New 'Justice League' teaser debuts -- and it's almost funny? - CNET

[embedded content] In Hall H at Comic-Con on Saturday mo ing the cast of "Justice League" appeared onstage during the Wa er Bros. panel to show off a sneak peek of their 2017 movie. Director Zach Snyder, Ben Affleck (Batman), Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman), Jason Momoa (Aquaman), Ezra Miller (Flash) and Ray Fisher (Cyborg) all headed onstage to greet the audience and introduce the special footage. After so little insight on the film, the footage is actually a breath of fresh air. Featuring a still-way-gruff-voiced Bruce Wayne seeking out Aquaman and Flash, the teaser seems to have more comedy than nearly all of "Batman v Superman" did. Speaking of that second 'man, he's "suspiciously" missing from the teaser footage. I suppose having died at the...

The Angry Video Game Nerd's auction will make you very happy - CNET

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the Angry Video Game Nerd, a character created by filmmaker James Rolfe who's considered to be one of the grand daddies of the web's video game comedy community. That's right. The age of 10 is considered elderly by Inte et standards. Rolfe shot 139 episodes of his classic video game comedy series on YouTube and for sites like ScrewAttack and the now-defunct GameTrailers. He also made a feature length film for the character called "Angry Video Game Nerd: The Movie". That means that he's got a lot of stuff like props, artwork, old scripts, storyboards and other items that tend to pile up when you're shooting a web series with an eye for production value and homemade special effects. Rolfe released a video (that has one tiny NSFW moment in it...

Happy 40th birthday, Apple. Welcome to middle age - CNET

Today, Apple hits the big 4-0.That's officially "over the hill," according to Urban Dictionary. (Sorry, everyone 40 and over!) For some, hitting that milestone causes mild panic and even a midlife crisis. Apple won't be blowing its billions on Porsches (well, except for the rumors it's working on a self-driving car), but the birthday seems fitting for a company in a more, shall we call it, mature stage of life. Apple's no longer the brash, hippie company that introduced the Macintosh computer in 1984 as part of its mission to create "bicycles for the mind." And it isn't the struggling organization that was on the verge of bankruptcy when Steve Jobs retu ed to run it in 1997 and urged people to "Think Different." It's not even the Apple of the early 2000s, when it introduced one blockbuste...

How New Yorker cartoons could teach computers to be funny - CNET

On a bright Wednesday mo ing, on the glass-encased 38th floor of One World Trade Center, about a dozen cartoonists waited anxiously outside Bob Mankoff's office for a chance to pitch The New Yorker's cartoon editor. Yet, amid the pressure, at least one person there was breathing easy: Colin Stokes, Mankoff's assistant. Not too long ago, Stokes spent eight hours a week trawling through about 5,000 submissions for the magazine's caption contest, which asks readers to come up with a clever one-liner for a cartoon. While the 18-year-old contest is wildly popular, and winning is prestigious enough to put on a resume (OK, not really), Stokes was in danger of going, as Mankoff put it, "humor blind." That's something like snow blindness, but much rarer. Luckily, a computer program came t...

Facebook emojis arrive. Put on a happy face - CNET

Facebook knows you have feelings, and it wants to help you share them with new symbols that represent a greater range of emotion than a "like" can manage.The social networking giant said Wednesday that all of its users now have the option of choosing from a collection of new emoji-like "Reactions" to react to friends' posts with more nuanced emotion.

The Legend of Zelda at 30: Happy birthday to a dear childhood friend - CNET

I was a little girl when my older brother brought home a Nintendo Entertainment System and a copy of The Legend of Zelda. I didn't know it then, but he brought home a lot more than electronics and plastic. He introduced me to a deep and abiding lifelong love. It started ignominiously, my tiny hands clutching the controller, completely clueless as I wandered Hyrule, slaying and getting slayed by monsters. The longer I spent, though, the more the game got under my skin. A fantasy nerd from the time I could swing a wooden sword, I was hooked. When I finally got A Link to the Past, and Link's Awakening, the heroes and villains of Hyrule began to reveal themselves and, more than Middle-earth or Shannara or Krynn, Hyrule came to represent the ideal fantasy setting, and Link the ideal hero. ...
