2026 summer games release schedule and movie mega-preview

A preview of the preview: Bond sneaking through the vents, Cloud crash-landing onto new consoles, Star Fox screaming back from deep space, pirates getting resynced, ninjas carving up the skyline, vampires brooding, and a soccer captain treating a bicycle kick like world-ending sorcery. Meanwhile, we’ll be opening forbidden doors to the Backrooms, resurrecting He-Man, sending Supergirl skyward, dropping Toy Story back into the emotional wood chipper, launching Spider-Man into a brand-new day, and letting Christopher Nolan turn The Odyssey into a summer colossus (or the ultimate discourse destroyer, depending on where you’re sitting). TV has dragons, mutants, Lanterns, benders, Vulcans, vampires, and doomed silo-dwellers. We didn’t even get into the books, the tabletop games, the comics, and the 800 YouTube videos we’re bound to watch instead of making time for the blockbusters.
