As a big cinema fan, I’m really excited about this new Funko Pop! It’s Kane from Alien, and you can get it with a standard facehugger or a special ‘Chase’ version that recreates that unforgettable chestburster moment from the original 1979 film. Honestly, you can’t go wrong with either, but collectors are definitely going to want to hunt down that Chase – it’s the one to get, in my opinion. You can pre-order it now from Entertainment Earth or Amazon for $14.99.

Variety reports that Fire and Ash is expected to earn between $90 and $105 million in its opening weekend in the US and Canada, with worldwide earnings projected to be between $340 and $365 million. While these numbers are strong, they’re lower than the opening weekend for Avatar: The Way of Water three years ago, which made $134.1 million domestically and $441.7 million globally. However, Fire and Ash is predicted to perform better than the original Avatar, which debuted with $77 million in the US and $241.6 million worldwide.

Released in the United States on December 17, 2021—exactly four years ago—Spider-Man: No Way Home became the highest-grossing live-action Spider-Man movie ever. Directed by Jon Watts, the film earned an impressive $1.921 billion worldwide. No Way Home concluded the “Home Trilogy,” finishing Tom Holland’s journey as Spider-Man and setting up major changes for the character within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which will continue in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.

While Adam Sandler is well-known for his comedies, focusing only on those films overlooks his impressive dramatic talent. He consistently surprises audiences and critics with powerful, nuanced performances, stepping away from his usual comedic style every few years. He’s also collaborated with highly acclaimed directors, demonstrating that the actor behind silly songs is capable of leading serious, character-driven films. This combination of lighthearted and intense roles makes his body of work particularly fascinating, constantly shifting between easy entertainment and gripping drama.

I often finished role-playing games feeling like I had a detailed character in my mind, but their actions in the game felt limited. While I could make choices about things like dialogue, alliances, and equipment, the game always seemed to expect me to be a good person. It was rare to have the option to be selfish, cruel, or simply destructive – most RPGs don’t really let you play as the bad guy.

The 2020 comedy Guest House, starring Pauly Shore, is leaving Netflix on December 18th. The movie, which received negative reviews, follows a couple who discover their guest house is already occupied by a wild partygoer with a strange collection. It was released digitally and features Mike Castle, Aimeé Teegarden, Billy Zane, Steve-O, Charlotte McKinney, and Mikaela Hoover alongside Shore. It was co-written and directed by Sam Macaroni.

I was so excited when Hunted Cow Games announced Fallen Sword 2 on December 17th! As a long-time fan, I’ve been waiting for this! It’s coming out in the third quarter of 2026, just in time to celebrate the series’ 20th anniversary. And it’s already on Steam, which is awesome – it looks like this sequel will be a different experience than the original Fallen Sword, which was entirely web-based. Here’s everything I’ve found out about it so far.

A new set of Demon Slayer Funko Pops is available today, featuring black and white versions of Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu, Inosuke, and Rengoku. These Pops highlight the unique shading and details of each character. Entertainment Earth also has an exclusive Sumi-Ink version of Shinobu Kocho, bringing the total number of figures in this style to six. You can pre-order them now at Entertainment Earth, and direct links to Amazon will be added soon.

As a huge Flash fan, I’ve been really intrigued by how they’re handling Eobard Thawne in the Absolute Flash storyline. It’s funny, we haven’t gotten a ton of screen time with him directly, but there have been some fascinating flashbacks, especially in Absolute Flash #8. These showed that this world’s Thawne was a genius scientist during WWII who actually stumbled upon a dimension of pure energy. Sadly, his risky experiments went wrong, and both he and Jay Garrick vanished. But let’s be real, any Flash fan knows that when the Reverse-Flash seems gone, that’s usually when he makes his biggest move!

This guide will show you precisely where to go, what to do if the decryption doesn’t work, and how to complete the quest in just one raid, saving you time and effort.
