From soaring with dragons to facing off against Sephiroth and Aang, Magic: The Gathering has a packed year ahead. 2025 marks the first full cycle under Wizards of the Coast’s new release strategy, which splits the calendar evenly between the more classic Magic-original sets and the wildly popular "Universes Beyond" crossovers.

Most of the year’s main sets (aside from Avatar: The Last Airbender) are already available to preorder or buy on Amazon. That said, please also consult your local game store to find out when they're accepting preorders as well.

MTG: 2025 Release Calendar - At a Glance

Here’s your set-by-set guide to what’s dropping in 2025, breaking down release dates, when you can get your hands on everything, where you can preorder, and even includes a running list of every Secret Lair drop so far this year. We're starting off with a quick glance over the 2025 release calendar, but let's jump into a more in-depth look as well.

• Innistrad Remastered: Jan. 24, 2025 (Out Now)
• Aetherdrift: Feb. 14, 2025 (Out Now)
• Tarkir Dragonstorm: Apr. 11, 2025 (Out Now)
• Final Fantasy: Jun. 13, 2025
• Edge of Eternities: Aug. 1, 2025
• Marvel’s Spider-Man: Sept. 26, 2025
• Avatar: The Last Airbender: Nov. 21, 2025

Universes Beyond: Final Fantasy - Jun. 13

In television, nothing good can ever stay dead — and in a year that's seen new projects from universes as disparate as The Office and Buffy the Vampire Slayer re-enter production, beloved 2000s hospital sitcom Scrubs is next.

It's been 24 years since Zach Braff's character, junior doctor JD, first began his time at Sacred Heart Hospital. Now, Braff has agreed to reprise the role in ABC's upcoming Scrubs reboot, which is expected to feature a mix of new and returning faces.

If this concept sounds familiar, it's because ABC tried the idea before as part of Scrubs' ill-fated ninth season that featured Braff and other series regulars handing over the baton to a new, younger cast. The idea was not popular, and the season was canned after just nine episodes.

Randy Pitchford has addressed the backlash to his controversial Borderlands 4 $80 ‘real fans’ tweet after someone ran it through a Handsome Jack AI.

Pitchford sparked the backlash in responding to a fan who had expressed concern about the prospect of paying $80 for Borderlands 4, saying: “if you’re a real fan, you’ll find a way to make it happen.”

Here’s the exchange:

"Randy, this game better not be 80 dollars. Don't take that risk, a lot of gamers aren't gonna pay 80 dollars and feed this notion of constant increase of the price tag. You are the CEO, you have some say with the price when it comes to your publisher."

And here's Randy Pitchford's response:

"A) Not my call. B) If you’re a real fan, you’ll find a way to make it happen. My local game store had Starflight for Sega Genesis for $80 in 1991 when I was just out of high school working minimum wage at an ice cream parlor in Pismo Beach and I found a way to make it happen."

The response to Pitchford’s tweet has been mostly negative. “I am going to pirate Borderlands 4,” said one X / Twitter user. “Please stop. Just apologize and move on. This isn't fair on your developers. If you care about them, just do the right thing dude,” added another. “Randy we are begging you to stop. BL4 had so much hype and it’s being ruined in a day. Let people want to like and support the game and all the amazing people who made it,” said one commenter.

While Pitchford has yet to apologize directly for his comments, he did point to a recent answer he gave on-stage at PAX East on Borderlands 4's price, saying: “If you want the truth, here it is.”

And now, Pitchford inched closer to an actual apology after Borderlands streamer Moxsy tweeted dialogue from a Handsome Jack AI prompted by a user called Duke_Newcombe who fed it Pitchford's original tweet.

(Handsome Jack is the main antagonist of Borderlands 2 and self-appointed dictator of Pandora.)

Ohhh boo-hoo, $80 for Borderlands 4? Let me break out the world’s tiniest violin—crafted from Eridium and oiled with the tears of whiny Vault Hunters.

Listen, cupcake, you’re not buying a game. You’re investing in a premium, galaxy-shattering experience personally engineered to blast your sad little dopamine receptors into orbit. You think quality loot and chaotic mayhem just code itself? You want guns that sprout legs, sing sea shanties, and explode into loot goblins without paying top dollar? Grow up.

Back in my day, I built an entire moonbase with my own two hands (and a metric ton of disposable Hyperion interns), and you’re crying about spending a few bucks more to virtually murder skags with style? Puh-lease.

But hey, if $80 is too steep, there’s always a solution: just don’t buy it. More legendary drops for the rest of us, and fewer mouth-breathing freeloaders clogging up my loot pools. Win-win.

Stay broke, hero.

Google has launched an advanced AI video generation tool capable of creating Fortnite gameplay clips that look almost indistinguishable from the real thing.

Veo 3 launched this week and has already raised eyebrows for its dystopian ability to create life-like video clips from simple text-based prompts and include realistic-sounding audio.

Other generative AI programs, such as OpenAI's Sora, have been doing similar for some time — but the ability for Veo 3 to include lifelike audio really is a remarkable, if chilling, step forward.

Veo 3 users are still testing out what the tool is capable of, but within two days have begun producing Fortnite gameplay with a fake streamer commenting over the top. The quality is good enough that, while scrolling on social media, you'd think it was a legimate clip from YouTube or Twitch.

