The classic sci-fi horror film Event Horizon became available on Paramount+ on January 1st, building anticipation for the upcoming comic book sequel, Event Horizon: Inferno, planned for April 2026. Directed by Paul Anderson and set in 2047, the movie follows a crew of astronauts—including Laurence Fishburne, Sam Neill, Kathleen Quinlan, and Joely Richardson—who are sent to investigate a spaceship that mysteriously reappeared after vanishing seven years prior. While now considered a cult favorite, Event Horizon wasn’t initially successful. It flopped at the box office, earning only $42 million despite a $60 million budget, and received largely negative reviews, with a 26% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

I spent a good amount of time playing Highguard and got a solid understanding of its mechanics. However, I was surprised by how quickly I uninstalled it. Right from the start, it was obvious the game wasn’t still developing – it felt like a promising idea that ultimately fell flat, becoming frustrating and draining to play.

As a big fan, I’ve noticed Funko Pops are everywhere these days, and it totally makes sense why. They’re small, they all have that same cool style – you instantly know what they are with those big heads and simple designs – and they look great on display. So when Funko announces a new Lara Croft Pop, it’s a really good sign that the Tomb Raider franchise is still popular and people are still excited about it. But this time it’s even cooler! It’s not just one Lara Croft figure; they’re releasing three different ones, and that’s where the real collecting fun begins!

A recent image on Walmart’s website showed several games available through Nintendo Switch Online, and fans noticed something interesting: both Pikmin 2 and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes were included. These games aren’t currently available on the Nintendo Switch Online’s GameCube selection, leading many to believe they’ll be added soon. It appears this promotional image accidentally revealed Nintendo’s plans before an official announcement.

I’m so excited! They’re making a new anime called Dragon Ball Super: The Galactic Patrol! It’s going to cover the Galactic Patrol Prisoner arc from the Dragon Ball Super manga. This is the first of two new stories happening after the Tournament of Power, and it’s been continuing the anime’s story in manga form. The slightly strange thing is, the manga is currently paused, so this anime will probably only be around for a little while before they run out of source material again.

Square Enix stands out because they’re willing to try new things creatively, even with their established and popular game series. Some of these series are incredibly well-known, while others have a dedicated, smaller fanbase and continue to influence game creators today. These franchises are fundamental to how modern role-playing games are designed, impacting everything from small independent projects to big-budget titles. While Square Enix has also released some excellent standalone games that didn’t get sequels, the following represent the very best of their core franchises.

Surprisingly, Primate received positive reviews. And to finish the month strong, Sam Raimi is back with the horror film Send Help, which looks very entertaining. However, Send Help might overshadow the month’s standout horror movie, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple. This raises a question about what’s next for the 28 Years Later franchise.

Before we begin, let’s define what makes a supervillain. Batman originally fought ordinary criminals, but they don’t quite fit the ‘super’ category, so we’ll focus on those with more elaborate schemes. It can be hard to draw the line, but we’re considering anyone with a defining theme – something beyond simple crime, like using advanced technology or building an identity around a specific concept. While a costume isn’t essential, it often adds to the effect. Now that we have a definition, let’s look at Batman’s first ten supervillains.

Marvel’s biggest strength – its incredibly connected universe, which other studios admired – eventually became a problem. The need to follow years of storylines before understanding new movies and shows started to discourage new viewers. To fix this, Marvel Studios created “Marvel Spotlight,” a label for projects like the upcoming Wonder Man, intended to be accessible without any prior knowledge. However, this isn’t always the case in practice.

No matter who wins the fight between Dabura and Mahoraga, Yuka is almost certain to die unless someone intervenes. She’s already very ill, confined to a wheelchair, and losing her vision. With only three months left to live, Yuka has accepted her fate and is willing to sacrifice herself for the sake of the jujutsu world. Surprisingly, the other sorcerers seem to have come to terms with her death and haven’t tried to save her.
