Like previous films in the series, this one starts with a prologue: a couple of college students break into the house where the original movie’s characters died, and predictably receive the chilling phone call from the masked killer, challenging them to a deadly game. This leads to a brutal opening kill. Soon after, the town where Sidney lives begins to experience a new wave of murders, prompting a lockdown. Sidney and, more importantly, her daughter, quickly find themselves targeted by Ghostface.

As a longtime fan of Star Trek: Discovery, I was really surprised by Mary Wiseman’s limited role in the new Star Trek: Starfleet Academy series. We saw her character, Tilly, transfer to teach at the Academy back in season four of Discovery, so I expected her to be a regular face. Instead, she just appears as a guest star in a single episode of Starfleet Academy‘s first season. It’s a bit disappointing to see a character with so much potential sidelined like that.

DC and Warner Bros. Games released a new video called “The Joker, Clown Prince of the Museum.” The video closely recreates a famous scene from the 1989 film Batman, featuring Jack Nicholson as the Joker and his crew causing chaos in a Gotham City museum while Prince’s song “Partyman” plays in the background.

One of the best things about streaming is that movies can stay popular for much longer, giving hidden gems a chance to find an audience. I want to highlight five movies from the last decade that didn’t get the attention they deserved when they came out, but I believe will eventually be recognized as some of the best films of their time.

Similar to Reacher, this new Netflix show is based on a popular book series. If successful, it could become a long-running, major franchise for Netflix, comparable to Reacher and Bosch. While the books have been made into movies before, those films weren’t particularly memorable – much like the Jack Reacher movies.

HBO became a television powerhouse with hits like The Sopranos and Game of Thrones, shows that truly changed the landscape of TV. However, what often gets overlooked is HBO’s talent for creating genuinely unsettling thrillers. These aren’t the over-the-top, twist-filled dramas, but slow-paced, atmospheric thrillers where the most frightening moments often come from seemingly ordinary interactions.

For years, the title of “Big Three” in manga has belonged to One Piece, Naruto, and Bleach – three incredibly popular series from Weekly Shonen Jump that were huge in the early 2000s. But as tastes change and new fans emerge, people have started to question if those three are still the most dominant. Recently, the Manga Research Institute released data showing which series are currently the most popular worldwide.

It’s true that The Napa Boys takes a strange and unusual approach to storytelling. But considering Hollywood’s current obsession with sequels, remakes, and revisiting anything remotely popular, the film cleverly both honors and pokes fun at a genre that’s largely been overlooked.

The show’s finale remains a hot topic of discussion and debate years after it aired in 2007. Its shocking and controversial ending was largely due to its open-ended nature, but that ambiguity may have been intentional. A small detail from earlier in the series could actually be the key to understanding it all.