Technically, Veo 3 should not be infringing on anyone's copyrighted material — and it's safe to assume Fortnite developer Epic Games did not sign this one off. But clearly the AI tool has had access to the millions of hours of Fortnite gameplay posted online, and is now able to reproduce a convincing representation on command.

One clip, showing a streamer celebrating as they win a match using only their pickaxe, was apparently created within Veo 3 using a text-based prompt of nine words: "Streamer getting a victory royale with just his pickaxe".

Uhhh... I don't think Veo 3 is supposed to be generating Fortnite gameplay pic.twitter.com/bWKruQ5Nox

— Matt Shumer (@mattshumer_) May 21, 2025

In writing this prompt, Veo 3 has not been told specifically to create Fortnite gameplay. Still, it understands from the context what game the user is referring to.

Veo 3's abilities throw up all sorts of questions, and far more pressing ones than simple copyright concerns. The ability to create footage like this undoubtedly aids users looking to fool others with disinformation, and in so doing undermine trust in legitimate footage.

"I can not tell if this is real or not," reads one reply. "We're cooked," reads another.

"The only way this is possible is if Veo 3 was trained on an enormous amount of Fortnite content," a third reply reads. "Wouldn’t be surprised if everything that gets uploaded to YouTube is now being trained on despite copyright laws."

IGN has asked Epic for comment.

For a better look at what Veo 3 is capable of outside of video games, here's a clip of the algorithm creating a fake news report on an automobile trade show that doesn't exist, with fake interviewees answering fake questions.

Before you ask: yes, everything is AI here. The video and sound both coming from a single text prompt using #Veo3 by @GoogleDeepMind .Whoever is cooking the model, let him cook! Congrats @Totemko and the team for the Google I/O live stream and the new Veo site! pic.twitter.com/sxZuvFU49s

Microsoft has been interested in creating its own AI-generated footage of video games, and recently unveiled the early results of its Muse program, which it said it had trained on countless hours of Xbox shooter Bleeding Edge. Xbox boss Phil Spencer suggested Muse could be used to help ideate game concepts in the future, and even somehow aid in game preservation.

But Muse's reveal, quickly followed by the reveal of more fake gameplay footage generated by Muse of the classic shooter Quake 2, has prompted further debate — and raised questions over whether the tool would remove work or replace human creativity from existing employees.

Fortnite is no stranger to AI itself, of course. Last week, the game added the ability to chat with Star Wars' Darth Vader, who will reply using generative AI trained on the voice of the late James Earl Jones. Jones' voice is officially licensed (and was previously used to create dialogue for Disney's own Obi Wan Kenobi TV series) and sanctioned by both the late actor and his family, but the addition still prompted swift condemnation and an unfair labor practice charge from acting union SAG-AFTRA.

The biggest news today is that Magic The Gathering Marvel's Spider-Man preorders are back at Amazon. That includes the Play Booster Box, Scene Box, and full Bundle, all listed at standard retail with Amazon’s preorder price guarantee still in place.

That’s a breath of fresh air considering Pokémon TCG prices are still misbehaving. The Prismatic Evolutions Super Premium Collection is sitting at $259.95 on Amazon, while the Slashing Legends Tin is now $29.87.

Unless you absolutely need that Koraidon ex promo, you’re better off grabbing singles from Journey Together or Prismatic Evolutions on TCG Player while prices are still dropping.

TL;DR: Deals For Today

Elsewhere, the Sabrent SD Card Reader is down to $8.99, and INIU’s excellent lineup of power banks has multiple deals across sizes and wattages. The 10000mAh 5V model is now $15.98, while the 27000mAh 140W version is $71.99. IGN Store also has two Assassin’s Creed Shadows vinyl soundtracks up for preorder, with the Original Score 2LP at $42.00 and the full 4LP Soundtrack Collection at $98.00. Over on Humble, the Xbox Game Studios Bundle is still a solid pickup for $10, and the Learn to Program 2025 Bundle is a great value for anyone who wants to dive into Python or C++ without spending triple digits.

MTG: Marvel's Spider-Man Preorders

Spidey is slinging his way to Magic: The Gathering Universes Beyond later this year, completing an epic lineup of licenced sets that are bound to breakdown the entry barrier of MTG for most.

Suprisingly, the Play Booster Box and Spidey's Spectacular Showdown Scene Box are back up for preorder. The Spidey Bundle has also just popped up for preorder again with Amazon's pre-order price guarantee, meaning we shouldn't see the incredibly jacked prices other TCG products have been experiencing with big box retailers.

It's a dream set for Marvel fans, who should get on this set early before prices on single cards goes through the roof.

MTG Final Fantasy Preorders

Meanwhile preorders for Magic the Gathering: Final Fantasy are still up at Walmart and Amazon, specifically the Bundle and Starter Kit for retail pricing.

This is set to be the biggest MTG set in the history of the trading card game, so it's a wise choice to preorder now. You can also preorder single cards at the moment too:

MTG FF Single Card Prices Before Launch

I've focused on some of the more popular character appearances here, but there's plenty more to secure with this set having nearly 700 cards including Extended Art, Boarderless and Surge Foil variants.

