The science fiction drama from director Denis Villenueve racked up plenty of great reviews and various accolades in the few weeks since opening in theaters.

Avatar 10 The Last Airbender Storylines That Were Never Resolvedthe

The Last Airbender proved that American serialized cartoons could be just as exciting and relevant as their anime counterparts. Although hopes for a movie franchise fell flat, the show still has a dedicated fan-following and a follow-up series, The Legend of Korra, was also well-received. Like all complex TV shows, however, the original had a few dropped threads that were never picked up, and others that were teased in both the original and subsequent series but were simply forgotten....

Avengers Infinity War D23 Teaser Description

Marvel Studios won’t be releasing the trailer for Avengers: Infinity War they just debuted at D23 online anytime soon, but the description sounds epic. Infinity War will be the culmination of the Marvel Cinematic Universe ten years in the making. The film already has garnered insane levels of hype, and with Untitled Avengers still to follow, there’s no telling what exactly audiences will be in for. All that is known is Thanos (Josh Brolin) is finally going to do it himself to wipe the universe clean of its mighty protectors....

All Of The Angels From Lucifer Ranked

Part of what makes the show Lucifer so interesting is the diverse cast of characters. Not only is there a wide range of human personalities, but there are also angels, demons, and Nephilim as well. This range of species opens up new realms of possibility within the story. Much like humans, not all angels are created equal. Each has unique traits and tendencies that form individual personalities. Obtuse Amenadiel is, in many ways, his aloof and charming brother’s opposite....

Apple Qualcomm Patent Dispute Settled But Legal Battle Not Over

The lengthy and aggressive Apple/Qualcomm patent dispute was eventually settled back in 2019, but the legal battle isn’t quite over yet. That’s because there was an ongoing Qualcomm appeal relating to one of the patents challenged by Apple, and that case has quietly rumbled on in the background … Background Apple bought modem chips from Qualcomm for its iPhones. These modems contained patented technology, and the chipmaker charged Apple both for the chips themselves and a separate license fee for use of the patented tech....

Apple To Keep Remote Work Until Early 2022

Back in July, Apple had internally decided to return to the office in October of this year, a decision that followed a first request for employees to return to in-person work in September. Now the company is once again delaying its plans to return to the office, and this time Apple does not expect to return to regular activities until early 2022. A new Bloomberg report claims that the company sent a new memo to its employees on Thursday confirming that the return to office has been pushed back to January 2022....

Apple Used Ndas Against Workers And Lied About It Says Report

A report claims that Apple used NDAs against workers, and then lied about it to both investors and the Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC). Apple claims that it does not use non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), also known as “concealment clauses,” when workers report concerns about unlawful acts by the company. However, there are multiple reports that it does, in fact, do so … Background Apple employees have been working together to identify alleged discrimination and harassment in Apple’s employment practices under the “Apple Too” banner....

Application Memory Error Affecting Many Apps Intel And M1

We reported yesterday on a Mac application memory error that I first saw with the Mail app on my new M1 Max 16-inch MacBook Pro. Searching Twitter revealed other apps were also exhibiting the same behavior, which appeared to be mostly Apple’s own apps. However, it’s now clear from the growing number of reports that a very wide range of apps are affected, and that it happens on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs …...

Aquaman S Jason Momoa Not At All Offended By Body Shaming Trolls

Aquaman’s Jason Momoa isn’t at all offended by body shaming trolls. The DCEU star has been the subject of so much exposure over the past few years that it’s easy to forget how relatively new of a face in Hollywood he is. That being said, Momoa’s physique has been a major point of focus since he arrived on the scene, especially after roles in HBO’s Game of Thrones and his somewhat recent appointment as Aquaman....

Avengers Endgame Didn T Make 3 Billion Is It A Box Office Failure

Avengers: Endgame may not have broken every box office record in the book, but it still is one of the greatest successes of all-time. A decade ago, some had doubts that the Marvel Cinematic Universe could work, bringing together arguably B-list characters under one umbrella and building up to unprecedented crossover events like The Avengers. But 22 films later, the MCU is unquestioningly this generation’s defining film franchise. None of its installments have lost money at the box office (something not even the mighty Star Wars can say anymore) and it can transform obscure superheroes into household names....

Avengers: Infinity War is destroying every advanced ticket sales record in its wake, including a unique one for AMC Theaters. Directed by Captain America directing duo Anthony and Joe Russo, and based on a script from longtime Marvel scribes Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, Avengers 3 marks the beginning of the end of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s first core saga, which has grown exponentially since Robert Downey Jr. took his first flight as Iron Man a decade ago....

Avengers 3 Made A New Infinity Gauntlet Plot Hole

Avengers: Infinity War retconned the origin of the Infinity Gauntlet - and in so doing introduced a whole new continuity error into the MCU. Marvel has a reputation for playing the long game; most viewers assume that visionary Kevin Feige has plotted out the future of the MCU years in advance. In reality, while Marvel Studios do usually have a sense of the general direction things are going on, they frequently course-correct based on their directors’ latest ideas....

Batman V Superman 10 Easter Eggs That We Ll Never See Paid Off

Back in 2016, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice took a head-first dive into a deeply interconnected MCU-style universe for DC Comics’ roster of characters. However, when it was slated by critics and audiences alike, and standalone movies like Wonder Woman and Aquaman found tremendous success, Warner Bros. decided to soften the connective tissue in the DC Extended Universe. While this has led to some decent movies, it has also meant that a lot of the earlier set-up that DC fans sat through will now never get paid off....

Beauty And The Beast High Res Images Dan Stevens On Playing Beast

We’ve finally gotten our first good look at Disney’s new live-action Beauty and the Beast, with a slew of images having been released for us to enjoy. It’s fair to say that visually, at least, Emma Watson has filled the role of Belle perfectly, looking radiant in her traditional yellow gown.

As well as a look at Belle, the photos, and in particular the EW magazine cover, gave us our first look at Dan Steven’s Beast....

Android Owners Less Likely To Switch To An Iphone This Year

A survey of Android owners suggests they are less likely to switch to an iPhone this year than they were at the same time last year. The lack of a fingerprint reader and the CSAM scanning controversy appear to be the two biggest factors in explaining the fall in interest … SellCell carried out the survey of 5,000 US Android smartphone owners. The greater convenience of Touch ID over Face ID when wearing a mask was likely the biggest reason for the fall in the number of potential Android switchers in my view, but SellCell believes the CSAM confusion and controversy may have been a bigger factor....

Ant Man The Wasp Inspired By 1980S Movies

Ant-Man & The Wasp director Peyton Reed says 1980s crime/comedies After Hours and Midnight Run inspired the film’s ticking clock story. The Ant-Man sequel find its heroes in a race against time, and not just because it takes place in the lead-up to Avengers: Infinity War. For starters, Scott Lang is under house arrest after the Berlin “incident” from Captain America: Civil War. Meanwhile, Hope van Dyne and Hank Pym are on a mission to rescue the original Wasp, Janet van Dyne, from the Quantum Realm at last....

At one point, Goliath was set to appear via a flashback scene in Ant-Man & The Wasp. Laurence Fishburne played the character Bill Foster, whose alter-ego is Goliath in the comics. Fishburne’s portrayal in the film was of a much older Foster, who had hung up the superhero mantle years before the movie began. There was a quick name-drop in the film, but Foster was never shown in the Goliath costume....
