Zoe Saldaña has become the highest-grossing actress, thanks to her return as the strong Na’vi warrior Neytiri. She surpassed Scarlett Johansson, who held the top position last year following the release of Jurassic World Rebirth.
Created by René Echevarria and Travis Beacham, Carnival Row is a fantasy series that first aired on August 30, 2019. The eight-episode first season tells the story of mythical creatures struggling to survive as refugees in a human world. With a Victorian setting and themes that resonate with current events, the show tackles difficult issues like immigration, prejudice, and social inequality. Its exploration of these topics feels particularly relevant today, making it a worthwhile watch.
As a huge fan of the Game of Thrones world, I was really excited about this new series! It’s a prequel focusing on Ser Duncan the Tall – everyone calls him ‘Dunk’ – and his young squire, who secretly has royal blood. It fully adapts George R.R. Martin’s novella The Hedge Knight, and also includes the stories The Sworn Sword and The Mystery Knight – apparently, Martin always hoped those would be adapted for TV too. Early reactions are looking really good – IGN called it “the most purely enjoyable and heartfelt excursion to Westeros in some time,” so I’m definitely optimistic!
Despite its flaws, the game is visually appealing. The lighting is well done, especially how it reflects off the main character and the environments within the mysterious facility. However, it’s disappointing that most of the indoor areas look very similar to each other, with only a few outdoor locations offering any real variety.
Darrah feels that Anthem negatively impacted those who worked on it, affecting both their careers and well-being. He also points out that BioWare has struggled to move past the game’s troubled launch. “I don’t think I, or many others, fully recovered from the experience,” he admitted.
What sets Code Vein apart is that it didn’t simply apply an anime style to the established Soulslike formula, as seen in 2025’s AI Limit. Instead, it fundamentally reimagined core genre concepts through a strong narrative focus. The game prioritizes relationships with companions, offers a highly customizable character build system, and integrates story elements directly into gameplay, allowing players to connect with both the characters and the world through dialogue and cutscenes, not just through item descriptions. With a sequel, Code Vein II, on the horizon and other anime-inspired Soulslike games emerging, it’s worth revisiting what made the original Code Vein so unique. While AI Limit was a personal favorite of mine in 2025 (ranking at number 10), it adhered more closely to traditional Soulslike conventions. Code Vein* remains a standout title in the genre, and it’s worth examining what made it special when it first released.
The emotional impact of Raccoon City’s fate became a recurring theme in every subsequent Resident Evil game. Even for the survivors you battle alongside, the city wasn’t truly destroyed – it just transformed, appearing in terrifying legends, eerie swamps, and the tense, quiet moments between fighting zombies. It haunted the background, a constant presence even as players fought to survive.
The game starts with two challenging missions. First, you’ll learn the ropes by taking apart a massive golem from the inside. Then, you’ll experience a mission shown in recent gameplay – infiltrating The Wall. Cyanide Studio says this is just a preview, but it aims to give players a good feel for the game’s freedom and overall atmosphere.
The criminal organization known as Baroque Works, led by one of the world’s most powerful pirates, Crocodile, was huge, with hundreds of people involved. But only a small group of leaders were truly dangerous and important to the story. Here are the 12 most significant members of Baroque Works, ranked by how much influence they have in the world of One Piece.
Adam Sandler had a unique response when asked about phrases fans shout at him. While Dwayne Johnson often hears “you’re welcome” and Jeremy Allen White gets “yes, chef,” Sandler surprisingly revealed he frequently hears an insult his character, Happy Gilmore, receives in the movie. It’s not a compliment or famous line, but something fans actually yell at him a lot.