The worst thing you can do as a Magic or FF fan is to sleep on this set, it's going to explode. These are the current biggest cards in the set before launch on June 5.

Bear in mind it's mega risky to buy before release day, as prices could plummit in the meantime. Still, it's worth keeping an eye on what's hot, and what's not!

INIU Power Bank Sale

Amazon is running a solid range of discounts on INIU power banks, covering everything from ultra-portable 10,000mAh models to heavy-duty bricks that can charge your laptop. The compact 10000mAh 5V/3A model is just $15.98 (was $21.99), and the sleek 22.5W 10000mAh version — marketed as the smallest in its class — is down to $22.99.

For more power, the 22.5W 20000mAh option is $29.99, and the MagSafe-compatible 45W 10000mAh model has dropped to $35.99 from $49.99.

Xbox Game Studios Bundle

Prismatic Evolutions SPC

Amazon is back on top for the worst pricing in Pokémon TCG at the moment, with Prismatic Evolutions Super Premium Collections rocking a price tag around three times the MSRP.

TCG Player is valuing this at around $224.43 right now, saving trainers over $30. That's great, but still a tall order if you're not interested in the Eevee deck box and promo.

There's 15 booster packs in the SPC, which also means you could buy a couple of Prismatic Evolutions Booster Bundles from TCG Player instead for $137.98 to snag 12 booster packs, or 18 booster packs for $206.92. It's still not ideal, but that's the value of them right now.

Buying from a dedicated Pokémon TCG secondary market is cheaper than big box stores these days. Don't want to put that much money down on chance? Prismatic Evolutions single cards are nose diving right now:

Prismatic Evolutions Single Cards Are Crashing

This Weeks Crashers And Climbers

It's becoming abundantly clear that buying up singles on the Pokémon TCG collector market is the way forward for trainers right now.

Some chase cards that have crashed recently are cheaper than some overpriced booster bundles currently.

Some of the prices above look crazy, but some of them we're nearly double just a couple of weeks ago, with the latter 5 cards climbing higher and higher.

If your heart is set on ripping open booster packs, let's get into the best way to do just that without destroying your life savings (much).

If you're desperate for some big box retailer products, here you go.

Just make sure to be savvy before buying, as 9 times out of 10 TCG Player will be cheaper in this climate.

GeoGuessr has withdrawn from the Esports World Cup after players and map creators slammed the team for participating in the event that, controversially, will be hosted by Saudi Arabia later this summer.

GeoGuessr is tremendously successful, boasting 85 million users in a geography game that drops players in random places around the world and asks them to work out where they are. There's a whole host of developer and community-made customization options that let players tailor not only who they play against, but also what maps will spawn, if they'll be dropped into an urban or rural setting, restrict spawns to certain geographical regions, toggle the ability to move, pan, or zoom — or not move, pan or zoom (NMPZ) — and more, including a smorgasbord of fantastic community-made custom maps. It's long been an esports staple.

However, yesterday (May 22), Zemmip — posting on behalf of "creators of a considerable share of GeoGuessr's most popular maps" — staged a "blackout," making its maps unplayable in protest at the "company's decision to host a World Championship wildcard tourney at the Esports World Cup in Riyadh."

"Groups targeted by the government include women, LGBTQ people, apostates and atheists, political dissenters, migrant workers in the Kafala system, religious minorities, and many others," Zemmip said on the GeoGuessr subreddit. "The subjugation of these groups is extensive and pervasive. Members of these groups are routinely subjected to discrimination, imprisonment, torture, and even public executions. These severe human rights violations are well-documented and indisputable.

"By participating in the EWC, GeoGuessr is contributing to that sportswashing agenda, which is designed to take attention away from Saudi Arabia's human rights violations," the statement added.

The blackout included dozens of creators and their maps, "including a supermajority of the most popular competitively relevant world maps." The organizers said the blackout would continue until "GeoGuessr cancels its wildcard event in Saudi Arabia and commits to not hosting any events there as long as it continues its oppressive regime."

"You don't play games with human rights," the statement concluded.

1. Launch Dead Spells on Roblox
2. When you log into a server, go straight ahead past the water fountain.
3. Then, look for the blue lizard wearing a monacle near the noticeboard. It will say Enter Codes above it
4. Approach the lizard and interact with it to enter codes

How to Redeem Codes for Dead Spells

We check for new codes every day, so the best way to find out about the latest Dead Spells code is to save this article and keep checking back. You can also hunt for codes in the dediated Discord server, where codes are also announced.

Why Isn't My Dead Spells Codes Working?

If your code for Dead Spells isn't working, it's likely for one of two reasons:

1. The code has been entered incorrectly
2. The code has expired

If a code is not accepted in Dead Spells, it will say "code does not exist or is expired." It doesn't make it clear what the problem is, you'll just know the code hasn't worked. The good news is, if you use our article, we'll move codes into expired when they stop working, so you can tell the difference. If a code is in the active and working list, however, be sure to copy and paste it exactly as you see it here. We test each of the codes before uploading them, and Roblox codes are often case-sensitive, so it's important that it's exact.

Succession star Kieran Culkin has secured the part of a young Caesar Flickerman in Lionsgate’s The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping movie adaptation, following months of rumors.

