Throughout the history of science fiction, many beloved franchises and films have seen some truly unusual sequel ideas proposed. These ideas range from simply odd to completely confusing, and some could have even damaged the original movies by making their stories seem weaker in hindsight. Luckily, none of these strange pitches ever became reality.
Everyone’s been wondering what big threat the heroes of the new DC Universe will face when they finally team up. Right now, many think it will be Darkseid, especially since the second season of *Peacemaker* seems to be leading into the *Salvation Run* story, which heavily features the New Gods. However, another theory is gaining traction with fans, and they feel they’ve found enough clues to prove it’s true.
Madeline McGraw has her sights set on joining the Spider-Man universe. In a recent interview with the Hollywood Reporter, she shared her dream of playing Spider-Gwen or any character from the franchise, saying she’s a huge fan and deeply drawn to that world. Interestingly, the role of Gwen Stacy might become available. While Hailee Steinfeld voiced Gwen in the animated *Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse* and *Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse*, Steinfeld already plays Kate Bishop in the live-action MCU series *Hawkeye*, which could open the door for a new actress to take on the role if Gwen Stacy appears in live-action.
With its funny title, the anime *The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You* has become popular since its release in 2023. The show, adapted from a manga by Rikito Namakura and Yukiko Nozawa, centers around Rentaro Aijo, who wishes for a girlfriend in high school. His wish is granted, but in a surprising twist – one hundred girls fall in love with him! A third season is confirmed to be coming next year, following the airing of the second season earlier this year, and a new preview has been released to give fans a sneak peek.
I’ve got some horror recommendations for you Hulu subscribers! As of today, October 10th, both the 2006 remakes of *The Omen* and *The Hills Have Eyes* are available to stream. These films are updates to classic ’70s horror – *The Omen* originally directed by Richard Donner, which deals with the coming of the anti-Christ, and Wes Craven’s *The Hills Have Eyes*, a truly terrifying tale of a family stalked by cannibals in the desert. If you’re looking for some spooky viewing, these are worth checking out!
Okay, so as a huge Nintendo fan, I’m super excited about this! Right now until November 7th, Switch and Switch 2 owners can grab *Inside*, which everyone says is an amazing game from 2016, for just two bucks! It’s not a straight-up scary horror game, but if you’re looking for something with a creepy vibe and a lot of suspense to play around Halloween, *Inside* is a fantastic choice.
Pokemon games haven’t always offered much in the way of character customization – early titles had a single, fixed character design. While recent games have added some clothing options, fans have been asking for more freedom. *Pokemon Legends: Z-A* seems to have answered that call. The game boasts a huge variety of clothes, hairstyles, and accessories, and – importantly – no restrictions. You can mix and match anything you want, regardless of your character’s gender. Based on the reaction online, Pokemon fans are loving this new level of personalization.
The MCU is hinting at the formation of the Midnight Sons, a team of supernatural heroes, but the final roster is still unknown. A recent fan-made artwork shared on Instagram by @70.6ix imagines a powerful line-up including Doctor Strange, Blade, Werewolf by Night, Elsa Bloodstone, the Punisher, and Ghost Rider. While this would be an exciting team, other supernatural characters could also potentially join the group.
Many films end with exciting, climactic scenes, but arguably the best of these actually *starts* a Spider-Man movie. That opening sequence is from The Amazing Spider-Man 2, which is often considered the weakest film in the character’s eight-movie history.
It seems unlikely that the *Doomsday* event will introduce many new characters beyond Doctor Doom. He’ll already be dealing with major teams like the Avengers, Fantastic Four, and X-Men. Still, there’s a chance a lesser-known character might finally get their moment to shine. One of the writers even has a specific hero in mind that fans would be excited to see appear.
