Today, inXile Entertainment addressed the recent issue of accidentally offering the game Wasteland Remastered for free. Originally released in 2020, this updated version of the 1988 classic Wasteland came out just before Wasteland 3. Despite being almost 40 years old, the remaster significantly modernized the game and made it much easier to play.
The Universe 6 Saga is often considered one of the best storylines in the original Dragon Ball Super anime. While the setup before the battle between Universes 6 and 7 could be shortened in a revised version, the fights themselves are surprisingly well-paced and engaging.
The Harry Potter movies were a huge commercial success, earning over $7.7 billion globally. But because movies have limited running times, the screenwriters had to focus on the main plot, often simplifying or cutting the storylines of supporting characters that J.K. Rowling originally created. Now, with the HBO series having eight episodes in its first season, it has the opportunity to develop those characters and give them the depth they deserved.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard, played by Patrick Stewart, was key to the success of Star Trek: The Next Generation. He was known for his strong moral compass, especially when facing difficult situations, and his belief in the power of carefully chosen words. The character was so popular that Paramount+ brought him back in Star Trek: Picard, a three-season series from 2020-2023. The final season was particularly well-received, bringing together the original cast, and proved that Picard’s message still resonated with audiences.
Unfortunately, that project ultimately failed to make it over the finish line.
For a truly unsettling and emotionally powerful horror film, check out Lewis Teague’s Cujo, adapted from Stephen King’s 1981 novel. King himself considers it one of his best adaptations. Unlike many horror movies, Cujo builds tension through fear and desperation, rather than graphic violence. The story follows a mother and son stranded in their car, battling for survival against a St. Bernard that has become a terrifying, rabid beast. Cujo is now available to stream on Paramount+, as of April 1st.

It’s interesting how spin-off shows often feel extra satisfying when they succeed, simply because we’ve come to expect them to fail. They break a common pattern. And speaking of hidden gems, there’s a series with a dedicated following, connected to a consistently good show, that hardly anyone seems to talk about. While the internet endlessly discusses popular shows like Game of Thrones or Stranger Things, this one quietly delivers strong drama, well-developed characters, and a consistently compelling story – which is actually quite impressive.
