At $119.99, the Jabra Elite 4 Active true wireless earbuds are not exactly a budget option, but they are excellent value for money. Jabra has a lot of experience of producing personal audio kit, including sports buds, and that really shows here. My review sample was a lovely navy blue colour, but black and mint-green options are also available. The build material is a soft silicone. The buds weigh just 5g each, three sizes of gel are included, and these are nicely pliable to bend to each ear shape....

A lot of things can be said about Todd Phillips’ Joker, both good and bad, but something many viewers will agree on is that the staircase dance scene is the film’s defining moment, and marks a turning point in the protagonist’s journey. Joker took some inspiration from Alan Moore’s graphic novel The Killing Joke, as well as the moves of Martin Scorsese, but it’s mostly an original story that provides a different origin for the Clown Prince of Crime....

Reuters reports that the iPhone 5 will begin production in July and ramp up for a September release. This fits in with a lot of the chatter out there over the last few months.

Apple typically holds a fall media event at the beginning of September....

Filming Jersey Shore no longer makes Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi happy. Last week, she announced that she was stepping down from being part of the fourth season of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation (if there is one). The MTV reality series, which just celebrated it’s ten year anniversary, introduced the world to some of the finest guidos and guidettes Seaside Heights could handle. From fist-pumping to day-drinking, the Polizzi gave a whole new meaning to “I’m going to Jersey Shore, b*tch!...

The version of Bruce Wayne seen in Joker likely has a much darker future ahead of him than the legacy of Batman. Upon its debut in cinemas, Joker arrived on a wave of pre-release controversy rarely, if ever, seen by a major comic book movie. Concerns were raised that Joker’s perceived sympathy towards the actions of its title character could inspire real-life copycats, with the movie’s depiction of Joker himself seen as reminiscent of recent mass shooters....

Todd Phillips’ Joker won’t screen at the Colorado theater where a 2012 massacre happened during a showing of The Dark Knight Rises. Fabled Batman villain The Joker has become more than just a comic book character in the decades since he first appeared in DC Comics. With his new take on The Joker, writer-director Phillips is veering entirely away from established comic book canon, introducing an iteration of the character that was not inspired by any previous version....

Josh Brolin is sharing a first look – sort of – of his character Cable for Deadpool 2. The superhero movie world was all abuzz last week when 20th Century Fox announced that Brolin was cast in the coveted role of Cable in Ryan Reynold’s hotly anticipated sequel to the 2016 blockbuster Deadpool. Several big names were considered for the role – including Brad Pitt and Michael Shannon – and the casting of Brolin caught everybody by surprise since he is already playing Thanos in Disney/Marvel Studio’s MCU and will be a pivotal character in 2018’s Avengers: Infinity War....

A new report from Bloomberg today stated the U.K. Court of Appeal in London asked Apple to remove the apology to Samsung posted on its U.K. website and replace it with “a new notice acknowledging the inaccurate comments” in the next 24 hours. Earlier this month, Apple complied with U.K. court orders that forced the company to post an apology explaining Samsung did not copy the iPad’s design. The court’s issue with the apology was four extra paragraphs that Apple inserted with favorable quotes from the initial ruling that described Samsung’s tablet as “not as cool”:...
