J.J. Abrams’ spy drama Alias, which turns 20 this week, was a lot of things: high-octane action-adventure series, twentysomethings relationship drama, occasional National Treasure homage. It was also, surprisingly, a spiritual predecessor to today’s hyper-saturated superhero movie and TV universes: A preternaturally gifted fighter, Sydney Bristow (Jennifer Garner) inhabits comic-book-esque alter egos to infiltrate secret

Lucasfilm had good news and bad news for Star Wars fans looking forward to new Disney+ shows this year. The bad news is that you’ll have to wait a bit longer for The Mandalorian season 3 than expected, with the new season set to film some time this fall. But like I said, there’s also
New World features some of the most interesting character-building, skills, and weapons systems I’ve seen in an MMO in quite some time.

But we will get to see the first steps the future boss of the
Genre TV fans owe a lot to the spy drama Alias. Premiering twenty years ago this week (just..how??), Alias was a near-instant critical and commercial success thanks to its near-perfect pilot episode.

Amazon’s New World is the company’s best chance yet at a hit game, and if New World‘s day one player count numbers are any indication of the MMO’s long-term outlook, then they may very well indeed have a somewhat surprising success on their hands.

Something that impresses me with a superhero movie like Venom is when it doesn’t rush directly into the expected villain.
