Starfleet Academy is literally getting destroyed this week as the sets are torn down for good. Andy Weir is in the news (again), this time for a resurfaced interview where he explains his hatred of political pandering in media. Meanwhile, everyone was quietly shocked by Erin Moriarty's appearance on Season 5 of The Boys. And Fandango listed their 10 most anticipated films of 2026, and The Mandalorian isn't even mentioned!
