An hour into Xbox’s E3 2019 presentation where they hosted 60 games came the world premiere of Microsoft Flight Simulator, an all-new installment in Microsoft’s longest-running and iconic franchise. Captured in real-time and in 4K, the stunning trailer teased how the next game uses satellite technology and Azure AI to create the most ambitious flight sim ever, and one that’s coming to Xbox as well as PC, but not right away....
Nobody does animated films like Disney, so it’s tempting to think that their most classic stories wound up exactly the way the writers, directors and animators expected. But fans may never know what beloved characters, songs, and storylines wound up on the cutting room floor. Missed opportunities or dodged bullets, fans will want to see for themselves. Here are Screen Rant’s Disney Movie Scenes You’ve Never Seen. Lilo & Stitch Disney’s story of an alien bringing two sisters closer together had a playful sense of humor from the very start, so even when the film’s climax had the cast flying an alien spaceship in a death defying chase, it wasn’t meant to be taken seriously....
Chris Hardwick’s brand continues its devaluation following abuse allegations by cosplayer and actress Chloe Dykstra. While the Nerdist creator and former host of @Midnight has responded to these claims, his professional partnerships have speedily sought severance and distance to Hardwick as news of his alleged treatment of Dykstra circulates, now culminating in an interruption of the AMC television talk show Talking with Chris Hardwick and cancellation of his scheduled panels at San Diego Comic-Con....
The upcoming weekly show for All Elite Wrestling, soon to premiere on TNT, gets a new name and a new poster. The reveal of the new name comes just as the wrestling promotion is set to make its mark on Wednesday nights. AEW was first conceived as a bit of a dare. Wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer remarked that Ring of Honor, a veteran independent wrestling promotion, could not sell ten thousand tickets for an event....
A twenty-five year gap may be longer than usual for a spiritual follow-up, but the kaleidoscopic ride through MARVEL, the new anthology series delivered by Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross, feels well worth the wait. Loaded with creative flourish, the first issue delivers three bold stories from diverse and talented creative teams. When blended together, it’s a result greater than the sum of its parts in a psychedelic spin echoing Gaiman’s Sandman....
In this article, I’ll share my collection of shortcuts I gathered in past few years in order to save time, and now … yours! I hope you’ll find it useful.

Another prologue video has been released for Alien: Covenant, connecting directly to the conclusion of Prometheus. In Covenant, the crew of a colony ship finds what they believe to be a pristine planet upon which they can establish a new home-world for humanity. They soon find out that the planet already has several interesting inhabitants, including the android David, who was last seen at the end of Prometheus leaving LV-223 with Elizabeth Shaw, in search of the Engineers’ planet....
In 2017, director Neill Blomkamp of District 9 fame teased some concept art and ideas for a proposed Alien 5 which ended up being canceled, but there were interesting story ideas proposed that are worth exploring. The Alien franchise, while relatively slim in entries, has had its ups and downs along with periods of inactivity. Ridley Scott’s Alien is considered one of the greatest sci-fi/horror movies ever made, with James Cameron’s Aliens also getting a lot of praise despite taking the series in a more action-oriented direction....
Now that it’s been in theaters for a couple of weeks, Alita: Battle Angel looks like it will prove the doubters wrong and become a sizable box office hit. Live-action manga adaptations haven’t had much success critically or commercially over the years, with 2017’s Ghost in the Shell being a recent example. Despite having a top notch creative team of producer James Cameron and director Robert Rodriguez, many were convinced Alita would follow suit and ultimately be a disappointment....

Inside the device is powered by a new octa-core processor. It also has dual stereo speakers for clear and balanced sound. The updated camera automatically pans and zooms while on a video call. This makes sure everyone is centered in the frame....
The first trailer is here for Ridley Scott’s true story-based kidnapping drama, All the Money in the World. Scott is known as one of the most versatile and visual directors working today, not to mention prolific. This year alone, he has already released the Prometheus sequel (or, if you prefer, Alien prequel) Alien: Covenant and produced this October’s long-awaited sci-fi sequel, Blade Runner 2049. The 79-year-old filmmaker has no intention of slowing down or passing up challenging subject matter anytime soon, either....
Last summer award-winning developer Snowman brought its hit Alto’s Odyssey to Apple Arcade. But much more than a port of the original, it arrived as Alto’s Odyssey: The Lost City with a new biome, adventures, and mechanics. Now Snowman has a remastered expansion of the original in the series with Alto’s Adventure: The Spirit of the Mountain now available on Apple Arcade. Along with enjoying all the mesmerizing original aspects of the game, The Spirit of the Mountain Apple Arcade remaster features “the heart of the Mountain” where players will explore “never before seen set pieces, revealing the mysterious Pitu, a brand new playable character along the way....
Cryptocurrency and digital token scams have become a common threat facing investors and the general public today. Even though regulators worldwide are clamping down on fraud – through tax legislation, securities offering registration, tighter rules surrounding cryptocurrency adverts, and by keeping a close eye on initial coin offerings (ICOs), exit scams, rug pulls, and theft is still rampant. Interest in cryptocurrency – and now NFTs – continues to escalate, providing a breeding ground for new scams to appear on a daily basis....

Also: When is Prime Day 2020? Everything we know so far “Imagine asking Alexa to turn on the light, and there’s a slight delay,” she explained. “Our team worked really hard to shave off hundreds of milliseconds” in Alexa’s response time. The new devices include a new AZ1 neural edge processor – a new silicon module purpose-built to run machine learning algorithms on the edge. It works with new neural speech recognition models that run on the AZ1....
Aliens’ conniving corporate stooge Carter Burke is one of the most hated characters in the franchise, and a deleted scene gave him what he deserved. It’s rare that a sequel is so good that many fans consider it to be better than the original film, but director James Cameron’s 1986 sci-fi/horror classic Aliens is one such follow-up. That’s not to say it’s universally seen as better than Ridley Scott’s Alien, but it’s at the very least on the same level of quality, while also providing a very different experience....
Over recent years, mesh Wi-Fi systems have become incredibly popular. Options like eero and Google Wi-Fi are generally consumer-friendly in terms of ease-of-use and setup. They both feature slick iOS apps and are easy to manage on a day-to-day basis, but they are far from perfect. Eero’s privacy policy currently says it collects data for optimizing Wi-Fi performance, usage data, crash reports, and other performance details. — Geoffrey A.

Sometimes this is convenient, but you might want to remove certain items. From the home screen, go to the Recent items section and scroll to the item you want to remove. Then underneath the thumbnail of the app or video, select Remove from Recent. You can mirror your Fire HDX to select TVs, but there’s not a lot of them....

Low Tide, the first feature film effort from writer and director Kevin McMullin, will be out in theaters October 4. The story of teenage boys on a treasure hunt in the summer provides a whole new outlook on Jersey Shore, as the carefree thrills soon turn more chilling than expected. Two of the boys, Red and Smitty, are a particularly nasty brand of bullies and help push the narrative to a darker place....
