There’s a lot going on at Blizzard: a new report has unveiled that the company is not only working on Diablo 4 and Overwatch 2, but that the developer has also felt the need to cancel a previously-unannounced StarCraft FPS title in order to ramp up focus on the former two games. Blizzard has recently been struggling with public perception, as the once mighty studio received a great deal of backlash over the way it laid off hundreds of employees despite record earnings....

Introduced into the world of Breaking Bad in season 2’s appropriately titled episode Better Call Saul, shady attorney Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) didn’t waste much time in becoming a fan favorite supporting character on the show, with many fans predicting that he might eventually get a spinoff long before it actually happened. But happen it did, with Better Call Saul quickly establishing itself as a worthy companion series to the Emmy magnet that spawned it, with much of that credit of course going to Odenkirk’s portrayal of the titular character....

The genius mind behind The Room isn’t done making movies yet, as the trailer for Tommy Wiseau’s latest project Big Shark has just dropped, and it looks completely crazy. Of course, one would expect nothing less from the now rather infamous Wiseau. Wiseau is best known for The Room, a movie so bad that it gained a cult audience of fans who are fascinated with every aspect of the film, and regularly attend screenings across the world....

In Black Widow, Natasha Romanoff (Scarlett Johansson) gets a new white costume, which becomes the latest instance where the Avenger has mirrored White Canary (Caity Lotz) of DC’s Legends of Tomorrow. Of course, along with the rest of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, Black Widow wore a white uniform in Avengers: Endgame, but the new white suit in her upcoming solo movie sheds further light on how Black Widow and White Canary have been mirroring each other for years....

Black Widow’s “family” could be killed by Thanos - adding more context to her sacrifice in Avengers: Endgame. The next Marvel Studios movie will take a step back into the MCU’s history, telling a previously untold tale of Natasha Romanoff in the aftermath of Captain America: Civil War. Natasha is now one of the world’s most wanted, and she’s forced to head to her old family for help.

BlackBerry is back in the news today as the company is making a move further into the enterprise mobility management space. BlackBerry is buying the Sunnyvale, California-based company Good Technology in an all-cash deal worth $425 million. For BlackBerry, the purchase is about investing into cross-platform mobile device management for enterprise customers, an increasing focus for the company since it’s reign as the top handset maker was stifled by iOS and Android....

Each reviewer works nine-hour shifts, processing as many as 1,000 audio clips per shift. In some cases, the recordings are rather boring and consist of simply mining “accumulated voice data for specific utterances such as ’Taylor Swift’.” If employees need “help parsing a muddled word,” they might share the audio files in a chatroom with other employees. Bloomberg’s report also makes mention of Apple’s efforts in regards to Siri. The report explains that while Apple has “human helpers,” the recordings lack personally identifiable information....

All things come to an end, even critically acclaimed adult-oriented animated comedies, as the first trailer for the final season of BoJack Horseman proves. The series began life as a biting satire of Hollywood excess and superficiality, as told through the lens of an anthropomorphized horse and washed-up actor named BoJack with the voice of Will Arnett. Over the course of the first season, creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg gradually revealed his series to be about so much more, like substance abuse, depression, and childhood trauma, making it one of the gems in Netflix’s streaming crown....

Created by Hart Hanson, and loosely based on the life and novels of forensic anthropologist Kathy Reichs who produced the show, Bones follows forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperance Brennan, her team of scientists at the Jeffersonian Institue, and FBI Special Agent Seely Booth. The team dealt with all kinds of mysteries surrounding human remains in various states of decay. With just the right amount of mystery, drama, action, and comedy, Bones was a big hit....

Our favorites over on The Big Bang Theory can typically be found at Caltech doing experiments, gaming at one of their apartments, or hanging out at the local comic book store. The boys were at the comic book store so much that they befriended the owner, Stuart. He became such a regular part of their lives (and as such, our lives) that we learned the ins and outs of the comic book store as much as their own apartments....

The billion-dollar propane seller said the incident started on December 12 but did not answer questions about which ransomware group was behind the attack or which systems were affected. “Superior has temporarily disabled certain computer systems and applications as it investigates this incident and is in the process of bringing these systems back online,” the company said, adding that it “took steps to secure its systems and mitigate the impact to the Corporation’s data and operations....

Bird Box star Rosa Salazar wants to do a sequel that would focus on her character’s fate. Since its release, Netflix’s sci-fi thriller has been a massive success and has been at the center of countless viral trends. While Salazar only had a short role in the film, that hasn’t stopped viewers from theorizing her fate. And, despite multiple viewers wanting to see a Bird Box sequel, there has yet to be an announcement regarding a continuation....

This season’s featured cast includes pop singer Miley Cyrus, Avengers star Anthony Mackie, Aquaman’s Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, and Sherlock’s Andrew Scott, and the trailer confirms that the new season will release in just a few weeks, on June 5. Since we’ve already had one Black Mirror release since season 4, in the form of the interactive story Bandersnatch, Black Mirror season 5 is shorter than usual, with just three episodes....

After nearly fifty years, the iconic Marvel hero Black Panther finally took to the big screen in his own solo movie, bringing the rich mythology of Wakanda and a strong supporting cast with him. As one of the few successful early Marvel titles to go this long without adaptation, Black Panther is truly something that fans have been waiting a lifetime for. However, because the hero has only made guest appearances in various animated series and a stunning live-action debut in Civil War previous to the movie, many people probably aren’t as familiar with the world of Black Panther as they are with most of the other Marvel characters who they’ve come to know so well....

Black Panther director Ryan Coogler regrets killing off Andy Serkis’ Ulysses Klaue. It’s been several months since Black Panther took the world by storm. Not only has it grossed over $1.3 billion globally, but T’Challa has also become one of the most popular characters in the MCU. Although the movie had an abundance of characters, whose stories could be explored in further sequels, some of the characters had to be killed off, such as Klaue....

Scarlett Johansson is back in her iconic (and seemingly upgraded) super suit, but Black Widow’s old friend Red Guardian doesn’t look quite as cool. Natasha Romanov, aka S.H.I.E.L.D’s best spy, may have literally fallen to her death in Avengers: Endgame, but that doesn’t mean her story isn’t worth telling. In fact, quite the opposite, judging by the epic Black Widow movie trailer that just dropped. In it, everyone’s favourite super spy is seen grappling with her dark past, which, as the trailer’s voice over tells viewers, she is done running from....

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman published a monster new report this morning detailing next-generation MacBook Pro updates, a new MacBook Air, and updates for the Mac Pro and Mac mini. Also mentioned in the report is a tidbit of information about the development of a larger-screened Apple Silicon iMac. Apple introduced the 24-inch M1 iMac last month, and embargoed reviews were just published today. This iMac serves as the replacement for the 21....

Apple is shifting its strategy for Apple Arcade in an effort to retain subscribers, according to a new report from Bloomberg. The report explains that Apple has canceled the contracts for some games still in development as it revamps its approach. According to the report, an Apple Arcade creative producer told developers in April that their upcoming games didn’t meet Apple’s expectations for “engagement” on the platform. “Apple is increasingly interested in titles that will keep users hooked, so subscribers stay beyond the free trial of the service,” the report says....
