Avengers 4 looks set to bring time travel to the MCU, but has Nick Fury been seeing the future all along? A new theory suggests that Captain Marvel will dabble in time travel too in a bid to explain the S.H.I.E.L.D. Director’s sometimes preternatural degree of foreknowledge in the MCU. This theory (started by a user on Reddit) suggests that, in Captain Marvel, Nick Fury will somehow experience the future of the MCU....
The Shape of Water releases today on Blu-ray, DVD and 4K Ultra, and Screen Rant has some exclusive concept art from the Oscar-winning film directed by Guillermo del Toro. This exclusive concept art shows a distinct vision that made it to the screen in only a couple of images, featuring an image of a floating Elisa, a stoic Zelda (Octavia Spencer) and a lovely black and white image of Elisa and the Amphibian Man dancing, which might have been the most striking moment in the whole film....
Beetlejuice’s hellish waiting room could only come from the mind of Tim Burton, so here’s a guide to every ghost it contains. Beetlejuice is the movie that really solidified Tim Burton as one of the most distinctive filmmakers in Hollywood. The movie’s mixture of dark comedy and horror - combined with Burton’s unique visual style - have made it a cult classic. Beetlejuice was also a star-making role for young Winona Ryder, while star Michael Keaton and Burton would go on to make Batman....
Lest fans forget, Fox was the studio that got this whole superhero cycle started. Long before Civil War or Suicide Squad, the executives over at 20th Century saw the future; and it was speckled with leather suits and mutton-chopped Aussies. Fortunately, there was also dramatic talent involved, one that resulted in the first franchise of the millennium scoring big with fans and critics alike. For nearly a decade, the studio had carte blanche in creativity, scoring major successes (X2: X-Men United) and horrifying flops (Elektra) in equal measure....
Apple has once again delayed its official return to standard attendance at its corporate campuses in Cupertino. It was previously set at February 1st 2022, but now has been pushed back to an unspecified time as the spread of the Omicron Covid-19 variant takes hold around the world. This is now the fourth time that Apple has had to revise its schedule for bringing employees back to the office. Alongside the announcement about the indefinite delay on return to work, Bloomberg reports Apple is giving employees $1000 bonuses to spend on home office gear, and Apple will give a month heads-up when a new date is determined....
A little over a year ago, the Apple Music app made its debut on Samsung smart TVs. It appears the exclusivity period is up as today the Apple Music app is also rolling out to the LG smart TV App Store. This means Apple Music subscribers ($9.99/mo) can now stream their entire music library, playlists, radio stations and more directly from their (compatible) LG smart TV, without the need for an Apple TV or other add-on console....
The first reviews of Apple’s new Studio Display hit the web this morning, and while they were mostly positive, there was a clear issue highlighted by many reviews: the webcam quality. Reviewers at The Verge, The Wall Street Journal, and elsewhere had harsh words for the Studio Display’s built-in camera, but Apple is promising a software fix… Apple set high expectations for the Studio Display’s camera, which is a 12MP Ultra Wide sensor with support for Center Stage....
Alongside the new Apple Watch Series 7, the company has introduced a fresh collection of watch bands. There are new colors and designs all across the board, including new striped sport loop bands. The new bands continue to work with previous Apple Watch generations and old bands will work with the Series 7. Apple is offering the new bands in 41mm and 45mm sizes, as expected. All bands appear to have been updated except for the link bracelet which remains the same....
Apple remote working has been a bone of contention for many US workers after the company insisted that almost everyone should return to the office at least three days a week. But there is one US team who is making extensive use of remote working: US engineers managing production in China. Apple engineers are said to be using a combination of live-streaming video and augmented reality, with iPads the main device in use …...
Back in March, we warned of the risk of Apple’s disaster scenario: Chinese takeover of Taiwan. Yesterday, the heads of both US and UK security services gave an “unprecedented” warning that this is not only possible but that China has been taking steps to prepare for this. If it happened, it would lead to the almost total disruption to the vast bulk of Apple’s manufacturing resources … Status of Taiwan The status of Taiwan depends on who you ask....
