Rob Reiner’s classic 1990 film, Misery, will be leaving Netflix after a short run. It arrived on the platform March 1st and is scheduled to be removed on April 1st. Based on Stephen King’s 1987 novel, Misery is considered one of the best adaptations of his work, and it’s the only one to have won an Academy Award. Kathy Bates took home the Oscar for Best Actress for her performance as Annie Wilkes, a disturbing and obsessive former nurse who kidnaps her favorite author, Paul Sheldon, and forces him to rewrite his book. Bates also won a Golden Globe for the role, and the film received nominations for Saturn Awards in categories like Best Horror Film and Best Writing, though it didn’t win those awards.

I was so happy to hear that Disco Elysium 2 is still aiming for a 2026 release on PS5! ZA/UM confirmed it’s still happening, though they said it’ll probably be towards the end of the year rather than earlier. It’s good to know it’s still on track, even if we have to wait a little longer.

Crimson Desert is enjoyable, but it feels like a collection of ideas borrowed from other games. It’s a bit like a greatest-hits compilation you’d find at a bargain store – not necessarily bad, but lacking originality. We’re likely to see more games like this, especially in the free-to-play market, because developers are playing it safe and avoiding risks.

If you’ve enjoyed games like We Happy Few and Contrast from the same developer, South of Midnight offers a more straightforward action-adventure experience. You play as Hazel, searching for her mother, Lacey, after a devastating flood destroys their home and town. Hazel soon discovers she has unique powers as a Weaver, and must use them to mend the Grand Tapestry.

I know Balatro isn’t for everyone, and even some dedicated fans are now looking for their next favorite roguelike deckbuilder. If you’re among them, I’ve put together a great list of games.

Most of Green Lantern Volume 4, #10 centers on Hal Jordan handling disputes on Earth and doesn’t immediately involve Sinestro. Meanwhile, in Space Sector 674, the brutal alien Arkillo is defeating his enemies. As he consumes one foe, a yellow light appears, summoning a Yellow Lantern Ring. The ring has determined Arkillo is capable of inspiring intense fear, and formally recruits him into the Sinestro Corps – a powerful team of villains destined to reshape the universe.

After the success of Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, Disney tried to build a franchise. The sequel, Honey, I Blew Up the Kid, came out in 1992 and earned $58 million despite costing only $22 million to make. The franchise also expanded to Disney’s theme parks with the Honey, I Shrunk the Audience 4-D attraction, which was popular at Epcot from 1994 to 2010. However, the third movie, Honey, We Shrunk Ourselves, went straight to video in 1997, suggesting the idea was losing its appeal. In 2019, a fourth film, Shrunk, was planned with Rick Moranis returning after a long break from acting, but Disney put it on hold indefinitely in 2023. Surprisingly, a television series with three seasons and 66 episodes exists within this franchise, yet remains largely unknown to most fans.

While Judy Reyes’ Carla and John C. McGinley’s Dr. Cox appear less in the Scrubs revival because of other work commitments, they still make an impact. Recently, a beloved character from the original series returned in Episode 6, “My V.I.P.”: Rowdy, J.D. and Turk’s taxidermied Golden Retriever. Though just a stuffed animal, Rowdy was a memorable part of the show and symbolized their friendship. He’s now displayed in J.D.’s office and makes an appearance during a conversation with Dr. Park (Joel Kim Booster).
