A portion of the profits will be donated to BBC Children in Need.
In 2019, Disney had an impressive eight films earn over $1 billion at the box office. However, in the following six years, including the disruption of the Covid-19 pandemic, only six Disney movies reached that milestone, with three of those successes happening just this year. While it’s taken some time for Disney to regain its momentum – and they’ve had some misses along the way – the three big hits of 2024 prove that when Disney delivers, it really excels.
As the Multiverse Saga wraps up, Earth’s heroes will face their biggest challenge yet: Doctor Doom, who threatens the entire multiverse. While the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday movie won’t be able to showcase every possible reality, here’s a list of the universes confirmed to appear, ranked from most to least important.
Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns is a landmark achievement in Batman’s history, often credited with helping comics grow up. It envisioned a grim future where Batman had to return to fighting crime on the streets. Marvel followed suit in 2006 with Spider-Man: Reign by Kaare Andrews, which took a similar approach. However, while TDKR is considered a classic, Spider-Man: Reign received a much more mixed reaction. Though it’s often criticized, I believe Spider-Man: Reign is a strong story that gets to the heart of what makes Spider-Man such a compelling character.
Here are Bethesda’s five best underrated games.
With recent events in the Elbaf arc and the story now focusing on the past, Loki’s enigmatic companion has been largely forgotten. After chapter 1167 came out, a popular theory emerged suggesting the voice from the Transponder Snail belongs to Shirahoshi. Several prominent social media accounts, like @PookiePiece, even stated this as fact, despite the manga providing no evidence. This idea gained traction because of a past joke involving Harald, King Neptune, and Neptune’s unborn daughter and Loki. However, as the rumors continued to spread, @DawnStussy, a Japanese fan translator and theorist, proved the claims to be false.
Recent comments from Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos are causing worry in the film industry and among movie fans.

Recent leaks from Dusk Golem have revealed over 10 minutes of gameplay footage on YouTube for a project codenamed “Draconis.” Those following PlayStation rumors may recognize this as the game some insiders have called the “ooze game.”
I’m a huge fan of Mike Judge – the guy behind classics like Beavis and Butt-Head, King of the Hill, and Office Space. He directed Idiocracy, which he wrote with Etan Cohen, and honestly, it’s become one of my all-time favorites! It didn’t do great in theaters originally, only making around $495,000, but it’s really found its audience over the years thanks to DVD and streaming. If you haven’t seen it, or want to rewatch, you have until December 28th – that’s when it’s leaving Netflix. Seriously, don’t miss it!
