Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) is officially “certified fresh” on Rotten Tomatoes with a respectable 87% score. After its debut, the film briefly held the highest Rotten Tomatoes score in the history of the DCEU at 92%, but it only had 49 reviews at the time. Now, with 124 critic reviews on record, the score takes a slight dip but is still performing better than some of the earlier DCEU releases, like Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, and Justice League....

Rumors have been suggesting that Apple will introduce new iPad Pro models sometime in the first half of this year, and Bloomberg has already said that these models should arrive in April. While we’re still waiting for some news, Bloomberg today reported that the new 2021 iPad Pro is indeed coming later this month, despite supply constraints with the Mini-LED displays. Today’s report claims that Apple has been facing problems in the production of the new iPad Pro models, particularly with the supply of Mini-LED displays — which are expected to replace the LCD screen in the 12....

Social isn’t just about awareness anymore. It’s a tool for customer service and nurturing loyalty. So, you need to leverage other departments to support the end-to-end customer experience. To stretch social media’s impact in your organization, set up a continuous feedback loop to collect and analyze data from your customers and stakeholders.

The game is available on Windows, Xbox One, Google Stadia, PlayStation 4, Macintosh platforms. Though the players love this game so much for its graphics and gameplay, it’s also worth mentioning that there are some bugs or errors as well....

Bewitched is a classic sitcom, embedded in pop culture for eternity. It was a 1960s gem, set in New York, focusing on a young married couple who aren’t your average next-door neighbors. Darrin (Dick York) and Samantha (Elizabeth Montgomery) Stephens often find themselves in the middle of some kind of situation, thanks to Samantha’s witchcraft or impromptu visits from one of her relatives or acquaintances. It was always hilarious, and somehow, the two always worked together to get things back to their normal in the end....

This weekend is Star Wars Celebration 2017 and while there’s a lot of cool panels from the galaxy far, far away, none were as exciting as the one for Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Word has been very tight on Rian Johnson’s Episode VIII, but now he and Kathleen Kennedy (along with some of the cast) are ready to spill the beans. The panel didn’t disappoint, offering an hour of jokes, surprises and, of course, big reveals....

UPDATE: Read our breakdown of the Birds of Prey teaser here. Margot Robbie debuts Harley Quinn’s new look for Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn). Robbie broke out in the role of Dr. Harleen Quinzel in 2016’s Suicide Squad and immediately made audiences eager to see more of her. Warner Bros. and DC Films have been listening and developed at least four different possible movies for Harley to star in....

When it comes to the dark world of Netflix’s anthology suspense series Black Mirror, nothing is what it really seems to be. This brilliant successor to The Twilight Zone brings that series’ arcane odysseys and neck-snapping twist endings into the digital device era in a way that’s a little too familiar. For those of us staring hours a day into the flat glass screens of our phones, tablets, and computer monitors, Black Mirror’s tormented reality always seems to be just one or two steps ahead of the technology we increasingly depend upon....

Black Panther co-star Andy Serkis recalls an on-set incident in which lead Chadwick Boseman almost accidentally broke his ribs during an action scene. While the actors in superhero films take part in the filming of many crazy scenes, for the most part, they’re rarely in any real danger. After all, movies are designed to simulate death-defying circumstances, not actually inflict them on the cast and crew. Unfortunately though, when filming action scenes, sometimes things go wrong, leading to painful results....

BlogWriter – A Lightweight iPhone Blogger Client with Some Rough Patches BlogWriter bills itself as a mobile blogging client for Google Blogger (blogger.com and blogspot.com), WordPress.com, self-hosted WordPress blogs and “others” (i.e. MSN Live Spaces, MetaWeblog). As someone who’s not always satisfied with the official WordPress iPhone app, I found the prospect of an all-in-one blogging client appealing. First, I tried it with my Blogger.com account. Blog Setup with BlogWriter When you first launch BlogWriter Lite, you are invited to set up your blog by Touching My Blog....

