In 2024, Marvel launched the first seasons of shows like Ironheart, Daredevil: Born Again, and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. Star Wars fans enjoyed the final season of Andor and a new installment of Star Wars: Visions Volume 3. Both Marvel and Star Wars are expected to continue releasing popular streaming shows on Disney+ in 2026.
Bitcoin’s recent price weakness has revived the quantum-computing debate, with one high-profile investor arguing it’s already shaping market behavior – and on-chain analysts saying the real driver is more old-fashioned selling pressure. (Spoiler: It’s always the selling pressure.)
I love seeing characters grow and get stronger with awesome power-ups, but honestly, some of the coolest anime characters start at the top! They’re already incredibly powerful when we first meet them, and that’s what’s so captivating. They can be someone the main character looks up to, or a huge obstacle in their way. They instantly grab you with their sheer strength – strength they often spent years building before the story even began, which is just amazing!
A new study demonstrates that pairing advanced AI models with external knowledge sources dramatically improves their ability to identify misleading content related to climate change.
Inspired by George R.R. Martin’s Tales of Dunk and Egg, this show offers a fresh perspective on the world of the Seven Kingdoms. Instead of focusing on powerful royal families vying for the Iron Throne, it centers on a humble knight who, while skilled with a horse, is short on money after his mentor’s death. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms follows the adventures of this knight and his young apprentice as they travel the land. Many viewers already believe the premiere episode showcases scenes that are as captivating as those in the original Game of Thrones series.
It’s no surprise to me that the season’s strongest episodes—this one and the first—focused on sewing, letting the queens simply be drag queens without unnecessary interference. However, this isn’t a great episode because of the challenge itself; it’s overly complicated, unpleasant, and feels like the producers were trying to make up for denying Vita a win in the first episode. What makes this episode good is the fantastic cast and how much fun they have interacting with each other. The song performances were bad, the scripted scenes were awkward, and the challenge is just strange. Ultimately, the success of this season depends on the queens, not gimmicks, and if the producers can avoid messing things up, the rest of the season should be really enjoyable.
The first gambit, executed at $7.91, was perhaps a mistake-a relic of sobriety. Yet the whale, or perhaps a phantom in its stead, clung to the $8.10 to $8.69 range with the obsession of a man drowning. It was not wealth they sought but the idea of wealth, clutched like a crucifix in a cathedral of code.
I’m so excited to be here this week, soaking up all the energy of the festival! It’s incredible to see all the amazing movies, parties, and stars gather in this ski town for the last time after 45 years. I’ll be watching as incredible people stop by our studio on Main Street for portraits with Sinna Nasseri, and I can’t wait to hear the insightful conversations with Vulture writers Fran Hoepfner, Jason P. Frank, and Angelica Jade Bastién. And of course, I’m looking forward to a Ketel One espresso martini (or maybe a few!) from the fantastic bartenders. I’ll be sharing all my favorite moments and the latest news right here and on social media, so be sure to follow along!
New research demonstrates how artificial intelligence can enhance the detection of structural defects in critical underground infrastructure like culverts and sewers.
I’m so excited about this new Kingsman movie! It’s a prequel, taking us all the way back to World War I with Ralph Fiennes leading the charge. It’s definitely a spy thriller, but it doesn’t shy away from showing the realities of the war. And honestly, there’s one scene in particular that I think is genuinely one of the greatest ever filmed – it’s just that good!