Lionsgate confirmed the news on X/Twitter today, confirming that Culkin would indeed appear as The Hunger Games’ colorful and eccentric TV host in next year’s book-to-movie adaptation. The mystery of who would play Caesar Flickerman has had readers’ heads spinning since rumors began to swirl earlier this year. Now that the fancast has been officially confirmed, all eyes are on Lionsgate to bring its prequel to life.

Sunrise on the Reaping is yet another prequel adaptation for eager Hunger Games readers. It takes place after 2023’s The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes and long before the events of the Jennifer Lawrence-led Hunger Games movies that premiered throughout the 2010s. Stanley Tucci was prominently featured as Caesar Flickerman in the film series that finished its story in 2015, leaving Culkin with big shoes to fill as he preps to play a younger version of the character.

“Kieran’s scene-stealing presence and undeniable charm are perfect for Caesar Flickerman, the sickeningly watchable host of Panem’s darkest spectacle,” Lionsgate Motion Picture Group Co-President Erin Westerman said in a statement. “Stanley Tucci made Caesar unforgettable—and now Kieran will make the role entirely his own.”

Culkin has left a massive mark on TV and film in the last few years thanks to his roles as characters like Roman Roy in Succession and Benji Kaplan in last year’s A Real Pain (which won Culkin a BAFTA Award, a Golden Globe Award, and an Academy Award). Movie fans may also recognize Culkin from his time as a child actor in films like 1991’s Father of the Bride as well as 1990’s Home Alone, where he appeared alongside his brother, Macaulay Culkin. Kieran’s recent time in the spotlight has seen him build a career off of his quick wit, making his casting as The Hunger Games’ dystopian TV host in Sunrise on the Reaping feel like a match made in heaven.

The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping’s release date is currently set for November 20, 2026. When it brings Suzanne Collins’ novel of the same name to the big screen, viewers can expect to see Culkin star alongside Ralph Fiennes (Conclave, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows) as President Coriolanus Snow, Elle Fanning (Super 8) as Effie Trinket, Jesse Plemons (Civil War, Breaking Bad) as Plutarch Heavensbee, Joseph Zada (Total Control) as Haymitch Abernathy, and more.

There’s a healthy swarm of discounts buzzing across every platform today, from indie gems to AAA heavy-hitters. Whether you're into sword-swinging epics, musical dungeon crawlers, or cosmic cowboy chaos, there’s something here worth chucking onto your backlog. Let's dig into the weird, wonderful, and wallet-friendly highlights for this very rainy Thursday.

This Day in Gaming 🎂

In retro news, I'm celebrating the 28th birthday of Fighters Megamix, the Sega Saturn's answer to Smash Bros before that was even a thing. Sega of the '90s was especially 3D fightin' obsessed, so the concept here was simple—smoosh a bunch of brawlers from the Virtua Fighter series, Fighting Vipers, and other games into one punch-a-rrific package. I remember being particularly stoked with the ten weirdo unlockable characters, like some Sonic the Fighters contestants, the palm tree from AM2's logo, a gun-packing Janet from Virtua Cop, and a *double checks memory* Daytona USA NASCAR.

The Amazon Memorial Day sale kicked off last Friday, but all of the other retailers have since come out with their own competing Memorial Day sales. Amazon has remained the most popular sale, however, so I decided to do some digging into what discounts are actually worth shopping right now and what you can probably hold off on buying. With Prime Day on the horizon, I've been on the hunt for only the absolutely best prices possible and have handpicked some deals I think are worth a look.

The full Amazon Memorial Day sale includes a lot of discounts, but not everything that is currently discounted is that good of a deal. If you're trying to save as much money as possible, I'd recommend looking at the price history of that item on Amazon to make sure it is actually a good value. I've gone ahead and done that already for all of the deals listed below to save you some time.

Amazon Memorial Day Sale - The Best Deals Today

Like I mentioned above, all of the deals I've listed here are at the lowest prices we've ever seen on Amazon. I took advantage of the CamelCamelCamel website to check the current prices against historical pricing on Amazon to make sure I'm only recommending actually good deals. The first major sale I recommend here is the 65-inch LG C4 OLED TV that's on sale. This is one of the overall best TVs you can buy right now and it very recently dropped to this new low price for the sale. The latest iPad model is also down to its lowest-ever price again after getting temporarily marked up. It's only been out for a few months, so any discount at all is noteworthy.

Outside of the more expensive tech purchases, there are also some pretty decent Memorial Day video game deals within this sale. The one I've highlighted here is Kingdom Come: Deliverance II which only just came out this year and is already in the running for best game of 2025. A $20 discount may not seem like much, but it's a great price for a relatively new game that has already sold pretty well at full price. For more physical media, we've also found a few decent 4K movie deals not featured here as well as a new low on the Throne of Glass books.

Finally, there are some noteworthy grill deals I couldn't help but include. Memorial Day sales are one of the best times of the year to save money on a grill and I've been looking to buy a new one myself. There's the standard Charbroil grill that comes in at a relatively reasonable price point that I'd recommend for anyone just looking for a decent backyard grill. Then there's the more impressive Traeger electric smoker grill that is great if you're looking to really get into cooking meats this summer. Both grills are currently at their lowest-ever prices on Amazon today.