Apple is set to release its first Mac based on a custom ARM chip next year, according to Bloomberg. This lines up with the previous timeline reported from Bloomberg, which cited late 2020/2021 timeframe, and other reports from publications like analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. Bloomberg says that Apple is working on a range of chips aimed for future Macs. The first Apple-designed chip will apparently be based on a 5-nanometer fabrication process, and feature 12 CPU cores: 8 high-performance cores and 4-efficiency cores....

Beyoncé’s major talent lies in her vocal ability and her stage presence. But being a music industry superstar isn’t all the Houston-born singer is cut out for. She has also taken on several acting projects while slowly building her music career. Often portraying characters that have some kind of musical ability, Beyoncé has also appeared in films that have pushed her out of her comfort zone and forced her to explore her acting potential....

Bird Box has been drawing comparisons to A Quiet Place, but despite some surface similarities, the two horror films are actually quite different. Since it was released in December, director Susanne Bier’s Bird Box has become a hit for Netflix and a viral sensation, with clever and funny memes spreading around the Internet and some fans taking on the “Bird Box Challenge” (which is not encouraged by Netflix). Directed, co-written, and starring John Krasinski, A Quiet Place also became a hit when it premiered in April 2018....

Birds of Prey’s first trailer looks nothing like the DC movies that audiences have become accustomed to, and that’s a very promising sign. DC Films has firmly established itself as the darker of the mainstream superhero pack over the past decades or so, defined by the visual stylings of Zack Snyder in Man of Steel and Batman v Superman (which bled over into David Ayer’s Suicide Squad and Patty Jenkins’ Wonder Woman) and Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Trilogy before that....

Marvel Studios successfully started the third phase of their cinematic universe last year with the releases of blockbusters Captain America: Civil War and Doctor Strange. The films introduced a bevy of new characters to the ever-expanding world, many of whom made strong first impressions. Among the fresh faces was T’Challa, a.k.a. Black Panther. Thanks to a well-received turn by Chadwick Boseman in Civil War, many are excited to see the King of Wakanda take center stage in his own solo vehicle, which is due in February 2018....

Blade Runner 2049 has been playing in theaters for a few weeks now, and unfortunately it is not the box office success many hoped it would be prior to its release. Arriving 35 years after Ridley Scott’s seminal piece of science-fiction, the Blade Runner sequel received plenty of critical praise when it first opened. Everything from the breathtaking visuals to strong performances earned high marks, with many in agreement that it was one of the best films of the year....

After previously teasing support earlier this month, BNZ in New Zealand officially now supports Apple Pay. The bank joins ANZ in accepting Apple’s mobile payment platform in New Zealand. Speaking a few weeks ago, BNZ explained that the move to support Apple Pay comes following increasing requests from users. Apple Pay support for BNZ was first announced earlier this month, though without a specific release date. The bank has since updated its website with details on how to set up Apple Pay and use it in store....

[UPDATE: Greg Berlanti has confirmed the Booster Gold movie story.] - Look out, Suicide Squad: the DC Extended Universe may have another offbeat, unlikely hero coming to the big screen before long. That’s according to new reports claiming that inside WB, one of the chief architects of DC’s successful TV universe is (or has been) hard at work getting a fan-favorite hero to the screen - after years of trying. It’s been a long time, but Booster Gold may be closer than ever to joining DC’s live-action roster....

There’s no real rulebook on what it takes to win Big Brother. It usually requires a balancing act of getting along with others in the house, being cunning and deceptive (but secretly so), winning competitions, and earning the favour of the jury members. But even if you excel at all, or most, of these things, sometimes you can still fall short of winning the reality competition game. Sometimes, something you take for granted, like angering someone who has the power to influence the jury, getting caught in a lie, or even picking the wrong person to align with, or take to the finals, can mean the difference between winner and second place (or worse....
