Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie: No, This Film Is Not About Teen Spirit

Time-hopping musicians, a DeLorean-style RV, and a desperate quest for a discontinued drink fuel this proudly Canadian mockumentary. Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie thrives on balancing between nostalgia and improvisation to make it a must-see.

Once a certain word drops in any summary about where the time travel device is housed in
Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie, this film instantly reveals itself as the perfect tribute to an old pop sound. Part The Beatles, part loving nod to a certain Robert Zemeckis classic from decades past, there’s a lot to like.

If you don’t want to know too much, here’s the abridged take: This Canadian mockumentary, directed by Matt Johnson,
delivers plenty of fun-filled moments and wears its cinematic tribute proudly. The script was co-written by Jay McCarrol, and together they play fictionalized versions of themselves as two musicians trying to land a bar gig despite never having recorded anything together. It’s a concept fuelled by nostalgia and awkward, self-aware laughs.

Rather than riffing on The Blues Brothers, what’s presented here is Canadiana through and through. Shot around Toronto, Ontario, the locations are real, the energy is grounded, and the familiarity adds to the charm. It is best not to know more before the spoiler wall, so consider this your courteous pause point.

31 Years Later, Dynamite Comics’ Gargoyles Shows Greg Weisman Still Has More Stories To Tell

Even 32 years later, Disney’s Gargoyles still commands a loyal fanbase as Dynamite is commited to publish more tales and here’s a preview in what is on shelves and expected.

Dynamite Comics & Disney's Gargoyles Even 32 years after the release of Disney’s Gargoyles, the fandom remains strong. After Dynamite Comics‘ Gargoyles: Demona, I’m anxious for more. This series marked a turning point by spotlighting this complex anti-hero (review link) during the long years while the others slept. It leaves me wondering what’s next. What stories does creator Greg Weisman still have planned?

When the legacy of Gargoyles is rich with supporting characters who feel primed for spinoffs, just who is next following the Demona mini-series will be fun to debate over. My money is on Puck, as his time with the Mortals over the years still has not been explored. He did give viewers a tease, but to see it come to life proper is highly desired. That’s one side story I’d like to see published by Dynamite.

But as for what’s what’s currently out and expected this year, we do have the following:

Never Say Yes to Being Encased In An Iron Lung. You’ll Regret It.

A one-man descent into a planet-wide ocean of human blood turns Iron Lung into a tight, suffocating psychodrama that lets its best mysteries stay sealed. It’s slow in places, but the dread builds, and the third act lands like a vise.

Iron Lung Movie PosterIron Lung doesn’t require viewers to know the video game it has been adapted from. Everything you need to understand is either clearly explained or made horrifyingly tangible from the outset. The premise is simple: Simon (Mark Fischbach, who also wrote and directed) awakens to find himself sealed inside what is essentially a prison, one disguised as a space-age submarine.

This vessel is deployed into an oceanic world composed entirely of human blood. Sensors can barely penetrate the density of this viscous plasma. When tests confirm it is human in origin, the descent into terror truly begins. The only voices this lone pilot hears are the taunts echoing from this alien world and the transmissions from his prison handler. Ava (Caroline Rose Kaplan) serves as his sole human contact, promising a pardon for his crimes. He was implicated in the destruction of a space station, the lone captured conspirator. The absence of his fellow accomplices lingers as a narrative gap the film never fully addresses.

Astounding! Another Eden Returns as Another Eden Begins.

Another Eden Begins reimagines the mobile RPG as a nostalgic, story-driven remake shaped by Chrono Trigger’s Masato Kato. With multiple endings, curated companions, and time-spanning drama, this Summer 2026 release modernizes a classic without losing its melancholy heart.

Another Eden Begins Switch VersionAnother Eden isn’t just another mobile RPG. It’s a deliberate love letter to 90s-era Japanese role-playing games and it’s getting modernized for fans. Simply titled Another Eden Begins, what’s offered is a remake that cares more about mood, music, and melancholy than daily log-ins. What really gives it weight is Masato Kato, the writer behind Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross, shaping its narrative DNA. You can feel it in how time fractures, how memory lingers, and how the story trusts players to slow down.

And honestly, with Armed Fantasia still drifting somewhere in development limbo, this might be the closest thing to scratching that classic Chrono itch. Another Eden Begins is set for a Summer 2026 release, revisiting the First Arc of the original game, “The Cat Beyond Time and Space.” Redesigning the game that started it all helps newcomers get acquainted with the world. What’s different is mostly cosmetic, reworked for a 128-bit processing environment. This game will be available on PC (Steam), Switch, and Switch 2.

Explosive: Whether Infinity Roar Matters Depends Entirely on Marvel’s Kaiju Endgame

Marvel’s Godzilla Infinity Roar wants to reset its kaiju corner of the universe, but Issue #1 feels more like brand engineering than myth-making. Compared to IDW’s continuity-first approach, this version of Godzilla risks becoming an asset to leverage, not a force of nature to fear.

Upcoming Issue #2 Cover (Releasing March 11, 2026)

Marvel Comics has been busy building its own kaiju-sized lore since 2024, and with Godzilla at the forefront, Infinity Roar feels perfectly suited to act as a total universe reset. Whether it’s meant to be punny or serious depends entirely on how readers choose to accept it.

For readers late to the party, this isn’t the publisher’s first dance with the King of the Monsters. Throughout 2025, he systematically dismantled Earth’s mightiest in a series of one-shots, facing off against the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, and Thor. I noticed them, sure, but never felt the pull to read them. While those titles aren’t essential to understanding what’s happening here, that’s largely because a recap is provided in this opening issue.

Ever since DC launched its own spectacle, now nearly finished with its second series, it was only a matter of time before the competition countered with Godzilla Destroys the Marvel Universe (late 2025). That event ended with the logical, if uninspired, choice to eject the monster into deep space. But don’t let the setting fool you, this version of “Space Godzilla” is a far cry from the crystal-shouldered clone of the late Heisei era. Personally, I’d wager Marvel is eyeing the toy potential of Symbiote Godzilla.

An underdog wrestling tale steps into the spotlight as Little Lucha and The Big Deal begins streaming online. Blending 80s ring theatrics with heartfelt indie storytelling, the short celebrates creative struggle, partnership, and the fight to keep a dream alive.

Little Lucha and the Big Deal FacesFilmmakers Scarlet Moreno and Josh Stifter are stepping back into the ring as their short film, Little Lucha and the Big Deal, is finally available online. My review can be read here, and it’s a fun nostalgic romp to acknowledge the years when wrestling was more than an escape. It’s a way to recognize what goes on behind the ring. This short film that has lots of hear is now streaming exclusively on GeekTyrant.com (and Vimeo). We also have it linked to watch from the comfort of this post too.

Co-directed by and starring this duo, the short is a larger-than-life love letter to 80s era professional wrestling. The story follows aspiring superstar Little Lucha and his partner The Big Deal, two underdog performers chasing glory inside the ring while wrestling with the realities of life beyond the ropes. It’s a tale built on body slams, big dreams, and the emotional toll that comes with refusing to quit.

“Little Lucha and The Big Deal is one of the most heartfelt films I’ve been a part of creating,” said Moreno. “It’s got an ‘art mirrors life’ aspect for me as it’s a story of two people, nearly at the end of their ropes, doing everything in their power to make a dream come true. And what artist or creative doesn’t know that feeling?”
