Mel Brooks’ hilarious parody film, Spaceballs, celebrated nearly 40 years since its release, is now available to stream on both HBO Max and Tubi. The movie, which premiered on January 1st, features Bill Pullman, John Candy, Rick Moranis, and Daphne Zuniga. It playfully spoofs popular science fiction movies and follows the adventures of Lone Starr, a daring space pilot, and his comical sidekick, Barf—a half-man, half-dog—as they race to prevent the villainous Dark Helmet from stealing a planet’s oxygen.

Following the conflict between the Avengers and the X-Men, Cyclops and Captain America were openly hostile towards each other. Captain America wanted to arrest Cyclops for his radical behavior and the death of Professor X, while Cyclops viewed Captain America as a hypocrite for not doing more to help mutants. In A+X #13, both were unexpectedly forced to team up by a Skrull named K’Thron to prevent an invasion of Earth by super-powered mutant Skrulls. K’Thron wasn’t aware of the deep-seated animosity between them at the time.

This year has seen a lot of new animated movies released, from big studios like Disney, DreamWorks, and Sony Pictures Animation, as well as smaller, independent ones. Films such as David, The Bad Guys 2, Fixed, and In Your Dreams have all gotten attention, but only the very best stand out. Here’s my list of the top 10 animated movies of 2025.

The third season of Primal kicks off by immediately revealing how Spear was resurrected. The previous season ended with him facing a powerful, supernatural enemy – a result of a Viking’s desire for revenge. This Viking enhanced his opponent with magic, leading to a deadly fight where Spear tragically died. Now, thanks to the same mystical forces seen throughout Primal, Spear has returned. You can watch the entire premiere episode of the Adult Swim series below.

By the end of Avatar: Fire and Ash, Pandora remains largely unchanged. While the RDA’s plan to hunt the Tulkun has been stopped, the human corporation still controls a presence on the planet. Meanwhile, Colonel Quaritch has teamed up with the Ash People, but becomes disappointed with the RDA’s actions. The film concludes with him leaping from a high cliff, leaving his future uncertain and setting the stage for the next movie.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Warner Bros. has announced several new movies coming to theaters. These include The Great Beyond, a film by J.J. Abrams, scheduled for November 13th, Panic Carefully from Mr. Robot creator Sam Esmail on February 26, 2027, and a prequel to The Conjuring, titled The Conjuring: First Communion, which will be released on September 10, 2027.

On January 17, 1978, Marvel Comics revamped its Power Man comic book with issue number 50, retitling it Power Man and Iron Fist. This change proved to be a huge success, rescuing both characters from potential cancellation and launching what many fans consider Marvel’s greatest team-up.

As the episode ended, it became clear that the most important task for the sorcerers is figuring out how to free Gojo Satoru, who’s currently sealed away. Tengen gave them some crucial information, and they already had one piece of the puzzle – the back side of the Prison Realm. This led to two possible ways to unseal Gojo, but it’s ironic that he actually destroyed the tools needed for both – the Inverted Spear of Heaven and the Black Rope. Luckily, Tengen also mentioned a third option: a sorcerer currently competing in the Culling Game, known as Angel, has a cursed technique that could potentially break the seal on Gojo.

At the end of 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, Kelson discovers something that could fundamentally alter the world depicted in these movies. Warning: Major spoilers ahead! Continue reading only if you’re okay with learning the details.

The action game genre hasn’t seen much exciting news lately, with only Black Myth: Wukong’s 2024 release generating significant buzz. The lack of updates on Devil May Cry and the disappointing Bayonetta 3 were partially offset by the release of Ninja Gaiden 4 late last year. While Ninja Gaiden 4 wasn’t perfect, fans are hoping the major action game slated for 2026 will be a complete success.
