Thrillers are a surprisingly versatile genre – they can be lighthearted and funny, or dark and intense. The 2000s saw a wealth of memorable thrillers, with directors like David Fincher consistently offering new takes on well-known stories. A truly great thriller remains gripping and suspenseful even years later.
I’ve been following the reports, and while nothing has been officially confirmed by anyone involved, they really bring to light just how strange things are over at Warner Bros. and DC Studios. It’s all speculation for now, but it definitely points to something unusual happening behind the scenes.
Though House has become a favorite horror film over the last ten years, many other movies from that same period offer a similar, energetic experience. A lot of horror films from that time focused on imaginative special effects and weren’t afraid to be funny. If you’re a fan of that style, whether you’re new to the genre or a longtime viewer, cult classics like Evil Dead II capture the same feeling perfectly.
I’m so excited to hear that as part of the big 250th birthday celebration for the US, they’re going to have a hologram of the legendary Charlie Daniels perform at Fort Campbell in Kentucky! It’s going to be an awesome show with Aaron Tippin, Eric Lee Beddingfield, and the amazing 101st Airborne Division Band too. What a cool way to honor his memory!
The new Hulu movie, Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice, stars Kevin Vaughn and James Marsden alongside Eiza González. The film follows their characters through a chaotic and violent night, made even more complex by the sudden appearance of a time machine. It’s an R-rated action-comedy featuring Vaughn’s signature quick wit.
As we’ve discussed, both the tabletop RPG Cyberpunk RED and the video game Cyberpunk 2077 brought renewed interest to the cyberpunk genre. While we eagerly await CD Projekt RED’s sequel, I’ve put together a list of ten games that capture the same gritty setting, atmosphere, and storytelling we enjoyed in Cyberpunk 2077 back in 2020. If you’re looking for immersive experiences filled with neon lights and dystopian themes, these games should fit the bill. Even though some are still in development, and the Cyberpunk 2077 sequel isn’t expected until at least 2030, these titles will be perfect to play in the meantime.
In the fourth episode of Invincible season 4, Mark unexpectedly finds himself in Hell, brought there by Damien Darkblood who needs assistance with a powerful new enemy. This enemy is Volcanikka, a villain who controls magma and plans to conquer Hell by driving out its demons—a move that’s just the first step in her ultimate goal: invading Earth. During his time in Hell, Mark uncovers crucial secrets about the Invincible universe, including mysteries that even his father, Omni-Man, never investigated.
Westerns have a rich history on television, with iconic shows like Gunsmoke and Longmire proving their lasting appeal – almost as much as they’ve endured in movies. The genre has seen a resurgence recently, largely due to the popularity of Yellowstone. Because of this, choosing the best Western show since the year 2000 is a challenge. However, Deadwood stands out as the clear winner.
Though Neon Genesis Evangelion told a complete story in its original anime, it became a hugely popular franchise. What’s unique about its sequels isn’t that they continue the story, but that each new installment—like the recent short film—retells the same story in a different way. The series even playfully recognizes its tendency to create alternate timelines and endings.
Waiting for Season 3 of Percy Jackson feels like it’s taking forever, but luckily, there are lots of other great fantasy shows to enjoy in the meantime. Some offer grand, sweeping adventures, while others have the same fun and humor as Percy Jackson. No matter what fantasy fans are in the mood for, these series are all excellent options while we wait for Disney+’s popular show to return.
