The sequel to “Ne Zha” was first screened in China this winter, and since then has raked in over $1.64 billion USD domestically. As it expands its international release, it’s already outpaced “Frozen 2” as the second-highest earning animated film of all time. According to Variety’s latest box office report, this weekend’s earnings pushed it past the $1.64 billion mark. With these numbers, it’s poised to surpass both “Inside Out 2” and “The Lion King” to enter the ranks of the top ten highest grossing films ever made.

As a passionate film enthusiast, I’m thrilled about the transition from the DCEU to the DCU, spearheaded by writer/director James Gunn and producer Peter Safran under DC Studios. The DCU is currently brimming with energy and excitement, with its inaugural project, Creature Commandos, generating a buzz that’s making us all eager for the 2025 release of Superman.

Gunn, a veteran from the MCU, has been instrumental in Marvel Studios’ success. However, his past achievements have sparked apprehension among many fans, as they worry about the DCU adopting the humor-centric approach that characterized the MCU. The concern is that this could dilute the grittier, more serious tone that has defined the DC Universe thus far.

The opening episode of Season 23 for Family Guy began by satirically reimagining both Top Gun and its sequel, Top Gun: Maverick, in a fresh spin-off titled “Fat Gun.” Similar to past seasons where Family Guy devoted an entire half hour to a full-length movie parody (such as “PeTerminator”), this premiere places each character within the movie universe. Moreover, it humorously highlights one of the significant drawbacks of Top Gun: Maverick, namely the loss of key characters due to the long production time for the sequel.

In addition to its content, each book boasts striking covers that Oda, known for his intricate character designs, has adorned with multiple characters. This volume features Loki, the Cursed Prince of Elbaf, who is set to make his first appearance here. Fans have already applauded Loki’s design, but they weren’t anticipating Oda would give him a colorful new look with pink and purple hair. It’s surprising because Loki has been portrayed as menacing by the Giants since his introduction. However, his new appearance is endearingly cute. Furthermore, the crew members are looking sharp in their Elbaf outfits, each sporting their distinctive colors.

In the third season of “Invincible,” we’ve already completed the first half of episodes, and thankfully there won’t be a significant pause between the two halves like was the case in Season 2. Characters Mark and Eve have officially become a couple, and they are about to face their first major challenge together as an old acquaintance reaches out to Mark for assistance with a pressing matter. Take a look at the sneak peek preview for “Invincible” Season 3 Episode 5, which has been shared on its official social media channels.
