Update: Best Buy further teases Death Stranding will release in 2019. Death Stranding voice actor Troy Baker drops a strong hint the game is being released in 2019. Death Stranding is the first game from director Hideo Kojima since Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, which marked his final involvement with the series. Kojima had a well-published falling out with longtime publisher Konami during The Phantom Pain’s development, leading to him departing the company when the game was completed....

A new report today says that AirPods will be made in Vietnam for the first time this quarter, as Apple accelerates plans to diversify production outside China. It also suggests the company is preparing for a fall in demand for AirPods in the current quarter due to the impact of the coronavirus crisis … The Nikkei Asian Review report says the goal is make around a third of base-model AirPods in Vietnam....

2016 has given Illumination Entertainment another hit animated franchise in The Secret Life of Pets, to go along with the studio’s crown jewel: the Despicable Me and Minions films. The Minions took center stage in 2015 with their own spinoff; itself, a huge commercial success and Illumination’s highest-grossing animated feature to date (with a $1.16 billion worldwide gross). In 2017, it will be Gru’s turn to step back into the spotlight with his own threequel, in the form of Despicable Me 3....

The DCEU has a plethora of popular and beloved comic book couples to adapt. Duos such as Batman and Catwoman and Superman and Lois Lane are some of comics’ most well-known romantic pairings, inspiring generations of Halloween and cosplay costumes. So far, the DCEU has incorporated several DC romantic pairings. Some have proved effective teams and their love for each other has garnered fan support, whereas others have only made fans scratch their heads....

Mild spoilers for Deadpool 2. Deadpool 2 may be striking with the strength of Juggernaut, but don’t expect a direct sequel Deadpool 3 any time soon. It took over a decade for Ryan Reynolds to get his Merc with a Mouth passion project green-lit, but no time at all for the sequel; by the time Deadpool released, a second movie was already in development. That sequel is now here and shaping up to be an even bigger hit than the las; its reviews are on a similar par, with many critics comparing it favorably on account of expanded scope to the action and comedy, and already it’s smashing box office records....

This role wears many, if not all, of the hats on a security team and is currently a very in-demand job, to the point that it is hard to fill. Like many other cybersecurity roles, this one can be reached via two general paths — by earning a degree or earning certifications. This article will detail both paths and conclude with a well-founded recommendation for which path you should take for the advanced-career-stage cybersecurity engineer....

New Hellboy star David Harbour has revealed how his demonic superhero character would be able to defeat Marvel’s Mad Titan Thanos. First created by Mike Mignola back in 1993, Hellboy has become a cult favorite character thanks to his many appearances in Dark Horse Comics as well as the two Hellboy movies made by Guillermo del Toro. Hellboy’s return to the screen in 2019 has not gone well however, as the Hellboy reboot was met with scathing reviews by critics and yawns of indifference from the movie going public....

One of the best asymmetrical multiplayer games in the last five years has become Dead by Daylight. There have been numerous copies of this original premise since it was first released – a multiplayer horror game with a monstrous killer stalking four survivors and attempting to capture them before they can escape – but nothing has matched its originality. It naturally creates a horror movie’s tense arc through intricate but intuitive checks and balances and thoughtfully designed characters....

Netflix releases a trailer for the new series Dead to Me. Created by American comedian Liz Feldman, the dark comedy stars Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini. In April 2018, Dead to Me was officially ordered by Netflix. Dead to Me is co-produced by Will Ferrell, Adam McKay, and Gloria Sanchez Productions - the sister company of Gary Sanchez Productions. Applegate portrays Jen, a grieving widow trying to move forward with her life....

Google has released a commercial that advertises the Google Assistant program by adding it into movies such as Deadpool and Scream, in order to show how useful it would be to the characters in those films. Google Assistant is a virtual assistant program that can be communicated with in order to issue commands to compatible devices, including the Google Home Hub and Google Home Mini, which are both shown in the commercial....

