Apple awarded patent that could stop texting in theaters. Maybe. Odd.
On one hand, this is a pretty radical concept. Preventing people form texting in theaters! Huzzah! On the other hand, what about emergency calls from your loved ones? There is that weird line between being helpfully connected, and hopelessly inundated with the data stream.
Square Enix launches COREONLINE, a new cloud gaming service. Why?
Square Enix likes to laugh at us after farting a sugary dollop of turd on our tongue. This is evident. They could be doing so many fruitful things, but instead they’re making Final Fantasy XIII-3: Lightning Knickers and launching cloud gaming services. It is evident there are no fucks given around those headquarters.
Researchers grow HUMAN TISSUE around nanowires and transistors. CYBORG FLESH, ya’ll.
Isn’t much time until Caprica Six is launching nuclear strikes and boning wily, narcissistic scientists. Researchers have found a way to grow human flesh around all sorts of technology. We’re talking nanowires! Pow! We’re talking transistors! Pow! The future isn’t arriving, it is here. Eating out of your refrigerator and casting uncomfortable looks at your Mom’s legs.
Superman and Lois may NEVER date now? Oh New 52. You Funny.
Doesn’t matter that it has been nearly a year, the New 52 continues to entertain. You know, with its opaque canon. With its head-scratching decisions. One of those decisions being to send the DCU’s trajectory full Kingdom Come.
ABC greenlights JOSS WHEDON-powered ‘S.H.I.E.L.D’ TV series. F**k yes.
Fuck yeah. I didn’t see this coming out of the Joss Whedon deal with the Marvel Monolith. At all. The good sir has received the greenlight to rock out on a S.H.I.E.L.D. television series. This is…weird. But awesome.
Rumor: New Batman is totally appearing in ‘JUSTICE LEAGUE’ movie before own film. Oh boy.
Woe be to the guy or gal who has to reboot Batman after Christ Nolan just rocked it out of the park for the past seven years. The latest rumor is that the rebooted Batman won’t make an appearance in his own flick until after the Justice League movie.
Video: ‘THE AVENGERS’ alternate opening. I’m glad they didn’t use it.
In an effort to promote The Avengers Blu-Ray release by giving away for free everything that would make us want it, Marvel has dropped a alternate opening to the flick. Regardless of whether or not it is well done, it certainly butts heads with the tone of the rest of the flick.
‘CHINESE ZODIAC’ TEASER TRAILER: Jackie Chan in a rollerblading suit. What the f**k, yes.
I hadn’t even heard of this shit until today, and now my mind is blown. Jackie Chan is all done up in a fucking rollerblading suit in the trailer for Chinese Zodiac. A film, which if it is anything like its teaser trailer, will be of the utmost amazing ridiculousness.

Affleck ain’t directing ‘JUSTICE LEAGUE’, but WACHOWSKIS are now rumored.
Ben Affleck isn’t doing the Justice League movie. He shot down those rumors, informing everyone that it was “way too hahd” before putting on his Red Sox hat and driving to Fenway Pahk. (I can make these jokes, I’m a Bostonian. No, I don’t care that they’re not funny.) Now Warner Bros. is casting their eyes at the Wachowskis and batting them innocently.
