Genre fiction is recognized with this year’s alternative Nobel prize for literature
Earlier this year, the Swedish academy announced that it would not issue a prize for literature. The announcement prompted a flurry of handwringing within the literary community, and the creation of an alternative award to ensure that a literary prize would still be issued in 2018. Today, the organization behind the alternative award announced that authors Maryse Condé, Haruki Murakami, Kim Thúy, and Neil Gaiman have been selected as the four finalists for the 2018 New Prize in Literature.
This year has been a difficult one for the Swedish Academy. The organization behind the literary prize was rocked by a sexual assault scandal involving the husband of one of its members, and in May, it announced that it would not issue a Nobel for...

UE’s Boom app on Android stopped supporting Amazon Alexa in its latest update
UE Boom’s latest app update removes its compatibility with Amazon Alexa. They put out a joint statement to The Verge explaining they’re focusing on their core product.
The new version no longer supports alarms or Amazon Alexa, according to the update notes on Google Play. The company explained that they introduced the update to the app to focus “on enhancing the core functionality of the speakers.” The company noted that Alexa will continue to be available on its Blast and Megablast speakers.
Many users have left one-star reviews complaining the new update slows down the app. Users have noted that the ability to remotely power up UE devices has disappeared as well.

Huawei adds new colors to the P20 Pro plus leather back options for China
Remember how I told you Huawei’s excellent P20 Pro was a phone that would frustrate Americans with its absence from their market? Well, this week at IFA, that device became even more aggravating, as Huawei introduced four new variants: two new color options and two real-leather backs that look and feel lovely.
Firstly, the colors: one of them flips the gradient of the original Twilight P20 Pro, with the darker side now being at the bottom and the radiant blue topping the phone like the glow of a distant flame. Huawei calls this Morpho Aurora, because the gradient does indeed morph and change depending on the angle you look at the phone from. I like the original P20 Pro’s gradient finish, and I like this new one even better. The white P20...

10 new trailers you should watch this week
I’d wanted to watch The Beatles’ movie Help! for some time after having seen clips of its slapstick and absurdist humor in, I think, a film class years ago. I finally got around to it the other weekend, and the film’s comedy really is quite often surprisingly timeless and fun in its silliness.
But there’s also a lot about the movie that stands out very poorly five decades later: namely, the film’s villains are an odd, offensive mashup of cultures, that seems to conflate Hinduism with Aztec sacrifices. The film doesn’t ascribe this religion to any one country or group, but it broadly references “Eastern” culture even while casting all white actors and using what is frequently Indian or Middle Eastern imagery.
There’s a very good chance...

9 science fiction and fantasy books coming out this September you should add to your reading list
We’re going to start doing something a little different with our monthly book list here on The Verge: we’re shifting this column from a monthly schedule to a bi-weekly one. Each list will be a bit shorter and hopefully, a bit less daunting than a longer list.
Speaking of shorter and less daunting, I packed two books when I went on a trip out of state recently: The Black God’s Drums by P. Djèlí Clark and War Cry by Brian McClellan. The two are fantasy novellas from Tor’s Tor.com imprint, and each are tiny adventures set in a much larger world.
The Black God’s Drums is set in an alternate 19th century where the American Civil War persisted long past 1865. In New Orleans, a young girl named Creeper overhears a group of Confederate...

California is leading the state-by-state fight for net neutrality
Last year’s FCC decision to repeal net neutrality was arguably the most unpopular tech policy decision in the history of the modern internet. The repeal not only resulted in an unprecedented public backlash, but prompted numerous states to immediately begin exploring new state-level alternatives in the wake of the FCC’s retreat. Now, instead of one fight on the federal level, telecom giants like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast face countless state-level efforts to keep their monopoly power in check.
On the federal level, the FCC’s “Restoring Internet Freedom” order not only obliterated popular net neutrality rules, but crippled the agency’s ability to protect consumers from a seemingly endless parade of bad ISP behavior, from historically...

The viral ‘Johny, Johny’ kids’ videos are a godforsaken nightmare
Over the years, the sector of YouTube dedicated to children’s entertainment has become notorious for its deep well of barely filtered trash. The lack of sufficient algorithmic moderation has been shown to be actually harmful in recent years: in 2017, The New York Times published a lengthy piece exploring the dark side of children’s YouTube, one that shed light on a growing trove of graphic videos that had been slipping past YouTube’s Kids app filter.
Unbeknownst to some parents, their kids had been watching videos of Spider-Man peeing on Frozen’s Elsa, or the Paw Patrol team visiting a strip club, or Mickey Mouse getting run over and bleeding out in the street. While YouTube claims these videos rarely beat their algorithm and have since...

