These movies will be available for view on iTunes and through the network on the AppleTV. This will hopefully be the killer App of the AppleTV which has been lackluster in performance as well as sales up until this point. Most likely it was the studos who have been dragging their feet up until this point. “The Apple-Fox deal, likely to be announced at the Macworld show on January 14, has the potential to transform film distribution....

Those two words are likely to get people’s ears up. The qualifier is that the security hole is with unsecured jailbroken iPhones that have enabled SSH. The equivalent in the computer world would be telling everyone to set their root passwords to “alpine” and enable root access. Then put your computer on the Internet without a firewall and leave it until someone logs in. If you jailbreak your iPhone and don’t change your password, it is the equivalent to physically giving it to a malicious hacker....

With the highly anticipated release of John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum comes a return to the intriguing world of hired assassins that is the hallmark of the John Wick franchise. Now a trilogy of films, the franchise has always been characterized by stunning cinematography and innovative action sequences, as well as intricate world building populated by memorable people. From Winston, the unflappable manager of the luxury Continental hotel for assassins, to Aurelio, the chop shop mechanic who fixed John Wick’s prized car, these are characters who add depth and complexity to John Wick’s world....

I made the decision a few weeks ago to install the beta of macOS Catalina. It’s still pretty buggy, but since I enjoy testing out new features (and writing about them), I am willing to deal with the crashes and incompatibility throughout the summer. One of the biggest surprises for me has been the changes in the Reminders app. Over the years, I used several to-do/GTD/project management/task apps. From Kindless GTD, Omnifocus, Things, and Todoist, I’ve used a lot of them....

Is DCEU’s blockbuster Suicide Squad available to stream on Netflix? The DC Extended Universe is currently in great shape, with a line-up of exciting projects, from the eagerly awaited sequel Wonder Woman 1984 to Joaquin Phoenix’s mature take on the Joker. It has to be said the DCEU had some bumps along the way, however. Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice, the second official entry, was met with a mixed critical reception and its box-office gross proved disappointing to the studio....

Apple has slowly been improving the movie rental experience on iTunes this year as it focuses on revenue growth from services. Back in March, Apple introduced a new ‘rent once, watch anywhere’ feature that removed a playback restriction for viewing rentals on different devices. Now, Apple has doubled the amount of time you’re allowed to play a rental after you start watching. The new limit gives you playback access to a rented movie for 48 hours from the time you hit play....

What’s meant to occur is that customers purchasing film or TV content in HD will automatically also gain a standard definition version, which they can carry around and play on their iPhone or iPod. But, as described on an Apple support forum, the implementation appears a little buggy, with some users complaining that after waiting for a significant length of time for the HD version of the title to download, the badly-named SD version then overwrites the higher-resolution video....

UISettings, first third-party widget for the iOS 5 Notification Center Well, that didn’t take too long. The jailbreak community is obviously pleased with the new Notification Center in iOS 5 and its ability to run little web programs called widgets. Apple ships two-built in widgets, Weather and Stocks, that can be configured in Settings > Notifications and a recent proof-of-concept has taught us that developing widgets for the notification screen is technically feasible, even with the latest software development kit not officially endorsing widgets....

Joaquin Phoenix wanted Joker to include end-credits footage. A tradition that has become commonplace for movie adaptations of comic books, and even other film genres, post-credit scenes are usually employed as a tease for future installments of a film franchise. But they’ve also been utilized in other ways over the years, either as a way to relieve tension or to sneak in a big surprise. One of the more recent examples of this, Spider-Man: Far From Home, had two of the most game-changing post-credit scenes to date....

Is James Bond’s Aston Martin DB5 in Skyfall the same car that he originally won in Casino Royale, or a different vehicle altogether? There are several key components to any James Bond film, such as highly specific drink orders and a string of disfigured villains, but luxury sports cars have always been a reliable feature of the franchise. Traditionally, 007 has a penchant for Aston Martins going back all the way to the Sean Connery era, although Roger Moore preferred the Lotus, another British brand....

One thing that did strike many in the place – if Apple can add a video camera and microphone to the iPod nano at such a low cost that it has been able to pretty much maintain existing price points, why on earth did it neglect to introduce this in the iPod touch? Particularly as that product’s WiFi connectivity could make this one amazing video camera. The new products – the iPod shuffle stainless steel version is actually quite astounding in how it looks....

Director James Wan has officially weighed in on the announced Aquaman spinoff based on the sea-dwelling creatures in the film known as the Trench. Following Aquaman’s success, The Trench will no doubt be far more horrific than super. During their quest to find the King’s Trident in Aquaman, Arthur (Jason Momoa) and Mera (Amber Heard) are in the middle of the ocean when their ship is attacked by an army of grotesque sea creatures....

Jay Z suggested in an interview with Billboard that Jimmy Iovine had tried to lure away top-selling artists from his newly-relaunched streaming music service, Tidal, but that he wasn’t angry about it. Iovine had reputedly offered more up-front cash to Tidal artists who agreed to do a deal with Apple. The rap and hip-hop star said that he had initially hoped to work in cooperation with Iovine, having “talked to every single service,” but had apparently been rebuffed … I think that’s just his competitive nature, and I don’t know if he’s looking at the bigger picture: That it’s not about me and it’s not about him; it’s about the future of the music business....

The current wave of live-action Disney remakes began with 2014’s Maleficent, starring Angelina Jolie in a complete reboot of the Sleeping Beauty mythos. The film proved to be a surprise box office success to the tune of over $758 million worldwide, thus ushering in the new era of Disney revivals. Five years later, a sequel arrived, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, which takes the story in a brand new direction under the direction of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales co-director, Joachim Rønning....

Today, Smartphones can survive a dunk in a pool and can be used inside the pool too! Every waterproof smartphone doesn’t have the same degree of resistance against water. Some have less, and some have more; we will discuss how to measure the resistance further in the article....

I’ve been a fan of podcasting since 2004 when I was listening to This Week in Tech, DL.TV, The MacCast and other great shows. Since then, the podcast industry has grown by leaps and bounds. When the iPhone included a built-in Apple Podcasts app, podcasts finally moved from a niche industry to something that is part of the social norm. But it’s still incredibly complicated to actually build podcasts unless you are familiar with microphones, editing software, and RSS technology....

James Gunn is the big winner from Disney’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 fiasco. Last summer, around the time of San Diego Comic-Con, Gunn became the target of a politically-motivated attack when some of his old comments and tweets went viral. Gunn had started out working for bad taste film studio Troma, and at the time he’d used off-color and offensive humor both in his work and online. He’d long since moved on from that, and had even publicly reflected on the fact he regretted his old comments on social media, but they were still out there and proved to be a potent weapon against him....
