Drop-tests are always fun to watch, but I’ve always felt that the reliability of most of them is suspect simply because there are so many variables. Most involve someone dropping a phone by hand, and the distance is often as imprecisely measured as ‘waist height’ or ‘head height,’ making it hard to be sure both phones experienced exactly the same force. Dropping a phone from a hand can result in differences in initial angles, and releasing one side of the phone a fraction of a second before the other can impart a rotation to the device....

With another chapter of Takeshi Kovacs’ life concluded, here’s what we know so far about Altered Carbon season 3. Developed for TV by Laeta Kalogridis and based on the books by Richard K. Morgan, Altered Carbon debuted on Netflix in 2018. Joel Kinnaman starred in the first season of the sci-fi series, with Anthony Mackie taking over the role of Takeshi in season 2. Altered Carbon is set in a world where humans are implanted with a “stack” in their spine when they are babies, which stores their mind and memories and can be transferred from one body to the next, granting potentially eternal life....

Each year sees the release of amazing movies, but sometimes it’s hard to know which movies are really worth watching. Though most theaters only play major releases backed by big studios, the vast majority of films released each year come out with comparatively little fanfare, premiering at film festivals and often opening only in select theaters before hitting streaming services. These movies tend to lack the star power and easy categorization of most blockbusters, but the best among them find creative and unique ways to make up for it, whether with tension, humor, character, thematic substance, or even sheer originality— a quality lacking in many of 2017’s big-budget studio releases....

And at a time when comic book characters are central to the biggest movie franchise the film industry has ever seen, to the point that nearly every Marvel movie is an obligatory theater-going experience, The Boys couldn’t have been more timely in making its small screen debut. In bringing Ennis and Robertson’s work to television, Kripke has envisioned a world in which superheroes are the world’s biggest celebrities, with their faces (masked and otherwise) emblazoned on every imaginable product from beer to breakfast cereal, and when they’re not saving citizens from armed bank robbers or maniacs with guns, they’re starring in movies about themselves....

Disney has announced a new, live-action Aladdin spinoff movie centered around Prince Anders is in production and destined to premiere on their new streaming service, Disney+. The live action Aladdin remake was a world box office success despite some mixed reception by audiences and critics. This success was made all the more surprising given Guy Ritchie was directing as Ritchie is best known and loved for his gangster comedies, which tend to be a bit grittier than a Disney musical....

Queen of the Damned may not have been a major movie through a critical lens, but it has become a cult classic amongst genre fans mostly for Aaliyah’s performance in the role of Queen Akasha, which originally garnered some Hollywood A-List interest from many other actresses. The film was released in 2002 and is based off the novel of the same name by Anne Rice, the third book in her series, The Vampire Chronicles....

Netflix’s Always Be My Maybe is a charming, laugh out loud romantic comedy, bolstered by its leads’ performances, and perfect for fans of the genre. The last few years have seen a major revival of the romantic comedy movie genre, and Netflix has been integral to it. While Hollywood is still a little reluctant to theatrically release rom-coms, Netflix has vastly increased the number of romantic comedies it develops. The latest of these is Always Be My Maybe, an excellent addition to Netflix’s originals slate with a rom-com about two childhood friends who reconnect as adults....

Warning: SPOILERS ahead for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Here’s a complete breakdown of every Once Upon a Time in Hollywood controversy. Directed by Quentin Tarantino, the 161-minute film uses real people and celebrities from the 1960s to drive a storyline about two fictional characters, actor Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio) and stuntman Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt). The overall mashup of reality and fantasy has rubbed some people the wrong way for various reasons....

One of the biggest, best, and most iconic movie franchises in the history of cinema, Star Wars is a trailblazing cornerstone of pop culture that changed film and geekdom upon its initial 1977 release. The quality of the twelve theatrically released Star Wars films ranges massively, even though each has their brilliance, some do not have the same great craftsmanship as others. Perhaps more consistently beloved by fans than critics, it is easy to go online to see wide reception to the films....

The title of Valente’s novella, which features art by Annie Wu, and the premise for the plot, comes from the comic book term “women in refrigerators,” or when a female character is frozen out of the plot i.e. killed, raped, brainwashed or stripped of her powers to provide emotional motivation and backstory for the male character. Now, the novella and the concept will be the basis for a new superhero TV show....

About AWS Inspector In this article, we will try to understand how AWS Inspector communicates with the EC2 instances to assess the servers. We will also learn to configure the AWS inspector to operate automatically. Before we start, I would like to mention that this is not a penetration testing tool because penetration testing specifically breaks the system from the outside. AWS inspector, by comparison, is a process in which we install an agent in all the EC2 instances which will then check all the vulnerabilities internally and provide a detailed report with suggested mitigations....

There’s no argument that we live in a world of unprecedented connectivity. Most of us, it seems, are never out of arm’s length of an internet connected device, putting us a few button clicks away from the knowledge of the entire world as well as our nearest and dearest friends. Technology has changed interaction to the point where a certain amount of distraction is almost expected. Even shows these days tout a two-screen experience, with networks encouraging you to log in and live tweet with the stars or gain access to behind the scenes information as your show is playing in the background....
