After indicating that they were “preparing to ship” earlier this week, the first 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro pre-orders have now officially started shipping. The first orders are slated to arrive to customers on Tuesday, October 26. Meanwhile, shipping estimates for new orders placed today via the Apple Store Online continue to slip towards 2022… If you check your order status via the Apple Store Online or Apple Store app, some users are seeing that their MacBook Pro pre-order is still “preparing to ship,” while some people’s orders have already shifted to “shipped....

Apple Watch Series 7 was announced in September along with iPhone 13 and iPad mini 6. However, while those products were already available in stores since last month, pre-orders of the new Apple Watch only began on October 8. Now customers are finally having their Apple Watch Series 7 orders delivered. The official launch of the Apple Watch Series 7 is set for Friday, October 15. As it is already Friday in some countries, customers are already sharing photos of their brand-new Apple Watch Series 7 on social networks....

Princess Diana may have launched as a part of the World War II efforts, but she rapidly evolved into so much more. From her early era of literally escaping bondage (not creepy at all) and subverting the ‘damsel in distress’ motif, Wonder Woman has grown into as a feminist icon, admired by women and men of all ages. Most importantly, she’s an incredibly powerful and just superhero whose story is rooted firmly in its human elements, which became a whole lot more representative since DC’s “Rebirth" origin story....

Jon Snow’s death may have been teased in the latest Game of Thrones season 8 teaser trailer. For quite some time now, it’s been known that Kit Harington’s Jon Snow will play an integral role to the end of Game of Thrones, not to mention the conclusion of the war with the White Walkers. Ever since the start of the series, Jon Snow has been at the forefront of the battle with the White Walkers, even though he’s been removed from everything else plaguing the southern region of Westeros - but that all changed in Game of Thrones season 7....

During the seven seasons that Gilmore Girls was on The CW, fans watched Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham) and Lorelai Gilmore Jr. (better known as Rory Gilmore, played by Alexis Bledel) deal with many challenges in their friendships, careers, and love lives. But while diner owner Luke Danes (Scott Patterson) is generally regarded as the boyfriend that Lorelai was meant to be with, Rory’s matches are a little more hotly contested....

Potential spoiler for Solo: A Star Wars Story. Solo: A Star Wars Story reused a shot from the marketing for previous anthology movie, Rogue One - but you may have easily missed it. For the most part, Solo did a good job hiding its troubled production. Original directors Phil Lord & Chris Miller were fired in June 2017 over 80% of the way through principal photography, replaced by Ron Howard who went on to not only finish the film but reshoot a good chunk of their work....

Screen Rant can exclusively reveal that Harley Quinn is more popular than almost all the Arrowverse. In general, the future of the DC Universe streaming service, home to the Harley Quinn series, is decidedly unclear right now; the platform was a very different venture from more conventional streaming services like Disney+, because the former is a niche product targeted at a very specific fanbase. DC Universe was seen as the home of all things DC, but that position is a lot more questionable given the impending launch of HBO Max....

Update: Doctor Octopus is now confirmed for Spider-Man PS4. Sony ended their PlayStation E3 2018 press conference with an extended preview of their upcoming exclusive Spider-Man game from developer Insomniac Games. If you’ve not seen it yet, watch it here now. It’s great! The gameplay showcase offered the best and most in-depth look yet at the game yet. It promised that the final product would feature massive battles with multiple villains where players are in full control of Spidey’s movements and combat, and not a long quick-time event like some feared....

When it comes to the horror genre, Michael Myers is a character that just won’t die. The character was first introduced as The Shape in John Carpenter’s original 1978 film. There have been several Halloween sequels over the years and even two films in a remake series that have had varying levels of success. Despite many of these films getting poor reviews, Michael Myers has kept returning to the box office since Halloween has proven to be a profitable franchise....

Halloween producer Jason Blum recently spoke about the baggage that comes with making the 2018 movie, as well as how much money the sequel cost. It’s been 40 years since the original Halloween was released, and though there was a direct sequel - as well as a number of further installments in the franchise - this new movie operates as a different followup to the original film. Although there are a lot of Halloween movies, this one forgets everything but what happened in the first movie....

