After “Avengers: Infinity War,” it made sense for Marvel to go smaller, but nobody expected them to go this small.

After starting off strong, many series stumble in their sophomore efforts by either trying to do too much or struggling to find a story. Marvel and Netflix’s second season of “Luke Cage” has no such problem. In fact, showrunner Cheo Hodari Coker gives this season a different feel altogether, downplaying superheroics in favor of a crime drama.

When there isn’t enough material in books and comics left to adapt, where does Hollywood turn? Web series, apparently.

Fourteen years after writer-director Brad Bird’s smash animated hit “The Incredibles” hit theaters, audiences are finally getting a sequel. Unlike the underwhelming “Finding Dory,” however, this is a Pixar follow-up that matches and, in some ways, surpasses the original.
