Marvel Studios' Avengers: Infinity War Official Trailer

Image
If you’re merely a casual fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the arrival of the first trailer for Avengers: Infinity War might not seem like a huge deal: After all, pretty much every Marvel movie now feels like an Avengers movie, with the team’s various heroes playing crucial supporting roles in such recent hits as Captain America: Civil War, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Thor: Ragnarok. What began as a winking, post-credits tease in 2008’s Iron Man “I’m here to talk to you about the Avenger initiative” has become the series’ hours-long, deeply threaded mega-narrative, full of Infinity Stones and intra-squad squabbling, and populated by dozens of characters. At this point, even the Watcher needs Wikipedia to keep up. But Infinity War is the MCU’s biggest gambit yet (and, strictly speaking, its only one), the first part of a reckoning/realignment that will eventually lead to Marvel’s much-discussed “Phase 4,” emphasizing a different squad of heroes and villains. With some of the series...

The New Mercedes-Benz A-Class interior revealed

Image
Mercedes has revealed the interior layout and design for its yet-to-debut A-Class. The next Benz A-Class will have a minimalistic cabin with few ‘lines’ as not to ‘clutter’ what Mercedes hopes its customers will see as an “avant-garde” design. Much like the ‘Concept A’ revealed by Mercedes-Benz during the Shanghai Motor Show, the interior is quite a departure from the current generation of Mercedes design. Controls are primarily on the steering wheel, with touch screens taking over from what looks be everything else besides the climate controls. However, a trackpad and some drive mode controls remain on the centre console. ‘Turbine’ A/C vents are the most prominent features to depart from the dash’s surface, aside from the new flat-screen instrument cluster which has no cowl above it. Mercedes-Benz head of interior design Hartmut Sinkwitz says the new A-Class cabin is intended to provide the compact segment with a luxury feel it has been lacking. 2018 Mercedes-Benz A-clas...

John Legend and Chrissy Teigen Expecting Second Child

Image
You better grab hold of something or take a seat because Chrissy Teigen just announced she's having a second child. The model took to Instagram to disclose the news technically, Luna spilled the tea. Chrissy Teigen's pregnancy news broke on Nov. 21 with the cutest video. Since Chrissy Teigen and John Legend's daughter, Luna, is a pivotal part of their lives (and our social media accounts) it only makes sense that she told fans the exciting news. In the video posted on the model's Instagram account, Teigen and Luna are cuddling on the couch. Teigen then asks, "Luna, what's in here?" Luna responds with, "Baby!" Teigen is known for her sense of humor on social media (if you don't follow her on Twitter honey, what is you doing?), and didn't disappoint with the caption, "it's john's!" on her baby news. Perhaps the funniest part is John Legend's response. He commented on the picture and said, "Maury will have the fina...

Harley Quinn animated series slated for DC's streaming service

Image
After an appearance in David Ayer’s Suicide Squad last year, DC fan favorite Harley Quinn will be returning to her roots in her own 26-episode animated series. The currently untitled show will be featured exclusively on the digital streaming service DC is launching next year. That makes it the third series announced thus far, alongside the live-action show Titans, and the animated Young Justice: Outsiders. The series will be headed by Justin Halpern, Patrick Schumacker, and Dean Lorey, who previously collaborated on DC’s superhero comedy Powerless. The new Harley Quinn series will be loosely inspired by the current comics, where the character has cut ties with the Joker and is roughing it in Gotham City alongside her bestie Poison Ivy and other familiar DC characters. Over the last four years, Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner have given Quinn a more independent vibe in the comics, far from the character’s origins as the Joker’s sidekick in Batman: The Animated Series. (Conner ac...

Watch: Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson on Rampage Official Movie Trailer

Image
The trailer for Rampage has landed, and it looks deliciously absurd. Based on the 1986 arcade game, Rampage follows Davis Okoye, a primatologist played by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, as he deals with an outbreak of Kong-sized monsters. Primatologist Davis Okoye (Johnson), a man who keeps people at a distance, shares an unshakable bond with George, the extraordinarily intelligent, Silverback Gorilla who has been in his care since birth. But a rogue genetic experiment gone awry mutates this gentle ape into a raging creature of enormous size. As these newly created alpha predators tear across North America, destroying everything in their path, Okoye teams with a discredited genetic engineer to secure an antidote, fighting his way through an ever-changing battlefield, not only to halt a global catastrophe but to save the fearsome creature that was once his friend. Players familiar with the original game will be happy to see that all three monsters Lizzie the croc, George the goril...

Razer launches neon green Hammerhead USB-C earbuds

Image
It's hard to find USB-C earbuds despite so many Android phones including Google’s Pixel 2 devices and the Razer Phone making a switch to the new connector while getting rid of the 3.5mm headphone jack. Fortunately, there’s a new pair of USB-C buds just released called the Razer Hammerhead USB-C. They’re made to match the Razer Phone, but you can easily plug them into any other device that has a USB-C jack. The earbuds are fitted with 10-mm drivers and acoustic chambers to deliver “deep, distortion-free bass,” according to the company. Razer’s earbuds include an in-line remote and mic along a flat cable that should help reduce tangles. They’re also magnetic, so you can snap them together when not in use. The main problem with the earphones is the fact that they're a garish neon green and black color, which fits with the Razer aesthetic favored by gamers and few others. The Razer Hammerhead earbuds come with a custom carry case and are available for $79.99 from the Raz...

The wolves singer, who is reportedly back with ex-boyfriend justin bieber, put on a sizzling display at the popular awards ceremony where she flashed her knickers to the camera as she debuted her new single. The starlet rocked her newly-blonde hairstyle as she launched herself onto the stage in a sexy white gown, thrilling fans with a sexy performance where she rolled around on the ground seductively in front of the nation. The sexy garment was so short, that selena could do nothing to help the slight wardrobe malfunction as she showed the audience her undergarments. She appeared with cuts on her knees and forehead for the theme of the song, which was set after a car crash in a red ford mustang. Just weeks ago, on september 14, selena announced she had undergone a kidney transplant from her best friend. The singer had been laying low for months, ...
