The fantasy series will return in June, though not all episodes will be available at once.

I saw this trailer yesterday and I was quite impressed. I am going to really look forward to this functionally finale of the series. Never thought that "The Witcher" would suffer the behind the scenes problems it unfortunately did when it aired in December 2019 (SMDH).
 
Foundation is based on the same-titled book series by influential science fiction novelist Isaac Asimov.

MTG's Lord of the Rings Controversy Returns as 'Fans' Attack Black Aragorn

Aragorn in Magic: The Gathering's Lord of the Rings Universes Beyond set.
Magic: The Gathering's take on The Lord of the Rings' Aragorn causes a fervor on social media.

Since the news broke that Magic: The Gathering's upcoming The Lord of the Rings set features a black Aragorn, social media has been awash in comments regarding the set's "blackwashing" of the character. While some have pointed toward descriptions of Aragorn in J.R.R. Tolkien's original works as "pale," others have taken aim at the game's developer, Wizards of the Coast, for "virtue signaling."

Fans have pushed back against the idea that a black Aragorn is in any way disrespectful of the series. Jimmy Wong even noted actor Viggo Mortensen, who portrayed Aragorn in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings trilogy, and who described the character he portrayed as "a polyglot statesman that advocates for the awareness and inclusion of the various races, customs and languages of Middle Earth."

Apart from Aragorn, Tales of Middle-earth has also come under fire for its depictions of Galadriel and Eowyn as Black and its mixed-race couples, most prominently Aragorn and Arwen. These complaints have hardly shuttered overall enthusiasm for the LOTR's set, however, which is slated to see its first round of products launch on June 23, with further Starter Kits, Commander Decks, and Draft, Set, Collector, and Jumpstart Boosters releasing in early November.

I’m usually not a fan of race swapping major characters, but sometimes trolling racists is worth it.
 

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Swings to $120.5M Opening


Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse” opened in U.S. and Canadian theaters with a massive $120.5 million, more than tripling the debut of the 2018 animated original and showing the kind of movie-to-movie box-office growth that would be the envy of even the mightiest of Hollywood franchises.

Sony Pictures’ “Across the Spider-Verse,” the multi-verse spinning animated Spider-Man spinoff, sailed way past expectations, according to studio estimates Sunday, riding terrific reviews (95% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes) and strong buzz for the hotly anticipated follow-up to the Oscar-winning “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.”

In the sometimes formulaic realm of superhero movies, 2018?s “Into the Spider-Verse” offered a blast of originality, introducing a teenage web-slinger from Brooklyn, Miles Morales ( Shameik Moore ), a punk-rock Gwen (Hailee Steinfeld), and a host of other Spider-People. It launched with $35.4 million on its way to $384.3 million worldwide.

“Across the Spider-Verse,” which exponentially expands the film’s universe-skipping worlds, cost $100 million to make, about half the cost of the average live-action comic-book movie. So at even the forecast $80 million that “Spider-Verse” had been expected to open, “Across the Spider-Verse” would have been a hit.

Instead, it has turned out to be a box-office sensation, and the second largest domestic opening of 2023, trailing only “The Super Mario Bros. Movie.” “Across the Spider-Verse,” directed by Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers, and Justin K. Thompson, even topped “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3,” which debuted with $118 million, for the best opening weekend of the summer so far.
