The Super Mario Bros. Movie earned $130.9 million in the United States and Canada over the Easter weekend, playing in 4,252 theaters, as reported by Box Office Mojo.

The Disney+ series Daredevil: Born Again is a continuation of the popular Netflix show that originally aired from 2015 to 2018. It follows Daredevil as he battles the villainous Wilson Fisk, or Kingpin. The new series keeps the gritty and realistic feel of the original Daredevil while also showing Matt Murdock’s efforts to manage his life as a lawyer and a masked crime fighter.

The season finale pits Joe against Vaggan in a final confrontation, forcing him to get dangerously close to understand her vulnerabilities. True to form for this show, defeating one enemy only creates a bigger problem. Joe inadvertently makes a powerful new enemy, and it ultimately leads to his downfall.

The third season of Invincible wrapped up with two strong episodes, which many fans felt was a step up from season two. Season four started even stronger, with a fantastic three-episode premiere, a good fourth episode, and what many are calling the best episode of the series so far. The heroes of the Coalition of Planets are now united and ready to confront the Viltrumites, hinting at a huge finale to season four.

Westerns have recently become very popular again after a period of decline. Pierce Brosnan’s series, The Son, which ran for two seasons on AMC (2017-2019), would likely have been a hit if it had aired during this current resurgence. Although the show, with only 20 episodes, didn’t initially attract a large audience, it remains a worthwhile series to watch.

As a fan, it felt like we’d seen crime shows before, but the 2010s really expanded what was possible on TV. We started seeing more shows set in the past, and a lot of them had shorter seasons which made every episode feel really intense. Plus, the actors seemed eager to try out more film-like techniques, and it all added up to a truly amazing decade for the genre. I loved how different things felt!

Well-designed monsters are crucial in anime fantasy. A weak monster can ruin an otherwise interesting world, but a truly great one can elevate a good story to something special. Whether they’re huge, terrifying beasts or strange, otherworldly creatures, memorable monsters stick with viewers long after the credits roll. They’re what really bring the magic and danger to life in this genre.

Action movie lovers are enjoying a fantastic era right now, but the 1990s were just as exciting. Today, we have great action films like Sisu and Nobody in theaters, and shows like Reacher on TV. Back in the ‘90s, fans could leave movies like True Lies and Face/Off and then continue the fun with action-packed TV shows at home.

Many consider Breaking Bad to be one of the best crime thrillers ever made, and its occasional funny scenes – like the famous pizza-throwing moment – helped make it a hit. But Breaking Bad was ultimately a dark and intense show, which is why Hulu’s new 10-episode crime comedy, Deli Boys, is finding an audience. It offers laughs while still exploring the world of crime.

The film The Running Man came out in theaters on November 14th, making it the fourth movie based on a Stephen King story released that year, following The Monkey, The Life of Chuck, and The Long Walk. While it didn’t do well in theaters initially, The Running Man has become popular on streaming and is currently a top performer on Paramount+, according to FlixPatrol.
