DC’s New 52 reboot, which is celebrating its fifteenth anniversary this year, is often considered its most controversial. While it received a lot of criticism, it also had some bright spots. Over the next little while, we’ll be revisiting both the successes and failures of the New 52 to determine if it was ultimately a worthwhile change. Let’s get started!
Before the flood of modern superhero films, there were some hidden gems. Here are seven superhero movies from before the year 2000 that deserve a second look, including early works from directors like Wes Craven and Sam Raimi.
Lavalamp is a new, free-to-play PC game that offers a unique and psychedelic experience. You’ll explore a bizarre world and uncover the story of the Space Lemmings, who accidentally got trapped between dimensions while conducting experiments with breakfast cereal and the fabric of space and time. It’s definitely an unusual game, and likely unlike anything else you’ll play in 2026.
Okay, so everyone’s been wondering about a new Smash game, but it’s been super quiet. Sakurai, the guy who led the series for so long, has stepped back, and Nintendo hasn’t announced anything new. It feels like Smash is just… stuck right now. We all still play Ultimate a ton, but after years of waiting without knowing what’s next, the fanbase is getting pretty antsy. This series really thrives on constant excitement and new content, and honestly, that energy has died down a little.
The recent flashback dramatically changed how viewers see Loki, confirming he did kill his father with a powerful, unique weapon – a hybrid object that’s part squirrel. It also introduced Ragnir, the name of this weapon. While this reveal was surprising, it quickly became clear that Ragnir is heavily inspired by the mythological hammer Mjolnir from Norse legends. The story emphasizes that Ragnir’s powers and origins are rooted in classic Norse mythology, rather than the lightning-focused version seen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The film Cloverfield launched with a brilliant marketing strategy that really grabbed people’s attention and left them wanting to know more. While Cloverfield was good, the sequel actually surpassed it.
During her recent interview with Deadline, outgoing Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy shared updates on several Star Wars films currently in the works. This included a planned spinoff movie centered around Lando Calrissian, which Donald Glover has written a script for. Kennedy said the project is still possible, but its future will be decided by the new Lucasfilm presidents, Dave Filoni and Lynwen Brennan.
Even though fans are still hoping for news about a Bloodborne update, Ubisoft has announced that Far Cry 3: Classic Edition will be upgraded to run at 60 frames per second on the PlayStation 5, and they plan to do more upgrades in the future.
Expeditions in the game currently aren’t very engaging. Instead of feeling like important missions, they come across as repetitive tasks that don’t give players a strong reason to keep playing. Players are quickly losing interest as they try to complete them, and the developers have already acknowledged the system isn’t working as intended and needs improvement. While Expeditions are meant to be a key feature that keeps players coming back to Arc Raiders, they’re currently a source of frustration rather than excitement.
