Nearly 1,000 years after the end of an uproarious era of bloody raids, possibility-defying expeditions in narrow boats, and history-setting battles against the organized and disciplined English, we’re still transfixed by the sheer audacity of the Vikings.
Today, the brutal and largely misunderstood warrior people of 8th- to 11th-century Scandinavia continue to raid our psyches — via epic battles waged on our televisions. Each new Vikings-themed series seems to raise our expectations for what’s possible in scope and detail in re-creating the most epic Vikings battles. In this regard (among many others), the new series by Jeb Stuart triumphs.
The eight-episode series contains four major battle scenes (among numerous other fights and skirmishes and displays of general Viking bad-assery). There’s the St. Brice’s Day Massacre, Kent on the road to London, the London Bridge and, finally, the invasion of Kattegat. “Yeah, those are ‘the big four,’ as we...

The Curse of Oak Island guys have begun asking the public for help analyzing and identifying various artifacts found on the island that the Lagina brothers believe may be vital to solving the mystery.
The Fellowship of the Dig announced in April that they would regularly post images and videos of artifacts they are having trouble explaining.
They hope there are treasure-hunting fans out there who may have done their own research and have theories about the origin of these mystery artifacts.
In a video posted last week, Rick Lagina thanked their fans for any help coming their way and had Oak Island researcher Judi Rudebusch introduce an artifact that has the guys perplexed.
The item, referred to as the copper alloy piece, was found by Jack Begley and Gary Drayton in 2022 during filming for Season 10 on Lot 8. The artifact appeared to be an ornate plate with a number of strange symbols on either side.

Curse of Oak Island Season 11 wasn’t as successful as Marty and Rick Lagina had hoped, so it ended on an emotional note, but is the crew already filming for Season 12? History Channel fans seem excited. Read on to find out what the tea dished.
Curse of Oak Island Season 11 Brought More Theories
In the last season, History Channel fans finally thought that something would come to light about the Knights Templars, the Vikings, and the treasure. However, problems came along that meant a rush to try and find something, anything, before winter set in.

Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece is filled with inspiration and references to a lot of mythical and mythological narratives that are spread across the world. From Alabasta to Fish-men Island, every new arc brings with it a reference to one of the old cultural tales from different communities. The same is going to happen with the Elbaf arc.

Curse of Oak Island Season 11 ended with no treasure and lots of pitfalls. History Channel fans wonder if there will be a Season 12. Despite a desperate push to get through the Money Pit, the Garden Shaft. and other promising locations, Rick Lagina and his team ended on a low note. However, he’s keen to get back into it again, claiming that he’s not going to give up.
Will Curse of Oak Island Season 12 Happen?
The History Channel probably won’t cancel the series, because viewership is so good, per Forbes. While treasure wasn’t found, millions of people tuned in for the amazing history lesson.

Ubisoft is well-known for spending significant time researching before creating a new installment for their award-winning historical action-adventure video game series, Assassin’s Creed. With the latest installment, Assassin’s Creed: Mirage, Ubisoft once again delivered historically accurate 9th-century Baghdad during the Islamic Golden Age. Not many people know that this game was initially going to be an expansion for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, but was later reworked into a standalone title.
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla
Just like Mirage, Ubisoft put historians and researchers to work to accurately portray Vikings in the years 872-878 Ad. At the time of its release, players were confused as to why Ubisoft chose this period as it is not widely known that Vikings also used stealth strategies. A common misconception is that Vikings relied on more direct combat, but there is proof that this community had sneaky approaches as well. The game’s senior writer,...

The Curse of Oak Island Season 11 is nearing its end. Read on to find out when you can watch the finale and what to expect. It’s been a disappointing season for some History Channel fans. However, if nothing else, it expanded a lot of knowledge about the Vikings and the Knights Templar.
Season 11 Of The Curse of Oak Island So Far
Expectations were high for Season 11 and Rick Laguna gave viewers the impression that it would be the best season yet. Unfortunately, many History Channel viewers grow tired of the show which hasn’t found much treasure. The show seems great at spawning more and more theories with little to show regarding riches. Some History Channel viewers start to believe that if there was treasure there, hunters took it away long ago.

Makoto Yukimura’s Vinland Saga has established itself as one of the greatest historical epic manga and anime series ever created. The mangaka has clevery infused various themes such as drama, action, and revenge. In addition to featuring complex themes, it takes Thorfinn, the series’ protagonist on a journey of avenging his father and redeeming his actions.

