Nintendo just released another trailer for the upcoming movie, but this one is being billed as the last one. This likely means fans shouldn’t expect any more dedicated presentation events before the film’s release. It still leaves you wondering what surprises are left, considering previous trailers have already shown off locations from Super Mario Odyssey, revealed Yoshi battling a T. rex with a Super Scope, introduced Rosalina, and featured Bowser Jr., among other things.

The expansion of the Game of Thrones universe isn’t likely to stop anytime soon. Several prequel and sequel projects are in the works, including an animated series focusing on Corlys Velaryon and a potential show about Arya Stark’s adventures beyond Westeros. The biggest project, however, is a Game of Thrones movie. Reportedly written by Beau Willimon (known for House of Cards and Andor), it will tell the story of Aegon’s Conquest. Interestingly, this idea echoes the original plan for the TV show’s ending. Showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss initially proposed concluding the series with three full-length movies for theaters, but HBO declined, preferring to focus on television content.

If you’re new to this storyline, a great place to start is the graphic novel Batman and Son. It includes the main story of that name, plus a few standalone issues, including the excellent Batman #666. This collection introduces Damian Wayne, Batman’s son, and also sets up other important characters and plot points, like Bruce Wayne’s new love interest, Jezebel Jet, and the mysterious Three Ghosts of Batman. If you enjoy this, you’re in for a treat – the story only gets more exciting!

Given all the excitement leading up to the release of Marathon, it’s no surprise Steam experienced some difficulties when the game launched. Considering how popular shooters like Counter-Strike 2 and PUBG: Battlegrounds have been – consistently topping the charts for most-played games on Steam – I thought Marathon would quickly climb the ranks. However, Slay the Spire 2 has completely surpassed it, and most other popular games on the platform, in terms of player count.

POP MART is celebrating 10 years of its popular THE MONSTERS series with an exciting new collaboration! They’re bringing together the worlds of LABUBU and Sanrio, two incredibly popular character franchises.

The broadcast will show the final trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. It won’t include any details about video games.

Some movie franchises lack a consistent creative vision – a key person who oversees each sequel and ensures everything fits together. While not essential – the recent Planet of the Apes films, for example, didn’t harm the originals – this consistency is really important for maintaining a cohesive story. Without it, franchises can become so disjointed that new installments feel completely unrelated to what came before, effectively breaking the established storyline. These are prime examples of when a movie series loses its way.

The arcade game Alien vs. Predator came out shortly after the SNES version, but the two games are very different. This arcade title is a beat ‘em up where players choose from four characters – two Predators (Warrior and Hunter), and two cyborgs: Maj. Dutch Schaefer (based on Arnold Schwarzenegger’s character from Predator) and Lt. Linn Kurosawa. Each character has unique moves and powers, and this arcade game proved to be much more successful than the SNES version.

Though created outside the US, the sci-fi series Dark gained a huge following with its intriguing ideas and complex plot, much like shows such as Lost and From. The creators of Dark, Jantje Friese and Baran bo Odar, are now working on a new series for Netflix. This show won’t be a continuation of Dark, but it will bring back some of the original cast, including Lisa Vicari. The new series, which doesn’t have a title yet, is based on a particularly unsettling book.

Look, “One More Day” has always been a really divisive story, but as someone who’s dug deep into its origins, I think there’s a side to it people often miss. Those of us who truly dislike it have spent time researching how it came to be, and it’s fascinating to learn just how many big-name Marvel creators had a hand in it – including Mark Millar. He joined Marvel in 2000 and quickly became a major force. He was a big brainstorming contributor – for instance, he’s the one who pushed for Wolverine and Spider-Man to join the Avengers, essentially trying to make that team more like DC’s Justice League. And that wasn’t a one-off; he brought in a lot of DC-style thinking that really shaped “One More Day” into the story we all know – and often argue about!
