5 Times Thor’s Hammer Found a Worthy Hero (Besides Thor)

This magical enchantment didn’t just limit who could lift the hammer; it also allowed it to control powerful energy, create storms, and amplify Thor’s divine powers. Mjölnir doesn’t respond to physical strength or fighting ability alone. It chooses those who are brave, selfless, and have strong moral principles. Being worthy isn’t about being perfect, but about having good intentions and a pure heart. Even Thor has been found unworthy at times, proving that Mjölnir holds everyone, even its main user, to a high standard.

Netflix Users Have Just One Week Left to Watch One of Marvel’s Most Underrated Movies

As a huge movie fan, I’ve always found Ang Lee’s 2003 Hulk fascinating – it’s one of those films that really splits audiences. Some people think it actually got to the heart of the comic book in a way other adaptations haven’t, really focusing on what makes Bruce Banner tick. Others just didn’t connect with it, and honestly, a lot feel it hasn’t aged well. But one thing’s for sure: it’s never dull. It’s a real shame it’s becoming harder to find and watch, because it’s a unique take on the character.

Why It Took Nintendo So Long to Revitalize This Almost 40 Year Old Franchise

Many beloved Nintendo characters and games have faded into obscurity over the years, only to be rediscovered later. The Metroid series is a good example – after being dormant for almost ten years, Metroid Prime revitalized the franchise and re-established Samus as a major Nintendo icon. But some Nintendo games experience much longer periods of inactivity, sometimes lasting for decades. This happened to one of Nintendo’s earliest creations, which went nearly thirty years between releases.

Avatar: Fire and Ash’s Biggest Disappointment Is an Insult to the Na’vi

A new enemy group, the Mangkwan clan—also called the Ash People—appears in the film, led by the powerful Varang (Oona Chaplin). They attack the Sully family from the air while the family is traveling with the Windtraders. After chasing the children, Varang makes a deal with Quaritch, trading her clan’s support for weapons to help the RDA capture Jake. Though many Avatar fans anticipated the arrival of this new Na’vi clan before the release of Fire and Ash, Varang and the Ash People are portrayed as overly simplistic, which weakens the complex characterization of the Na’vi established throughout the Avatar franchise.

10 Best Martial Arts Anime, Ranked

No matter the martial art – whether it’s a traditional style like karate or kung fu, or something completely fantastical – it’s ultimately a story about personal growth and becoming more powerful. Many martial arts anime also demonstrate a genuine appreciation for the art form, highlighting various styles, techniques, and the philosophies that underpin them.

44 Years Ago Today, A Sci-Fi Icon Was Born… In His SECOND Movie (& We Need Him Back)

I have to say, Max Rockatansky is one of the greatest action heroes ever. He first appeared in Mad Max back in 1979, and that movie really put Mel Gibson on the map – surprisingly, he wasn’t the director’s original pick! It kicked off a huge franchise with five films, plus video games, books, and comics. He even showed up in Space Jam: A New Legacy, which was… unexpected. But for me, it was the second film, The Road Warrior, released today 44 years ago, that really cemented his legendary status.

HBO Max Users Have a Week Left to Watch One of The Best Comic Book Movies Not Made By Marvel or DC

Hellboy is a 2004 film directed by Guillermo del Toro, based on the Dark Horse Comics series Hellboy: Seed of Destruction. Ron Perlman stars as Hellboy, a demon who was summoned by Nazis during World War II and later saved by Allied troops. Now, he works for the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense, protecting the U.S. from supernatural threats. If you’re an HBO Max subscriber and want to watch it, you only have until December 31st, as the movie will be leaving the platform.
