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....

Johnny Depp has had a pretty remarkable career in Hollywood. Though his movie-star looks made him an easy choice to be the next big heartthrob, Depp steered away from those roles early in his career, taking on more unusual projects. That penchant for daring choices surprisingly made him one of the biggest movie stars in the world. Though behind-the scenes-drama has led to Depp’s career faltering in recent years, he has created many fun and eccentric characters over the years through unusual costumes, voices, and mannerisms....

Director of Joker Todd Phillips was inspired to upload pictures of himself and lead actor Joaquin Phoenix after watching Phoenix accept his Oscar for the role. Joker stirred up a lot of controversy and mixed reactions. Some viewers were put off by the gun violence that shook them to their core in a much more realistic way than superpower-based violence. Others applauded the movie for tackling the serious issues around guns and what happens when they end up in the wrong hands....

Kanye West disses Dancing with the Stars in his new album’s song lyrics. This controversy is especially humorous considering his wife Kim and her brother have competed on the show in past seasons. West has never shied away from controversy, but his new comments have attracted the ire of one community that seemed impervious to rap beef: the ballroom dancing crowd. The 42-year-old rapper, who has performed to sold-out audiences at the Coachella Music and Arts Festival, is a staunch supporter of his wife and in-laws....

The iPad application Take One – Movie Clapper is a great solution for anyone into film or making movies that wants a cheap and simple way to keep track takes, which assists in keeping filmed video and audio in synchronization.

Pre-order data shows that more people have ordered the iPhone 7 Plus than the smaller 4.7-inch model. It’s the first time that the larger model has proven more popular than the regular one, with the dual camera the most likely explanation. Apple never reveals the breakdown of iPhone models ordered, but Slice Intelligence has a huge panel of U.S. shoppers who agree to allow the company to roboscan their emails for purchase receipts and report the data....

While the new iPhone will likely not share the stage with a smaller iPad at next week’s Apple event (the smaller iPad is rumored to be launching in October), a string of new iPods will likely be present. Details on the changes coming in these new iPods are currently scarce, but we believe that there will be at least two new/updated iPod lines and possibly a third. All these new lines will come in multiple colors, one of the lines will come in two size capacities, and the other two lines will come in a single storage capacity....

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....

After settling its legal fight with Qualcomm last year and securing a 5G chip supply for its 2020 iPhones, things seemed to be looking up for Apple bringing the next-gen cellular standard to its iPhone 12 lineup. However, a new report today says that Apple isn’t satisfied with Qualcomm’s antenna designed to work with its 5G chips and that it may make its own… for this fall’s iPhones.

A Weibo blogger has shown photos of what are claimed to be iPhone 12 notches and screens, specifically of the 5.4-inch model. The display panels appear to be in racks prior to assembly into their casings … As with many such images, it’s hard to assess whether they are what they claim. The overall edge-to-edge design and notch shape and size are a good match, but this is now an increasingly common smartphone design....

iPhone 12 Pro orders are now slipping into late November and early December. Apple was reportedly taken by surprise by demand levels for the more expensive of the two models which went on sale last month.
