Jordan Peele became a huge success immediately after his first film, Get Out, came out. The movie was nominated for the prestigious Best Picture Oscar, which is unusual for a horror film. He continued making suspenseful horror movies and also started helping other horror directors bring their visions to life. Today, Peele has been involved in seven scary movies as either the director or a producer.
This week marks the 28th anniversary of the premiere of Power Rangers in Space on Fox Kids, February 6, 1998. As the fifth installment in the Power Rangers series, it was initially intended as the concluding chapter for the franchise, due to declining ratings. Power Rangers in Space brought a six-season storyline, character development, and the overarching Zordon saga to a close, and remains a fitting end to the original era of the show, even today.
And now, even stars of the series are speaking out about their feelings on the controversial final season. Matthew Modine, who played Papa, was asked on Instagram if he enjoyed the series finale. To that, and likely much to Netflix‘s chagrin, he said simply, “No.” And when asked if he believed the fan-spun conspiracy theory that there was a secret ninth episode out there that’s still to be aired, he stated, “Hoping so for the fans.”
But one show that really shines is Russian Doll. Released in 2019, the series centers around Nadia (played by Natasha Lyonne), who finds herself stuck in a time loop on her 36th birthday, constantly dying and reliving the same night. The first season focuses on her trying to figure out why this is happening and how to break the cycle.
As a DC fan, I’ve always wondered who the really skilled assassins are, the ones who actually get the job done. There are so many characters who can fight, but who’s best at actually killing someone, quietly and efficiently? So, I’ve put together a ranking of the ten best assassins in the DC Universe, judging them on their reputation and the skills they’ve shown us. It’s not just about who wins in a brawl; it’s about who can eliminate a target without being caught, or even when heroes try to stop them. Let’s dive in and see who DC’s deadliest killers-for-hire really are.
I’ve noticed a lot of companies are starting to have second thoughts about using this new AI tech in games. But one of the biggest gaming companies around is doing the opposite! They’re really doubling down on it, and they’re actually speaking out about how they think AI is the way gaming is headed. Honestly, whether they can get players to accept it or not could really decide if this AI stuff takes off in the gaming world.
I’ve revisited many games released with the Xbox One, and while I often feel the same way I did initially, Ryse: Son of Rome consistently stands out as much better than it was originally perceived. Despite having strong combat, a beautiful presentation, and a captivating atmosphere, Ryse suffered from the negative reception surrounding the Xbox One’s launch and never really got a fair second look. It deserved another chance, and it still holds up incredibly well today.
The fifth season of Rent-a-Girlfriend is set to premiere in April, and the creators have been sharing details about the continuing Hawaii arc. Now, fans have a first look at what’s to come with the release of the official trailer for the new season. You can watch the trailer below.
Crunchyroll mistakenly published Episode 7 of Fate/strange Fake on its YouTube channel a week before it was supposed to be released. The episode was available for over eight hours on February 8th, though it wasn’t meant to premiere until February 14th. Once staff realized the mistake, they removed the video, but fans had already noticed and pointed out the error.
It’s not unusual for action movies to come and go from Netflix, and keeping them there long-term can be tricky due to complicated distribution agreements. However, a popular action franchise is coming back to Netflix soon, making all four of its films available to stream.
