See AllWhat is the best Train to Busan movie?
While the original Train to Busan movie might be the most well-known of them, there are two other entries in the zombie franchise. Seoul Station is a violent and bleak origin story for the zombies seen in the film, with gorgeous animation that makes its story even more visceral. The other live-action entry in the franchise is 2020's Train to Busan Presents: Peninsula, which does a good job of showing how the world has evolved since the original movie. While I enjoy all three entries, the original's classic status and deep connections between characters are simply unmatched.
Was Thunderbolts*'s box office ing the MCU's biggest bomb ever in any doubt?
Thunderbolts* ed the total box office of The Marvels, the MCU's biggest bomb, in just one week. While it's impressive that the MCU movie managed to do it so fast, I don't think it was ever in question that the film would be able to leave The Marvels behind. With fan-favorites like Bucky Barnes and Yelena Belova, and Avengers-like team-up concept — later revealed to be a true Avengers movie, and more, I always expected Thunderbolts* to have a better box office run than The Marvels, so I wasn't surprised by its feat.
Should Michael Douglas' Hank Pym die in the MCU after the Ant-Man trilogy?
Michael Douglas recently revealed in an interview that he believes his time in the MCU might be over. Now that the Ant-Man trilogy has ended, I think it's okay for the franchise to move on from Hank Pym. However, I wasn't Douglas to come back one final time. In the past, the actor had commented on how he wanted Hank to die if he were to return, and I feel like such a death could add to the stakes of the next two Avengers movies, so I hope it happens.
Does Supernatural's first spinoff deserve as much love as The Winchesters?
While The Winchesters is Supernatural's first live-action spinoff series, the first actual spinoff of the popular show came in the animated realm. I think that Supernatural: The Anime is worth a watch, as it puts key events of the series through a new lens and even offers some adventures that are exclusive to the anime version of Supernatural. That said, I feel like The Winchesters was definitely the most exciting out of the two Supernatural spinoffs so far.
The Last of Us season 2, episode 6 shows why losing Pedro Pascal's Joel is so hard.
Pedro Pascal's Joel Miller was the main character of The Last of Us season 1. His death early in season 2 completely changes the series, and episode 6, which was nearly all made up of flashbacks showing Joel and Ellie's relationship through the years, is the perfect showcase of why he will always be missed. As an actor, Pascal is a powerhouse, not just due to his charisma, but also the way he adds emotional weight to scenes like the porch conversation. Joel and Ellie's banter was also the heart of the show, and losing it is a heavy blow.
Is Superman being weak in the DCU movie a sign that James Gunn understands him?
James Gunn's Superman movie trailers have repeatedly shown David Corenswet's Superman getting beaten up and bleeding. While Superman is usually shown to be an extremely powerful hero who can't be hurt by much, I think Gunn is using this shocking move to show us how he understands the character. By giving Superman so many adversities, Clark Kent's humanity comes out more, and since that is truly the best part of the Man of Steel — his desire to do good and help others with his immense powers — James Gunn's Superman movie is on point.

See AllShould Sebastian Stan play Luke Skywalker?
I would love to see a solo series for Luke Skywalker telling the story of his Jedi Academy/Temple and also see him in a sizable role in the conflict with Thrawn. While the CGI has gotten better with time, I think only recasting allows Luke to be a full-fledged character for projects like those, and Sebastian Stan is a terrific actor who looks like young Mark Hamill, so do it!
Would you watch an Imperial-focused Star Wars series starring Ben Mendelsohn's Director Krennic?
Honestly, I would watch anything that has a similar tone to Andor. That said, a Krennic project would be perfect for the darker, more mature side of Star Wars, so I would love to see it.
What's your biggest hope for the MCU's Ironheart series?
I know it's a long shot, but I would love to see the A.I. Tony Stark like in the comics. With Robert Downey Jr. back in the MCU, I hope it happens in another project, if not in Ironheart.
After the new Superman trailer, does Nicholas Hoult feel right for Lex Luthor?
1000%. The thing I absolutely love about James Gunn's Superman so far is that all the characters in it feel like their comic book selves. Nicholas Hoult's Lex Luthor has the potential to rival Smallville's Michael Rosenbaum if his performance is as good as the trailers make it seem.
Did the new Superman trailer give away too much?
I feel like we got the crucial themes and elements to be gripped by the movie's story without feeling like we know exactly how it is going to go. What I loved about the trailer was delving deeper into David Corenswet's Superman/Clark Kent performance, and it seems to be one for the ages.
Is Ironheart going to finally introduce THAT villain to the MCU?
I continue to be confident that Sacha Baron Cohen is playing Mephisto in Ironheart. He could be behind the markings seen on The Hood's back. However, given how we have been burned in the past, I'm keeping room in my theories for it to turn out to be a human version of Dormammu, which could still be cool.