Pennywise Emerges From The Shadows In New IT: Chapter Two Set Pics
Jessica Chastain may have wrapped principal photography on Andy Muschietti’s IT: Chapter Two, but Pennywise the Dancing Clown (Bill Skarsgård) is, evidently, still hard at work. Although it’ll be quite a while before the titular jester is shimmying and shaking again on the big screen, just yesterday, the malevolent entity was spotted in Port Hope, Ontario, perched atop a familiar landmark.
If you’ve read Stephen King’s 1986 novel, you’ll surely recollect that, at one point, Pennywise possessed a statue of Paul Bunyan, which he then used to terrorize Richie Tozier, who’ll be portrayed by both Bill Hader and Finn Wolfhard in IT: Chapter Two. If the below set photos are any indication, it seems that the demonic entity will indeed inhabit the giant lumberjack in the upcoming sequel.
Courtesy of Northumberland News, Bill Skarsgård was espied hanging out with the tall tale character – which, by the way, is the very first time he’s been observed on set – in full Pennywise prosthetic. There’s not much more to take away from these pics aside from that, but it’s nice to get a glimpse at the Dancing Clown regardless.
Scheduled for release on September 6th, 2019, Pennywise can certainly afford to lounge around on the set of Chapter Two, seeing as the monstrous bow of his 2017 feature ($123 million) will remain unchallenged for a while yet. Though The Nun‘s headed toward a huge opening weekend, it’ll come nowhere close to breaking the all-time opening weekend record for September, which is currently held by IT, and nor will Shane Black’s The Predator, but I digress.
IT: Chapter Two – which will pick up twenty-seven years after Chapter One – features Jessica Chastain (Beverly Marsh), James McAvoy (Bill Denbrough), Bill Hader (Richie Tozier), Jay Ryan (Ben Hanscom), Andy Bean (Stanley Uris), James Ransone (Eddie Kaspbrak) and Isaiah Mustafa (Mike Hanlon) as the adult version of the Losers Club, when they’ll come together once more to banish the evil Pennywise for good. Or so we hope.

The Last Jedi Director Trashes YouTuber Mike Zeroh Over Star Wars Rumors
While many a YouTuber has garnered an impressive following by offering their thoughts and theories on the biggest franchises in film and TV, most of these video-makers probably don’t expect the major creators of these franchises to hit back when the speculation isn’t so flattering. But not only did The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson do just that, but his assessment of theory-loving Star Wars fan Mike Zeroh was about as harsh as it gets.
Last year, Johnson’s film had a polarizing effect on the fanbase, and with the filmmaker taking so much heat for his provocative entry in the Star Wars saga, perhaps it isn’t too surprising that rumors have been circulating that the director might be retiring from the series before he can get round to helming his own planned trilogy.
Though Johnson was quick to shoot down this speculation in response to a recent tweet, he later offered a longer and more passionate follow-up when he found out who one of the sources of the speculation was.
“Wait. Hahahahahaha this is all because of Zeroh? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. When we were in production we had a guy keeping an eye on online rumors. At some point we started using “Zeroh” as a verb. Like, “throws trash at basket, but it slips out of your hand and falls behind you.” “Zeroh’d it.”
Ouch. Apparently even Johnson felt a little remorseful about this derisive comment because he quickly deleted it, though not before some witnesses managed to take a screenshot.
This little incident is just the latest demonstration of how contentious a subject Star Wars has become in these last few years. But before Johnson can bring us his trilogy-long take on the property, Episode IX is still on the way, and the pressure’s on for J.J. Abrams and his team to bring us something that fans and creators alike can agree upon.

Avengers: Infinity War Theory Says Thanos Had Two Separate Gauntlets
While the post-credits teaser of Thanos at the end of Age of Ultron did a decent enough job of reminding viewers that the real big bad of the series was still to come (albeit, not for another three years), the scene does throw a bit of a wrench in the works continuity-wise, raising the question of why the Mad Titan journeyed to Nidavellir to get his Infinity Gauntlet if he seemingly already possessed one. Granted, Avengers: Infinity War co-writer Christopher Markus has already offered his own quick interpretation of the chronology of the events, but this new Reddit theory suggests something slightly more elaborate.
User AhhBisto starts off with the claim that the gauntlet seen at the end of Age of Ultron turned out to be insufficient for harnessing the full power of the Infinity Stones, explaining:
“At the end of Age Of Ultron we see Thanos retrieve his Gauntlet and says he’ll do it himself but then he goes to Nidavellir to have a Gauntlet created by Eitri. People see this as a plot hole but it’s really not………they’re not the same fucking Gauntlet. When Thor, Rocket and Groot get to Nidavellir they notice a mould of the Gauntlet and Eitri explains that Thanos wanted “a device capable of harnessing the power of the Stones”.
So why go Eitri and the dwarves if he had one already? Because the one he had couldn’t hold the Stones and they could make him one, and the dwarves specialise in rare metals like Uru.”
The Redditor then goes on to argue that there’s precedent for this issue in the comic books.
“Here’s the thing about the Infinity Gauntlet itself, it started out as a piece of Thanos’ armour in the comics that Thanos re-designed to hold the power of the Infinity Stones, but over the years as the Stones have been used in stories more, their lore has expanded. One such story saw a villain called The Hood assemble 3 of the Stones by himself but without the Gauntlet, and doing so caused him physical harm each time he used them (this is in the 2010 Avengers series by Brian Bendis and John Romita Jr.) and he is warned by Doctor Strange (disguised as Thanos) that he will end up killing himself if he carried on because of the sheer power he was using.
So this was Thanos’ issue, he could physically hold one or two of the Stones without a Gauntlet to hold them as could most cosmic beings (and part of the reason why Peter Quill didn’t evaporate by touching the Power Stone in GOTG V1) but to literally wield INFINITY he would need something stronger. The only metals capable of “harnessing” the power of the Stones are the rare metals of the Marvel Universe, Uru would be one and i would bet Vibranium could possibly do it too.”
AhhBisto’s post goes on to cite a few more pieces of evidence to suggest that Thanos’ first gauntlet was inadequate without that Uru mold, and it’s clear that the user has put a fair amount of thought into this idea – too much perhaps, seeing how many fans have settled for the simpler explanation that the Age of Ultron post-credits teaser was taken from further down the timeline, slightly before the events of Avengers: Infinity War. But if this longer version of events seems more intriguing to you, by all means take it as truth until further notice.
