For the first time in five years, there’s a Star Wars movie in theaters. It’s not a new one, though. This year, Disney and Lucasfilm used May the 4th to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, the first Star Wars prequel. (Yes, The Phantom Menace is older today than the first Star Wars was when The Phantom Menace opened in theaters. 1999 itself is now a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.) To call The Phantom Menace’s legacy complicated is an understatement. It arrived in theaters with more hype and anticipation that maybe any other movie in history. I...

Mrs. Doubtfirecame out 31 years old; long enough ago to be considered a full-fledged family comedy classic. And also long enough for the actors who played the central kids in the film to be all grown up and really make us take stock of our own mortality seeing them reunited in 2024. Those actors are, of course Mara Wilson, Matthew Lawrence, and Lisa Jakub, who played the Hillard kids in the film. After their parents Daniel (Robin Williams) and Miranda (Sally Field) separate, the kids get a new nanny: Mrs. Doubtfire — who is secretly Daniel in elaborate prosthetic makeup. At the time Mrs. Doubt...

The title of this week’s episode ofX-Men ’97 — “Tolerance is Extinction – Part 1” — actually merges the titles of multiple X-Men storylines. Bastion himself appeared in a ’90s comic story called “Operation: Zero Tolerance.” And several years before that there was also “X-Tinction Agenda.” That’s just one of the many Easter eggs, little details, and hidden references you might have missed in the latest episode of X-Men ’97. For all of them, check out our video below. We’ll look back at the episodes of X-Men: The Animated Series that introduced Nimrod, and how Bishop, Wolverine, and Storm all pl...

This week’s episode of X-Men ’97is titled “Bright Eyes,” a phrase that comes straight out of X-Men: The Animated Series. That was what Rogue called Cable during his appearance on the old show.

Obviously X-Men ’97is a continuation of X-Men: The Animated Series from the 1990s, which existed more than a decade before the actual start of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2008’s Iron Man. It clearly takes place in its own animated X-Men universe. But the longer this season of X-Men ’97 goes on, the more it seems like this show is getting closer and closer to connecting to the main MCU. In our latest ScreenCrush video, we discuss how this show could fit into the bigger MCU, and how it could play a key role in bringing the X-Men into Marvel’s Multiverse Saga.