Should You Wait for Amazon Prime Day to Shop?

It's smart to have a light source on hand for emergencies, especially since everyday carry flashlights can be had for a throwaway price. Right now, Amazon is offering the Olight IMINI2 Keychain Flashlight for just $13.99 after a 30% price drop. This flashlight is tiny, easily accessible, rechargeable, and at this price, not the end of the world if you misplace it.

This tiny little stick features both USB 3.0 Type C and USB Type-A ports for maximum compatibility.

Not everyone is the DIY type. If you're in the market for a prebuilt gaming PC, Dell is one of the best brands we'd recommend. Alienware desktops and laptops feature solid build quality, top-of-the-line gaming performance, excellent cooling (further improved on the newer models), aggressive styling, and pricing that is very competitive with other pre-built options. Best of all, there are plenty of sales that happen throughout the year, so it's not difficult to grab one of these computers at considerably less than their retail price. This page includes all of the best deals that are currently available.

Have you won the battle to secure a Nintendo Switch 2 preorder? Well, now it's time to set your sights on the new Pro Controller, which is also available starting today. It's currently orderable via Target, Walmart, Gamestop, and Best Buy for $84.99 with a release date of June 5. Just like the Switch 2 console itself, we expect this item to become much harder to find and possibly more expensive if tariffs go back up, so this may very well be the best opportunity to secure one.

Disney dabbled in live-action remakes of its classic animated movies in the '90s -- see: 101 Dalmatians and 102 Dalmatians -- but once the House of Mouse struck gold with 2015's Cinderella and 2016's The Jungle Book, there was no going back. And then when 2017's Beauty and the Beast remake crossed a billion? Forget about it.

With Disney's latest live-action re-do -- the beloved (and merchandise windfall) Lilo & Stitch -- hitting theaters this week, and right on the heels of Snow White too, we decided to paint the roses red with our own list of the Best Live-Action Disney Remakes.

To some Disney die-hards, these live-action remakes are a hard pass. And regardless of how many feel about the "cashing in" aspects of these films, or whether or not you think they're soulless compared to the original animated version, there are some gems in the bunch. There are also some directors behind these films who have reverence for the material and actually bring the stories to life in new, poignant ways. What's your favorite live-action Disney remake? Did it make our list? Vote in our poll and find out below...

(Oh, and this list is for remakes only -- not prequels, sequels, or re-imagined takes on characters like your Maleficents, Cruellas, Christopher Robbinses, etc.)

10. Aladdin (2019)

2019's Aladdin -- which features Will Smith as the Genie in the magically manic voice role owned by the legendary Robin Williams -- sits here at 10 on our list as the official wall separating decent to great live-action Disney remakes and the dregs. Aladdin didn't offer up much new, but it was still better-than-people-thought-it-would-be, which sort of becomes the gold standard after a movie fad or franchise goes on long enough. Aladdin, directed by Guy Ritchie, played the hits while also offering up more interesting material for Jasmine and the Genie. It was lively and colorful and, for the most part, harmless.

9. 101 Dalmations (1996)

Disney had a runaway hit on its hands in the mid-'90s when Oscar-winner Glenn Close donned black and white hair as crazed canine coveter Cruella de Vil for a 101 Dalmatians remake. Using early-stages CGI to enhance this doggone adventure (but without making the dogs talk like in the original movie), 101 Dalmatians was the toast of the holiday movie season in 1996. Geared more for kids, making it a bit of a grind for grownups, 101 Dalmatians was a slapdash display of slapstick upgraded by Close's kooky go-for-broke (Golden Globe-nominated) performance.

8. Mulan (2020)

The Mulan remake hit its mark with an epic scale, some spectacular action, and a dynamic lead in Liu Yifei. It honored the spirit and fun of the original while also making distinct changes (like ditching dragon pal Mushu, removing the songs, changing the love interest, etc.). These tweaks and turns actually help the 2020 Mulan feel like a confident retelling, with impactful messaging and meaning, rather than a retread of old hits. By grounding the saga a bit more, this Mulan truly became a girl worth fighting for.

7. Alice in Wonderland (2010)

If any classic Disney animation was going to get the Tim Burton treatment, Alice in Wonderland was the optimal candidate (while history has taught us that 2019's Dumbo was the least ideal). The end result was not only a uniquely Tim Burton display of oddball wonders but also a billion-dollar hit about five years before Disney would fully unleash the floodgates with these big live-action reworkings. Bringing some key members of the Burton Brigade with him -- namely Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, and composter Danny Elfman -- Burton blended elements of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and sequel Through the Looking-Glass (just as the 1951 animated movie did) and unleashed a lush, subversively witty odyssey through a strange, strange land.

6. Beauty and the Beast (2017)

As one of the most initially daunting projects of this remake era, Beauty and the Beast was always going to have big, beastly shoes to fill. Not only was the original movie the first-ever animated feature to be nominated for a Best Picture Oscar, but the deep fan love for this story -- far surpassing fandoms for Jungle Book and Cinderella and the remakes that came before it -- was always going to cast a massive shadow. Fortunately, thanks to the direction of Bill Condon and terrific performances from a game cast -- namely Emma Watson and Dan Stevens -- the Beauty and the Beast remake is an enchanting movie that includes the many elements fans of the animated classic would hope to see, while also introducing some new aspects that work really well.

