Despite being a central figure in the Star Wars saga, there are still surprising discoveries to be made about Anakin Skywalker, even in films that have been out for years.

Perhaps the most memorable closing line in TV history was “Goodnight, John-Boy,” from the end of each episode of The Waltons.

The show was praised for its touching stories and talented actors, but it’s also remembered for that now-iconic farewell.

The new FIFA World Cup: Launch Edition game is coming to Netflix on June 11th. It’s a fast-paced, arcade-style sports game designed for today’s players. During a preview event in Los Angeles, ComicBook tested the game on phones with a match between England and Argentina. It looks great for a game on a streaming service, and its simple controls, quick gameplay, and surprising depth make it a fantastic addition to Netflix’s games – and a strong case for bringing back the fun of playing with friends on the same couch.
