Latto Has Fans Livin’ For Her Pregnancy Glow

Latto was back on the scene again after previously breaking the internet with her pregnancy announcement in her new ‘Business & Personal’ music video. The raptress pulled up to the Atlanta Hawks game with her sister Brooklyn Nikole. During the game, Latto rubbed on her baby bump, which peaked out under her white crop top. Once videos of her maternity style hit timelines, fans flooded comment sections with heart eyes and fire emojis. In addition to her white tank, the 27-year-old femcee wore a long brown leather jacket, baggy jeans and a pair of strappy sandals.

Big Mama’s Baby News Shakes Up Social Media

After going MIA for a minute, Latto returned to social media with two BIG announcements. She dropped her new single, ‘Business & Personal’ along with the music video and confirmed she’s expecting her first child. Hours after her video dropped she gave fans a closer look at her growing baby bump in a sweet post she shared on Instagram and thanked her family and loved ones for holding her down while she prepares for motherhood.

After Latto & 21 Savage Gearing Up To Host A Baby Event?

Right now, Latto hasn’t confirmed who’s the father of her child, but folks online think it might be 21 Savage after catching a few clues in her ‘Business & Personal’ music video. In the visuals, a man with a tatted arm caresses her baby bump. Then folks peeped 21’s baby pics in a scrapbook she puts together in the video. As if that wasn’t enough, a video recently surfaced online that convinced folks that 21 Savage is definitely the daddy of Latto’s unborn baby. The footage, shared by Instagram account @babyjade, previews a package that features a stuffed animal baby cheetah alongside what looks like a note. On top of that, Latto and 21’s government names, Alyssa and Shéyaa, appear at the front of the set up. Peep the video below.

When done right, fantasy is one of the most entertaining genres, but it can be very tricky to pull off. While the genre boasts several undisputed masterpieces, many other fantasy films put in a valiant effort but ultimately fall short of realizing their full potential.

These movies are the focus of this list: they are almost perfect, yet limited by one or two flaws. Some boast breathtaking visuals but uneven storytelling, while others feature compelling concepts that could have been explored a little more fully. A few were simply in need of a bit more script polishing. From sword-and-sorcery epics to gothic fairy tales, the following ten movies represent fantasy at its most tantalizingly imperfect.

‘Dragonslayer’ (1981)

“None shall pass without tribute.” Set in a bleak medieval kingdom terrorized by a monstrous dragon, Dragonslayer follows young sorcerer’s apprentice Galen (Peter MacNicol), who must confront the beast Vermithrax Perjorative after his mentor is killed. The setup is classical fantasy stuff: craven villagers, corrupt officials, an untested hero, and a cruel monster looming over everything.

Vermithrax truly is formidable; he looks fantastic, thanks to inventive, practical effects. The creature’s movements, scale, and fiery presence create a sense of genuine danger that even many modern fantasy movies struggle to achieve. Indeed, the whole movie has a gritty, grounded tone that sets it apart from most ’80s flicks. Instead of a fairy tale, it gives us a bleak, mud-covered world where magic is fading, and survival often comes at a terrible cost. That said, some of the plot developments aren’t that original, and the pacing can feel uneven. Some of the supporting characters are also underdeveloped, which makes the emotional stakes less powerful than they could have been.

‘The Spiderwick Chronicles’ (2008)

“We have to stick together.” This movie brought Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black‘s wonderful Spiderwick books to the screen, though some of the magic is lost in translation. The story revolves around twins Jared and Simon (both played by Freddie Highmore) and their older sister Mallory (Sarah Bolger), who move into their great-aunt’s crumbling estate. There, they discover a hidden field guide revealing a secret world of faeries, goblins, and other magical creatures. Soon, they’re on a mission to protect the book from the malevolent ogre Mulgarath (Nick Nolte).

The creature design and visual effects are solid, and the storytelling is fittingly fast-paced and accessible for the young target audience. The movie retains a subtle dark edge, too, which is commendable, and Highmore’s performance does a lot of heavy lifting. However, the simplicity of the narrative ultimately limits its impact. The story is enjoyable but relatively straightforward, lacking the deeper mythological world-building that would have made it stand out.

