Just a year after the original King Kong came out, the filmmaker announced plans for a sequel. He reasoned that just because a character like Steve McQueen dies in one film doesn’t mean he can’t star in another, and that Kong was a star who deserved another story. This somewhat shaky logic eventually led to King Kong Lives… though it didn’t appear until a full decade later, and is actually set at that time.

Many of gaming’s most popular stories didn’t have clear endings from the start. They evolved through periods of doubt, intense discussions between the writers, and bold creative decisions. The finished stories feel inevitable now, but that feeling is often carefully crafted. There were actually other possibilities – different choices for beloved characters and completely different outcomes. Here are three famous games that almost had very surprising endings.

Image Comics publishes a lot of fantastic books, and their science fiction titles are particularly strong. Several of these stories have the potential to become blockbuster movies and launch successful franchises, earning their creators significant wealth.

As a big fan of quality content, I’m really excited about Monday! That’s when Netflix is dropping the first new episodes of Sesame Street since the show made the move from HBO. It feels like a big moment for the streaming service and a great way to start the week.

The first season of Daredevil: Born Again concluded with Matt Murdock vowing to assemble a team to fight against Mayor Fisk and the task force opposing vigilantes. While it’s unknown who will join his cause, recent artwork shared on Instagram hints at the potential return of heroes from the old Marvel Netflix shows, like the Defenders, as well as appearances by Jon Bernthal’s Punisher and Tom Holland’s Spider-Man. With Kingpin’s new laws affecting all New York-based heroes in Daredevil: Born Again, fans are hoping to see these characters team up in the show’s second season.

Okay, so I recently picked up Dispatch by AdHoc Studio, and seriously, this game is amazing. It’s only thirty bucks, and it’s getting incredible reviews on both Steam and PlayStation 5. It came out on October 22nd, 2025, and people are loving it. What’s really cool is it’s not your typical action game – it’s a workplace comedy! You play as someone dispatching heroes around the city, but you also have to deal with all the office drama, build relationships, and even try to become a hero yourself. Your choices actually matter, which is awesome. I wasn’t expecting to get so hooked on a game like this!

It feels like everything old is new again these days. We’ve seen major revivals and returns of beloved characters and shows recently – from the original stars of Star Wars to reboots of classics like Twin Peaks and Frasier. Even actors like Sarah Michelle Gellar are revisiting iconic roles (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), and Robert Downey Jr. is switching gears after his time as Iron Man. With the upcoming Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum bringing back familiar faces, the possibility of a ninth season of Game of Thrones doesn’t seem so far-fetched.

Take-Two Interactive recently announced that Red Dead Redemption 2 has sold more than 79 million copies worldwide. This moves it ahead of Mario Kart 8 and into the top four best-selling games of all time. Only three games have sold more copies: Minecraft, Grand Theft Auto V, and Wii Sports – all incredibly popular titles.

The Super Mario Bros. series is so popular and has been around for so long that fans have had plenty of time to come up with their own ideas about what it all means. Some believe the heroes aren’t as good as they appear, while others use the established story to explain why characters act the way they do. Here are five of the most interesting fan theories about the series.

In a recent interview with Empire, Sigourney Weaver, star of The Mandalorian & Grogu, discussed her work on the film. She explained that a strong script initially attracted her to the project, and highlighted a shift in how Lucasfilm is approaching Star Wars movies. According to Weaver, Lucasfilm is no longer trying to create a definitive, overarching Star Wars saga, but instead focusing on letting the universe expand and telling compelling stories within it.
