments with harsh realities, and doesn’t shy away from either.
The most successful shows were created by people with genuine stories to tell, and they favored real, physical effects over digital ones whenever they could. This approach keeps the series feeling believable, even years later. Great shows remain enjoyable today, even if you’re watching them for the first time on streaming. Here are a few series from the 1980s that were built on solid foundations and still hold up well.
Having existed for more than four decades, the Dragon Ball series has a wealth of characters that fans have largely forgotten. Many of these characters would be a great fit for the Black Frieza Saga. Despite their potential importance, they’ve either been completely absent from Dragon Ball Super or haven’t been used much since they were first introduced.
The new film isn’t a simple remake or sequel, which might be confusing for some viewers. However, the 2026 version of Faces of Death is surprisingly well-made. Knowing the history of the original film—including the decades of controversy surrounding it—will make you appreciate the new film even more, as director Goldhaber and co-writer Isa Mazzei have skillfully navigated a difficult balance. This article will explain why Faces of Death became so infamous and how the new version connects to the 1978 cult classic.
Wit Studio recently admitted that the new opening sequence for Season 4 of Ascendance of a Bookworm used AI-generated backgrounds, which many fans disliked. The original opening, released after the first episode, has been removed, and starting with Episode 2, a new opening with traditionally drawn backgrounds will be shown.
The initial trailer for M.I.A. is out, giving us a first look at the newest series by Bill Dubuque, the creator of Ozark. Since Ozark concluded, Dubuque has worked on several crime-related projects, including writing the script for The Accountant 2 and executive producing the Netflix thriller His & Hers.
As The Boys headed into its fifth and final season, Jessie T. Usher expected his character, A-Train, wouldn’t survive – the original comic books hinted at this. But when the show began in 2019, Usher didn’t anticipate A-Train would die as a hero. The series famously started with A-Train accidentally killing Robin, Hughie’s girlfriend, and showing no regret. This event motivated Hughie to join the Boys and fight against the powerful Homelander. However, by the end of the first episode of the final season, A-Train found redemption. He saved Hughie, avoided hitting another innocent person, and ultimately died confronting his former leader, Homelander – finally showing some courage.
Steven Soderbergh often releases small, low-key films, and The Christophers is one of them. It’s surprisingly good – not like some of his other, more flawed projects. The film mainly focuses on two characters, Julian and Lori, who engage in a complex, almost combative relationship spanning generations, revealing both their lies and moments of honesty. They both seem deeply hurt by the art world, yet still crave its approval. Lori initially approaches Julian as a potential assistant, but she’s actually been hired by his children to finish his famous series of paintings, also called “The Christophers,” which are portraits of a former lover. These paintings are mostly just rough sketches and have been stored away for years. Julian’s children, Sallie and Barnaby, hope to ‘discover’ and sell them after his death, completing the scheme.
