Margot Robbie had already gained recognition in films like The Wolf of Wall Street and The Suicide Squad, but I, Tonya was the first movie to truly highlight her acting abilities. The film, directed by Craig Gillespie, successfully told the story of figure skater Tonya Harding and allowed Robbie to shine. While sports biopics are often made to win awards, I, Tonya stood out with its comedic approach. It balanced humor with the serious issues of abuse and violence, including the infamous attack on Nancy Kerrigan, offering a unique take on the genre.

New data from FlixPatrol shows that a show on HBO Max is currently performing slightly better than the popular drama The Pitt, even as new episodes of The Pitt are being released.

DC Studios is planning two different, ongoing Batman movie series, which means a new actor will be taking on the role of the iconic hero in The Brave and the Bold. Although James Gunn has stated they won’t begin casting until the script is finished, fans are already suggesting who should play Batman. Brandon Sklenar has been a favorite online for a while, with actors like Jensen Ackles, Alan Ritchson, and Jake Gyllenhaal also frequently mentioned.

The latest episode began with the start of Dunk’s trial by combat, but it quickly became clear he was outmatched. Within the first few minutes, it was evident Dunk wasn’t a skilled fighter, answering the question of his combat ability rather definitively.

He may not be a great fighter, but he’s remarkably resilient.

I’m a huge fan of both Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns, and it’s amazing to realize The Dark Knight Returns is celebrating its 40th anniversary! It first hit shelves on February 16, 1986, and I think it’s the perfect time to revisit that incredible graphic novel. And if you’re going to celebrate, why not also watch Batman v Superman? It really feels like a long, loving tribute to Miller and Varley’s work – especially if you go for the Ultimate Edition, which is the way to experience it, in my opinion!
