Director Gore Verbinski recently told Screen Rant that he doesn’t plan to direct any future Pirates of the Caribbean movies. While wishing the franchise well, he explained that he feels he’s already explored what he wanted to with the series after directing three films. He believes a project loses its spark once you’ve mastered it, and with limited time and endless story possibilities, he’s ready to move on. “I feel like I did three and, for me, it was a great opportunity to learn and to try something,” he said. “I think we have to be at a place where the wheels are about to fall off… There’s just so little time, and there are so many stories to tell.”

We don’t fully understand how powerful Simon is until the end of Wonder Man. He demonstrates his incredible strength by completely destroying the show’s set, and Damage Control learns his abilities are linked to a unique energy source called “ionic energy.” Remarkably, he even breaks out of a high-security prison to save Trevor Slattery, blasting right through the ceiling. Given how little we’ve seen, it’s difficult to say how his powers stack up against those of the Avengers.

Darth Maul was a truly memorable character. His striking, menacing appearance and the unique double-bladed lightsaber – something I’d only seen in Star Wars comics previously – made a huge impression. Lucasfilm was smart to feature him heavily in the movie’s promotion, even if his screen time ended up being relatively short. Those six minutes were enough to establish him as an iconic Sith Lord, and I specifically remember online fans debating just how powerful he was compared to Darth Vader.

As a sci-fi fan, it’s been amazing to see books like Dune and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? become huge movies. But there are still some novels that just seem… impossible to adapt. Seriously, you could give them a massive budget, the best special effects, and a brilliant director, and I still think it wouldn’t capture what makes the book special. We’re seeing attempts with books like Dan Simmons’ Hyperion, which is cool, but the novels on this list? I honestly think they’re just too difficult to even try and bring to the screen.

When Family Guy first premiered on Fox 27 years ago today – January 31, 1999 – it made a huge splash, debuting immediately after Super Bowl XXXIII. Airing a show after the Super Bowl was considered a prime opportunity, signaling Fox’s confidence in the series. However, the show’s full impact and lasting success wouldn’t be felt for many years to come.

The Batman we know from the main DC comics isn’t the only one. Because the DC Multiverse is so expansive, many different versions of Batman exist, and some are even stronger – and much scarier. Here’s a look at 10 of the most powerful alternate Batmans from across the DC Multiverse.

February brings a lot of romantic options to streaming services, with plenty of comedies, thrillers, sci-fi, and more to choose from. While there aren’t a ton of major new original releases this month, some popular movies and shows are moving to different platforms, so it’s a good idea to check where your favorites are now if you can’t find them where you expect.

While this series doesn’t rely on flashy visuals, it’s easily the most captivating Marvel show released so far. It really highlights the talent of co-creator Destin Daniel Cretton, who is quickly becoming one of the MCU’s key directors. Though every episode is solid, not all of them are perfect. Let’s take a look at how they all stack up, from the first episode to the last.

During a recent interview, the team behind the anime My Dress-Up Darling discussed their work on the second season. However, producer Shota Umehara stated that there are currently no plans for a third season. He explained that they haven’t started planning anything for a potential third season, but they would like to make one if the opportunity arises.

While they might not always get the spotlight, certain Avengers are incredibly valuable members of the team. These heroes are often underestimated, but they’ve consistently proven their strength and have been crucial in saving the day on numerous occasions.