Anyone who has been following news about the upcoming Deadpool movie knows the marketing team has been killing it with their viral efforts. We at Screen Rant named it one of this year’s 25 most anticipated movies, judging by people’s reactions. From their 12 days of Christmas “gifts,” witty posters, and R-rated trailers – the buzz around this film is huge. On top of that, early reactions to a surprise fan showing are extremely positive....

The core gameplay behind Death Stranding stems largely from the delivery of packages in the barren landscape that was once America. Of course, this is done by throwing packages on the back of the main character, Sam Bridges (Norman Reedus), and manually lugging them around. While this may sound easy, it’s actually quite an issue at times for anyone that is hoping to do several missions simultaneously. Holding a number of packages can make the journey even more perilous for players too, which is why building up Sam’s strength and balance are instrumental in completing more tasks....

Earlier this year, I reviewed the Denim app, which is an iPhone app that lets you easily create your own playlist artwork. Denim recently received a major update that not only added new artwork styles, but also integration with the Music app and a new way to preview the artwork with your own playlists. Version 2.0 of the Denim app comes with over 20 new cover artworks, including three new categories: shapes, grayscale, and activities....

Blackmagic Design’s DaVinci Resolve and DaVinci Resolve Studio both received recent updates that implement support for the Touch Bar on the new MacBook Pro. The professional non-linear editor is popular among videographers for its immersive color correction features. While Apple’s flagship Final Cut Pro X received Touch Bar support back in October, DaVinci Resolve’s December 14th update brings one of the most impressive Touch Bar support implementations that I’ve seen thus far....

DC Comics announced that the company is canceling all of its comic book convention appearances through the end of March 2020, due to the spread of the Coronavirus in the United States. This announcement came hot on the heels of the company canceling the New York City premiere of their latest animated film, Superman: Red Son, earlier in the week over the same concerns. The past few weeks have been full of turmoil for DC Comics....

Superman actor Henry Cavill says that his next DCEU appearance won’t spend much time explaining Clark Kent’s resurrection. Going into the recent theatrical release of latest DCEU entry Justice League, fans were never in doubt that Superman would return, despite having sacrificed his life to defeat Doomsday at the end of 2016’s Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. Warner Bros.’ marketing was at least nice enough to keep him off the posters and out of the trailers leading up to release day, but even the most casual of DC movie fans knew full well that there would be no Justice League for long without Superman to lead it....

The late, great Prince once appeared in his very own comic miniseries called Prince: Alter Ego. Tim Burton’s Batman was a massive event back in 1989 with the movie being advertised everywhere. Burton’s regular composer Danny Elfman (Beetlejuice) scored the movie, with his theme becoming synonymous with the franchise, and it was later used in Batman: The Animated Series. Prince was also a fan of the Batman character and once taught himself to play the theme song to the 1960’s Adam West TV series....

Springing from the success of Arrow and The Flash, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow will unite a slew of second-string heroes (and a few villains) from those previous series into one legendary team. They aren’t quite the Justice League, but they’re certainly the closest The CW can come without stepping on DC and Warner Bros’ bigger plans (read: the DCEU). This week both Arrow and The Flash continued playing their part in setting up Legends, featuring the origins of Hawkman and Hawkgirl as well as introducing the villainous immortal, Vandal Savage....

DC’s non-DCEU movie label will kick off with the Joaquin Phoenix Joker movie and could end up being called DC Dark or DC Black, according to a new report. The idea behind starting up a DC film sub-franchise is that it will allow room for directors to come in and make one-off DC movies that aren’t beholden to the continuity of the larger DC cinematic universe. Much like DC’s Elseworlds imprint does for the company’s comic book division, DC Dark/Black would (in theory) open the door to more experimenting with the DC movie brand and its characters....

The brutal online landscape of horror-inspired survival game Dead by Daylight challenges players to master the art of killing and surviving. The more enticing of the two, the killing aspect of the game, is a skill which new players may find to be more difficult than expected. Having to take down a group of competent survivors will prove a more difficult task than horror films make it out to be....