Fast 8 starts filming in Cleveland this month, and along with the new locale is bound to come a steady trickle of news on the upcoming eighth movie in the Fast & Furious franchise. Some of the recent news has been not so great — particularly the accidental death of a horse on set in Iceland — but other news has been more heartening, such as the news that Charlize Theron was in talks for a lead villain role, hot off her much-lauded performance as Imperator Furiosa in Mad Max: Fury Road....

The character designs of the old Final Fantasy games were a lot more ambitious than what could be recreated on a computer at the time. Final Fantasy VIII was the first game in the series to even begin to have detailed character models. The first six Final Fantasy games were restricted by old Nintendo hardware, which meant that every character was composed of a few pixels each. Final Fantasy VII took the series into the 3D realm for the first time, but the models still resembled the sprites of the 16-bit era....

Firefox Focus is a browser with no tabs, ads, or trackers. As Mozilla says, it’s an alternative for those super quick searches you want to keep separate from your main browser. Today, it’s receiving a redesign with a brand-new update. With version 38, Firefox Focus now has a new minimal and distraction-free design.

Back in the 1980s, horror fans could almost plan their calendars around the yearly - or at least bi-yearly - entries into their favorite slasher franchises. Arguably the most notorious among such franchises was Friday the 13th, which began as a tale of motherly vengeance, but quickly escalated into a seemingly neverending series of killing sprees perpetrated by that mother’s initially thought dead son: Jason Voorhees. Often armed with a machete, Jason went on to star in seven sequels during the ’80s, one in the ’90s, and two in the 2000s....

After months of waiting, it’s finally here – our first glimpse at Game of Thrones’s sixth season. What makes this trailer so special – beyond its far-later-than-normal release date – is, of course, the fact that the vast majority of season 6 is based off of the sixth novel in George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series, The Winds of Winter, which hasn’t released yet. This means that for both television viewers and book readers alike, the upcoming grouping of 10 episodes will provide the very first details of what happens in the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros (and across the narrow sea) after Jon Snow’s (Kit Harington) assassination, Queen Regent Cersei Baratheon’s (Lena Headey) walk of shame, and Daenerys Targaryen’s (Emilia Clarke) unexpected encounter with the Dothraki....

News of a Gilmore Girls revival was welcomed by fans when it was announced back at the end of January. After creator Amy Sherman-Palladino parted ways with Warner Bros. and the show back in 2007, Gilmore Girls ended with a controversial season finale which left a bitter taste for many. Rumors of a revival at Netflix surfaced toward the end of 2015, but Palladino was quick to dismiss them, even though confirmation of Gilmore Girls’ return was announced soon after....

Settle in for more Norse mythology as Sony confirms that the next God of War game will keep the same setting for another installment. Starting back in 2005, God of War has been known for protagonist Kratos doing battle with the Greek gods and slicing into mythological beasts. Now, as the fourth game mixes it up and heads to some colder climes to take on the like of Thor and Odin, the long-running franchise will be getting at least one more Norse adventure....

The new Godzilla: King of the Monsters trailer has some cool nods to a couple of genre classics. It’s fair to say America’s first attempt at making a Godzilla movie didn’t go down very well, with Roland Emmerich’s 1998 blockbuster of the same name receiving terrible reviews, and while it turned a profit it wasn’t enough to convince the studio to pursue a sequel. Gareth Edwards’ 2014 Godzilla went over much better, turning the central beast into a terrifying force of nature again and featuring some great set pieces....

Premiering on Netflix in 2015, Grace and Frankie became a raging success among viewers of all ages due to its raw and hilarious nature. Featuring two older women who found out their husbands were leaving them for each other, Grace and Frankie are forced to team up, live together, and get through their differences in order to make it through that tough time in their lives. Showcasing the downfalls to age, overbearing children, secrets, and elderly homes – Grace and Frankie is now renewed for a sixth season....

Doctor Who’s latest episode, “Kerblam!”, made references to the show’s David Tennant and Matt Smith eras that proved to be much more than simple moments of fan service. In this week’s adventure, Team TARDIS were whisked to a future where humans struggled to find work due to a widespread preference for robotic employees. Tipped off by an anonymous plea for help, the Doctor and her companions seek the message’s source at Kerblam!...