Yukimura’s work can be labeled as a fiercely intelligent work of fiction taking place in the Viking Age, which critically comments on human nature and character. However, the whole Vinland Saga that we know, and love would have been quite different as Makoto Yukimura had different ideas for the manga. The mangaka initially pitched that the protagonist of his mangaka would be a slave, but his editor told him to change the beginning which resulted in the greatest story to be ever told.

Curse of Oak Island fans start believing that the Viking involvement in transporting the Knights Templar and their treasure by ship holds some credibility. After the latest episodes, History Channel viewers become excited at the possibility that the theory is real. That is because the team visited a castle and museums in Europe.
Rick Lagina, Alex, & Others See Markings & Artifacts That Back Up The Theory
The team went across to Europe to see if they could confirm that what they found on the island was of Viking and Templar origin. Their visits included going to Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, and Iceland. Visiting Valkenburg Castle, they discovered some carvings made by Knights Templar prisoners. Incredibly, the goose paw and other scratchings in the walls matched some of those found on the island.

The Curse of Oak Island: Team discovers clues that a Viking ship may be the ship buried in the swamp
The Curse of Oak Island team has found evidence that the ship thought to be buried in the swamp is a Viking ship and that the Vikings helped the Templar Knights bring treasure to the island.
Time is running out for this season of Oak Island, and there’s already an end-of-semester feel about the last couple of episodes. However, Rick Lagina and the guys have gathered some great data on their field trip to Europe.
The guys have been attempting to retrace the path Templar Knights may have taken through Europe on their way to Oak Island. They have visited Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, and finally, Iceland.
Last night, the team visited a Viking Ship museum in Iceland and had the opportunity to stand on a recreated Viking ship. The ship’s builder informed the guys that this type of vessel was first built in the 11th century but...

The Curse of Oak Island team has found compelling new evidence that indicates whoever constructed the massive, secretive stone structure on Lot 5 also built the Money Pit.
If this evidence is confirmed, it will prove the theory that the Lot 5 structure was a staging post or command center for burying treasure at the Money Pit.
Tonight’s episode will be The Curse of Oak Island Season 11, Episode 24, and this show is named Hairy Situation. This episode will be the penultimate of the season.
The name Hairy Situation is likely a reference to the strand of hair found last week under one of the boulders of Nolan’s Cross. The hair was found sticking out of a piece of clay, leaving the guys scratching their heads about how it got there.
Viewers can expect the team to run tests on the hair; if it’s found to be human, that would be a helluva bombshell.

Director Zack Snyder is once again making headlines, and we all know what that means: gorgeous visuals, provocative world-building, and another divisive movie. "Rebel Moon: Part Two - The Scargiver" is now streaming on Netflix and serves as the latest installment in the filmmaker's new, original franchise. (You can check out my review for the sequel here.) Initially conceived as a "Star Wars" pitch before Snyder took his talents elsewhere, his operatic space saga still bursts with colorful imagery and reams of nerdy details and lore that would've filled any "The Art of Star Wars" book from cover to cover -- and, in fact, that's pretty much exactly what a new art and making-of book has done.

The Curse of Oak Island guys discovered symbols in Europe that connected the medieval Templar Knights to the Vikings. They also found ancient runestones, which appear to be linked to the Oak Island Money Pit.
Last night’s episode saw Rick Lagina, Alex Lagina, Peter Fornetti, and Doug Crowell continuing their European adventure.
They left Italy and the Netherlands behind to travel to the “land of the Norse,” otherwise known as Denmark, one of the Scandinavian countries where Vikings were prevalent.
The guys and historical investigators believed they were following in the footsteps of the Templar Knights, who may have traveled in the 13th century from Jerusalem up through Europe and rendezvoused with the Vikings who helped take them to North America.
The Knights were likely lugging ancient treasures taken from Solomon’s Temple, including the Ark of the Covenant and the Golden Menorah.

Also, on tonight’s show, Rick Lagina and a few of the guys will continue their European odyssey, uncovering links between the Templar Knights and the Vikings. And there’s an “astounding” find at Nolan’s Cross.
The borehole drill team, led by geologist Terry Matheson, finally begins exploratory drilling in the Baby Blob area this week.
This area is a few feet west of the Garden Shaft, where geoscientist Dr. Ian Spooner claims there’s a large amount of precious metal buried between 80 and 120 feet.
The guys had previously held off drilling here so the Dumas miners could safely excavate the Garden Shaft. But with that project on indefinite hiatus, Terry and his team can finally move in.

