There’s a simple solution here: James Bond in Hell. He has sex with the Devil’s wife, kills the Devil by kicking him out of a helicopter, etc.
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Are there kids out there who love Stranger Things like kids of the '70s love Star Wars? Between the sheer number of final season tie-ins and Paramount shelling out for the Duffer Bros, you would think so.

Forgot that Parks & Rec delivered a perfect finale, then jumped ahead three years for a final season 7. Mike Schur's Lost envy manifested well before The Good Place.

History matters in Zelda games. They imagine wars as multi-generational efforts where battles of the past set up the victories of the future. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment makes that explicit, even if its thin action doesn’t feel terribly warlike. My review. www.polygon.com/hyrule-warri...
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment puts the Zelda timeline to good use
The new Zelda spin-off understands that history has always mattered in Hyrule
