The show Twin Peaks perfectly illustrates how much television changed between the 1980s and 1990s. When it debuted at the start of the new decade, director David Lynch was given unusual creative freedom to make a show resembling an art film for television. Its success on ABC caught the attention of other networks, leading to a surge in experimental programming.
Considering how popular and long-lasting the Jurassic Park movies are, it’s important to know where you can currently watch them – in theaters or at home. This changes frequently due to how movies are released today, but exciting news suggests more films will soon be readily available, which is great for the franchise’s future.
The movie Saltburn, currently rated 71% on Rotten Tomatoes and 7.0 on IMDb, features Barry Keoghan as Oliver, a character who subtly destroys a wealthy family from within. Seeing Keoghan’s performance now feels like a chilling foreshadowing of the intense psychological battle between Tommy and Duke in their upcoming film.
Following in the footsteps of the first Game of Thrones prequel, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms faced high expectations before its January 2026 debut. Now that the first season has finished airing on February 22nd, it’s clear that AKOTSK has successfully breathed new life into the Game of Thrones universe.
As a critic, I’ve seen a lot of shows stumble after their first season or two, padding things out with episodes that just don’t add up. But there’s a sci-fi series on Netflix that consistently avoids that trap. Over its three seasons, I honestly struggled to find a single wasted moment – every plot point, no matter how small, felt deliberately woven into the bigger story. It’s refreshing to see a show so committed to a tight, compelling narrative.
The anime is now in its final story arc, and all the different plots are colliding. Several groups are after the gold, but they’re also driven by a desire for revenge and a compelling narrative. While Golden Kamuy is aimed at young men, it has the exciting energy and intense competition you’d expect from today’s action anime. This final arc feels like the most unpredictable show on television, as it finally delivers on storylines that have been building for years. It’s getting increasingly intense and unforgiving, but still maintains the strong relationships that have been central to the story.
Many of today’s most popular and well-received science fiction shows center around life after a catastrophe. While shows like The Last of Us and Fallout began as video games, others such as Silo and The Eternaut were inspired by books. Similar to The Eternaut, Netflix also features another post-apocalyptic series that’s based on a highly-regarded comic book.
It’s easy to doubt true stories in movies when they seem far-fetched, but that doesn’t mean they’re not real. Often, the most compelling films based on actual events are fascinating because of how unusual the stories are. While these movies might take some creative liberties, they’re all rooted in documented facts. From dramas to sci-fi and even horror, each film offers a unique take on real-life events, no matter how unbelievable they may seem. These movies prove that, sometimes, truth is much stranger than fiction.
Despite the film’s central mystery, Ebert had no interest in becoming involved and didn’t like the movie at all.
With so many different versions of Batman appearing in comics and other media, it’s still unclear which one the DC Universe’s Batman will be based on. However, Brandon Sklenar’s performance in The Housemaid makes it clear why he’s been a popular choice among fans hoping he’d get the role, and anyone questioning his acting ability should definitely check it out.
