“20th Century Studios has tapped Sinqua Walls and Jack Harlow to star in its reboot of White Men Can’t Jump. The remake was first announced in 2017, when Blake Griffin and Black-Ish creator Kenya Barris signed on to develop the project.” Read more at Hype Beast The fictional city of Madripoor, last seen in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, was referenced in the most recent episode of Moon Knight....
Marvel’s Loki is many things at various points over the course of its six-episode run: A Philosophy 101 debate about determinism, a rumination on the existence of free will, a Doctor Who-style meditation on the interconnected messiness of time, a buddy cop romp through all of known reality, and the most bizarre love story that Marvel has yet told on screen. Tom Hiddleston remains as charming as ever as Loki, playing an earlier version of the God of Mischief with much of the pathos that ultimately made his original take on the character so compelling to watch....
Loki Laufeyson, bless him, realizes early on in the Disney+ series bearing his name that the Time Variance Authority is not to be trifled with. Upon meeting Loki, a TVA “Hunter” named B-15 (Wunmi Mosaku) whoops him with a time stick, the reverberations of which rattle around The God of Mischiefs’s body at 1/16th speed as he hits the ground. A little later on, Loki attempts to do some of his trademark trickster magic only to find that his abilities don’t work in the TVA’s offices....
Telnet is one of the popular Linux/Windows utilities that has long served its purpose. A major problem with telnet on modern systems is that it is not secure. All communication in telnet happens in plain text, and all network traffic is unencrypted. Essentially anyone with proper access and tools can snoop on network traffic to read this traffic. As such, most modern Linux operating systems do not come with telnet pre-installed, and others recommend against using it....
Here’s our breakdown of what we’re looking at in this trailer and what it might mean for the series. We open on a shot of a beautiful, elegant waterside city that is probably on the island kingdom of Númenor. Over that, we hear a young girl’s voice speaking. The choice of a young girl to introduce audiences to Tolkien’s usually male-dominated world clearly sets out the series’ intention to tell a new range of stories within the confines of Tolkien’s mythology....
The desire to be scared is so strong that entertainment corporations are increasingly developing their whole October content calendar around it. Thank goodness they are, because while fear is something that the dopamine receptors in our brain craver, it is so, so, so, so hard for anything to satisfactorily fill that need. Horror is hard. Creating a truly great horror movie is nigh impossible. It’s so hard to sustain a sense of horror and fear for 90-plus minutes, especially when trying to follow all of the other traditional hallmarks of good storytelling....
But even if his latest film, Mandy, doesn’t exactly herald a Cage renaissance (Nicolassance?), it’s a cut above the usual mediocre-to-unwatchable fare he’s been turning up in. Mandy is directed and co-written (with Aaron Stewart-Ahn) by Italian-Swedish filmmaker Panos Cosmatos, who caused a stir in 2010 with Beyond the Black Rainbow, a psychedelic horror/sci-fi hybrid that tried to out-Cronenberg such early works by that Canadian maverick as Shivers, Crimes of the Future, and Videodrome....
Last August, Candyman and Little Woods director Nia DaCosta was tapped by Marvel Studios to helm the sequel to their 2019 Brie Larson-led blockbuster Captain Marvel, becoming the youngest filmmaker to direct a Marvel film. It’s clear that the Brooklyn-born filmmaker is brimming with passion for her projects, and in a new interview with Inverse she’s been talking to writer and professor Roxane Gay about how she has approached the upcoming movie, which will add budding superheroes Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) and Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) to Carol Danvers’ ongoing saga....
While we’re excited to kick some ass as the star of Into the Spider-Verse, what is a superhero story without the villain? Peter Parker got to take on the Sinister Six while hinting at the Green Goblin and Venom on the horizon. So who will Miles get to tangle with? In the new gameplay demo, we see that Miles is facing off against both Roxxon (Marvel’s go-to evil corporation) and an army of cyber-goons led by the Tinkerer....
The video game industry is full of titles that seem almost custom-made for Mass Effect fans, even though some of these games predate BioWare’s legendary series. More than a few of these titles are sci-fi RPGs that focus on worldbuilding and memorable characters, while others are non-linear stories that thrive on player choices and beg for multiple playthroughs. Few hit the same highs as Mass Effect, but odds are anyone who loves the franchise will also adore these games....
