Well, you might not be aware that you’re unknowingly practicing “Cyberloafing”, a term coined by the corporate world in recent years. Cyberloafing, in simple words, is when an employee is using the internet connection at the workplace for reasons other than work. This includes scrolling on social media, watching YouTube videos, taking Buzzfeed quizzes, ordering items online, or even responding to personal emails. While a lot of you may argue that it is often done during breaks or when you’re exhausted by a certain task given to you, many employers think otherwise....

Distance is not just dangerous to relationships; it also acts as a nightmare for data. Puns aside, high-traffic websites start losing millions for every extra second added in website loading. Numerous case studies point to the importance of fast-loading websites. Nobody wants to wait, especially when there are limitless alternatives everywhere. Here’s a statistic: If you’re wondering, Bounce Rate is the percentage of people who leave your website without taking any action....

Even with the movies, the two incarnations of Venom are as different as the two Deadpools or the two Banes. While both Topher Grace and Tom Hardy‘s Eddie Brocks are media screw-ups who bond with alien goo that unleash the id, they also represent very different versions of how Venom has existed in the comics. The version from Spider-Man 3 died and that was that, but the one from 2018’s Venom has not only gone on to turn himself into a franchise, but he’s been able to finally settle Marvel’s mind....

“Jen Salke, who runs (Prime Video), and I were doing a conference somewhere, and she said, ‘What about doing an anthology?’” says Blum when we connect with him via Zoom to discuss the project. “We had our Into The Dark series on Hulu, and it was winding up. I said, ‘I would love to do that.’ I love doing an anthology of movies, but there were things that I would do differently if I had the chance to do it again....

At first stunned and frightened like everyone else, Wheatley — whose iconoclastic filmography also includes the nerve-rattling Kill List, the psychedelic period piece A Field in England, and the satirical crime thriller Free Fire — did what all creative people always do: channeled what was happening into a completely new idea for a movie. One year later, Wheatley is out with In The Earth, his first horror movie since Field and, after Rebecca, a return to his low-budget roots....

As a jubilant and kaleidoscopic love letter to the handful of city blocks which run adjacent to the George Washington Bridge, In the Heights bursts with a life and creativity that is often blinding, and always intoxicating. It lives in a postcard Neverland version of the usually overlooked and marginalized sides of New York City, yet that does not make it fanciful. Rather this is a movie head over heels in love with its street corners above 181st Street, and the largely Latinx community which lives there....

“Top Gun is the movie that took Tom from a promising young actor onto the road to superstar,” director Joseph Kosinski [Tron: Legacy, Oblivion] tells Den of Geek. “It’s just a great story and a great friendship between Maverick and Goose [Anthony Edwards]. The notion of the wingman was created with Top Gun and has entered the vernacular now. It’s a combination of all those things.” Finally taking flight in May 2022, Top Gun: Maverick finds the titular character returning home to train Top Gun graduates for a covert mission....

Billed as an open-world action-RPG, Arceus promises to take us back to the very early days of the Sinnoh region. According to a description shared by the game’s developers, Arceus will let us “catch wild pokémon” after studying their behaviors and waiting for the right moment. Furthermore, the game will let us “battle wild pokémon with our ally pokémon” as part of a new combat system that lets us “seamlessly enter battle” in a way that wasn’t always possible in the more turn-based combat systems of previous Pokémon titles....

You may think the answer to that question is “Yes, of course they should,” but things are rarely that simple when it comes to Resident Evil adaptations and their relationship to the games. Just look at the Milla Jovovich-led Resident Evil movies. They may have used the Resident Evil name, but they’re about as far removed from the franchise canon as you can get without simply starting a new series To be fair, even the Resident Evil games have sometimes struggled to keep the canon straight....

J.K. Simmons has revealed that he’s signed up to star in further Marvel-Sony Spider-Man movies as J. Jonah Jameson. The Oscar-winning actor famously reprised his role from Sam Raimi’s web-slinging trilogy in last summer’s MCU instalment, Spider-Man: Far From Home – albeit in a twisted new way, leaving hard copy behind and outing Peter Parker as Spider-Man on a live dailybugle.net stream during a mid-credits scene. Likely due to a combination of iron-clad NDAs and uncertainly around the current industry timeline, Simmons says that both he and fans of the character should dial down their excitement for now, and when it comes to any of the planned Marvel movies in the pipeline, he doesn’t think we should necessarily expect to see Jameson pop up....

The stunning revelation, which was broken Tuesday afternoon by The Hollywood Reporter, confirms the pair will be reporting directly to Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav. They also replace former DC Films president Walter Hamada, who exited the company last week. Not since perhaps the days of Charlie Chaplin, Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, and D.W. Griffith founding United Artists in 1919 has an A-list director moved into the position of studio executive....

The answer, to the best of our knowledge, was “no,” which leads to an even bigger riddle (not to mix our villains): just how different will the new version, now called Zack Snyder’s Justice League, be from the 2017 theatrical movie? Leto’s encore as the Clown Prince of Crime was revealed by the Hollywood Reporter, which indicated that the Oscar-winning actor had joined the additional photography that is now underway for Snyder’s project, which is scheduled to arrive sometime in 2021 on HBO Max....

Such is the struggle that contestants on the beloved American quiz show institution Jeopardy! constantly face.

Boyega is once again speaking out in a new interview with GQ, this time about being one of the stars of the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy. In his chat with the magazine, which also covers the events leading up to his BLM speech, his work with Steve McQueen on the new BBC series Small Axe, and his family life, the actor is very candid about his time working with Disney on the multi-billion-dollar trilogy that capped the Skywalker Saga last year....

The Joker is a character historically infamous for his theatricality; he’s a scion of chaos, the maestro of malevolence, and a twisty yin to Batman’s straight-laced yang. He’s a comic icon that was himself borne from the haunting visions of cinema’s earliest glories, as Bill Finger was in part inspired to co-create the supervillain after watching Conrad Veidt’s eerie transformation in the 1928 Expressionist classic, The Man Who Laughs. Perhaps that is why each return to the big screen is heralded as much as any caped or cowled superhero....