‘The City of Lost Children’ (1995)

“I dream of dreams.” The City of Lost Children is a steampunk gem from quirky French directors Marc Caro and Jean-Pierre Jeunet (the latter also made Amélie). In a surreal port city perpetually cloaked in mist, a scientist known as Krank (Daniel Emilfort) kidnaps children to steal their dreams, hoping to stave off his rapid aging. A strongman named One (Ron Perlman) teams up with a clever orphan girl, Miette (Judith Vittet), to rescue his kidnapped brother, leading them through a labyrinth of bizarre characters and nightmarish inventions.

From here, the movie creatively mashes together elements of fantasy, sci-fi, and dark folklore, practically every frame showing off the directing duo’s vibrant imaginations. However, that visual brilliance sometimes overshadows its storytelling. While the atmosphere and world-building are unforgettable, the plot itself can feel somewhat thin and episodic, even confusing. In short, a lot here could have been fleshed out more.

‘Orlando’ (1992)

“Same person. No difference at all… just a different sex.” Another wondrously imaginative movie. Based on Virginia Woolf’s novel, Orlando stars Tilda Swinton as an androgynous noble who lives for centuries, mysteriously changing from male to female along the way. We follow the character through shifting historical eras, each period rendered with exquisite attention to detail. Swinton’s performance is simply mesmerizing the whole way through, holding the whole movie together.

Director Sally Potter uses this unique premise as a way to explore themes of identity, gender, and social expectations, particularly the way they change over time. Once again, however, Orlando is a case of a movie being visually sumptuous but occasionally light on story and themes. The tone is a little detached, as well, meaning that the emotions don’t always come through fully. All in all, Orlando feels like a series of poetic observations rather than a coherent narrative.

‘The Adventures of Baron Munchausen’ (1988)

“I am Baron Munchausen!” In this exuberant adventure story from Terry Gilliam, the legendary storyteller Baron Munchausen (John Neville) recounts (and seemingly relives) fantastical chapters from his life, involving trips to the moon, encounters with mythological beings, and daring escapes. A young girl (Sarah Polley) becomes his companion as reality and imagination blur. Along the way, the movie becomes a celebration of storytelling itself, firmly believing in the power of fiction to inspire wonder and even reshape reality itself.

There is a lot to love here: elaborate sets, endless spectacle, an abundance of surreal imagery, and charming performances from Neville and Polley, as well as Eric Idle, Jonathan Pryce, and Uma Thurman. It also maintains a cheerful and whimsical vibe the whole way through, one that can’t help but be infectious. But there are some weaknesses, too. The story is slow to get started, and the sprawling web of subplots and characters can be a little overwhelming.

‘Ladyhawke’ (1985)

“Always together, eternally apart.” Ladyhawke is a nice blend of sword-and-sorcery and romance, helmed by The Goonies‘ Richard Donner. Set in a mythic medieval France, Ladyhawke tells the story of Navarre (Rutger Hauer), a disgraced knight, and Isabeau (Michelle Pfeiffer), the woman he loves, who are cursed by a jealous bishop: by day she becomes a hawk, and by night he transforms into a wolf, preventing them from ever being human together. A witty thief named Philippe (Matthew Broderick) becomes entangled in their quest to break the spell.

While a lot works here, the main issue with Ladyhawke is the tone, which sometimes shifts uncomfortably between romance, dark drama, feel-good adventure, and comedy. Some of the dialogue is bland and wooden, too, and even some of the funny lines feel out of place. These shortcomings are not helped by the modern synthesizer score, a bafflingly anachronistic choice that does not help with the immersion.

‘Hellboy II: The Golden Army’ (2008)

“I am fireproof.” The Hellboy movies are perhaps Guillermo del Toro’s most straightforwardly crowd-pleasing projects, leaning into genre thrills rather than deep themes or emotion. However, that’s also exactly what makes them work: they’re fun and bold, anchored by more layered and likable characters than one typically finds in comic book adaptations. The sequel finds the title character (Ron Perlman) caught between the human world and a hidden realm of mythical creatures as Prince Nuada (Luke Goss) seeks to awaken the unstoppable Golden Army to reclaim the Earth.

Perlman is at his most charismatic here, nailing his dry one-liners and action sequences while also infusing the character with a subtle melancholy. Other characters are less well-handled, unfortunately. The antagonist, in particular, is a little underwhelming. Similarly, the narrative itself sometimes drifts into muddled or conventional comic-book territory. Certain sections run out of momentum and lack that signature del Toro spark.

