Black Mirror creator Charlie Brooker reveals in his new book that the show originally planned for the episode “San Junipero” to be more like Westworld. The hit HBO series obviously made Brooker go in a different direction, and perhaps he’s thankful for that. “San Junipero” turned out to be one of the most well-received episodes of the series, and the show’s first Emmy-winning entry. “San Junipero” received near-universal acclaim from both fans and critics for its uncommonly uplifting tone, which was a refreshing departure for a series known for its many bleak scenarios regarding the future and the impact of technology....

Black Panther earned twelve 2018 Critics’ Choice Award nominations, the second-most of any film. Ryan Coogler’s entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe was widely acclaimed upon its release back in February, breaking box office records and seizing control of the zeitgeist. Many were impressed with its heady and relevant themes, which helped Black Panther transcend its traditional genre trappings and deliver a story rich with substance. As a result, a narrative building all through the year is whether or not Black Panther can break new ground and earn a Best Picture nomination at the Oscars....

Concept art for Black Widow’s early character design in Avengers: Infinity War is so much better than what she ended up with in the movie. Natasha Romanoff (Scarlett Johansson) has regularly changed her wardrobe and hairdo one movie after the next, from Iron Man 2 to Captain America: Civil War, and her most notable update was changing her hair from red to platinum blonde for Infinity War. In Avengers: Infinity War, Black Widow’s updated look divided fans - especially on account of her new hair color....

Photos taken on the set of the solo Black Widow movie may indicate Florence Pugh’s mysterious role in the film is as Yelena Belova. It was previously reported in early 2019 that Pugh was cast in Black Widow in a significant role, news that was later confirmed. However, Marvel remains tight-lipped about the character she will portray. Until recently, the current Black Widow was Natasha Romanova, as played by Scarlett Johansson....

The photos on Vietnamese site Tinh Te show the BlackBerry L, a device that’s been leaked on the web a few times before, and that RIM is expected to show in a press event on January 30, 2013. This time the photos show quite a few details of the new smartphone, which seems to look and run very well in the hands-on video that comes in the same article. The smartphone looks slick and the front side reminds me a little of Microsoft’s discontinued Zune HD line of media players....

What Is It? At first, I couldn’t figure out the game. It had no instructions, no settings. Just a colored circle and a picture of a finger. At that point, I lost interest. For the sake of writing the article, I found the official site and guide. This game reminds me of a cross between Fruit Ninja and Snake. You swipe with your finger to create a line to go through a series of colored dots....

If you are someone who is looking to fix your device’s common issues like boot loop, remove pattern lock, bypass FRP lock, repair IMEI, or extracting DA (download agent) file, then this guide is for you.

Boingo Wireless has updated its iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch “WiFi Finder” application with the ability to sign up for WiFi hotspot subscriptions with iTunes credentials. Boingo has over 600,000 WiFi hotspots worldwide, and I typically see Boingo hotspots at airports across the country. Being able to sign up via an iTunes-based subcription will make using a Boingo hotspot easier than ever, so even though Boingo is seemingly giving up a 30% cut to Apple for these new subscriptions, their user base will probably grow due to the easier sign up process....

WARNING: Spoilers for Better Call Saul season 4’s premiere. Better Call Saul season 4’s premiere, “Smoke”, puts several of its main characters on a collision course with destiny, but none more so than Nacho Varga. Jimmy McGill is becoming more and more callous following the death of his brother Chuck, while Mike Ehrmantraut has now gotten properly in with Madrigal Electromotive, a front for Gus Fring’s drug business. But the biggest impact may be on Nacho, whose survival is now in doubt....

Birds of Prey (And The Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)‘s title character seemingly has her eye on a Bat-shaped rebound after finally ditching the Joker. Margot Robbie made her debut as Harley Quinn in 2016’s Suicide Squad, and her character was widely considered the strongest aspect of the entire movie by some distance. Capitalizing on that popularity, 2020 marks Harley’s return alongside some of Gotham’s finest female fighters in Birds of Prey....

Before Black Mirror had us hooked with its sci-fi vignettes of dystopian future, there was Rod Serling’s groundbreaking Twilight Zone. While Black Mirror delves into the intersection of technology and the individual, Twilight Zone examines man’s free will and the powerful—or spiritual—societal forces that seek to stamp it out. In case you crave a hybrid binge—or need a break from sifting through all the plot lines in Bandersnatch—I matched 10 Black Mirror episodes with 10 Twilight Zone episodes....

TV host and political comic Bill Maher has once again lashed out against comic book fans, and this time director Kevin Smith, on the latest Real Time. Back in November, the pop culture world was saddened by the death of Stan Lee, iconic creator (or co-creator) of countless enduring Marvel characters, and former editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics as a whole. Mass mourning then occurred on social media, at least from most people commenting....

WARNING: Major spoilers ahead for Avengers: Endgame. Avengers: Endgame killed Natasha Romanoff, leaving some big questions about the upcoming Black Widow solo movie. Fans always knew that the fourth Avengers film, the one bringing the Infinity Saga to its conclusion, would mean a few major casualties among the heroic ensemble of the franchise. Everyone had been taking bets on who would live, who would die, and who would come back after the reversal of the finger-snap that reverberated across the universe....

BMW, one of Apple’s Siri Eyes-Free partners, has announced that Siri support is finally coming to the iDrive console on its 2014 model cars, along with a range of other enhancements. The car-maker is also adding support for Samsung’s Siri equivalent, S Voice. You’ll also be able to access music on your iPhone through the iDrive system via Bluetooth, rather than the wired connection required with earlier versions, and access the web while the vehicle is stationary … With BMW offering its own voice-control functions, things could get confusing, so you can choose whether you want to talk to the car or your phone by either a single-press or press-and-hold of the steering-wheel button....

Apple’s latest store upgrade brings the outdoors in like never before. June 29th marks the grand reopening of Apple Bondi, the seventh oldest Apple store in Australia and the sixth in the country to be modernized around a greater Today at Apple experience. As part of the upgrades, Apple has introduced a striking set of floor-to-ceiling green walls unlike any previously installed inside Apple Stores across the world. Apple Bondi closed temporarily in late March for upgrades that we expected to include a video wall, Forum seating for community sessions, and new fixtures throughout....

– iBook G4 – iMac G5 – iMac Intel – MacBook Pro (17-inch) – Mac mini – PowerBook G3 Pismo – PowerBook G4 Titanium (667 Mhz or higher) – PowerBook G4 Aluminum The $1000 pricetag is hefty for the average Joe, but if you are in the making-movie biz and need to do work on a laptop, this is almost a no-brainer. We are not sure we’d want to drop a G on Blu-Ray for an iBook but we can’t wait to see the 17 inch HD screen enabled playback version of the device!...

Over its six seasons, BoJack Horseman explored some profound areas of personal change, tragedy, and growth. Along the way, it also cast its characters into some crazy relationships, some of them just so crazy that they worked out. However, the series had such a diverse range of unforgettable characters that we didn’t get to see all the relationships we would have liked to see. Here are ten of those most desired relationships that never happened....
