The world of The Mandalorian has expanded to theaters, but the movie The Mandalorian and Grogu is performing poorly at the box office – actually, it has the worst numbers of any Star Wars film. This likely stems from the negative reaction to recent shows and movies in that universe. The storyline has become complicated and confusing, with many plot points that don’t quite add up.

As a huge Marvel fan, I’m so hyped that we’re finally getting closer to the release of Marvel’s Wolverine! The trailer was amazing – seeing Jean Grey and those brutal, realistic claw fights really got me excited. I was checking out the interview Insomniac did with IGN after the State of Play, and one thing they said has me a little worried. Apparently, Wolverine is going to be a lot more focused and story-driven than the Spider-Man games. While I loved swinging around a huge open-world New York in those games, it sounds like Wolverine will be much more linear. I’m still excited, but it might not be the same kind of free-roaming experience some of us were hoping for.

Despite a troubled production filled with creative disagreements and lawsuits, the 1984 film The NeverEnding Story was a huge hit. It received excellent reviews and earned $100 million worldwide – a significant amount for the time – becoming Germany’s top-grossing domestic film that year. The film’s use of practical effects – like animatronic creatures, detailed sets, and puppetry that brought the luck dragon Falkor to life – have held up remarkably well over the years. Young actors Barret Oliver, Noah Hathaway, and Tami Stronach also delivered captivating performances. The film’s theme song, sung by Limahl, even experienced a resurgence in popularity when featured in the third season of Stranger Things in 2019, introducing the story to a new audience. By every measure, The NeverEnding Story is a successful and beloved cult classic, and a remake could potentially build on that success.

Now that the Switch 2 has been out for a year, it’s a good time to assess what it’s doing well and where it’s struggling.

Considering everything, is the Switch 2 living up to expectations?

Aside from famous actors, a few performers secretly achieved something remarkable: they voiced both Superman and Spider-Man. This often happened in animated projects or video games, where it’s easier to juggle schedules and appearances. Voice directors could focus on finding the best voice for the character without worrying about physical appearance or live-action constraints.
