It’s believed at least a third of all games in the store could be removed. The law requires developers to obtain a license in order to publish an app in China. Although Apple has asked for the license number when apps are submitted for review, it has been turning a blind eye to loopholes used by major publishers and indies alike …...

New fan art shows what could have been if Chris Hemsworth was cast in Aquaman and Jason Momoa in Thor. Both Disney and Warner Bros. have turned an incredible profit by adapting several key characters from the pages of comic books. So far, Marvel has ended up being a bit more successful with their film adaptations, but DC currently has more release dates secured than Marvel does. Despite both companies varying success with adapting certain characters, most of the casting decisions have been widely accepted by fans....

Being a god isn’t easy. Fighting evil forces to save the innocent and protect the good requires mental toughness and obviously plenty of physical strength. Though the stories are fictional, the action is more or less real. Actors playing characters with inhuman strength must put in the extra work to make their fight scenes believable and allow audiences to reason that of course they are saving the world. One of the most gawked at actors who has taken on this responsibility is Chris Hemsworth, who plays Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the upcoming Thor: Ragnarok....

Christopher Nolan’s mysterious event film casts BlacKkKlansman star John David Washington. Earlier this year, Warner Bros. slated the director’s next project for July 2020, but the general public has been kept in the dark about it ever since. Plot details are virtually nonexistent, with rumors about it potentially being a romantic thriller that mixes North by Northwest with Inception seemingly debunked. Still, Nolan’s involvement guarantees the movie will remain a point of interest amongst cinephiles as they patiently await official information....

Voice searching is all the rage on Android devices (and your Chrome desktop with this nifty extension) and at the same time we’re being promised new forms of software interactions stemming from the advancements in the natural language processing science.

It is a sad state of affairs as developer Boss Key Productions shuts its doors for good, and in its wake, studio head Cliff Bleszinski is showcasing some artwork of what could’ve been. Boss Key had a run of bad luck thanks to tumbling interest in the likes of LawBreakers and a lackluster debut of their rushed battle royale game Radical Heights. Considering that Bleszinski was a veteran designer who had worked on the likes of Gears of War, there was plenty of potential knocking around Boss Key alongside a plethora of ideas....

Not to be confused with the Orion remake headed to theaters, Don Mancini’s Child’s Play TV show is set to premiere on Syfy sometime in 2020. Child’s Play is one of those franchises that, at least on paper, should never have lasted as long as it has. As has been made fun of in countless jokes over the years, a killer doll should really be a villain that’s quite easy to defeat, possibly laughably so....

Beyond the fact that one is a children’s novel and the other is a children’s musical, what is the difference between Ian Fleming’s classic tale and Ken Hughes film version of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? Written by the author most known for conceiving and penning the adventures of 007 agent James Bond, the three volumes of Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang: The Magical Car first hit London shelves on October 22, 1964. The books, which boasted a wild imagination, were written for Fleming’s son Caspar and, believe it or not, were actually inspired by a series of aero-engined racing cars designed by Count Louis Zborowski in the early 1920s....

The Apple TV+ streaming service continues to add to its ever-growing catalog of original series with Defending Jacob, an upcoming “character-driven thriller” that stars Chris Evans and is set for an April release.

The Philips FWP3200D 300W Mini Hi-Fi System, often simply referred to as the “Party Machine”, is essentially a set of rotatable iPhone docks (made to look like turntables) atop a 300W speaker system that includes two speakers boxes and packs a 2-inch tweeter and a 5.25-inch woofer. The turntables do little more than allow you to rotate the docked iPhones to either side of the system, providing a traditional DJ setup from behind the speakers or a more casual setup when docked in front....
