7 Underrated Sci-Fi Films That Deserve a Franchise Revival!

Instead of discussing blockbuster hits such as “The Fifth Element” and “Galaxy Quest,” where fans have been eagerly anticipating a follow-up for years, we’re focusing on underappreciated or overlooked science fiction properties that have slipped through the cracks. These hidden treasures are ripe for discovery and potential exploitation by Hollywood’s franchise machine. Previously, we’ve delved into this topic, but today we’re revisiting it with seven more underrated sci-fi films that warranted more attention than they received – as well as possibly a sequel or two.

I Hope Marvel Finally Does Something to Evolve Thor as a Character

Honestly speaking, I’ve noticed that for quite some time now, Thor seems to be stuck in a repetitive pattern. As a fan, reading Thor stories feels like we’re retracing familiar paths, even though the quality of “Immortal Thor” is commendable. It seems like more of the same for Thor, and I believe it’s high time for a significant change. We all adore Thor; he’s one of the most entertaining Avengers to follow, and his solo journeys have transported us to incredible realms. His battles are always thrilling, and he plays a crucial role in the Marvel Universe. Yet, none of this seems to have prevented him from getting stuck in this rut. Can Marvel breathe new life into Thor? Absolutely! The solution could be drawing inspiration from classic Marvel comics.

7 MCU Characters That Could Hold the Multiverse Together Like Loki

In the second season of Loki, the multiverse is at risk. To save it, Loki searches for a variant of He Who Remains to assist him. Their mission is to fix the Temporal Loom that safeguards the Sacred Timeline, but complications arise swiftly. Ultimately, Loki must embark on a perilous journey alone into Eternity and stabilize the branches of the multiverse. Despite Loki finding his noble objective in his standalone series, he’s not the only Marvel Cinematic Universe character ready to take up the task.

Absolute Martian Manhunter Is a Perfect Fusion of Art and Story (& You Need to Check It Out)

In every issue of “Absolute Martian Manhunter,” there’s a stunning visual experience that’s hard to beat, but issue #4 truly embodies my statement about the art and story being inseparable. The narrative unfolds with a White Martian shining a blinding white light on the city during a heatwave, causing chaos and discomfort among the inhabitants. This is depicted through a sickly yellow background and an offensive white glow that permeates everything. Agent John and the Martian can’t address the root cause of the problem, so they focus on managing the symptoms. As days turn into weeks, with them often being away to combat this issue, Bridget’s bitterness continues to grow.

Pokemon Legends: Z-A Fans Split Over Potential Leak: “Is This AI?

Among the exciting new additions to Pokemon Legends: Z-A, fans are particularly thrilled about the comeback of Mega Evolution. This beloved gameplay element allows specific Pokemon to undergo an additional, temporary transformation into a more powerful form with enhanced abilities. Originating from X and Y, this feature has been consistently requested by players ever since it was no longer available following Let’s Go, Pikachu and Let’s Go, Eevee.

James Gunn Teases Whether We’ll See Batman in Trunks

During a conversation with ComicBook during the promotion for the upcoming release of the new Superman film, director and DC Studios co-head James Gunn stated that the fate of Superman’s trunks (or briefs) hasn’t been determined yet, but among all DC characters who wear similar attire in comic books, it’s most probable that Superman will retain his distinctive costume.

Wonder Woman Has the Weakest Villains in DC (& That’s a Problem)

Although she is renowned as the most prominent superheroine and a founding member of the Justice League, she doesn’t share the same fame when it comes to her rogue gallery compared to other superheroes like Batman, Superman, or the Flash. While characters such as Batman, Superman, and even the Flash have well-known villains they often face off against – Joker, Bane, Lex Luthor, Bizarro, Reverse Flash, Gorilla Grodd, to name a few – it seems that Wonder Woman’s regular adversaries are less familiar to people, even those who aren’t particularly fans of the character. If you asked a random person on the street to list ten Batman villains, they could likely do so easily, but when it comes to naming five or more of Wonder Woman’s rogues, I believe they might find that task challenging.

32 Years Later, This Is Still the Most Confusing Part of Jurassic Park

From the get-go, it was evident that Nedry was a questionable character. He struggled financially, and although it’s intriguing to discuss if companies like InGen should pay programmers better, we’ll postpone that discussion for later. Instead, his suspicious behavior led him to conspire against his own company, which, while expected by Biosyn Corporation, was still puzzling as to how they thought their plan would succeed.
