The live-action “How to Train Your Dragon” remake is written, directed, and produced by Dean DeBlois, who also directed the original animated trilogy. This film will follow the adventures of Hiccup (Mason Thames) as he befriends a rare Night Fury dragon named Toothless. The unlikely pair set out to create a bond between Vikings and dragons.DeBlois recently said they barely changed the script for the live-action remake, which is both a relief and begs the question…why remake it at all then? “How to Train Your Dragon” also stars Nico Parker as Astrid, Julian Dennison as Fishlegs, Gabriel Howell as Snotlout, Bronwyn James as Ruffnut, and Harry Trevaldwy as Tuffnut. Nick Frost will reprise…

“The Wheel of Time” tells the story of a man destined to face the Dark One and save the world – or destroy it. In Season 3, as threats against the Light are multiplying, Moiraine Damodred (Rosamund Pike) and Rand al’Thor (Josha Stradowski) embark on a perilous journey to the Aiel Waste to uncover the true fate of the Dragon Reborn. With the Forsaken in hot pursuit and Rand’s corrupted power growing stronger, Moraine must prevent the Dragon from turning Dark… no matter the cost. Animated spinoff film “The White Tower” still doesn’t have any production updates since announcing Jay Oliva as…

That thing when you say out loud “I really don’t need any more Loungefly backpacks, UNLESS….” Or is that just an us thing? Either way, you’ve GOT to see their brand new exclusive to Universal Studios theme park locations and a certain UK comic book shop. Inspired by the seminal 1999 film “The Mummy” starring Oscar winner Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weiss, this almost full-sized backpack recreates the iconic Book of the Dead which resurrects undead priest Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo).

Ah yes, the Super Bowl! That time we gather for snack foods, foot ball, and the great unveiling of trailers for upcoming films. While “Jurassic World: Rebirth” technically had the first teaser/trailer spot, it wasn’t a new look at the upcoming film. This one for “Mission: Impossible- The Final Reckoning” however, was! It hits theaters May 23rd, 2025.

Disneyland loves doing their special seasonal offerings. There’s the large-scale food and drink festivals (California Adventure has the Lunar New Year celebration right now), special ticketed events (like Sweethearts Nite, which is also happening right now), Halloween, and others. But one of the more popular in the last few years, probably since Galaxy’s Edge opened, is Season of the Force. As you can imagine, Season of the Force brings even more “Star Wars” to the parks. We’ve seen additional walk-around face characters, new interactive shows, ride and attraction plans being revealed, and of course, new merch.Disneyland has released a tease…

We were all shocked when news broke last week of a reboot / revival of “Buffy The Vampire Slayer.” True, the character did know additional ‘seasons’ in comic book form, it seemed like we’d never see the Chosen One Buffy Summers again. But that’s changing. A series has been pitched and seemingly approved by Hulu. Oscar winning filmmaker Chloé Zhao is set to direct a pilot, which was written by Nora and Lilla Zuckerman. And, it sure seems like Sarah Michelle Gellar is returning. “So….. you might have heard some news this week, but I realize you haven’t heard from me. Three years…

We’ve heard some interesting teasers thus far about the next chapter in the “Jurassic Park” film franchise. Obviously now they’re all called “Jurassic World,” which is where “Rebirth” comes in. This is yet another tale of humans having some wild reason to return to one of the InGEN locations where dinosaurs have taken over and still run wild. Sound familiar? It’s sort of the plot to every single one of these films after the first. Not to sound too down on a project before we even see it, but the new trailer isn’t really inspiring any kind of excitement in…
