Gmail for iOS has today been refreshed to support the 2018 iPad Pros and their bezel-light, rounded displays. The 2018 iPad Pro launched back in November with a new form factor including an 11-inch option as well as a 12.9-inch offering, both with minimal bezels and no Home button. As is often the case, Google was a bit slow on updating its apps for the new display and has just today updated Gmail for iOS for the new screens....
The Golden Globes 2019 kicked off awards season with some big surprises and some very weird wins. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association is an oft-mocked organization who have managed to insert themselves into the Oscar conversation through sheer will and good timing alone. A group with around 90 members, all of whom are journalists and photographers who report on the entertainment industry for non-American media, the HFPA are widely derided for their hunger for fame and questionable decisions....
Even after almost thirty years, Martin Scorsese’s classic, Goodfellas, remains one of the most rewatchable films ever. The goal of the film was to showcase the true reality of the mafia life, where these guys aren’t the heroes they’ve been portrayed like in the past. The story of Henry Hill, a former gangster turned informant, gave viewers an unflinching look at how dangerous this life can be, despite them looking like kings....
AAPL stock has been in the news a lot lately, whether it comes to Warren Buffett’s opinion on buy-backs, the issue of preferred stock, or even its teetering market cap, but a closer look at the company’s NASDAQ fluctuation over the last year oddly shows a parallel to GOOG. The graph above illustrates both Apple and Google’s highs and lows since September 2012, and, for the most part, they clearly mirror each other....
Google is promising to release more than 10 timed-exclusive games for Stadia, the company’s beleaguered cloud gaming service, by July of this year. There is only one timed exclusive on Stadia at the time of this writing, and that is Tequila Works’ Gylt, which Screen Rant didn’t think very highly of. Prior to the launch of the service, Google spent months hyping up Stadia with claims of superior multiplayer and downplaying any concerns that consumers and journalists had....

James McAvoy’s acting chops will be pushed even further in Glass as he’ll play 21 different personalities. M. Night Shyamalan shocked audiences last year when Split came to a close and was revealed to take place in the same universe as Unbreakable. The revelation soon came to fruition with Universal announcing that the two films will crossover in a true sequel. Glass is coming out next year and the hype is starting with the release of the first trailer at SDCC....
Godzilla vs. Kong may get delayed from its March release date to later in 2020. The upcoming MonsterVerse crossover event was actually originally supposed to release on May 22, 2020, but was moved up to March 13, presumably to avoid competition with Fast & Furious 9. Godzilla vs. Kong serves as a sequel to Godzilla: King of the Monsters and Kong: Skull Island. Not too much has been revealed about the story, but a plot synopsis was released....
Google just bought the company behind a smartphone app called Word Lens that visually translates text in real life scenarios right on your device using the camera and some behind-the-scenes intelligence. The kicker? Word Lens was recently featured rather prominently in Apple’s latest iPhone ad “Powerful” and even listed on Apple’s microsite promoting the film as an app to explore. Google, of course, offers a lot of apps on the iOS platform (36 alone if you just look at iPhone) so there’s no reason to suspect Google will remove the app from the App Store as Apple would likely do if it were to purchase the software (based on previous buys like Siri)....
Google announced today on its Google Maps blog that it’s finally tapping into the talent and technology it picked up with its acquisition of Waze back in June by integrating real time incident reports from Waze into Google Maps. The new integration means that when Waze users report incidents for everything from accidents to road closures, Google Maps users on both iOS and Android will now be able to benefit:...
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5z0Ia5jDt4] Creator of Apple’s “Get a Mac” ad campaign, Scott Trattner, is leaving his role as executive creative director at TBWA/Media Arts Lab. He was responsible for the creative development of many Apple product ads from the iPod, iPhone and iPad to Mac, iTunes and iCloud. According to Ad Age, after years of focusing mostly on Apple campaigns at TBWA/Media Arts Lab, Trattner will take a new role at 72andSunny to work as one of three creative directors with clients, including Samsung, Xbox 360, Hewlett-Packard, Activision and Nike....
After being leapfrogged by other popular streaming set-top boxes, Apple this year officially released the Apple TV 4K. With support for 4K HDR, the new Apple TV is now the perfect device for the center of any home theater setup, especially for those who are deep in the Apple ecosystem. Buying for a tech enthusiast can be hard, but we’re hoping that this roundup of some of the best home theater gear can help give you some ideas....
After many months of anticipation, today finally saw the release of Netflix’s heavily hyped revival of Gilmore Girls, subtitled A Year in the Life. Unlike the usual 13-episode season structure of most Netflix original series, A Year in the Life encompasses 4 episodes that each run about 90 minutes in length, with each episode set during and named after one season of the titular year. With family bonds playing such an essential role in Gilmore’s story, it makes perfect sense that Netflix would opt to put the revival out there just in time for the holiday season....
With the release of Glass, M. Night Shyamalan has finally completed the alternative superhero movie trilogy he started 19 years ago with Unbreakable, and Screen Rant’s Ryan George is here to reveal how the pitch meeting (probably) went down. Though he’s had a career of ups and downs, Shyamalan recently made a bit of a comeback with two solidly good movies: The Visit, in which two kids go to stay with the maternal grandparents they’ve never met; and Split, in which three girls are kidnapped by a man with dissociative identity disorder, who is planning to sacrificing them to a terrifying new personality called The Beast....
Google just updated the Gmail iOS app with a number of new features. Perhaps the most notable is that Notification Center support provides users with banners, alerts, and lock screen notification options that are manageable from settings. Google also noted on the Official Gmail Blog that notifications in the updated app are “up to 5x faster than in the previous version.” Another new feature is a “From:” option when composing a new message....
God’s Trigger is an outrageous and chaotic top-down shooter with a robust co-operative mode and plenty enough action to cover up its clunkier moments. The apocalypse has always been a great source of inspiration for video games. Whether the Biblical destruction of Darksiders or the dark world of The Last of Us, the end of the world has come in many shapes and sizes. The latest game to dive into this theme is God’s Trigger from developer One More Level....
Another day, another dummy. We’ve recently obtained new images showing what appears to be a gold iPhone 6 mockup pictured next to the other two color variations that Apple currently offers. As mentioned, this is definitely a dummy model, but it’s also the first time we’ve seen a gold one. The camera cutout on the lighter colored models look a little but strange, but again these are dummy units and we don’t expect them to perfectly reflect the actual design....
We are in that part of the year where we witness the launch of Google’s new Android Operating System. The launch is expected to be in August but, as always rumors and leaks have started to surface. Previously, a while back, it was reported by Cnet.com that, the company is finding it hard to name the new version of the Android OS. The reason being no dessert name is popular that starts with the letter Q....

Going to the cinema these days, the odds are that the biggest grossing films will be the ones that involve superheroes, are sequels (or trilogies), or in some cases, are reboots/remakes. Though reboots and remakes often face harsh criticism from potential audiences, the fact of the matter is that these types of films are becoming an increasingly less common aspect of the Hollywood arsenal. The truth is that audiences often forget how both the reboot and the remake have always been a part of Hollywood filmmaking....
