Stranger Things spin-off’s first plot details are revealed – and it answers one major question

As a huge fan of Stranger Things, I was so excited when Netflix revealed the new series would take place in 1985, fitting right between seasons two and three! It’s going to follow Eleven, Max, Mike, Lucas, Dustin, and Will as they deal with some seriously creepy new monsters and try to figure out this strange, paranormal mystery that’s got their town on edge. I can’t wait to see what happens!

The War Between the Land and the Sea shows where TV is failing with disability representation

As a film buff, I’m really disappointed by the casting in “The War Between.” It feels like the show thinks simply including a disabled character is enough.

Six Years Ago Today, Star Wars Gave Baby Yoda a Force Power That Breaks All the Rules

From the very beginning of The Mandalorian Season 1, it was clear Grogu, like Yoda and Yaddle, was strong with the Force. He first showed this by lifting a mudhorn, but he quickly proved capable of much more. One of his most impressive abilities appeared in Season 1, episode 7, “The Reckoning,” where Baby Yoda demonstrated he could use the Force to heal others.

Crunchyroll Will Make One of Its Biggest Anime Free to Watch (But There’s a Catch)

I’m so excited! Crunchyroll is letting everyone watch all of Trigun Stampede for free from January 6th to 13th on YouTube! It’s the perfect way to get ready for Trigun Stargaze, which is being called the epic finale to Studio Orange’s awesome remake. If you haven’t seen Stampede yet, now’s your chance to jump in and see what all the fuss is about. And if you have seen it, it’s a great refresher before Stargaze arrives. Honestly, with so much great anime coming in January 2026, Vash the Stampede absolutely deserves to be a major highlight!
