Fourteen years after the first Thor film, a clear, consistent portrayal of the character still hasn’t emerged – a situation that mirrors the way Thor’s character has evolved over many years in the comic books.
Twenty years ago, a team-up like this seemed impossible. It began with a crossover between two popular DC Comics series from the mid-2000s: Teen Titans and The Outsiders. Teen Titans brought together Superboy, Tim Drake, Bart Allen, and Cassie Sandsmark with established heroes like Raven, Cyborg, Starfire, and Beast Boy. This series revealed that Superboy’s genetic parents were Superman and Lex Luthor. At the same time, The Outsiders introduced Indigo, a character created by Brainiac. Everything culminated in a story called “The Insiders,” where Superman’s two biggest enemies attempted to use their children to dismantle the future of superheroes.
A new trailer combines gameplay with some cinematic shots, and it looks like a seriously fun time:
More details about the cast of The Batman Part II have been announced. Production on the sequel is set to begin this spring, and Deadline reports that Sebastian Stan will join the film, acting alongside Robert Pattinson as Batman and his former Marvel co-star, Scarlett Johansson. While it’s interesting to see another Marvel actor join a DC movie, the biggest questions now are: what character will Stan play, and how will this affect his role in future Marvel projects?
Cartoon Network’s Teen Titans Go has often divided viewers, with many feeling it doesn’t compare to the original Teen Titans show. However, despite the criticism, the series isn’t disappearing from streaming. Currently, the first five seasons are on Netflix, while the latest two seasons are available on Max. If you want to watch everything, Hulu has all the episodes. This split across platforms means you’ll need to keep track of where each season is located. Recently, Warner Bros. has faced some issues regarding the Teen Titans franchise.
The new NBA 2K26 update is available now and gets things ready for Season 4, which launches this week on January 9th. While all the details aren’t available yet, the update includes changes to player and coach appearances, as well as some team jerseys.
To play the game, a minimum setup includes an Intel Core i5-9500K or AMD Ryzen 5 3500 processor, an Nvidia GTX 1660 or AMD Radeon RX 5700 (or similar Intel graphics card) with 8 GB of video memory, and 16 GB of RAM for 1080p resolution at 30 frames per second. For a smoother experience, we recommend an Intel Core i5-13500 or AMD Ryzen 5 7600, an RTX 3060 Ti or Radeon RX 6700 XT (or similar Intel graphics card) with 12 GB of video memory, and 32 GB of RAM.
Marvel faces the inevitable task of reimagining some of its most popular heroes. While there’s always concern about changing iconic roles, history shows it doesn’t kill a character’s appeal. Consider James Bond, played by six different actors (with another on the way), or Superman and Batman, each portrayed by multiple performers. To keep the Marvel Cinematic Universe thriving beyond the Multiverse Saga, Marvel will likely need to recast some key heroes in the coming years.
Sam Raimi, through his production company Ghost House Pictures, has been involved in creating several successful horror films, including The Grudge series, 30 Days of Night, Don’t Breathe, and Crawl – movies that still scare audiences today. After directing OZ The Great and Powerful in 2013, Raimi took a break from directing, returning in 2022 with the Marvel film Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. While that movie had some horror elements, it’s been almost twenty years since he’s directed a full-on horror film. That changes soon with the release of Send Help, a new film directed by Raimi, in theaters in just a few weeks.
