The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt celebrates its 10th anniversary this week, marking its evolution from a niche title to a significant influence in modern fantasy storytelling, partly due to the Netflix adaptation.

Minecraft was fine, except for one pesky little phrase

A family outing to the cinema featured the film A Minecraft Movie, which received negative reviews prior to its release. Despite this, the film appealed to the author's child, Sam, who wanted to see it "for the memes." The author had previously endured several children's films and was surprised that A Minecraft Movie exceeded expectations, performing better than titles like Snow White, Wish, Paddington in Peru, DC League of Super-Pets, and Moana 2. The film's cast did not include acclaimed actors Barry Keoghan and Paul Mescal, and it avoided the influence of Phoebe Waller-Bridge. The film had a runtime of 100 minutes, which was appreciated for being shorter than many contemporary films, and it successfully engaged both young and older viewers with its humor and adventure.
