Return

Back in the day, if you accidentally created a giant plot hole in your science fiction saga, you were done, your goose droid cooked, with nothing to look forward to but the prospect of future generations looking back scornfully at your ever-sullied work of cinema.But then along came Star Wars: Rogue One, a movie that somehow made sense of all the really silly bits in 1977’s Star Wars, such as the climactic sequence in which Luke Skywalker managed to blow up the Death Star in his tiny little star fighter. It turned out…

Lindsay Lohan fans have not only been cheering the return of the redhead to the rom-com genre—following the holiday film Falling for Christmas, her latest Netflix romantic comedy is the "enjoyably ridiculous" Irish Wish—but also the possibility of a Freaky Friday sequel. Lohan and her co-star Jamie Lee Curtis developed a sweet bond while making the beloved 2003 fantasy-comedy, which saw the actresses play a teen daughter and strict mother who magically switch bodies in a modern adaptation of Mary Rodgers's 1972 novel.…

The Galaxy A55 is Samsung's latest mid-range phone to promise a flagship-like experience without a flagship-like price, and in some ways, it really is the most premium mid-ranger from the Korean giant yet. From a design that includes Gorilla Glass Victus+ and a metal frame to a new Exynos chip that has a GPU based on the same AMD architecture as Samsung's high-end Exynos chips (though the A55 lacks ray tracing support) and up to 12GB of RAM, the A55 feels more of an upgrade than the A54 did compared to the A53. Testing…

In 2019 Oscar Isaac uttered the now iconic words “somehow Palpatine returned”. This is widely considered a low point in the Star Wars franchise, dialogue perhaps more embarrassing than any cheesy line George Lucas ever came up with. The Rise of Skywalker didn’t bother to explain the “somehow” and we were left with Merry Brandybuck’s mutterings about “dark science, cloning, secrets only the Sith knew”. Since then the franchise has slowly filled in the blanks. Apr. 2023’s ‘Chapter 23: The Spies’ of The Mandalorian season 3…

HMD Global has solely sold phones under the Nokia brand…

HMD moved to a multi-brand approach for its portfolio, and last month at MWC the company confirmed it has another Nokia feature phone in its pipeline. We also got the May release month and a pixelated image back then. Now a post on X gives us a clearer idea of what to expect. While no names are explicitly mentioned, it's most likely the Nokia 3210 that's getting a sequel. The image posted and the short link to the landing page for the announcement both suggest a birthday. The post was made on March…
