Games

I’m so excited to hear that Netflix is bringing Ticket to Ride to life! I’ve always loved that board game, and it’s fantastic news that they’re developing both movies and TV shows based on it. Apparently, they’re starting with a feature film written by Ben Mekler and Chris Amick – I can’t wait to see how they translate the game’s strategy and adventure onto the big screen. It’s such a unique project, and I think Netflix is really onto something here!

Trachtenberg has plans for at least two big Predator movies, and they could start filming as soon as Disney and 20th Century Studios approve them. There’s also a third, currently unannounced film potentially in development – here’s a full rundown of what’s happening!

As a huge fan, I really think the Apple TV series needs to not just be faithful to the books – it needs to exceed expectations. To become the next massive fantasy hit, it can’t just cater to those of us who already love Brandon Sanderson’s work; it needs to draw in a whole new audience too. I know adapting The Stormlight Archive will be incredibly difficult, but thankfully, there are a lot of successful fantasy shows out there that can offer some good examples of how to do it right.

The update will include the following content:

Fans of Yona of the Dawn have a lot to look forward to in 2026, with both a sequel to the anime and new manga volumes expected. This month, the manga creator also celebrated the birthday of a lesser-known character, Algira, who hasn’t appeared in the anime yet. Because Algira loves cats, the creator chose February 22nd – Japanese Cat Day – as his birthday and shared a beautiful illustration of him on their official X account.

Originally airing on CBS from 1993 to 1999, The Nanny starred Fran Drescher, who also co-created the show with Peter Marc Jacobson. The series centers around a stylish saleswoman from Queens who unexpectedly becomes the nanny to three children of a Broadway producer. The show was a hit with both critics and fans, and after being available on different streaming platforms, all six seasons will now be available on Hulu starting March 18th.

This series brought together all the classic Looney Tunes characters in a fun experiment! Each special featured two stories: a main crossover adventure (though things always got a little wacky with this crew!) and a shorter, more traditional cartoon. In total, DC Comics fans enjoyed 12 crossover stories, and you might be curious about which ones are the most enjoyable. While they all have their charm, these 5 crossovers really stand out as the best of this unusual and memorable collaboration.

We’ve been focusing on films directly based on Richard Matheson’s original stories, but there are a few things we’ve excluded. We didn’t include made-for-TV movies, or films where he simply wrote a new screenplay – even if it was brilliant! For example, he adapted classics like Poe’s “The Fall of the House of Usher” and “The Pit and the Pendulum” into films, and he contributed to movies like a segment of Twilight Zone: The Movie and even helped write Jaws 3. Also, we’ve left out adaptations of his books that weren’t science fiction or fantasy – things like The Young Warriors, Cold Sweat, and The Legend of Hell House. I’m really trying to focus on the core of his sci-fi and fantasy work!

Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece has been running since 1997 and is approaching its 30th anniversary. While manga and anime have become popular in the West, live-action versions have often disappointed fans. So, when a live-action One Piece series was announced, many were doubtful. However, the show, released in August 2023, proved to be a huge success, exceeding expectations. It’s a great way for newcomers to experience the world of One Piece, and with Season 2 arriving soon, it’s a perfect time to start watching.

To celebrate her birthday on February 24th, a cute, simplified illustration of the Insect Hashira has been released. She’s shown wearing a light-colored outfit and carrying flowers. The artwork features a purple background, matching her character’s colors. Ufotable is also promoting new merchandise inspired by this illustration, which you can find on their official online store.
