Look, as a lifelong Star Wars fan, any change always feels a little scary, but this feels extra intense. I think a lot of us were worried because Dave Filoni tends to really focus on the characters he created – like Ahsoka and Ezra – and we wondered if he’d prioritize those over expanding the existing Star Wars universe. Plus, there was concern about whether he’d stay true to what made Star Wars special in the first place. Those worries have really resurfaced lately, especially after his recent comments about Darth Vader and how he was portrayed in the Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord comic. It’s got a lot of fans raising their eyebrows, myself included.

A new behind-the-scenes look at Masters of the Universe, called ‘Master of the Screen,’ has been released. It includes both footage from the making of the film and some brand new scenes. While it doesn’t have as much new footage as previous featurettes, it does showcase more of the exciting fight between the villainous Evil-Lyn and Teela. These scenes are shown alongside footage of He-Man battling the Skel-Knights. You can watch the new footage in the video provided.

As a longtime watcher of Middle-earth unfold on screen, what always struck me is the sheer variety of its inhabitants. It’s not a world where everyone starts on equal footing. You see, some were literally made by the supreme creator, Ilúvatar, as part of his original plan for the world. Others… well, they sprung from darker sources, or were the result of lesser powers trying their hand at creation. This leads to a truly diverse cast of characters, each with their own unique origins and, naturally, power levels. It’s a fascinating world-building detail that really enriches the story.

You can now preorder Star Fox for the Nintendo Switch 2. What’s grabbing people’s attention isn’t just the game’s release, but how much it costs. The digital version is listed for $49.99, while physical copies are priced at $59.99 at stores like Best Buy. However, some retailers are already starting to lower the price of the physical version.

Prime Video posted a special version of the Boys reunion scene on X, reimagined with elements from Supernatural. It’s just as funny as the original, and maybe even funnier for fans of Supernatural. The scene begins similarly, but instead of attacking Homelander with poison gas, the character played by Collins knocks him out with the iconic angel touch used by Castiel.

The recent ending to My Hero Academia wasn’t groundbreaking, but it surprisingly improved the overall finale and felt like a natural conclusion. This approach could be really helpful for Chainsaw Man, another popular manga that recently finished its second part to widespread disappointment. Many fans were hoping for a continuation, and while that might not happen, an upcoming extra volume could learn from My Hero Academia’s ending and offer a more satisfying resolution to Chainsaw Man’s abrupt finish.

As a huge cinema fan, and especially of action movies, I’m already getting excited because it looks like Mortal Kombat 3 might actually happen – early numbers suggest it could be a big hit! It’s got me thinking, though: when could we realistically expect to see it in theaters, and what direction would the story even take? More than anything, I’m hoping the filmmakers bring in some of the other classic characters we all love from the games – there are so many possibilities!

The 2007 movie 30 Days of Night is based on the horror comic book of the same name by Steven Niles. Starring Josh Hartnett and Melissa George, the film tells the story of a small Alaskan town attacked by vampires during its month-long period of complete darkness. The movie was successful in theaters and led to a franchise, including two TV miniseries and a sequel called Dark Days.

Prime Video is moving forward with its adaptation of the comic series Sex Criminals, and has now cast its lead actors. Imogen Poots (known for The Chronology of Water) and John Reynolds (Seekers of Infinite Love) will star as Suze and Jon, respectively. Both actors are expected to deliver strong performances, adding to the anticipation for what is already considered a highly promising series.

It’s no surprise that Hideaki Nishino’s recent comments have sparked criticism online, but it’s important to understand exactly what he said before reacting.
