Marvel Studios Legends: Variants

Who is Loki? Is he a raven-haired chap in a green suit with a penchant for deception and depravity? Is he instead a she with blonde hair who prefers to be called Sylvie? Or could Loki actually be an overly sensitive alligator with golden horns and a taste for cats? Truth be told, Loki is all of the above — thanks to the existence of numerous Variants. OK … so what exactly is a Variant?

This episode of Legends holds the answer to that critical question and more. A Variant is an individual that doesn’t belong to the so-called “sacred timeline,” and thus hails from a kind of alternate reality where there might exist a very different version of Loki, or someone called Mobius, or Renslayer, or Kang. Still having trouble making sense of it all? Fear not, Legends has got you covered!

Marvel Studios Legends: TVA

There is a “sacred timeline” — a timeline that must be protected at all costs. And let’s hope that you and I are a genuine part of it. For if not, we might one day be visited by agents of the Time Variance Authority, who will be obligated to “prune” us and banish us to a nightmarish world that resides in perpetual isolation at the absolute end of time.

Legends explores the mysterious origins of the TVA, and sifts the fact from the fiction. Are the Time-Keepers truly a trio of godlike beings responsible for the TVA’s creation? Or could they merely be artificial figureheads meant to obscure the identity of some flesh-and-blood mastermind possessing secrets both dark and ancient? This episode of Legends holds every answer.

Hit Man | Official Teaser | Netflix

May was an eventful month for Netflix. The streamer opened with a bang with A Man in Full and John Mulaney's live show Everybody's in L.A., debuted the latest season of Bridgerton in the middle of the month, and in the last week of the month, it launched a strange new show with Benedict Cumberbatch called Eric. (We won't mention Jerry Seinfeld's unfortunate "comedy," Unfrosted.) It was a typically diverse programming slate for Netflix, which still leads the industry in total number of subscribers.

If you have to watch one Disney+ movie this May, stream this one
A mermaid sits in a bathtub in Aquamarine.

Disney+ subscribers have almost certainly noticed by now that this month's selection of new movies is abysmal if you don't also have a Hulu subscription. While Disney CEO Bob Iger recently crowed to investors that Disney+ is now profitable, he neglected to mention that the streamer only achieved that status because the programming has been severely cut. Unless you really love documentaries about The Beatles, Queen, The Beach Boys, or Jim Henson, there are literally no other new movies on Disney+ in May beyond the offerings from Hulu.

Because of the Hulu integration, it's now even harder to find a movie on Disney+ (outside of the major Disney brands) that you can actually watch with the original subscription that you paid for. That's something Disney+ subscribers should be very upset about. But even with these misguided content decisions, if you have to watch one Disney+ movie this May, then the film to stream is a 2006 romantic comedy/fantasy called Aquamarine, which is based on the book by Alice Hoffman. It's not actually a Disney film, but fans of The Little Mermaid may recognize certain aspects of the plot. If you're looking for reasons to watch Aquamarine, we've got a few to share.