Ever since its debut on April 13, 2005, the Vinland Saga manga by Makoto Yukimura has consistently managed to remain among the top-tier manga series currently being published. The series is both a shōnen and a seinen work, as it effectively combines traditional elements from both groups. Yukimura has put a lot of effort into creating the manga, and while we’re dealing with a situation in which a Japanese man is writing about Vikings, we can only compliment him on the historical accuracy and the research he has put into crafting this amazing and highly popular world of his.
But, while the anime series boosted the popularity of the manga and made it known to a much wider audience, it seems – according to Yukimura himself – that the manga is going to end relatively soon. Don’t worry, we don’t have a date just yet, so it is going to be around for a while,...

The Curse of Oak Island has found three possible locations where the Ark of the Covenant may be buried at Nolan’s Cross, and they’ve already started digging.
Also, on this week’s Oak Island, another artifact further linked both the Vikings and Templar Knights to the island, and there was a major crisis at the Garden Shaft.
Researcher John Edwards was back in the War Room with three ‘X marks the spot’ locations. He is convinced that Nolan’s Cross is part of a larger monument made in the shape of an ancient Jewish and Christian symbol known as the Tree of Life.
John identified three spots along the main axis of Nolan’s Cross where he suspects the Ark of the Covenant may be buried. The locations were all on Tom Nolan’s land, but he quickly suggested that the guys start digging in the area.

We finally have our first look at The Acolyte, the new Star Wars series set to hit Disney+ this summer. Created by showrunner Leslye Headland (Russian Doll), the show is set before any of the Skywalker Saga movies and is a murder mystery, a first for this franchise. As you’ll see from the trailer and this breakdown, the series is a lot darker than any of the other shows that Disney has produced so far. It makes a bit of sense since this series happens to be all about the Sith…
Before we jump in and dissect The Acolyte‘s first trailer, give the video a watch below if you haven’t already.
Okay, now let’s have a look at what this trailer tells us about the story and its ensemble cast of characters…

What's the most shocking moment in children's cinema? The death of Bambi's mother in Disney's 1942 classic titled, well, "Bambi," has to be up there. It's bloodless, but more impactful because of that; the movie doesn't revel in the death, it's just a matter of life.
The animals in "Bambi" are less humanized than in later Disney pictures. They're drawn and live as real beasts; even what little dialogue there is in "Bambi" feels like a creative compromise. The incomprehensible force named Man snatching away Bambi's mother is the reality for deer dogged by hunters. Notice too how Bambi's mother dies in the winter; it's not just to make the scene extra moody, but because winter is the season of death. The film then jumps ahead to spring and when it reintroduces Bambi, he's grown into a young stag; his childhood ended that snowy day. It's all the unforgiving circle of life.

Curse of Oak Island hasn’t produced much treasure lately, but there were smiles, especially from Rick Lagina, who heard an expert’s opinion on the theory that Vikings worked with the Templars. Thanks to new structures found, it seemed to be exciting news from the History Channel.
Curse Of Oak Island – The Expert On Vikings And Templars
It was archaeoastronomer Professor Adriano Gaspani who surprised Rick Lagina when he made a serious pronouncement. After examining the monuments, he pointed out that they seemed to have been constructed at the same time as Nolan’s Cross. Although modern explorers think they know a lot, people from ancient times also knew enough to get around the world. So, Adriano Gaspani noted that experts built the monuments.

This week on The Curse of Oak Island, the guys dated two artifacts from the Garden Shaft as original depositor items, and a new expert explained how the Vikings may have aided the Templar Knights in bringing treasures to the island.
The Dumas miner guys pulled up a series of old-looking beams from 100 feet below ground at the bottom of the Garden Shaft. The team had assumed these were part of a tunnel; however, they did not find a tunnel-shaped structure.
The guys speculated that the tunnel’s walls and ceiling had been previously removed, leaving only the floor. It could be disappointing if they can’t find a defined tunnel; they obviously cannot follow it to the treasure.
Now for some good news. Blacksmith Carmen Legge and archaeo-metallurgist Emma Cullingan combined their brain power and technology to examine two small iron artifacts found with the wood beams at the bottom of the Garden Shaft.

