One major letdown was The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, released in theaters on March 10, 1989. While the film felt similar to Terry Gilliam’s work with Monty Python, it only earned $8.1 million despite costing $46.6 million to make. However, over time, it’s become a beloved cult classic.
For example, it’s been five years since Star Wars bothered to fully explain the backstory of its most popular sequel trilogy character. What’s really disappointing isn’t the complexity of that backstory, but the fact that many fans still aren’t even aware it exists, almost ten years later.
Sony struggled with its previous handheld consoles because they used unique, proprietary media formats. The PlayStation Vita, released in 2012, was their attempt to fix this, featuring a 5-inch OLED touchscreen and controls similar to other PlayStation consoles. However, the Vita faced tough competition from the growing popularity of tablets and mobile games on smartphones, leading to estimated sales of under 16 million units. While it had a good selection of downloadable games, many fans disliked the high cost of its proprietary memory cards. Ultimately, the Vita wasn’t a commercial success and is likely to be Sony’s last dedicated handheld gaming device for the foreseeable future.
As a lifelong comic book fan, I’ve always been fascinated by the Justice League – they’ve had so many members over the years! With icons like Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman leading the charge, it’s easy for some really cool heroes to get overlooked and kind of forgotten. Honestly, I think DC should really bring some of those sidelined Justice Leaguers back into the spotlight – they deserve a bigger role in future stories, in my opinion.

I think Super Mario Galaxy is the ideal choice for a sequel. As someone who grew up playing the Wii, it was a favorite game of mine, and I’m really excited to see what the team creates with this new version. Fortunately, we won’t have to wait long – it’s scheduled to release on April 1st. Plus, we’re already getting a sneak peek at the film’s design and details with the release of new merchandise.
Milana Vayntrub, the actress who played Squirrel Girl, recently reaffirmed how much she loves the character and expressed her willingness to reprise the role. During a Reddit “Ask Me Anything” session promoting her new show, Bad Shabbos on Netflix, she was asked if she’d ever play Squirrel Girl in a live-action project again, especially now that she’s also voicing the character in the Marvel Rivals game. Vayntrub responded with clear excitement, saying she’d happily play Squirrel Girl in any capacity, even at a child’s birthday party! It’s safe to say she’s very enthusiastic about returning to the role.
Last year, Eric Kripke, the creator of The Boys, announced that the animated spinoff series, The Boys Presents: Diabolical, wouldn’t be returning to Prime Video. The show featured self-contained stories exploring the lives of different superheroes within the same universe, occasionally including characters like Homelander. Despite receiving positive reviews – a 97% score on Rotten Tomatoes – Kripke initially said the show was cancelled because of low viewership. However, in a recent interview with Polygon, the showrunner Simon Racioppa explained the real reason behind the cancellation.
