Games

The 1990s weren’t known for big, polished RPGs; instead, it was a time for unique, ambitious games that weren’t afraid to be different. Sadly, many of these innovative role-playing games were eventually forgotten as newer, more popular games took center stage. They became little more than historical notes. However, their impact hasn’t vanished. These games profoundly influenced the RPG genre, inspiring current game designers and introducing gameplay elements still used today. Let’s revisit three of the best overlooked tabletop RPGs from the 90s that deserve recognition.

The animated series Trolls: The Beat Goes On! is no longer available on Netflix. The show, which bridges the gap between the first Trolls movie and Trolls World Tour, follows the adventures of characters like Queen Poppy and Branch as they navigate life in Troll Village. All eight seasons disappeared from Netflix on November 17th, and are now on Peacock, though currently only the first two seasons are available to stream there.

Recently, fake images related to the upcoming movie Doomsday have been circulating on social media. These include a picture seemingly showing the X-Men cast reuniting for additional filming, and AI-created images of Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom. There are also realistic-looking fake publicity photos featuring actors like Tobey Maguire (who’s rumored to be in the film as Spider-Man), Brie Larson, and Benedict Cumberbatch. While these images are convincing, it’s important to remember they aren’t real.

Aaron Paul, known for his voice work as Powerplex in the animated series Invincible, recently shared some surprising news while discussing the video game Dispatch. In an interview with “Kinda Funny Gamescast,” the Breaking Bad actor explained that he won’t be returning for future seasons of Invincible, but emphasized it wasn’t due to any issues with the show’s creators. Paul said they asked him to reprise his role, and while he’s a big fan of the series, the emotional toll of playing Powerplex was simply too intense. He expressed great respect for the show and its team, but admitted the character was a lot to handle.

Many great sci-fi series on Netflix haven’t gotten the attention they deserve, often due to poor marketing, the need for subtitles, or simply being released at the wrong time. But for viewers who are willing to explore beyond the most popular shows and aren’t afraid of subtitles, these series offer exciting and rewarding experiences with the same high quality as other well-known sci-fi hits.

Five games are competing for the title of Best Mobile Game in 2025. The lineup includes strong contenders like the impressive Destiny Rising spin-off and the popular free-to-play RPG Wuthering Waves. However, both my personal opinion and the initial reaction from fans suggest a clear frontrunner: Umamusume: Pretty Derby is almost certain to win.

In a recent Reddit Q&A on the /r/movies forum, Benedict Cumberbatch shared that his biggest on-set regret isn’t related to his role as Khan. He recounted being tricked by a playful prank from his co-stars. When a fan asked about his funniest work mistake, Cumberbatch revealed he once believed in a fake product called “Neutron Cream” while filming Star Trek. He clarified it happened off-camera, but still while at work.

Please be aware that the following contains spoilers for the most recent episode of the My Hero Academia anime. The final battle has taken a dramatic turn! Deku is risking everything by entering Shigaraki’s mind with the help of past One For All users. However, All For One has taken control of Shigaraki, twisting his mind and ushering in an era of darkness. Fortunately, Deku receives crucial support from his friends, allowing them to fight back against this powerful foe. In a surprising turn, Shigaraki and Deku briefly team up to defeat All For One, but this victory comes at a cost – Shigaraki’s body is destroyed in the process. To commemorate this pivotal moment and the impact of these characters, the creator, Horikoshi, has released new artwork featuring both Deku and Shigaraki.

Several attempts to create new Superman movies have fallen through, including one project called Superman: Flyby that at one point involved J.J. Abrams as a producer and director Brett Ratner (known for X-Men: The Last Stand). Many actors auditioned for the main role, but Brendan Fraser, famous for The Mummy, was a strong contender and even tried on the Superman suit during the casting process.

All eight seasons of the TV show Arrow will be removed from Netflix next month, on December 18th. Fans have until December 17th to finish watching the series. It’s not yet known where Arrow will be available to stream after it leaves Netflix, but because it’s a DC show produced by Warner Bros., HBO Max is a likely possibility.
