Each week, there seems to be something related to The Batman, Avengers: Infinity War or other superhero-related properties dominating the news cycle. We're mixing things up a bit this week by showcasing a few topics about heroes who don't wear capes - Ninjago, Highlander and Castlevania. Of course, news about Matt Reeves' selection to direct The Batman is on here as well.

We’ve picked a few highlights from the last seven days to help spurn conversation but feel free to discuss any topic (within reason) that catches your fancy. As with any new project, we’ll be updating and modifying the SR Forum post as we find new and interesting ways to present the information and discussion. Give us your thoughts and suggestions in the comments section. As usual, talk about whatever you like as long as it’s related to movies, TV or Screen Rant itself.
