Robert Pattinson reveals he met with Marvel Studios to discuss a possible role, but decided he didn’t want to jump to another franchise so soon after Twilight. Pattinson, of course, rose to stardom portraying Edward Cullen in the Twilight films, becoming an international heartthrob in the process. When that series concluded in 2012, Pattinson went down a very different path, working with a variety of indie directors on films such as Good Time and The Lost City of Z....

I have a bit of a love-hate relationship with cases for iDevices. My general view is that we pay a lot of money for a beautifully-designed device, so it seems a great shame to hide them away inside a case. On the other hand, there are some cases that are beautiful in themselves. For example, my iPhone 6 lived in a Mujjo Leather Wallet Case most of the time. That was mostly, though, for the convenience of being able to carry a couple of cards with me when I wanted to go out without my wallet....

In recent years, there’s been a huge rise in people buying and using streaming sticks in their homes. It allows people to watch Netflix and other streaming services on the big screen instead of exclusively watching on their computer or tablet. There are a variety of different brands and types of streaming devices out there, so looking to buy one can get complicated if you’re not sure exactly what you’re looking for....

Rotten Tomatoes finally made some adjustments to its rating system to respond to fan abuse, but it’s made the system even worse than before. Rotten Tomatoes has long been a source of controversy in some circles due to the way its scoring system favors certain types of movies and misrepresents the actual review scores of most films, but more recently fans have started to weaponize the audience rating systems and Rotten Tomatoes’ new change only hurts things....

As a result of a supply shortage, new automobile sales in Australia fell in October. Despite large portions of the country being released from Covid-19-induced lockdown, just 74,650 new cars were sold in October, a decline of more than 8% from the same month in 2020. The drop in sales is due to a supply shortage caused by a lack of semiconductors, a critical component in modern vehicles. After a disastrous year in 2020, the new car market is set to surpass one million sales in 2021 for the first time since 2009....

Conversion apps feel like a design playground, with so much potential for uniqueness and variety in their interfaces. The trend has been towards multifunction, multi-purpose Swiss-army knife apps that attempt to cover a whole range of disparate measurements. In my experience, as a result of racing to add one more ratio to their feature list, the simplicity of these apps suffer. Currency sidesteps this battleground entirely and, as the name implies, focuses solely on converting amounts of money....

Readdle’s app Documents has long been one of the most complete solutions for managing your files on the go. With an intuitive interface and powerful download management features, it has been a solid contender in the file management app arena for some time.

While the tech industry is still in the middle of a transition to USB-C, it can be easy to wind up with lots of various charging bricks and adapters. Leviton’s Type A & Type C USB Charger/Receptacle caught our eye as a way to simplify our digital lives, so we went hands-on with the handy wall outlet. Between fast charging with a USB-C to Lightning cable, the mix of USB-C supported accessories, and the likelihood this year’s iPhones will ship with a USB-C power adapter, the new standard is slowly but surely expanding beyond devices like Apple’s MacBook and MacBook Pro....

I tend to like my headphone designs much like my audio quality: neutral. But if you prefer something a little more visually interesting, you will often find yourself being forced to choose between audio quality and looks. That’s a problem V-Moda set out to solve with its Crossfade 2 Wireless Codex Edition headphones … We’ll get into the audio quality shortly – for now I’ll just say that the brand is much favored by DJs, and while the tuning isn’t absolutely to my taste, they deliver a solid performance....

A reviewer managed to fool the ‘attention check’ performed by Face ID on the iPhone X, which is intended to ensure that you are looking at the phone. It did, however, require a very unusual combination of circumstances … A colleague of Gizmodo’s Alex Cranz was able to successfully unlock the phone using her face while she had her eyes closed, pretending to be asleep. This should only be possible if you choose to switch off attention-detection in the settings....

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker box office projections fall a bit more following the mixed reviews. Even before word-of-mouth started to spread, the film was poised to have the lowest opening weekend of the sequel trilogy, with predictions indicating a debut in the range of $175-210 million. At the time, the hope was those were just conservative estimates that would steadily increase after The Rise of Skywalker started screening and the reactions hit....

Apple Watch Series 2 hit stores on Friday and I’ve spent the weekend testing its new features. From outdoor cycling and swimming in the ocean to comparing it to the first-generation Apple Watch, I had my own list of questions I wanted answered and I’m mostly happy with my experience. I used the first-generation Apple Watch every single day since April 2015 and reviewed it in May 2015 after a couple of weeks....

The Christmas season is upon us. Sure, it’s technically over a month away, but that’s just a minor detail. So you know what that means - Christmas Sweaters. The kind grandma used to knit… although a bit nerdier. Merchoid has the best selection of knitted Christmas sweaters around for fans of all the best franchises. We’ll list our top picks, but don’t let that stop you from searching their entire selection - it’s a bit daunting....

UPDATE: Joel Kulina, the Wedbush Securities analyst quoted by MarketWatch, has since refuted the quote, saying it was misquoted in a follow-up inquiry from GameSpot. Kulina stated “there is nothing to this story that I’ve seen,” debunking the rumor. The original story follows. Just a day after Microsoft confirmed it would be bringing one of its most treasured IPs to Steam, new rumors have emerged that suggest Sony could be fairly close to acquiring Take-Two Interactive....

Feral Interactive has announced that it is porting the strategy game Rome: Total War – Alexander from Windows to the iPad sometime this summer. The iPad version of the original Rome: Total War – Alexander game is already available, alongside Barbarian Invasion … The Windows version was developed by Creative Assembly some 15 years ago, and became one of the most successful PC games of all time. Alexander is set a century before its predecessor....

What’s in the Box? Simple Set Up Echo’s audio instructions will tell you to press and hold the blue set up button on the back of Echo Wall Clock for about ten seconds, then the Echo Wall Clock starts paring. You can confirm that the process is working with the colored status light on the face of the clock. Pulsing orange means in paring mode, then solid blue means paired successfully....

While I’ve been highly impressed with the video capabilities of recent iPhone cameras, the accompanying microphone has always left something to be desired. Recently, I found myself in need of a more professional audio solution for on the go video. Looking for an affordable, compact, and high quality option, I decided to try out the Zoom iQ7 microphone for Lightning-equipped iOS devices. Overview Zoom is no stranger to the audio market, producing a wide range of high quality microphones and field recorders for various applications....

So when’s season 3 coming out? That’s been the refrain for Rick and Morty fans from the moment the second season of the hit Adult Swim series ended back in 2015. The show inspires a rabid fanaticism in its fans with its smartly subversive humor and skewering of science fiction tropes, and it has become one of the most popular shows during Cartoon Network’s block of grown up programming in addition to becoming a sensation across the internet....

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is expected to lose the top spot at the domestic box office after three consecutive weekends. While it hasn’t been as big a hit as its sequel trilogy predecessors, The Rise of Skywalker is still another financial success for Disney, inching closer to the $1 billion mark globally. After the commercial disappointment of 2018’s Solo: A Star Wars Story (the first installment in the franchise to lose money), The Rise of Skywalker was a welcome return to form for the property at the box office, illustrating the Mouse House has the right idea keeping Star Wars in December from now on....