5. The Little Mermaid (2023)

2023's The Little Mermaid met us in a very different pop-culture world and media landscape than the previous remakes. It was the first Disney live-action remake to get wide theatrical release post-pandemic (Mulan, Pinocchio, and Peter Pan & Wendy were all released on Disney+, though Mulan was supposed to be released in theaters) and so not only did it need to carry the burden of being a blockbuster during times when movies just don't (sort of automatically) make a billion dollars anymore, but it also had to suffer from internet toxicity. Despite all of that, The Little Mermaid had us all riding high on a warm wave of nostalgia, dazzled by a brilliant, vulnerable performance by star Halle Bailey.

4. Cinderella (2015)

Kenneth Branagh's excellent, charming Cinderella remake -- starring Lily James, Cate Blanchett, and Richard Madden -- never exactly leads the charge in conversations about Disney remakes. It might be because more focus is given to the 1990s "Disney Renaissance" movies than to the classic movies that came out in the '30s through the '60s since, generationally, they target the modern movie-going public more. Or it could also be because Cinderella is very old school when it comes to gender norms, centering a story around a woman pining to be rescued from her life by a prince. All that aside though, this version of Cinderella is wonderful, maintaining a harmony between honoring the classic Disney rendition and grounding the film just enough for it to work with a modern audience.

3. Peter Pan & Wendy (2023)

The Disney live-action remakes have brought out award-caliber directors -- from Rob Marshall to Bill Condon to Jon Favreau -- but, as fate would have it, the visionary who's best at these modern revampings is The Green Knight's David Lowery, who's landed two films on this list: two films that have flown severely under the remake radar. The first is released-to-streaming Peter Pan & Wendy, a whimsically morose take on Peter Pan that zigs when you think it should zag. Instead of being a boisterous family adventure, it's a masterfully moving tale about loss with a gorgeous backdrop. Jude Law, perhaps previewing a bit of what he'd also deliver on Star Wars: Skeleton Crew, plays Captain Hook in this incredible film about accepting life's tragedies.

2. The Jungle Book (2016)

Seen as a movie that kicked off the decade of Disney remakes, Jon Favreau's The Jungle Book is a wild, heartfelt adaptation that some even feel surpasses the original (and it's one of the few films on this list to be able to tout that). Using all the CGI in the world to populate its jungle, opening up a discourse about what actually constitutes "live-action," The Jungle Book boasts voices from Bill Murray, Ben Kingsley, Idris Elba, Scarlett Johansson, and Christopher Walken. It's a stunning achievement that's fun for all ages, and before the consensus started leaning negative toward these remakes, The Jungle Book had everyone believing.

1. Pete's Dragon (2016)

Ok, number one is a bit of a cheat since the original 1977 Pete's Dragon was a live-action/animation mix, but David Lowery's modestly seen Pete's Dragon from 2016 is a sweet, beautiful look at two vulnerable souls caring for one another. It's hopeful, heartfelt, and full of wonder. Was this entire list written just so we could recommend Pete's Dragon to you? Who can say? But this Pete's Dragon finds magic where the original one may have faltered. It's a true re-imagining that improves upon the previous material. Bryce Dallas Howard, Wes Bentley, Karl Urban, and a young Oakes Fegley star in this exceptional offering.

LEGO Star Wars The Mandalorian Helmet Is On Sale

It’s a real feat to create a movie that gets less interesting once occult stuff starts going down, but Shudder’s newest original movie manages to do just that. The Surrender covers an ambitious amount of ground for a story set in one location, but its compelling, character-driven plot gets so lost in paranormal drivel that it ultimately feels pointless.

The feature debut of writer-director Julia Max is half family drama, half supernatural horror, and that first half is actually quite strong. The Boys star Colby Minifie brings a sort of feral rage to Megan, an only child navigating in-home palliative care for her father, Robert (Vaughn Armstrong), alongside her overbearing mother, Barbara (Kate Burton). You can tell that Max has lived through the slow and painful loss of a parent: The Surrender was inspired by the death of her stepfather, and Robert’s fictional demise is grounded and specific as Megan and Barbara navigate medication schedules and adult diapers. The movie is strongest when it’s focused on the relationships between its characters. There’s an obvious power struggle unfolding between Megan and Barbara, as they bicker about medicine and family money and reignite old grievances. When Robert finally dies, Megan and Barbara are briefly, beautifully united by grief.

And then the supernatural horror kicks in. Turns out Barbara, swayed by her anti-vax yoga teacher, has hired a nameless man to resurrect Robert via occult ritual. (Classic mom stuff!) Megan, who up until now has been compulsively incapable of not arguing with her mother, is weirdly amenable to this plan – or at least amenable enough to keep the plot loping along. As the ritual unfolds and the women’s journey grows more perilous, The Surrender completely loses its footing, yanking Megan out of a reality ruled by the striking mundanity of grief and into a metaphysical realm defined by blood and nonsense.

