In the “Solo Leveling” series, the Jeju Island arc nearly took the life of Cha Hae-In, mainly because of the overpowering might of the Ant King. She suffered a heavy blow to her ribcage that left her unconscious during the rest of the raid. Regrettably, she became more known for being a damsel in distress who required rescue from her knight in shining armor, rather than for her valor and strength.

Every year on Star Wars Day, there are sales and giveaways, but this year’s seems exceptionally special. Epic Games Store and Steam are both offering significant discounts, a fresh collection of franchise games has been released, and two of May 2025’s Prime Gaming free games are Star Wars titles, with more available to stream for Luna Plus subscribers. Given the tide of promotions, it’s only fitting that The Old Republic would participate in the festivities.
Five Nights at Freddy’s, originally a popular video game created by Scott Cawthon, has been brought to life as a live-action film adaptation. The initial movie in this series, directed by Emma Tammi and produced by Blumhouse Productions, hit theaters in October 2023. Although it received a mix of positive and negative reviews, the horror genre flick proved to be a substantial financial triumph, grossing an impressive $296 million globally on a budget of just $20 million. Thanks to its successful premiere, a sequel was given the green light in December 2023. This prequel is set for release later this year, and as per Lillard, it’s even scarier and more impressive than the first installment.
1982 saw the premiere of “E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial,” a science fiction motion picture helmed by Steven Spielberg. In this film, Henry Thomas played Elliott, Drew Barrymore was his younger sister Gertie, Robert MacNaughton portrayed his older brother Michael, and Dee Wallace took on the role of their mother Mary.

Tiber Septim was not only a formidable warrior and captivating ruler, but his conquests in Tamriel left lasting wounds that would echo through future centuries. His life has been a topic of much debate and controversial interpretation. Upon his passing, he transformed into the deity Talos, thereby expanding the pantheon of Eight Divines to Nine. His status among the Aedra plays a significant role in the events unfolding during Oblivion.
In previous Scream movies, characters who appeared to have died didn’t actually return. However, fans are speculating about whether Stu is alive or dead in Scream 7, and it remains uncertain which direction the sequel will take. After reading a recent interview with Lillard, I now believe Stu could potentially be still present, but I hope the storyline will be coherent.
Initially, the well-known game called “Flappy Bird” was developed in 2013 by a Vietnamese programmer named Dong Nguyen. In the year that followed, it gained immense popularity with more than 90 million downloads on iOS and Android devices. The game attracted substantial media attention, much of which had a negative slant, causing Nguyen to remove “Flappy Bird” from app stores in early 2014. Since then, he has lost the rights to the “Flappy Bird” name, and it has been taken over by an independent organization that has recently released an updated version of the game.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is divided into distinct phases, with Phase Five currently in progress but nearing its end, marked by the release of “Thunderbolts.” However, the overarching narrative of the MCU is more effectively grasped when considering its larger “epic” or “saga” structure. The Infinity saga concluded with “Avengers: Endgame,” and the Multiverse saga emerged as its successor, presenting a blend of successful and less-than-impressive installments. “Spider-Man: No Way Home” and “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” successfully captured the multiverse concept, while “Deadpool 2” (with Wolverine) brought the X-Men into the franchise for the first time since Fox Studios’ reign over these characters. Productions like “The Marvels” and “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” on the other hand, have failed to resonate with audiences.