After Apple announced the September event for the iPhone 13 next week, the company is now seeding tvOS 15 beta 9 and HomePod 15 beta 9 to developers. Today’s build for tvOS 15 and HomePod 15 beta 9 is the same 19J5346a. Apple isn’t revamping either of these systems as we expect the company to release the final version by the end of this month. As for now, only developers can download both of these operating systems....
The feeling of unionizing is spreading through Apple retails as employees from a third store launched a union drive this Tuesday. The employees at Maryland’s Towson Mall say they want a voice on COVID-19 safety, scheduling, pay, and other topics, according to a news story. The Washington Post reports that a group of Apple employees in Maryland has been “drumming up support for nearly a year in coordination with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, two employees and a union organizer said....
Apple Watch Parkinson’s monitoring was one of the things Apple demonstrated when it first announced ResearchKit, back in 2015. But a new developer partner has now taken this idea to a whole new level. Rather than just gather aggregated data to help researchers, a new app can gather personalized data to provide doctors with much more reliable data for individual treatment … What is Parkinson’s disease? Here’s how the American Parkinson Disease Association describes it:...
Apple Watch Series 8 and the second generation Apple Watch SE hit stores last Friday. However, when it comes to the Apple Watch Ultra, the launch is set for September 23. Still, a lucky buyer had his new Apple Watch Ultra delivered before its official launch. As shared on Reddit, the customer purchased the Apple Watch Ultra with the Orange Alpine Loop watchband on pre-order through AT&T. Usually, Apple and its partners hold deliveries until launch day....
Warning: MAJOR SPOILERS for Arrival ahead - Arrival presents many clues without revealing its hidden truth until the film’s conclusion. The success of the movie’s masterful storytelling is owed to director Denis Villeneuve and author Ted Chiang, whose sci-fi novella “Story of Your Life,” served as the film’s source material. Chiang’s narrative nominates a linguist, Louise Banks (Amy Adams), to decipher the otherworldly language of the Heptapods, an alien race who has descended across the earth....
UPDATE: Disney has confirmed these rumors are not true. Avengers 4 may be marketed in a very different way than other Marvel Studios movies, which could impact what’s revealed in trailers and posters. After a massively successful 2018 marking the 10th anniversary of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Marvel Studios will return in 2019 with three more big films. First will be Captain Marvel, the studio’s first female-fronted solo movie, then Spider-Man: Far From Home will wrap up 2019 by kicking off Phase 4....
There is still a way for Black Widow to appear in the MCU’s Avengers 5 without ruining Natasha Romanoff’s death in Avengers: Endgame. Scarlett Johansson’s time in the MCU is getting a new lease of life thanks to the Black Widow solo movie, but the codename could live on even longer than that. Natasha’s death in Avengers: Endgame allowed Hawkeye to retrieve the Soul Stone and capped her multi-film arc by erasing the “red in [her] ledger” she earned from her early years spent laboring under the belief she was an irredeemable person....
The first Battlefield V trailer from last week’s big reveal now has more than 320,000 “dislikes,” which is far more than how many “likes” it has, and many viewers are expressing their opinions in some harsh ways in the video’s comments section. It’s a similar situation to the dislike campaign against Call of Duty’s Infinite Warfare reveal two years earlier, but helps further show how underwhelming EA and developer DICE’s reveal event was....
Ant-Man & the Wasp may be updating Ghost for the MCU, but the villain will retain their classic superpowers from the comics. While the first Ant-Man followed the Marvel formula of giving the hero a dark doppelgänger, the sequel looks to be switching it up a bit. Ghost will fit within the sci-fi world of the Ant-Man franchise, but she’ll be unique in her power-set. She’s also much more mysterious than Yellowjacket was, as the marketing has hardly highlighted her and it’s been hinted her role may not be what many have assumed....