This type of thing can certainly coexist with a realistic onscreen depiction of loss: Hereditary, The Babadook, The Descent, The Invitation – if you want horror movies that grapple with the existential dread surrounding death, there’s your watch list. But it’s a matter of striking the right balance, and The Surrender is noticeably off-kilter. It speeds through Robert’s death – and all the excellent, nuanced material surrounding it – then becomes slow and stale once Barbara reveals her plan to bring him back. It takes forever for the ceremony to get underway, and once it does, all the wailing and bloodshed that ensues is far less chilling than Robert’s actual death. As The Surrender stutters to a close, the pacing becomes even more erratic. Major events fly by quickly and without fanfare, but get ready to sit through multiple insipid flashbacks to Megan’s childhood.

Max shows promise as a director, even if she mismanages the extra time. She and production designer Tahryn Smith make excellent use of their indie budget by turning Robert and Barbara’s house into the ultimate pressure cooker. A massive library and open-concept kitchen make the couple’s wealth apparent, but they also become the staging grounds for devastating arguments and dark deeds. Some of the scares are well-crafted, too, like one sequence where Megan sees ghostly eyes behind her in a mirror.

Ultimately, though, The Surrender’s fatal error is that it mistakes freakishness for scariness. A successful horror movie about grief doesn’t pile a bunch of horrifying stuff on top of the loss – it amplifies the terrifying feelings that already come with it. While we’re taken slowly and monotonously into a darker, less human world, Megan and Barbara’s grief is sidelined. As a result, this is a horror movie where the horror elements feel redundant. The Surrender pulls off a few fun visual tricks, but it’s moments like Megan and Barbara teaming up to close Robert’s mouth before rigor mortis sets in that really linger.

Has there ever been a more climactic end to a woeful football season? Both Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United have endured a torrid few months domestically, with the two clubs sitting in low league positions.

Thankfully, there’s a chance for at least one of them to emerge with some credibility this season, with the Europa League trophy up for grabs. The final, which will be played in Bilbao, Spain, will host the all-English affair.

Not only is the trophy itself to be coveted, but the winner will also snag another chance at the Champions League next season. With that comes added pull for what’s likely to be a hectic summer for both teams, as well as a chance to play against the best teams in Europe, so there’s a lot at stake.

How to Stream the Champions League Final in the US

We've spoken before about how Paramount+ is one of the best streaming services for sports at $7.99 minimum, and it's been no different for the Champions League.

If you are eligible for a free trial, however, make sure that you turn off your auto-renew so you don't get charged at the end of the week if you don't plan on using the service afterwards.

How to Watch the Europa League Final for Free

The Europa League final kicks off at 8pm BST / 3pm ET on May 21, and will be shown for free on Discovery+ in the UK, and subscribers-only on Paramount+ in the US ($7.99/month).

If you're in the US (or anywhere else globally) and own a VPN, then you should be able to use it to get around the geo-blockers and make use of the other country's service where the match will also be available (Discovery+ for example in the UK).

Using a VPN (like those we've shown above) to change your location to London, you can simply log into your discovery+ account, and enjoy the Champions League final for free.

If you aren't yet a free member, you will need to register your information, though, so be sure to do that in advance so you’re not scrambling around with seconds before kickoff.

“Viewers without discovery+ simply need to download the app on their mobile device, web or access via their TV, register their details online, kick back and enjoy the game for free,” TNT Sports explained for those in the UK.

Spurs v Man United Record: Did You Know?

Spurs have already beaten United not once, not twice, but three times this season. Does that give them a psychological edge? It’s hard to say, but it’ll be interesting to see if they can make it four from four. In fact, between the two sides, they’ve lost 39 matches in the Premier League this season.

GameStop currently has over 300 physical games on sale for just $15. As part of their Quick Saves deal, select PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch titles are available at super low prices. Sales like this typically only offer shovelware titles most people wouldn't be interested in, but GameStop's Quick Saves deal has countless indie and AAA games that are absolutely worth picking up now if you've missed them. Say sorry to your backlog, I know I will be.

Some collector's and deluxe editions are also available, as well as a small amount of LimitedRun games like Worms. You can also grab a couple of Blu-rays, too!

For more sales like this, make sure to check out our full roundup of Memorial Day video game deals going on right now.

Physical Games for Just $15 at GameStop

This GameStop sale has a ton of critically successful titles, including games from years passed and recent releases. If you're an FGC fan, Tekken 8 is available and is one of the series' best entries according to our review. Then there's Persona 5 Tactica, a tactical RPG set in the middle of Persona 5. With all of these and more at just $15, it's the perfect time to stock up for a rainy day.

Save on Deluxe, Premium, Limited, and Collector's Editions

This $15 sale extends to massive collector's and premium edition box sets of some games. You can pick up the massive Dead Island 2 HELL-A Edition that typically goes for $99.99 MSRP, which comes with the game disc and steelbook case, the expansion pass, badges and pins, and a foldout map of Venice Beach. Then there's Dragon Age: The Veilguard Deluxe Edition, usually $69.99, that includes a variety of weapon and armor skins.