‘Conan the Barbarian’ (1982)

“What is best in life?” Ranking among the most iconic fantasy movies of the ’80s, Conan the Barbarian features a breakout Arnold Schwarzenegger as a warrior whose parents are slaughtered by a cult leader, Thulsa Doom (James Earl Jones). Raised as a slave, Conan grows into a formidable fighter and embarks on a quest for vengeance, confronting sorcerers, bandits, and giant snakes along the way. This story laid a blueprint that countless sword-and-sorcery movies would attempt to replicate, though usually not with this much muscular energy.

Fundamentally, Conan the Barbarian is cartoonish but enjoyable, with many strengths alongside some glaring weaknesses. The acting is often a little flat, the aesthetic is rough around the edges, and the movie’s attempts at depth (even shoe-horning in some points on philosophy) can be heavy-handed. Some fans of the original books also disliked the film’s deviations from the source material. Nevertheless, the flick’s impact is undeniable.

‘Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince’ (2009)

Image via Warner Bros. Pictures

“Once again, I must ask too much of you, Harry.” Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is perhaps the most character-driven entry in the series, for better and for worse. As Voldemort’s (Ralph Fiennes) power grows, Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) returns to Hogwarts for what becomes one of the saga’s most introspective chapters. Guided by Dumbledore (Michael Gambon), he explores memories revealing the Dark Lord’s past. Meanwhile, Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton) faces a dangerous mission that tests his conscience.

The film is more moody and emotional, reflecting the characters’ increasing maturity. Unfortunately, many of these psychological character arcs are given insufficient space, in part due to the time constraints of a feature film but also frequently because the director chooses to prioritize humor or romantic storylines. Not to mention, the flashbacks exploring Voldemort’s early days are hugely truncated, undercutting a lot of the emotional power of the book.

‘Excalibur’ (1981)

Image via Warner Bros. Pictures

“I am Arthur, King of the Britons.” John Boorman’s sweeping retelling of the Arthurian legend traces the rise and fall of King Arthur (Nigel Terry), from the drawing of the sword to the tragic collapse of Camelot. The thrills on offer are traditional in the best way: knights pursue honor, love, and glory while magic shapes the fate of the realm. The aesthetic is defined by gleaming armor, misty forests, and a suitably epic Wagner soundtrack.

In other words, this movie is fantastically operatic and visually bold, especially for its time. The imagery is hypnotic, and the action scenes are well-staged. Now, for the criticisms. First of all, a lot of the dialogue is weak, with characters trading plenty of awkward, bland lines. They lack the dramatic intensity that defines the rest of the movie. In addition, Excalibur is occasionally a little self-serious, though some fans of darker, more ambitious fantasy will also appreciate that.

Jourdin Pauline is continuing to speak out about her claim that she was sexually assaulted by streamer Tylil James in December 2025. Now, she says she’s ready to take a lie detector test on a livestream to prove she’s telling the truth. Tylil has previously denied the allegations, saying their interaction was consensual.

Jourdin Pauline Says She’ll Take A Lie Detector Test To Clear Her Name

On Saturday, March 21, LiveBitez shared a clip of influencer Jourdin Pauline speaking on about the alleged incident. In the video, Pauline called out people she feels are defending her accuser. She then explained that she plans to take a lie detector test on stream, claiming it will involve legitimate law enforcement, and said she believes she will be “vindicated” in 2026.

Pauline also expressed frustration with online reactions, saying she is not okay with what she described as offenders being “glorified.” She added that it has been difficult to see people attack her character while others move as if nothing happened. Although she didn’t directly name Tylil, she appeared to reference him multiple times, including remarks about his hairline and a viral moment tied to his recent hairstyle. At one point, she said, “y’all defending a n**** with no hair that’s a rapist,” and added that if a man’s hairline is receding, that should be enough evidence that he “ain’t sh*.” Her comments come after she previously accused Tylil of sexually assaulting her following the 2025 Streamer Awards. Tylil denied those claims at the time.

Tylil Goes Viral For “Boneless Braids” And Rekindling With Girlfriend

Before Pauline’s latest comments, Tylil James has been trending online. The 25-year-old Bronx streamer first sparked conversation after sharing a photo with his girlfriend, Kae Kritch, surprising fans who believed the relationship had ended following earlier controversy involving Pauline.