The Curse of Oak Island team unearths a new ancient structure in the swamp, and they learn more about how the Vikings may have traveled to the island.
This week, the History Channel airs Season 11, Episode 18, of Oak Island, and the show is called May the Norse Be With You, an obvious clue that the Vikings/Norsemen will likely feature.
In the meantime, Billy Gerhardt has uncovered yet another human-made structure in the swamp, on this occasion, it’s a wooden wall. Geoscientist Ian Spooner is on hand to point out that the red clay found by the wall is the same material found under the stone roadway, which would “push it further back in time.”
Some theories on the roadway date it back 500 years and more, which could mean that this wall is incredibly old, too. We already have structures such as the paved area dating back to 1200. So,...

Well, it's official — Netflix's live-action remake of "Avatar: The Last Airbender" paid off (for the company at least). Avatar Aang (Gordon Cormier) will get to continue mastering the elements, now that "Avatar" has been renewed for seasons 2 and 3.
"Avatar" is just the latest anime that Netflix has brought to live-action. On this spectrum, "Avatar" falls below the well-received "One Piece" remake but ahead of the swiftly-canned live-action "Cowboy Bebop" (that even original series creator Shinichirō Watanabe couldn't finish).
Netflix hasn't stopped there. The streamer is letting "Stranger Things" creators the Duffer Brothers take a crack at "Death Note" and has had a live-action "Gundam" movie in development since 2021. Other studios are getting into anime properties as well: Lionsgate has recruited "Shang-Chi" director Destin Daniel Cretton to adapt "Naruto" into a live-action movie.

The most recent episode of The Curse of Oak Island saw a discovery that might connect two historical groups. The team has always believed the Vikings made their way to the island. They also feel that the Knights Templar hid treasure on the island. A brand-new discovery makes them think that the Vikings and Knights Templar might have worked together on Oak Island.
Here is what the team found and why they connected it to both the Knights Templar and Vikings.

There are three stone monuments on Oak Island and the team there thinks they point the way to the hidden treasure on the island. However, they have a new theory about these monuments.

The Curse of Oak Island team learned that three stone monuments on the island were built in the 13th century, and the likely builders were the Templar Knights.
In another twist on this theory, a chance find of an artifact left the team wondering if the Knights had help from the Vikings.
Last week, the Lagina brothers asked archaeoastronomer Professor Adriano Gaspani to follow up his previous work on Nolan’s Cross by examining two more stone monuments.
Gaspani examined the positioning of the stone cairns on Lot 15 and the stone triangle on the southern beach and confirmed they were built in alignment with the stars, moon, and sun.
The professor declared that he was 100 percent sure the stone cairns were built in 1250 Ad, and last year, he claimed Nolan’s Cross was constructed in 1200 Ad.
Gaspani said that the know-how to create these structures could only come from someone with a knowledge of navigation,...

But this time, Rick aims to end up in the Viking era, steal their weapons, and come back to life. Rick could have just time-traveled to that era, but well, would a Rick and Morty episode be a Rick and Morty episode if it didn’t make things more complicated than had it had to be?

Steven Spielberg's 1981 adventure film "Raiders of the Lost Ark" opens in "South America" in 1936, actually Peru. The Peruvian jungle sequences were shot in Hawaii, while the stone temples were constructed on a soundstage at Elstree Studios in England. The film's famed opening sequence sees Professor Henry "Indiana" Jones (Harrison Ford) trekking into said Peruvian temple -- a temple lousy with spiders and booby traps -- to retrieve a golden Idol left standing on a stone alter in a long-hidden antechamber. This near-mythic object was clearly well-protected by the long-dead tribes that put it there, as still-functioning traps fired spears or darts into any potential interlopers. Once Indy retrieves the idol, it is promptly stolen by a rival archaeologist named Belloq (Paul Freeman).
The idol doesn't play a role in "Raiders of the Lost Ark" beyond that opening sequence, and the film never stops to explain exactly what it is...

Exclusive: Nadia Forde has joined the cast of Conflict, the Finnish political thriller series from Rebellion director Aku Louhimies and XYZ Films.
Forde, who starred in Once Upon a Time in London, will play Claire Belfort, a daughter of a high-profile American family who gets caught up in the conflict.
Louhimies, the Finnish multi-hyphenate, announced Conflict two years ago and the six-part series is now shooting in Helsinki. It will premiere next year in Finnish, Swedish and English.
The story follows an unknown military unit as it invades a peaceful seaside town in Finland. All residents are taken hostage, including Annika Berg, a Finnish army soldier.
In seconds, her military exercise turns into a real crisis, with true casualties. No one knows if this is an isolated incident or the first step towards a global conflict.
Other cast includes Peter Franzén (Vikings), Sara Soulié (The Man Who Died), and Pirkka-Pekka Petelius...
