The epic team-up has just been released on Digital HD, with a host of special features still to come on the Blu-ray release, and the audio commentary for the movie offers a wealth of behind-the-scenes details and clarifications. In the above still from the end of the movie, you can also get a clearer look at the aftermath of the snap....

The Avengers: Infinity War prequel comic may contain evidence that the Red Skull is still alive in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Probably the MCU’s greatest flaw is the fact the movies tend to churn through their villains quite quickly. It’s actually quite rare for a Marvel villain to survive; even their best films tend to kill the bad guys off in swift order. That’s led to a lot of frustration among fans who know that many of these villains could easily go on to become recurring threats....

Sylvester Stallone plays cops and robbers with Matthew Modine (Stranger Things) in the trailer for Lionsgate’s crime thriller, Backtrace.

Miller, Backtrace picks up as a bank robbery gone wrong leaves mastermind MacDonald (Modine) with amnesia and locked up in a psychiatric prison ward....

Walt Disney Studios is a long-proven juggernaut in the movie world, with the company bringing animated flicks as well as the Marvel and Star Wars cinematic universes to audiences. Lately, however, they’ve started a new trend; turning some of their most-loved classics into live-action adaptations so fans can see their favorite movies all over again, with an added twist. It all started with 2010’s Alice in Wonderland release, ahead of the hugely-successful Angelina Jolie-led film, Maleficent....

Artist Alex Ross has an idea of what Brandon Routh’s Superman should look like in the Arrowerse’s upcoming Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover. Though the Arrowverse has staged many crossovers over the years, Crisis on Infinite Earths was the first time one was announced so far in advance, leading many to speculate it would be the biggest one yet. It’s since been revealed that Crisis on Infinite Earths will air over five nights this December and January, featuring all five Arrowverse shows: Arrow, Supergirl, The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, and Batwoman....

American Horror Story established horror in the television landscape for good. Since Murder House, the team led by Ryan Murphy has been giving audiences the biggest scares, as well as some of the biggest twists, on television today. Each season is filled with shocking, disturbing, and satisfying reveals that much of the audience never suspects. Over its eight seasons, AHS continues to surprise through captivating performances and excellent writing. Before we visit Ryan Murphy’s vision of 1984 this fall, look back at some of the biggest reveals and twists in American Horror Story’s history....

Ryan Murphy is offering one last clue before the American Horror Story season 7 title reveal on Thursday. The anthology mastermind has been sharing hints about the show’s next chapter ever since he joined Instagram in May, posting a series of casting announcements, nightmarish potential monsters, haunting patriotic decor (no doubt in reference to the election theme), and even a tease for the return of Freak Show’s serial killer clown Twisty....

Apple has overhauled the Apple Music Replay experience for 2022. Although it still is a web browser only experience, the Replay section now features a dynamic stories-esque design of highlights based on your listening history. See yours at replay.music.apple.com.

However, inside the native Apple Music app, you can still only view a basic playlist of your most played songs....

After being accused of infringing Koss’s wireless headphone patents, Apple has agreed to settle a lawsuit over AirPods and Beats headphones, said the companies in a court filing Saturday before the scheduled Monday trial. Koss accused Apple of infringing patents in a 2020 lawsuit. At the time, the company claimed that it invented wireless headphones in general and true wireless in-ear ones in particular: The first of the five specific claims appears to be arguing that Apple infringed a Koss patent on the underlying technology behind any wireless headphones....

Apple’s smart speaker HomePod has been available on the market for some time now, but it has never been considered a success like iPhone, Apple Watch, or even AirPods. Still, rumors suggest that Apple has been working on new HomePod models. While having new HomePods would be great, I believe Apple should focus on improving the software on the current HomePods. Apple’s strategy with the HomePod is somewhat confusing. First, the company introduced an impressive smart speaker in terms of sound quality....

Warning: minor SPOILERS for Aquaman DC Comic fans have always known that Mera is more powerful than Aquaman when it comes to her control of water, but the movie makes the point as clear as possible. And it does it in a single scene, blowing two decades of ‘broken’ female superhero stereotypes… well, out of the water. For fans keeping track, it’s even fair to say that until Arthur Curry retrieves the Trident of King Atlan, the real ‘superhero’ of the Aquaman movie is Mera, and not Jason Momoa’s Justice League-er....

Jason Momoa’s Arthur and Amber Heard’s Mera search for clues in Atlantis in a new image from James Wan’s upcoming DC movie Aquaman. Fans recently got their first real look at the highly anticipated Aquaman movie when the first trailer (finally) saw the light of day at last month’s San Diego Comic-Con. Among the other important tidbits released about the movie from SDCC was Momoa’s revelation that Arthur Curry wears denim pants in the poster, not leather as was originally thought....

The CW’s superhero universe has grown in amazing ways since Oliver Queen returned to Star City in 2012 on Arrow. In The Flash, a man gained the ability to run so fast that he can travel through time. Another Kryptonian alien crash landed on Earth in Supergirl. While a bunch of misfit supporting characters went on to become Legends of Tomorrow. The development of this superhero universe has been an historic undertaking and the ambitious approach only looks to increase in the near future....

The Arrowverse has been building towards “Crisis on Infinite Earths” for over four years. Crossover events have become an annual tradition for The CW’s slate of DC superheroes, but it seems “Elseworlds” was effectively a prelude for what’s coming next. When the story came to a close in Tuesday night’s episode of Supergirl, The CW revealed that 2019 would be the year of the “Crisis on Infinite Earths.” The crossover events are always important, but this is the first time they’ve been announced a year in advance....

An adorable new BTS photo from the set of Avengers: Endgame features a smiling Robert Downey Jr. posing alongside his onscreen daughter Lexi Rabe. It’s been a little over six weeks since Marvel Studios’ latest blockbuster, the ending to the grand Infinity Saga, hit theaters.
