If you look at Superman’s vulnerabilities, many villains – even those less powerful than him – could actually defeat him. Several Marvel villains, specifically, could exploit those weaknesses and win, especially in a story where Superman is meant to be beaten. Here are seven Marvel villains who could take down the seemingly unbeatable hero.
Honestly, this flashback has been wild! We started out trying to understand how Harold died, but then BAM – Rocks D. Xebec, the most infamous pirate ever, showed up! And it totally flipped everything we thought we knew about him. Turns out, Rocks wasn’t just a villain; he was a genuinely good man, unbelievably powerful, and had ambitions bigger than anyone else. They even showed that Gol D. Roger wasn’t in the same league! It was almost heartbreaking to see him go. With all the crazy reveals, it’s easy to forget what started it all, but thankfully the latest chapter is bringing us back to the present and focusing on Harold’s final moments again. I’m so ready to see how it all connects!
The movie Downsizing, featuring Matt Damon, Kristin Wiig, and Christoph Waltz, tells the story of Paul Safranek (Damon), a regular guy, and his wife, Audrey (Wiig). They decide to try a radical procedure: shrinking themselves to a tiny size to live in a miniature community, hoping to reduce their impact on the environment. It’s a permanent change, but Audrey gets cold feet at the last minute, leaving Paul to navigate this new life alone. After finalizing their divorce with an oversized pen, he discovers that even a smaller life can have big problems. While Downsizing didn’t wow critics or audiences, it still has some appealing qualities.
Most people were happy to consider the story a fantastic two-part film, even though it originally intended to be a trilogy, and the final addition felt like a minor afterthought. Surprisingly, that overlooked ending was later significantly reworked and improved. While it’s still not well-known due to its initial reception, it’s definitely worth watching if you loved the first two films and consider the series a cinematic masterpiece.
Although the animated short is currently only available in stores, a clip of it quickly spread across social media, with many fans calling it one of the best animated projects in the series. While the official Base Shop account on X only posted an 18-second snippet, the full video was shared by user @Rata_5610 and rapidly gained traction among popular fan accounts. The animation style closely resembles that of ‘Fan Letter,’ which is likely why it immediately captured viewers’ attention.
To mark its 20th anniversary, the popular series Code Geass is planning new projects, including a brand-new anime called Code Geass: Aspar the Star Chaser (the English title is still being finalized).

It’s been seven years since Super Smash Bros. Ultimate was released on the Nintendo Switch. With its huge selection of characters and stages, the game has kept players engaged for almost a decade. Now, on its seventh anniversary, it’s a good time to remember what made Ultimate so popular – and understand why we haven’t heard about a new installment yet, likely due to the game’s incredible depth and content.
Netflix is getting a bunch of new content next week, but the biggest arrival is definitely Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery. The third movie in the popular Knives Out series premieres on Friday, December 12th, and brings back detective Benoit Blanc to solve another complicated mystery.
I absolutely love the Mission: Impossible films, but even with all the praise, it’s fun to notice little mistakes! While I could spend forever pointing them out in every movie, the first one has quite a few. Luckily, Brian De Palma’s film moves so fast and grabs you right away that you probably won’t even catch most of them. The slightly frustrating part? Five out of the seven errors I’ve found happen in just one scene, so be warned – it might ruin that part for you forever! Still, it doesn’t diminish how much I enjoy the whole series.
