Masters of the Universe (2026)

Armed with an enormous budget, Travis Knight successfully translates the classic 1980s cartoon as a live-action 1980s cartoon.

If there is one downside is that the humor does not always work. But it is not annoying or anything too …

Star Wars: Now Streaming On the Big Screen
One of the inspirations that George Lucas has cited for Star Wars is the early serial sci-fi pulp series Buck Rodgers.

As many have pointed out, this doesn't feel much outside an extended version of the Disney+ series. If you're a fan, it gives you what you want but I can also see why it hasn't …
