Look, as a lifelong Star Wars fan, any change always feels a little scary, but this feels extra intense. I think a lot of us were worried because Dave Filoni tends to really focus on the characters he created – like Ahsoka and Ezra – and we wondered if he’d prioritize those over expanding the existing Star Wars universe. Plus, there was concern about whether he’d stay true to what made Star Wars special in the first place. Those worries have really resurfaced lately, especially after his recent comments about Darth Vader and how he was portrayed in the Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord comic. It’s got a lot of fans raising their eyebrows, myself included.

Sometimes, a shorter length can actually help a series, particularly those that rely on mystery and building tension. It’s easy to drag those elements out in longer stories, but a shorter run can deliver just the right amount. Plus, well-made shorter anime can still develop strong characters, create interesting worlds, and have a good plot, even with fewer episodes. The following five series are great examples of this.

The X-Men have a long history, which can be intimidating for new readers. But don’t let that stop you! There are fantastic stories that will win over even those unfamiliar with the team. Here are ten X-Men stories that are perfect for newcomers and are sure to make anyone a fan.

As a longtime watcher of Middle-earth unfold on screen, what always struck me is the sheer variety of its inhabitants. It’s not a world where everyone starts on equal footing. You see, some were literally made by the supreme creator, Ilúvatar, as part of his original plan for the world. Others… well, they sprung from darker sources, or were the result of lesser powers trying their hand at creation. This leads to a truly diverse cast of characters, each with their own unique origins and, naturally, power levels. It’s a fascinating world-building detail that really enriches the story.

A new behind-the-scenes look at Masters of the Universe, called ‘Master of the Screen,’ has been released. It includes both footage from the making of the film and some brand new scenes. While it doesn’t have as much new footage as previous featurettes, it does showcase more of the exciting fight between the villainous Evil-Lyn and Teela. These scenes are shown alongside footage of He-Man battling the Skel-Knights. You can watch the new footage in the video provided.
