The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s inaugural hero Robert Downey Jr. strikes his signature Iron Man pose once again - this time for a charity. Kicking off the popular superhero franchise in 2008 via Jon Favreau’s Iron Man, the actor’s casting was a big risk back then. Boggled down by a long, troubled history with substance abuse, many were skeptical about putting a budding film series on his shoulders. Fortunately, things went extremely well, with Downey reprising the role many more times, including his farewell outing in Avengers: Endgame....

The more capable Apple TV with Siri plus an App Store is also said to feature universal search, Buzzfeed says and we’ve previously reported, which is a useful feature missing on current models. Paczkowski notes that this feature is based in part on Apple’s 2013 Matcha acquisition.

After ample speculation, new reports have surfaced stating that a Resident Evil 3 remake is in development and could release as soon as next year. The success of Resident Evil 2 Remake almost gauranteed a reboot of the third iteration of the series, and the fact that the title was also nominated as a Game of the Year candidate at The Game Awards 2019 speaks volumes for its reception. In many ways, Resident Evil 2 Remake won back consumer trust for Capcom, although the firm isn’t simply set on remakes as its bread and butter moving forward....

The franchise has appeared in just about every form aside from a TV show, so when can fans expect to see the upcoming Resident Evil Netflix series?

It was resolutely survival horror until the arrival of Resident Evil 4, which introduced far more action. It’s gone back and form between the genres over the years, while spinoffs like Resident Evil: Gaiden, Operation: Raccoon City and Dead Aim have experimented with different playstyles....
While iPhone photography keeps on improving thanks to the advancement of tiny camera sensors and image processors, it’s still nowhere near as fully-fledged as DSLR or Micro 4/3rd photography. You can’t swap out interchangeable lenses for different types of imagery, and have to rely on third-party manufacturers producing clip-on accessories. That’s where the Aukey 18mm HD wide angle clip-on lens comes in. As the name suggests, a wide angle lens lets you add extra width to your images....
blueLounge isn’t a typical Apple accessory maker. If you look through its 15-year backcatalog of releases, you’ll notice that its products are markedly different from somewhat overlapping alternatives produced by rivals — intensely practical and cleanly-designed, yet sometimes so conceptually minor that they’re hard to review. Take CableDrop and CableDrop Mini, for instance, circular adhesive pads that each do nothing more than hold one cord in a fixed position wherever you want it....

Facing criticism that Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker takes back the events of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, writer Chris Terrio speaks out. The Star Wars sequel trilogy, which began with 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens, has shown the vision of several different writers and directors. The first film was directed and co-written by J.J. Abrams, as was Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.
