The directors of Avengers: Infinity War, Anthony and Joe Russo, offer an update on the editing process of Avengers 4. Plus, they reveal the runtime of the fourth installment will be even longer than the third movie in this particular Marvel Cinematic Universe sub-franchise. Leading up to the release of Infinity War, there has been a great deal of speculation about its final runtime. Neither Marvel nor Disney has released the official Avengers: Infinity War runtime yet....

Angry Birds is certainly one of the most popular mobile games of all time, with different versions introduced since 2009. Rovio, the company behind the game, is now bringing the original Angry Birds game back to the App Store with a new engine and no in-app purchases. As announced by the company on Thursday, the game has been completely rebuilt with the Unity engine for a more sustainable experience across different devices and platforms....

A new duo of Apex Legends trailers have revealed the battle royale’s first big map change, and Respawn Entertainment’s renovations to the well-traveled Kings Canyon look fairly substantive. Though the game’s less-than-impressive inaugural season was inaptly titled Wild Frontier, Apex Legends Season 2 will transform the massive arena into something that seems truly primal and fresh. Officially revealed (but long before leaked via data mining) during the EA Play event at this month’s E3 2019, Apex Legends’ second season’s most highly anticipated addition is Wattson, a novel and much-needed support Legend....

Apple Pay web support has been made available to third-party browsers in iOS 16 betas. The change has been confirmed to apply to Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. Apple has likely made the quiet change in response to upcoming antitrust legislation that seeks to outlaw the practice of forcing browser developers to use WebKit … Background Apple has so far applied two restrictions which limit the functionality offered in third-party web browsers on iPhones and iPads....

While Apple Store employees at Grand Central Terminal in New York are taking the first steps to unionize, the Cupertino company has recently revamped its retail careers page by highlighting benefits, employees’ testimonials, and lots of info on what roles are available in its retail stores. This revamped web page was first noticed by Michael Steeber in his Tabletops newsletter. Here’s what he wrote about this new retail careers page:...

Apple on Tuesday released the 2022 edition of its traditional Apple Watch Pride bands. Although in the past the company discontinued the old Pride bands after launching a new one, this time Apple is still selling the 2021 Pride Braided Solo Loop band for Apple Watch. The Pride Braided Solo Loop is one of the watch bands that Apple introduced last year to celebrate Pride Month. It was the first time the company released a more expensive watch band with the Pride theme, as the previous Pride bands were based on the Sport and Sport Loop models....

With Earth Day coming later next week, Apple is once again promoting an interesting campaign. From now until April 22, the company will donate $1 to the World Wildlife Fund for every Apple Pay transaction made in Apple Stores, through the Apple Store app, or on its website. Apple explains the importance of World Wildlife Fund in an email sent to its customers: This Apple Pay campaign is only a small initiative among all the other efforts the company is making to become carbon neutral by 2030....

During its October special event, Apple finally unveiled the third-generation of its popular wireless earbuds. AirPods 3 features a new design based on AirPods Pro, but this time with a universal fit and Spatial Audio support. AirPods 3 looks quite similar to AirPods Pro, with a shorter stem, more in-ear design, and new battery case. However, unlike the AirPods Pro, the new entry-level AirPods have a universal fit instead of the adjustable silicone tips....

Apple has yet to launch its AppleTV+ streaming service, but the tech giant is already busy marketing one of its first shows, For All Mankind, with a new video tied to the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11 moon landing. This summer has seen the historic event remembered with a number of documentary films, both in theaters and on television. In addition to the IMAX-enhanced Apollo 11, National Geographic recently aired its feature documentary Apollo: Missions to the Moon, which not only recounted Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin touching down on the lunar surface, but it also covered the history of the Apollo program in total....

WARNING: Spoilers for Aquaman. Aquaman’s after-credits scene delivers on one of the movie’s recurring gags and even sets up a sequel. Directed by James Wan, the latest DC blockbuster tells an epic tale of political turmoil in kingdom of Atlantis. Despite its massive scale, the journey of Jason Momoa’s Arthur Curry to unite the seven underwater kingdoms is also very insular, containing almost no mention of any other DCEU movies, and that includes the tease that comes in the end credits....

Arrow star Stephen Amell has responded to speculation of whether he would be open to returning as the Green Arrow after his show wraps next season. In March, the CW renewed Arrow along with fellow Arrowverse shows The Flash, Supergirl, and Legends of Tomorrow. However, unlike the others, Arrow’s renewal was for a shortened final season. The eighth and final season will consist of 10 episodes and conclude with the highly anticipated Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover....

A number of users are experiencing overnight battery drain on MacBooks in macOS 12.2, and this turns out to be due to a Bluetooth bug that continually wakes the machine from sleep. The bug affects both Intel and M1 MacBook Air and MacBook Pro machines. We’ve previously suggested manually toggling Bluetooth off at the end of the day, but now there’s an app for that … Developer Jordi Bruin created the FluTooth app for his own use and found it solved the problem, so is now sharing it with others....

Stephen Lang’s Quaritch is set for a complicated time in the forthcoming series of Avatar sequels, according to the actor himself. James Cameron’s original 2009 Avatar movie famously went on to become one of the most commercially successful films of all time and kickstarted the recent trend of 3D technology in cinemas. The environmentalist tale of greedy businessmen looking to pillage the foreign moon of Pandora of its natural resources, with no regard for the indigenous Na’vi tribe, featured Lang in a main antagonist role....

The cliffhanger ending of Avengers: Infinity War could actually have seen the Mad Titan break time apart, with the Avengers striving to save all reality in Avengers 4. The Russo brothers have been quite up-front that Avengers 4 won’t simply be “Infinity War Part II.” While the two movies do have a strong narrative link, “there’s an independence in terms of what the experience is or where the story goes.” The films apparently relate to one another in same way Captain America: Civil War relates to Captain America: The Winter Soldier....

Batman exists in the Arrowverse, but where is he? Gotham City and its watchful protector, Batwoman, will be introduced in the Elseworlds crossover, which is also planned to lead into a Batwoman TV series. But it’s been confirmed that the Dark Knight definitely exists in the Arrowverse as well, although his whereabouts are a mystery. The Arrowverse was built around Green Arrow, with Oliver Queen essentially serving as an alternative to Bruce Wayne....

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson firmly cemented his status as one of the most bankable actors currently active in 2016, but he certainly isn’t resting on his laurels this year. If anything, The Rock is keeping as busy (if not busier) as ever in 2017, between reprising his Fast & Furious series role as Agent Hobbs in this April’s The Fate of the Furious; starring in a revival/soft reboot of the illustrated children’s book-turned family friendly adventure property, Jumanji; and leading the charge on a big screen reboot of the 1990s TV series brand, Baywatch....

Back in 2004, the California-based rock band Green Day released their seventh studio album, titled American Idiot. It was a monumental critical and commercial success, selling more than 6 million copies in the United States and earning the Best Rock Album award at the Grammys. American Idiot was something of a departure for the group, since it was a politically-charged rock opera (i.e. an album that tells a story) that detailed the many frustrations people were feeling at the time....

Unlike 2017, which has been a quite slow and unsuccessful year for animated movies, 2018 promises to be a busy time for studios and fans of animation. Disney, Pixar, Aardman, Sony, Warner Bros., Universal/Illumination, and even DC Comics – everyone’s got an animated film set for next year. With 2010’s Toy Story 3, 2013’s Frozen, and 2015’s Minions among the 20 highest-grossing films of all time at the worldwide box office, it’s no wonder that studios have chosen to dedicate more talent and resources to animated movies....
