We’re watching a dizzying array of App announcements as new software hits the all-new Mac App Store, but here’s a special something from the team at Boxee, who are showing off their new Boxee iPad App at CES. Here’s what Boxee (who today announced a new deal to offer video from CBS via their devices) had to say on the new app: “While not ready to launch, we’re giving people at CES a sneak peek at Boxee for the iPad this week....
[SPOILERS for Captain America: Civil War ahead] - Marvel Studios’ Phase 3 has officially begun now that Captain America: Civil War has been released. The third Captain America movie has two of the franchise’s biggest heroes face off against each other: Captain America and Iron Man. Although the movie takes some elements from Mark Millar’s crossover series Civil War, there were many details that were changed or erased completely during the jump from the pages to the big screen....
Marvel is currently gearing up for the release of Captain America: Civil War in the U.S., which is only days away at the time of this writing, and officially launching Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe - the massive shared superhero universe that spans almost a dozen films, and a number of television series on ABC and Netflix. Though it is ostensibly the third installment of the Captain America (Chris Evans) trilogy, Civil War also includes a number of characters introduced elsewhere in the MCU, such as Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr....
Every character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe has a clear-cut, multi-film arc. Captain Marvel’s arc has been a little more disjointed than the others so far, due to her solo movie introducing the character and her supporting cast way back in the ‘90s and her following MCU outing, Avengers: Endgame, being set in the present day. There are two decades that aren’t accounted for. But Carol Danvers’ arc is still young, and Marvel could have some interesting developments in store for future movies....
The latest photos from the set of Captain Marvel show the construction of an aircraft crash site and promise more footage and images to come from the 2019 Marvel movie. Though Avengers: Infinity War didn’t introduce Carol Danvers to the MCU as some speculated it would, the post-credits scene teased her arrival. With Ant-Man 2 and Captain Marvel set before Avengers 3, there’s no telling how the next two Marvel Studios films will play into Avengers 4....
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is again investigating the collection and use of carrier location data – the information mobile networks have about where your mobile devices are, as well as your movement patterns. It follows a previous investigation which last year found that wireless carriers broke federal law by selling this private data to a number of third-party companies … Background Simply carrying your iPhone or other cellular-connected device like an Apple Watch or iPad is enough to tell your mobile carrier where you are....
After all, our car should be the biggest gadget that we have, right? Then it only makes sense for it to be smart, too. But until the car-makers themselves take the next step, it’s the smart engineers out there who come up with various ideas. Carvi is one of them, a smart driving assistant made from a smart dashboard camera and your own smartphone. The device uses vision based safety features to gather data from your smartphone and a single lens camera that’s installed on the car....

Chamet Mod APK is just a modified version of the official app that has no restrictions, in-app purchases, and limitations. The developer tweaks so much that you get premium features for free such as unlimited diamonds, coins, free video calls, and more.

Catwoman has faced off against some of the toughest villains in all of DC Comics. Selina Kyle has taken on Bane, Black Mask, Cheetah, the Penguin and more - and that’s without mentioning the heroes she went toe-to-toe with. However, one of Catwoman’s upcoming villains is perhaps her most messed up yet - an exotic cat taxidermist. DC is celebrating Catwoman’s 80th anniversary with a one-shot anthology featuring stories from some of the character’s most notable writers and artists....
The hype and anticipation surrounding the release of the first Phase 3 film in the ever expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe couldn’t be any higher than it is today, which marked the U.S. theatrical debut of Captain America: Civil War.

The time has come for Hugh Jackman to step aside, and let a new Wolverine join the Marvel movie universe. The producers of the X-Men series are leaving the door open to one day having Hugh Jackman play an old Logan, but with Marvel soon acquiring the rights to their comic book mutants, recasting a new, younger Wolverine is next… and we’ve got some actors in mind for the role....
The first season of Hulu’s ambitious Stephen King universe anthology, Castle Rock, ran afoul of its surfeit of ideas and general lack of narrative direction. That combination resulted in a mostly incoherent season of television that was nevertheless anchored by strong performances from André Holland, Sissy Spacek, Scott Glenn, and Bill Skarsgård. Though it meandered and struggled to find a consistent pace or balance between its universe-building aspirations and its more fan-focused inclusion of go-nowhere Easter eggs, the season worked as a proof of concept, if not much else....
Today, the Consumer Electronics Association announced that it will be using Apple’s new iBeacon technology to host a unique scavenger hunt of sorts at its International CES event scheduled for next week.

Find the Apps When you can, go with simple. Some of the most popular titles in the App Store already allow you to change the icon design. Among these are Instagram, MLB, CARROT Weather, Tinder, and more. Sometimes, unfortunately, free apps (I’m looking at you, Overcast and Bear) require a membership to unlock the option. In the following two examples, you can see icon changes for CARROT Weather and MLB, respectively:...
Head of Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige, has been explaining why he chose Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck to direct Captain Marvel. The appointment of Boden and Fleck to helm Marvel’s first female-led superhero movie came as a surprise to many, not least because amid all the speculation over who might direct, Boden and Fleck’s names hadn’t come up at all. Boden and Fleck have worked together consistently, and are perhaps best-known for their indie flicks, Half Nelson (which earned Ryan Gosling an Oscar nomination), and Mississippi Grind, starring Ryan Reynolds and Ben Mendelsohn....
