The final episodes of Stranger Things will be available on Netflix December 31st at 5pm Pacific Time. This extended episode will wrap up the popular 1980s sci-fi series after almost ten years. Plus, starting January 1st, 2026, Netflix will add a variety of movies, including Dune, Hellboy, and Despicable Me.
We previously shared 7 sci-fi shows that have faded from memory. But that was just a small selection – there are tons of these series out there! So, here are 7 more that most people have forgotten.
Some partnerships work well because of differences – think of the classic pairing of intelligence and strength, or order and chaos. But others are based on shared beliefs, or even a shared path of destruction. Sometimes they’re both manipulative and encourage each other’s schemes, or they might be connected by a difficult experience that only they can truly understand. What makes anime duos so interesting is that their bond doesn’t always need to be about finding balance.
All types of media – from movies and TV shows to books and video games – face the risk of being cancelled before they’re finished. Comic books are also vulnerable, and unfortunately, these particular series were stopped before their creators could finish telling their stories.
Many games playfully reference older titles and gaming history, using humor and nods to classic games. Bradley the Badger seems to be a charming example of this, and looks like a lot of fun. If you’re looking forward to Bradley’s adventure, it’s worth checking out a similarly funny game from almost twenty years ago that also poked fun at popular 2000s game genres.
Fans are wondering why Monica Rambeau isn’t featured in any promotional material for Avengers: Doomsday. A recent post on X questioned if Marvel is deliberately downplaying her role in the movie. There’s a lot of speculation about the reason, but much of it seems tied to past criticisms of female heroes in Marvel films, particularly the negative reaction to The Marvels from people who didn’t even see it.
As a huge My Hero Academia fan, I was so fascinated to hear Clifford Chapin, the voice of Bakugo, talk about recording the final battle! He said it was incredibly draining, not just saying the lines, but really living them. He described it as physically exhausting, especially because Bakugo is literally fighting for his life – imagine breathing heavily after having your chest ripped open! It really shows how much dedication he puts into the role, making it feel so real for us as viewers.
That scene happens near the end of the movie, after Jinu gives his life for Rumi, transferring his soul’s energy to her. Rumi, Mira, and Zoey then combine their power with the energy of the people to create a new Honmoon, which once again shields the world from the demons. Importantly, this new Honmoon isn’t golden – it begins as blue and shifts into a rainbow hue, indicating it’s not fully formed, and setting up the story for KPop Demon Hunters 2.
It was really enjoyable to see characters like Deadpool playfully bother Batman. Equally fun was watching magical conversations between Constantine and Doctor Strange, or seeing Green Arrow team up with Daredevil in a story that clearly understood both heroes. This year brought a surprising number of team-ups between Marvel and DC characters, and thankfully, the two publishers are planning even more for 2026, featuring Spider-Man and Superman. But first, let’s look back at 5 of the best Marvel/DC crossovers from 2025.
The anime’s quality dipped, and fan complaints led many to believe the show might be cancelled or significantly changed. However, that fear proved unfounded. Season 3 isn’t over and will return with a second part in 2027, as announced on the official One-Punch Man anime X account shortly after today’s final episode. Considering the strong negative reaction to this season, the announcement came as a surprise, and has already sparked criticism from fans who have legitimate concerns.
