Once upon a time, HBO created a show called Game of Thrones. And even though it joined the ranks of beloved shows with endings everyone hated, it was so popular that a bunch of other networks tried to make their own high fantasy epics. HBO readied a Game of Thrones prequel series called House of the Dragon, Netflix picked up The Witcher, and Amazon Prime Video sunk money into two series: The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power and The Wheel of Time. The high fantasy war had begun! Several years in, it’s pretty much over. The Witcher…

Can you believe it? 2025 is already nearing its end. It’s a year that has seen the release of some huge movies, including Sinners, 28 Years Later and Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning. But it’s not over yet: film fans still have plenty to look forward to before New Year’s Eve rolls around, as well as beyond into 2026. There’s a slate of new sequels and fresh adaptations ready to roll on film both at movie theatres and on home streaming services, as well as some entirely original stuff for movie lovers to sink their teeth into. From alien…

As the most beloved of Nintendo’s franchises after Mario, it’s long been a running joke that The Legend of Zelda is a series where you don’t actually play as the titular character. You could say Nintendo has form in this area, with the company’s first gaming hit – Donkey Kong – named after its antagonist. But that’s at least more interesting than being named after a character you’re just out to rescue. Named after Zelda Fitzgerald, the princess of Hyrule has more elegance and narrative depth over the course of the series’ near-four decades than the Mushroom Kingdom’s Princess Peach…

When Sony first introduced its InZone range of gaming gear, you couldn’t accuse it of aiming low. The PlayStation creator’s monitors and headsets were out to take on the established names, with prices to match. The line-up expanded earlier this year in the same vein, with mice, keyboards and this: a mouse mat that’ll set you back almost three figures. That’s right, the InZone Mat-F costs a whopping £89 in the UK. Is it especially whizz-bang for that kind of cash? Not particularly. The 480x400mm mat isn’t especially huge, is made from fabric rather than anything exotic like glass or…

We’re living in a golden age of entertainment, yet somehow, finding what to watch has turned into one of the week’s most annoying tasks. With so many streaming services overflowing with content, having no specific title in mind often means you end up lost in a sea of thumbnails, scrolling until your snacks run out. That “decision fatigue” people talk about is very real, and it’s quietly killing the fun of watching TV. So I decided to call for backup and hand over the tough choices to a neutral party: Reelgood Roulette. It’s a free streaming aggregator that pulls together…

George R.R. Martin is the author of the Song of Ice and Fire books, adapted by HBO as Game of Thrones. He’s also part of a class action lawsuit filed by the Authors Guild against OpenAI for copyright infringement. Large language models, such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT, work by training on vast amounts of written material, including Martin’s books. Should that be legal when those books are copyrighted? Why or why not? Those are the kinds of questions that Martin and other authors are trying to get the legal system to answer, and the judge in this case just handed them…

Some may argue that radio is going out of fashion, but I discovered the most addictive live radio site online, and I am hooked. It’s called Radio Garden. Although it offers a mobile app for both Android and iOS, you can also use this service with just a web browser on a PC or mobile device. I’ve spent the last few days using this service on my PC, and I feel like I’m living in the good old days again. It’s the reason I’ve started listening to 24/7 live radio stations instead of playlists. The world comes alive in sound…

Everyone knows that we live in the age of endless remakes, sequels, and reboots. It’s just the nature of the entertainment business right now, because that is what’s making money. However you might feel about that (I don’t particularly feel good about it), it doesn’t appear to be changing anytime soon. One of the big trends over the past decade or so has been live-action remakes of previously animated films or shows. After all, what could be better than seeing a colorful, gorgeous piece of animation brought to dreary life with all the CGI you could ever ask for? Truly…
