Director Taika Waititi said that he wanted to use some of Kate Bush's music in his latest film "Thor: Love and Thunder," before Netflix's "Stranger Things" made use of the singer's track "Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)." The track, which Bush originally released in 1985, exploded in popularity following the release of "Stranger Things" season four, part one. In the series, the song serves a crucial plot […]
Twitter has started testing a new CoTweets feature this week with users of the social network. The CoTweets feature allows two accounts to co-author a tweet and both be tagged in a single tweet. Twitter has confirmed to The Verge that this new feature is now live for some users for a limited amount of time after the company started experimenting with the idea earlier this year. “We’re continuing to […]
Taika Waititi has made it his goal with his Thor movies to Do The Most Possible with his take on the God of Thunder, in a way few other Marvel movies do with their own heroes. Love and Thunder appears to be following on from Ragnarok in fine form in this regard, with both its Thors—and if this taste of the soundtrack is any indication, we’re in for a treat. […]
Instagram has added a long-awaited feature specifically for iOS/iPhone users. Despite being one of the most popular apps in the world, Facebook is actually pretty slow to update Instagram. It often takes months, sometimes years, for basic and in-demand features to be added. And to be fair to Instagram, this is how most social media apps work (just ask every Twitter user about the edit button). That said, today the long […]

Christian Bale is open to slipping into his Caped Crusader costume again. The actor, who starred as Batman in the "Dark Knight" trilogy, revealed he hasn’t ruled out the idea of reprising his role as Bruce Wayne. However, the 48-year-old would only do it under one condition: if director Christopher Nolan also returned. Nolan, 51, directed Bale in 2005’s "Batman Begins," as well as 2008’s "The Dark Knight" and 2012’s […]
Running Up That Hill by Kate Bush celebrates a second week at Number 1 on the Official UK Singles Chart as the music icon's extraordinary success continues. This week Kate gave a rare interview to Woman's Hour on BBC Radio 4 about the song's renewed and record-breaking success following its use on Netflix's Stranger Things. She told presenter Emma Barnett it is "wonderful" that her music had "got to a whole new audience", many […]
"Elvis" has entered the theaters, but in a package that often recalls the excesses associated with his Vegas-residency years: Looking bloated, gaudy and at times bordering on self-parody. Those missteps, courtesy of director Baz Luhrmann and an ill-used Tom Hanks, squander Austin Butler's brilliant moments in the title role, which deserve a much better movie. Luhrmann's most pertinent credits include the visually striking musical "Moulin Rouge!," which offers obvious stylistic parallels. Yet employing […]
To start the weekend, Drake released a new album titled “Honestly, Nevermind,” a super vibey summer dance album that is unlike almost anything the rapper has released. Whether the singsongy form of Drake is your favorite or not, at least one of the songs helped spark an Android moment. The third track on the album is called “Texts Go Green,” a reference to green bubbles in Apple’s iMessage. Drake is […]
