It seems that fans of the HBO series “The Last of Us” will be in for a treat with the upcoming second season. Based on the video game of the same name, showrunner Craig Mazin (“Chernobyl”) often popped by Naughty Dog’s headquarters to brainstorm storylines with creator Neil Druckmann. The result is the show and second game developing in tandem with each other. “We’d be talking about Game 2, and in fact there’s a lot of changes — sometimes small adjustments, sometimes bigger — that we’re making in anticipation of adapting Game 2,” Druckmann tells Entertainment Weekly. “So even before…

Since 2000, the “Final Destination” franchise has been giving us bizarre death scene after bizarre death scene. Recently, we got two teasers for the upcoming 6th installment, “Final Destination: Bloodlines.” The first teaser hit February 2nd, and is just a 10-second clip of a ceiling fan slowly spinning with chains clanging in the background.

The duo made their pitch over a Zoom call when their fireplace suddenly burst into uncontrolled flames. While they were fighting…

The ByteDance-owned video platform TikTok saga continues. After being taken down by a Supreme Court ruling, the app was back up hours later with a message thanking President Donald Trump. On January 27th, Trump told reporters that Microsoft is in talks to buy the app, solving its legal woes. The Supreme Court argued TikTok’s current owner ByteDance provided user data to the Chinese government, and/or has a direct influence on the content users see. Because of this, Chinese-owned ByteDance must sell the platform to a US-based company, or cease the operation of TikTok in the United States. Opposition to the…

For the past year or so, the Nasdaq has become more tech stock-heavy. Much of this shift is due to the promise of advancements in artificial intelligence (AI). That overinflation came to a head on January 27th, when the Nasdaq dropped more than 3% by mid-afternoon trading. This dip is due to tech stocks taking a hit after Chinese company DeepSeek rolled out a new self-titled AI product. While the launch was last week, DeepSeek is already gaining serious traction in the market. The company’s technology is comparable to most giant US manufacturers but with cheaper and more powerful chips. DeepSeek…
