Thanks to some strong work by Smith and its better set pieces, Gemini Man partly succeeds at overcoming its bland plot and occasionally iffy visuals. Out of all the previous entries in Ang Lee’s eclectic filmography, his newest movie, Gemini Man, hews the closest to his 2003 comic book adaptation Hulk. Both are based on inherently goofy sci-fi premises, feature gifted protagonists with daddy issues, and are hit-and-miss when it comes to their cutting-edge technical elements....

And by unique, we mean explosive. Made with actual gunpowder, the creation process was a sight to behold and you can watch that video here or below....

Put plainly, Glui is a screenshot and annotation tool; a utilitarian application. It does not evoke charm, but it doesn’t really need to. What Glui does need to offer is a functional yet efficient workflow and, on this front, it delivers. In use, I never feel like the app is getting in my way. The activation shortcuts are bound to Shift+Cmd+5 and Shift+Cmd+6 by default to match OS X’s native screenshot shortcuts....

While Google claims this is private and enhances searches, I find it annoying and so does Twitter.

Google reportedly poached an Apple employee to hire on its own staff. VentureBeat reported that Google hired Apple’s (now former) Senior Director of Product Integrity Simon Prakash for a secret project, where he would work perhaps alongside Google’s cofounder Sergey Brin.

Prakash worked at Apple for over eight years, and was responsible for the product quality across Apple’s products—from iPhones to Macs....

Once a MacBook’s battery has reached a certain cycle count limit, it is considered consumed and Apple recommends replacing the battery, although you can continue using it (but expect decreased performance)....

Charles Dance’s Godzilla: King of the Monsters character just became infinitely more menacing, thanks to a newly released audio outtake. The film was a direct sequel to 2014’s Godzilla and the third installment of Legendary’s MonsterVerse franchise, following Kong: Skull Island. Despite its impressive cast and praise for the visual effects, cinematography, and action sequences, the clash of these particular Titans was largely deemed forgettable and failed to land a solid blow at the box office....

Will Smith plays an aging hitman who faces off with his younger clone in the trailer for Ang Lee’s sci-fi film, Gemini Man. The project has been in some stage of development since 1997 and, at one point, was slated to be directed by the late Tony Scott. Several other writers and filmmakers have worked on Gemini Man since then, but the script’s never really been the problem. Rather, the real issue was always the technology needed to create a realistic young CGI clone of the main actor....

Lorelai Gilmore is considered by many to be the greatest mom on TV. While she’s more famous for her coffee obsession than for her fashion sense, she definitely wears some interesting outfits over the seven seasons of Gilmore Girls (plus the four episodes of the Netflix revival).
