In what feels a little like an anthology series spliced together into a single film, Predator: Killer of Killers gives us three separate tales of humans each besting Predator attacks in different locales and time periods before uniting together in a Predator arena to fight it out and prove who the best, the killer of killers you might say, is.

“The Reality War” marks the end of the season, the end of The Rani (Anita Dobson), and the end of Ncuti Gatwa‘s run as The Doctor. After being saved by Anita (Steph de Whalley) who will play a pivotal role in bringing back the real memories of The Doctor’s allies at U.N.I.T., The Doctor turns his attention to stopping The Rani and her plans to release Omega () from his prison and use his DNA to recreate the Time Lords in her image. The Rani gets a bit more than she bargained for when the show goes a bit over-the-top offering us a CGI skeleton monster (certainly different than the character’s other appearances). Meanwhile, Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson) is given the crucial assignment of getting the baby which will be needed to permanently set the world right.

With the Asajj Ventress arc complete, the show turns its attention to a new character from The Clone Wars. “The Good Life” acts as a backstory for Cad Bane (A.J. LoCascio) who we meet as a child living on the streets with his best friend Niro (Eric Lopez). The pair are taken advantage of by the leader of a gang (who looks an awful lot like who Cad Bane will grow up to be) who entices them to help out on a heist starting one’s life in crime while the other is caught by authorities. Fans of Cad Bane looking for information on where the character started are likely going to enjoy this one the most, although it’s certainly still serviceable for those of us a bit perplexed by the choice of characters for this series.

After a goofy episode involving an intergalactic song contest which is only notable for revealing Mrs. Flood (Anita Dobson) to be The Rani and then introducing Archie Panjabi as her latest regeneration, The Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) and Belinda Chandra (Varada Sethu) awake back on Earth, although not the one they left. Playing into the revolving gods arc, The Rani has use a newborn god to made changes to the world that still leaves doubts and cracks to the real world underneath (which, apparently is the point). The Doctor’s fake life is shaken by a meeting with Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson) and an message from Rogue (Jonathan Groff) and begins to doubt the world around him (although it will take a full episode before we see The Doctor back to himself).

“This is my family. I found it, all on my own. It’s little, and broken, but still good.”
Disney’s latest live-action remake gives us a story of friendship and family that would make Dominic Toretto proud. With a few notable exceptions, most in the final act of the film, the new Lilo & Stitch follows the events of the original faithfully starting with the exiled Experiment 626 (Chris Sanders) crashlanding on Earth. The early sequences involving the United Galactic Federation are all CGI, but to limit the amount of effects needed on Earth, outside of the alien “dog” whom Lilo (Maia Kealoha) adopts, we get Dr. Jumba Jookiba (Zach Galifianakis) and Agent Wendy Pleakley (Billy Magnussen) holographically disguised as humans for the majority of the film.
