Plus, the actors they’ve cast are seriously impressive – it’s a really strong lineup!
A new sci-fi movie based on H.G. Wells’ classic novel, The War of the Worlds, came out on Prime Video this summer. While it quickly became popular, it also unfortunately became known for being very poorly received. Later, Metacritic officially named it the worst movie of the year.
A new animated series called Star Wars Minis is coming to the Star Wars Kids YouTube channel. StarWars.com revealed the show will run through 2025 and into early 2026, making it the first Star Wars content scheduled to debut next year.
On Monday, the managing partner, Andrei “Goldfinger” Grachev-just kidding, but he could be-announced they settled a single 25-kilogram gold bar. That’s right, a literal bar of gold-probably worth a small fortune, or at least enough to buy a yacht or two. Plans? Oh, just scaling up to silver, platinum, and yes-cotton. Because who doesn’t want to trade fluffy stuff in a world obsessed with shiny, heavy metals, right? 😎

We all remember those changes that just didn’t work and upset a lot of fans – things like the “One More Day” Spider-Man storyline or the twist with Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch’s parentage. But you know what? For every bad retcon, there are tons that actually improve a character’s history, and often we don’t even notice them! The really good ones just seamlessly become part of the story, accepted by everyone. That’s what I want to talk about today. I’m going to highlight seven of the best retcons Batman has had over his incredible eighty-six year run – changes that actually made the character even better.
I first discovered Meat Boy way back on Newgrounds, a classic Flash game site.
