After battling Homelander (and losing one of her eyes in the process), as well as surviving after getting her powers blasted away by Soldier Boy, the wounded former Supe faked her own death and snuck off to go…

Animated sci-fi comedy Rick and Morty has gained a strong following in its over 10 years on the air, becoming one of the most well-known shows currently running. Following the interplanetary adventures of genius yet nihilistic scientist Rick Sanchez and his grandson Morty Smith (both previously voiced by the now-fired Justin Roiland), the series has deeply explored many sci-fi concepts. This ranges from comedic movie parodies to grander and more emotionally potent storylines about the characters’ interpersonal dynamics and Rick’s tragic backstory. Fans are often in discussion about the series’ highlights, with plot-driven episodes usually being fan favorites, making these…

Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.With The Boys now wrapped up, showrunner Eric Kripke explained a few key changes from the comics. While speaking with Collider, he broke down why the battle between Homelander and Butcher was tweaked: There are some similarities in the Homelander-Butcher of it all, at least in terms of, we’re trying to nod to it, of the setting in the Oval Office, or using the crowbar as the final…

In Noah Baumbach’s debut feature film Kicking and Screaming, an aimless recent college grad played by Chris Eigeman laments himself for his fading potential and tendency to maudlin reverie: ​“I’m nostalgic for conversations I had yesterday. I’ve begun reminiscing events before they even occur.”To make Rewind Barcelona, young French filmmaker Paul Nouhet called up three of his best friends from Bordeaux to recall a long weekend they spent together in the Catalan capital, around the summer they all turned 18, ostensibly to make skateboarding videos. Those friends all play themselves in the framing device, the conceit of which mirrors the film’s backstory, with adult Paul…

From Rocky to Creed to Delphi.For the first time, a TV show is in production based in the universe of Rocky and Creed. Naturally it follows a bunch of boxers. (It’d be kind of cool is a Rocky/Creed TV show was about, like, a group of rodeo clowns. Gotta keep the audience on their toes!) The show, titled Delphi, is now in production and takes place in the gym frequented by Adonis Creed, Michael B. Jordan’s character from the three Creed films.While Jordan himself is only an executive producer and not a star on the series, his character’s trainer, Little Duke (played by Wood Harris), will recur on the series. Duke is the son…

Once upon a time, the newest addition to the Grey’s Anatomy roster felt like a special occasion, and there were various reasons for this, particularly the fact that someone could potentially die in increasingly ridiculous ways. But one of the biggest reasons was how well the show conveyed who the main characters were as individuals compared to virtually all other shows on network television. Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), Cristina Yang (Sandra Oh), Alex Karev (Justin Chambers), Izzie Stevens (Katherine Heigl), and George O’Malley (T.R. Knight) built a strong connection with audiences throughout the first several seasons of the show. While…

Now, the studio is venturing into new territory with the release of a brand-new RPG. Although it doesn’t come from any existing IP or series, it’s clearly drawing quite a bit on Zelda with its approach to…

Beyond these two, the main character arc of the film involves Rotta, the muscle-bound son of Jabba the Hutt, played with little conviction by The Bear’s Jeremy Allen White. His uncanny, often awkwardly-posed CG visage aside, he spends much of the film feeling like if Woody from Toy Story explained his pathology about his father every time you pulled the string. Perhaps there’s something to be gleaned about leaving a more peaceful path open for one’s children, but if there is, The Mandalorian & Grogu doesn’t have much interest in it – Rotta is mostly a means to fit in a few more references…