That film, Midsommar, is out now and finds Aster channeling yet more raw emotional territory — this time the slow-motion catastrophe of a painful breakup — through the lens of folk horror, a subgenre distinguished by its exploration of folklore and legend, its pastoral, secluded settings and the often shocking ritual and sexual violence that occurs in them. Read More: Midsommar Review The center of the film is Dani (Florence Pugh), a student racked by horrific personal tragedy and the decay of her relationship with her obliging but emotionally distant boyfriend Christian (Jack Reynor)....
Prior to The Raid, Taslim was a professional Judo athlete and a member of Indonesia’s National Judo team from 1997 to 2009. He won gold medals at the Southeast Asia Judo Championships and the Indonesian National Games. No other actor can boast a competitive record like this. What’s more, Taslim is also trained in Wushu and Taekwondo, and he picked up Pencak Silat for The Raid, so his combative range goes far beyond Judo throws and falls....
Everything changed in the explosive season 1 finale. The Spree attacked a stadium during a soccer game to warn the world of witches of impending threat, by hypnotizing the entire crowd to chant “Our ancient enemy has returned,” temporarily ceasing hostilities to get the message out. The Fort Salem witches then came face to face with the witch-hating Camarilla, in an all-out battle that cost the lives of several witches....
While Mulan may be the most familiar of woman Chinese warriors (at least to American audiences), she’s only one in a rich history of historical and legendary female heroes in Chinese history. With the live-action adaptation of Mulan releasing on Disney+ this Friday, here are some of the highlights you might encounter when brushing up on your Chinese legends and history—figures who perhaps warrant their own feature film adaptation…...
Ignoring the 2017 movie is for the best. Not just because of the scathing reviews the film received upon release but because Death Note works best when it’s a serialized story told over a long season instead of trying to cram it all into two hours. After all, Death Note was originally conceived as a 12-volume manga — later adapted into a popular 37-episode anime — about how main character Light uses the titular Death Note, a notebook which kills anyone who’s name is written on its pages, to murder others and get away with it, and the wide-ranging repercussions of his actions....
Nmap sends packets and analyzes the response it gets to discover hosts and services on a computer network. It is one of the most widely used port scanners available today to help you find open ports and detecting security risks on a network. This is the first step for an attacker to get information about the network of targets and identify a potential way to launch an attack. An attacker will know about the services running on open ports along with their version, which helps in determining vulnerabilities for the corresponding version....

After years of speculation, delays, and more than a few unanswered questions, you’ll soon be able to play Overwatch 2 during the game’s upcoming beta access period. It’s been a long strange road for Overwatch 2. Even before the scandal that rocked Activision Blizzard was made public, many fans questioned the state of Overwatch 2 and even the premise of the concept. Overwatch is certainly in need of major updates, but is a somewhat unusual pseudo-sequel that consists of a combination of entirely new content, delayed updates, and soft reboots really the way to go?...
Having debuted on July 28, 2019, Pennyworth is the product of creator/executive producer/writer Bruno Heller (The Mentalist, Rome) and executive producer/director Danny Cannon (CSI franchise), and served as a quick reunion of key personnel from another Batman prequel series, Fox’s Gotham, which had just ended its five-season run that April. However, any associations end there, since Pennyworth is set in London in the 1960s, therefore—after doing some quick math—eliminating the notion of any continuity connection with the contemporary-set Gotham....
Yes, yes, yes, my friends, we’ve heard all the stories both about Ed Wood and about Plan 9. His name has come to be synonymous with inept filmmaking, the worst of the worst. He was a deluded, cross dressing nut. Plan 9 was haphazardly constructed around a few, short minutes of test footage Wood shot of Bela Lugosi shortly before Lugosi died. Oh, there’s Criswell and the stock footage and the burning paper plate and Tor Johnson’s acting and Tor Johnson’s house and the wobbly cardboard headstones and the re-used props and sets and Dolores’ chiropractor who was taller than Lugosi and Vampira’s crazy eyes and the disjointed dialogue and what all hell....
