Most science fiction disaster movies offer a hopeful ending, with heroes saving the day at the last minute. Don’t Look Up is different. It ends not with a miraculous rescue, but with a stark and unsettling conclusion. The film doesn’t provide heroes; instead, it forces viewers to confront the idea that we possessed the means to prevent disaster, but ultimately failed to act.
The upcoming Supergirl movie is generating a lot of discussion. As the first DC Universe project released that wasn’t directly overseen by James Gunn, initial reactions are varied. A major point of contention is that the film’s visual style doesn’t quite live up to the artistry of the Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow comic book it’s based on. This is especially concerning since the movie will be many viewers’ first look at Jason Momoa as Lobo, and it could end up being a less-than-ideal introduction to his character within the new DCU.
A new villain called Torment will debut in February’s Amazing Spider-Man/Venom: Death Spiral #1. The story will then continue in the regular monthly Amazing Spider-Man and Venom comics throughout March and April. Fans will learn the full story behind Torment in a special one-shot issue coming out on May 13, 2026.
Stephen King announced on X that filming has started for season 2 of The Institute, the MGM+ series. He shared a photo of the script for the first episode, which will be directed by Jack Bender. You can see the announcement here:
Following the huge success of No Way Home, director Watts wanted to return to his earlier, more personal style of filmmaking. He wrote a new story about two competing cleanup crews for crime scenes who are unexpectedly forced to collaborate on a strange case. The project quickly gained the attention of major stars Brad Pitt and George Clooney, and looked poised for another box office hit. However, just six weeks before release, Apple TV+ made a decision that upset Watts, Pitt, and Clooney, leading to the complete cancellation of a previously announced sequel.
It was hard to ignore the coincidence. During the 2026 Grammys, clips of Gervais’ past comments spread rapidly online, with many people now seeing them less as jokes and more as surprisingly accurate predictions.
With the fifth season of For All Mankind premiering next month, it’s becoming clear that this show is a standout in the sci-fi genre. The Apple TV+ series brilliantly blends historical events with futuristic ideas, making it one of the most engaging shows currently on television, and it deserves more recognition for its creativity.
As a huge Marvel fan, I’ve been really enjoying the ‘Wonder Man’ series. It’s part of the Marvel Spotlight line, which is great because these projects aren’t as tied into the huge overarching MCU story – you don’t need to have watched a ton of other movies and shows to jump right in. They really focus on the characters themselves, and honestly, they tend to be critically acclaimed. ‘Wonder Man’ just proves to me that Marvel should be doing way more projects like this, especially during this whole Multiverse Saga!
It’s always tricky to pick a “best” actor or actress, since judging performances is really a matter of opinion. However, 2007 was the last year when all four major Oscar acting awards went to genuinely outstanding performances – many consider it a high point for movies before the rise of superhero blockbusters and streaming TV changed things. As we look forward to this year’s awards and make our predictions, let’s remember that year.
