Even though some movie sequels don’t quite live up to the originals, they’re still worth watching. Good examples include The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
The “Heroes Reborn” reboot is widely considered a failure, leading to the termination of contracts with creators Lee and Liefeld (Liefeld’s after only six months). The story shifted heroes to an alternate universe and ultimately needed to bring them back, resulting in the follow-up series, Heroes Reborn: The Return, written by Peter David and illustrated by Salvador Larocca. This continuation faced a significant challenge due to the intense dislike for the original “Heroes Reborn.” However, surprisingly, Heroes Reborn: The Return is a fantastic story, making the difficult experience of reading “Heroes Reborn” worthwhile. It’s a hidden masterpiece and a prime example of a well-executed comic event.
I was honestly shocked when Courage the Cowardly Dog disappeared from HBO Max! It first came out on Cartoon Network way back in 1999, and it was such a unique show. It blended really funny moments with genuinely scary stuff, so poor Courage was always rescuing his owners, Mabel and Eustace, from some crazy situation. There really hasn’t been another Warner Bros. series quite like it. Luckily, Tubi is picking it up next month, which is awesome because a whole new audience will get to experience the weird and wonderful world of Courage in that desolate desert! With four seasons and over fifty episodes, it’s a show that’s definitely earned its place as a fan favorite, and I’m so glad it’s finding a new home.
After recent staff reductions left a small team working on the game, it appears the online shooter is likely to be shut down. Its official website is currently inaccessible, and has been for most of today. Wildlight, the game’s developer, hasn’t made any public statement about the issue. Their last official update was about a new game patch released on February 12th.
The new trailer beautifully showcases the world of The Living Lands and the freedom players have to create their own unique character, The Envoy. It demonstrates a diverse range of builds, with different races, skills, and playstyles – something RPG fans will love! You’ll determine how to interact with The Living Lands, and your choices will have lasting consequences.
The show leaves out and alters parts of the original story to fit everything into a shorter episode count. With the source material—a manga with over 1100 chapters and ongoing—a complete adaptation would be incredibly long if it didn’t cut content. This means some less important characters won’t make it into the live-action version. As the second season nears, fans haven’t even seen Karoo, Princess Vivi’s beloved pet duck, suggesting he may be excluded as well.
The complicated situation with Spider-Man’s TV and movie rights started when Sony first obtained the rights to make both live-action and animated Spider-Man content. They initially used this to create shows like Spider-Man: The New Animated Series for MTV. Things changed when Sony and Marvel began talks about bringing Spider-Man into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). To allow Spider-Man to appear in MCU films and receive financial benefits, Sony reportedly gave Marvel back the rights to create animated TV shows, but with strict rules about how those shows could be made. This resulted in a split system where Sony controls Spider-Man in movies, while Marvel handles animated TV series.
The second season of Daredevil: Born Again will bring back some familiar faces, including Lili Taylor (known from The Conjuring) as New York Governor Marge McCaffrey, and Matthew Lillard (of Scream fame) as a character named Mr. Charles. Lillard’s role is described as someone influential who starts to cause problems for the Kingpin in the worlds of politics and international relations, but this description feels unclear for a character played by such a well-known actor within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This raises the question: who exactly is Mr. Charles?
Netflix’s upcoming live-action Scooby-Doo series has its first star! Mckenna Grace will play Daphne in the eight-episode show, as reported by Deadline. Grace excitedly confirmed the news on social media, expressing her gratitude and enthusiasm. Now that Grace is cast, announcements about the rest of the Mystery, Inc. gang are expected soon. These reveals could also give fans a better idea of the show’s overall tone, which should please horror enthusiasts.
One of the most puzzling aspects of the show is how it handled House Stark, a long-established and important family, and the core of many storylines. While you wait for the finale of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, let’s explore the most confusing moments involving House Stark.
