“I loved fairy tales as a kid,” says Vicky Jenson, writer and director of new Netflix and Skydance fantasy animation, Spellbound, landing on Netflix today. “I liked really dark ones.

(If anybody walks in front of the screen to demonstrate their new jumper/slippers/iPhone case during this year’s Wallace and Gromit film, they’re going to need
This post contains full spoilers for Dune: Prophecy episode 2. “Two Wolves,” the second episode of Dune: Prophecy, offers more forward plot momentum than the series’ exposition-heavy premiere. But with the emphasis on action comes even more questions, as the show continues to reference aspects from the many millennia in the Dune timeline. Once again,
This article contains Arcane spoilers. Sadly, Arcane has ended and with it the tale of Piltover and Zaun.

Warning: contains spoilers (and potentially spoilery speculation). With apologies for my icy heart, I don’t give a mussel spat about the Harris family. This week’s flashback opener, which showed Sad John Harris inducting into the family business the wee son he’d just brained to death with a grappling hook, left me cold. Not as cold