Additionally, Tylil went viral last week for his hairstyle. In a video on stream, he showed off his braids while talking about how his hair struggles to grow. His cameraman joked that he had “boneless braids,” a line that later circulated online and was referenced by Pauline in her recent livestream.

Bruce Willis’ wife, Emma Heming Willis, is celebrating the pair’s 17th year of marriage amid the actor’s frontotemporal dementia diagnosis.

“I was made to love him,” Emma, 47, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, March 21, alongside a throwback photo of the happy couple on a beach. “17 years,” she added, with a ring and a white heart emoji.

The accompanying photo was snapped during the pair’s 2009 wedding in Turks and Caicos, showing Bruce, now 71, holding Emma in both arms as they smile at each other.

Emma and Bruce met in 2007, tying the knot two years later. The pair share two children together: daughter Mabel Ray, born in 2012, and daughter Evelyn Penn, born in 2014.

Bruce is also the proud dad to three other daughters — Rumer Willis, Scout Willis and Tallulah Willis — whom he shares with his ex-wife Demi Moore.

The Die Hard star was diagnosed with aphasia in 2022, after which he retired from acting. His initial diagnosis has since progressed to frontotemporal dementia (FTD), which the Mayo Clinic describes as an “umbrella term” for a number of brain diseases that typically affect the frontal and temporal lobes.

Since his diagnosis, Emma has been candid about what life is like as both a wife, mother and caregiver.

“It was one of the hardest decisions that I’ve had to make so far,” Emma said in a 2025 interview with Diane Sawyer, revealing that she had decided to move Bruce to a second home and hire full-time care. “But I knew, first and foremost, Bruce would want that for our daughters. You know, he would want them to be in a home that was more tailored to their needs, not his needs.”

Emma later opened up about the “benefit to getting help” in her memoir The Unexpected Journey: Finding Strength, Hope, and Yourself on the Caregiving Path.

Emma Heming Willis and Bruce Willis’ relationship is growing even stronger despite his battle with dementia. “Today marks our 15th wedding anniversary! And today, I can make a choice,” Emma, 45, wrote via Instagram on Thursday, March 21 alongside a selfie of Bruce, 69, kissing his wife on the cheek. “I can wallow in sorrow […]

“One benefit to getting help, whether you bring it into your home or have your person move to a community-based setting, is the ability to get back to your original role in your person’s life,” she wrote. “The other day Bruce and I sat on the patio of our second home, watching the girls swim and giggle in the pool. As we held hands, Bruce hummed along to the Frank Sinatra song that was playing in the background. For a moment, it was a teeny bit of normalcy that we really needed.”

Emma shared that she takes their daughters to visit Willis regularly, where they enjoy meals together, play with their toys and simply spend time with their famous father.

Few action brands have been as successful this century as the John Wick franchise. Starring Keanu Reeves as the titular retired hitman who is lured back into the criminal world, the franchise began with the 2014 first installment, which earned a modest $86 million at the global box office. However, it received such a strong audience reaction that a sequel was announced in May 2015. With the sequel doubling the box office haul, it was clear an exciting franchise was on our hands, with John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum and Chapter 4 cementing the action IP’s place in cinematic history with incredible critics’ response and huge box office hauls.

In 2025, the choice to move the franchise into a new era manifested in the form of the first feature film spin-off, From the World of John Wick: Ballerina. Reeves is now in his sixties, and being a fast-paced action star is not going to get any easier. So, instead of risking the end of the franchise coming before its time, the ever-brilliant Ana de Armas was chosen to take over the mantle as Eve Macarro, a ballerina-assassin. Taking place between the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 and Chapter 4, Ballerina follows De Armas’ Macarra, “who is beginning her training in the assassin traditions of the Ruska Roma.”

Sadly, Ballerina was unable to capitalize on the previous theatrical success of the franchise, becoming one of 2025’s more disappointing box office flops. Against a reported budget of $90 million, Ballerina grossed only $137.2 million worldwide and put a dent in de Armas’ potential to take over the franchise full-time. However, the film has redeemed itself on streaming ever since, officially becoming one of the ten most-streamed movies on Starz in the U.S., at the time of writing.
