For a long time in Marvel movies, Loki was known as Thor’s enemy. However, in some versions of the story, he’s become someone who puts others first, moving beyond being simply a villain – though he’s not quite a hero either. Despite this growth, most fans still remember him as a bad guy. Now, as the protector of the Multiverse, keeping all the different timelines stable, he’s a vulnerable target, and even he can’t escape Doctor Doom.
The new Peacock series is based on a strange and thought-provoking short story by Manuel Gonzalez, originally published in 2013. It’s a unique blend of the concepts from Honey, I Shrunk the Kids and War of the Roses. Starring Banks and McFadden, the show centers on Les and Lindy Littlejohn, a married couple—a writer and a scientist—who are dealing with an unequal dynamic in their relationship. When Les’s experiment goes wrong and shrinks Lindy to just six inches tall, they’re forced to confront the difficult realities of her new, tiny existence.
I recently teamed up with Watches of Switzerland to look back at my career, and we did it by picking out three watches that represent different parts of my journey. The first one reminds me of when everything really started to click – my sophomore year and rookie era. The second represents where I am now in the league, and the third is all about where I want to go next, my future goals in the NBA.
For that first watch, I chose the Watches of Switzerland Tissot PRX Powermatic 80. It’s a modern take on a classic from 1978, with a really cool 40mm carbon case and black bezel. It’s super lightweight but can definitely handle anything I throw at it. Honestly, it reminds me of the watch I wore on draft night – a night I’ll never forget!
As a huge movie buff, I’m starting to feel the pinch of all these streaming services constantly raising their prices. Netflix and Prime Video just hit us with increases, and I’m bracing for others to follow suit. That’s why Tubi is such a breath of fresh air – it’s genuinely different and a fantastic option when your wallet’s feeling a little light.
Many Pokémon have received powerful Mega Evolutions, but some popular choices have been overlooked. Not only have these fan-favorites not been able to Mega Evolve, but they haven’t even benefited from the special abilities introduced in different regions of the Pokémon world. If the new Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves games introduce more Mega Evolutions, these Pokémon should be a priority.
The Rolling Stones have released a new song called “Rough and Twisted,” but it’s not available on typical streaming services. And it’s not credited to The Rolling Stones – it’s released under the name The Cockroaches instead.
There’s a real comfort in the simple things this series offers. Jason’s hockey mask and his slow, deliberate movements have made him a truly iconic figure in the horror genre. Unlike villains like Freddy Krueger or Pennywise, Jason doesn’t bother taunting or playing with his victims.
Netflix’s Shadow and Bone series, which combined the stories from the Shadow and Bone books and the Six of Crows duology, quickly became a popular romantasy hit after it debuted in 2021. While the show gained even more fans with its second season in 2023, it was unfortunately canceled later that year. Even though it was short-lived, Shadow and Bone remains an excellent example of immersive world-building, and it continues to have a dedicated fanbase. Despite being canceled, the show’s unique fantasy aspects make it stand out among Netflix’s other offerings.
Given the sheer variety of movies and shows available on Netflix, it’s not surprising to see such a diverse mix of titles appearing on its charts. Some of these releases are critically acclaimed, while others aren’t as popular, which is typical. What people enjoy watching at home often differs greatly from what they choose to see in cinemas.