Save on Select Blu-Rays

Finally, you can buy a handful of Blu-rays as part of this $15 sale. The selection is a bit sparse, but you can pick up season 1 of HBO's The Last of Us to catch up before season 2 ends this Sunday. I recommend grabbing the Super Mario Bros. Movie Blu-ray before its sequel is out as well. The next movie's title leaked, and I'm excited to see how the next film pays homage to a retro classic.

Not every streaming platform is available in every country. Fortunately, that’s not the case for Netflix – in fact, it’s harder to find a country in which Netflix isn’t offered. This means that you can always find some version of Netflix regardless of the country you’re in. Well, unless you travel to China. The trouble is that, Netflix originals aside, the available content varies by country.

If you travel outside the U.S., you may not be able to stream your preferred TV shows and movies. Even if you try to access US Netflix from abroad, you’ll be redirected to your current location's library or face some sort of geo-blocking or error message. The good news is that through extensive testing, I’ve identified the best VPNs for Netflix to get around this.

TL;DR: These Are the Best VPNs for Netflix US

So what is a VPN and how exactly does it work? A VPN is a service through which you connect to a server in your preferred location. The VPN then routes your traffic through an encrypted tunnel to your chosen VPN server. Not only does this secure your data from prying eyes, it essentially spoofs your location so you can bypass geographic blocks on content.

Despite the media world moving to digital, I find myself with a surprising amount of physical media in my home with nowhere to put it. I've got books, video games, LEGO sets, and even some old DVDs just laying around in different bins in the closet. All of these items are important to me in some way, but I just don't currently have a good enough storage option to properly display everything. I am in desperate need of a good bookcase that can fit both my style and my budget, so I've found myself browsing Memorial Day sales looking for furniture deals.

There are a lot of furniture deals going on right now at pretty much every retailer, but for bookshelves and bookcases I've found that Wayfair is the easiest place to browse. Amazon and Target also have Memorial Day sales on furniture going on right now, but for this specific need, Wayfair seems to have the most options at affordable prices. Below, I've gathered a few cool options that I've found so far, but there is a whole section of deals on bookcases across all price points to look at.

Wayfair Bookcase Ideas on Sale Now

Like I mentioned above, there are literally pages and pages of bookshelves in this sale. If you're just going straight into it, I'd suggest using the filters on the site. You can adjust the dimensions of your search based on what size bookshelf you're looking for, choose the frame or shelf material, and sort by price. If you don't like any of the options I've featured above, narrowing down your search will save you a ton of time browsing the options available.

The deals I did feature are just a few of my favorite options I'm considering. The two geometric cases offer the coolest design, but not nearly as much storage as the much larger options. The Trivette Geometric bookcase seems like a really cool video game storage idea, but I'm not sure it would work as well for my book collection as the Steel Geometric Bookcase. There's also the kids bookshelf that would be great for including all of my son's baby books, but he will eventually grow out of those. All in all, there's plenty to consider.

Wayfair has the biggest overall Memorial Day furniture sales you can find online. If you're looking for storage options, a new couch, or outdoor furniture, there's discounts on just about everything right now.

Summer is fast approaching, which means it’s time for Warhammer Skulls. The ultimate showcase of Warhammer video games is back for its ninth year, hosted for the third time by actor and superfan Rahul Kohli. There will be world premieres, exclusive reveals, and update announcements, and you can watch it all live.

Showcase Date, Time, and Where to Watch

The festivities will begin on May 22 at 5:00 p.m. BST, which means 12:00 p.m. Eastern / 11: 00 a.m. Central / 9:00 a.m. Pacific. You can see times for other regions in the graphic at the bottom of this page. IGN will livestream the full event, which will be around 50 minutes long. You can tune in on any of these channels:

IGN.com (our homepage)

IGN’s Facebook

IGN’s Twitter

IGN’s Twitch

IGN’s YouTube

If you’re not able to watch the showcase live, no worries. We’ll post the whole event on YouTube after it’s finished, like we did for last year’s show.

What to Expect from This Year’s Showcase

As usual, this year’s showcase will feature exciting world premieres, reveals, and updates for several games. You can count on updates for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, since we know Patch 8 and Horde Mode (or whatever it ends up officially being called) are on the horizon. Publisher Focus Entertainment previously gave an overview of Horde Mode, saying you can play with three players (or bots replacing the other players) and that the map will be in Kadaku. However, we don’t have a release date or know everything else that’s coming in Patch 8.

That’s the game we can be most confident in being part of the show, but there are several others that should be in line for updates and new info too. There’s Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus II, which was announced with a trailer at last year’s Warhammer Skulls. There’s Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, which as of December is now available on PS5 in addition to Xbox Series X/S and PC. Now that it’s established itself across platforms, there will be new content coming.

We know there’s DLC coming for Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, but so far only know it’s planned to release in the summer. And there are plenty of other games that could see updates or new content — like Total War: Warhammer 3, Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus, Warhammer: Vermintide 2, Warhammer 40,000: Warpforge, and Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector. Plus, there’s sure to be brand-new premieres and announcements nobody could predict.

On top of all that, the showcase on May 22 also marks the beginning of a week-long celebration with marked down prices and freebies. During that week, you can get up to 90% off Warhammer titles, and there will be new content, DLCs, and free updates across several platforms, including Steam, Xbox, PlayStation, Epic Games Store, Microsoft Store, GOG, and Geforce Now.
