As a huge movie fan, I’m really excited about the *Wicked* sequel! One of the coolest things they’re adding is the famous group from the original *Wizard of Oz*. We’ve seen glimpses in the trailers, but it’s becoming clear that Dorothy, the Cowardly Lion, the Scarecrow, and the Tin Man will play a big role in connecting both stories. The latest trailer finally gave us our first look at how they’re bringing the Tin Man and the Scarecrow to life, and it looks amazing!

It’s still a bit unclear what to make of *Starfighter*, which has been kept largely under wraps. We knew big stars like Ryan Gosling, Matt Smith, and Mia Goth were involved, but details were scarce. Now, thanks to a report from John Rocha at *The Hot Mic*, we have a better idea of the plot-and it’s quite different from what many expected. According to Rocha, the story centers on a young boy who is strong with the Force. Amy Adams plays his mother, who appears to be a Jedi. While Ryan Gosling isn’t a Jedi himself, he’s helping his nephew escape two villains who are pursuing him throughout the galaxy, on a mission given to him by Adams.

Recently, we’ve seen a lot of older games updated or re-released, but nothing compares to a completely new game in a series people already love. Nintendo has several well-known franchises that haven’t had new installments in a long time, and their fans are eager for a return. As Nintendo enters a new generation with the Switch 2, it’s time to bring these classic series back with modern updates.

Marvel Studios is now focusing on animation to create fresh stories and explore different possibilities, something they’ve done well with the series *What If…?* For example, it featured an interesting take on T’Challa as Star-Lord. However, the release of the spin-off *Marvel Zombies* – a storyline fans have anticipated for decades – is starting to overshadow the original *What If…?* series.

ComicBook recently spoke with several stars of *Futurama* – Billy West (the voice of Fry, Professor Farnsworth, and Zoidberg), Lauren Tom (Amy), and Phil Lamarr (Hermes) – about the show’s return. They all shared their enthusiasm about continuing with the series, and expressed hope for even more seasons beyond the already confirmed Season 14 on Hulu, as long as the show continues to be made.

Square Enix has been focusing a lot on updating older games like *Final Fantasy Tactics*, the *Dragon Quest* series, and *Final Fantasy VII Remake*, but they’ve largely overlooked a really interesting project from the past. I think it’s time they revisited *Vagrant Story*. It’s a game that deserves more attention.

These five MCU movies aren’t as good today as they were at the time of their release.

If you haven’t tried the newest *Silent Hill* game yet, be aware that it’s quite a departure from the older, classic *Silent Hill* titles. This difference is even more noticeable since fans recently received a very faithful remake of *Silent Hill 2*. So, if you were hoping *Silent Hill F* would continue that classic style, you might find it doesn’t quite meet your expectations.

The 1980s saw some huge movie franchises begin, but many other popular films never got sequels, despite being well-received. These weren’t obscure or small films – they were often made by major studios, starred famous actors, and sometimes even did well in theaters. However, they remained standalone movies, for better or worse. Here are five sci-fi films from the ’80s that generated a lot of buzz but didn’t lead to any sequels.
