Rewatching Thor: Love and Thunder before Avengers Doomsday. It set up three things in 2022 and four years later not one of them went anywhere.

The 2026 He-Man movie is a tonal mess that bombed at the box office — and I still had a blast. Here’s why Jared Leto’s Skeletor saves it.
Disclosure Day is a solid 7. It’s the best straight-up X-Files successor since the show itself, it earns its first contact moment, and if you grew up believing the truth was out there, it’ll scratch that itch convincingly.
A review of The Fantastic Four First Steps, where the retro-futuristic world and the Silver Surfer land but Galactus is nowhere near big enough.
The Reality War discards the Rani, invents a daughter, rewrites Belinda’s whole series, and regenerates the Doctor into a face it refuses to explain.

The Interstellar Song Contest starts as a Eurovision spoof and turns into a hostage thriller, with the Doctor doing something genuinely cruel.
The Story and the Engine traps the Doctor in a Lagos barbershop powered by the stories its customers tell. Distinctive, warm, and unlike anything else.
