I’m so excited about the new movie, The Odyssey! Matt Damon is going to be Odysseus, which is amazing, and the rest of the cast is incredible – Anne Hathaway, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Elliot Page, Mia Goth, Charlize Theron, Lupita Nyong’o, and even Jon Bernthal are all involved! Empire magazine just released some first-look photos, and we’re finally finding out which legendary characters everyone is playing.

As a total TV fanatic, I’ve been checking out what’s new on Apple TV, and the team at Ebaster has rounded up five shows that are really getting people talking. These aren’t just random picks – they’re the critically acclaimed, fan-favorite, and most buzzed-about series that have just dropped. One of them, in particular, is incredible – it’s got a 98% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which basically means it’s a must-see for anyone with an Apple TV subscription!

The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) continues to be the standard for superhero franchises, especially its early years with the ‘Infinity Saga.’ After the first Avengers movie demonstrated audience enthusiasm for connected stories building to a large team-up, adapting superhero comics into an interconnected universe became a perfect strategy. The success of this approach exceeded all expectations. This interconnectedness meant fans consistently turned out for each new movie, and even lesser-known heroes could star in major blockbuster films.

Composer Parry Gripp (known as Haft) told ScreenRant that while season 2 of Hazbin Hotel featured a lot of songs sung by villains, the music in season 3 will be different.

We’re revisiting some of our most-loved holiday moments and sharing the best quotes to bring some festive cheer to your season – from inspiring messages to funny lines.

Quentin Tarantino is considered a filmmaking master, known for his unique storytelling that has inspired countless directors. However, his particular style – from the music he chooses to his bold camera angles – remains uniquely his own. After deciding to cancel his project, The Movie Critic, in 2024, everyone wondered what he’d do next. The answer turned out to be a pleasant surprise.

Let’s get right to it – here’s the latest on Season 3 of Smiling Friends.

Anime movies are increasingly getting bigger budgets and more development time, leading to truly stunning animation. Plus, we’re seeing both brand new anime stories and beloved series make their way to theaters. For fans who enjoy both, it’s a fantastic time, and they’re likely to find some of the best anime released in the last quarter-century.

Nearly a decade ago, a fantastic sci-fi show with a dark, alternate history setting premiered on Prime Video and quickly gained popularity with both audiences and critics. While the second season wasn’t quite as strong as the first, which received almost perfect reviews, the show rebounded with excellent third and fourth seasons. It’s now considered one of Prime Video’s top sci-fi series.

I was absolutely floored by the finale of The Chair Company! When it ended on that freeze-frame of Ron looking worried, with his girlfriend’s boyfriend yelling, my first instinct was to let out a sarcastic little cheer. It was perfect! The whole episode finally answered all the big questions we’d been puzzling over all season about Tim Robinson’s character, Ron Trosper, but in the most delightfully weird way – it made everything we thought we knew feel totally wrong. Honestly, I was so relieved to hear HBO already greenlit a second season – I need to know what happens next!
