Famed designer Jony Ive has disappeared from Apple’s Leadership page, signaling an end to his time in Cupertino. Ive joined Apple in 1992 and led the design team from 1996.

Jony Ive’s last day at Apple was always a bit of a mystery. The press release announcing his departure only said that it would occur “later this year.” Some would say Ive checked out of Apple product design a long time ago after becoming distracted by the design and construction of the company’s new spaceship headquarters.

Apple’s Leadership page as of 26 nov 2019 11:12:55 GMT (via Google cache). Ive has been completely removed as of today.

Apple will be a client of Ive’s new design company, LoveFrom, which the designer started in collaboration...

Black Christmas Remake Director Says The Film’s Fiercely Feminist

Blumhouse is gearing up to try its hand at classic horror movies centered around holidays once more. Clearly buoyed by the success of last year’s Halloween, the studio is now getting ready to bring us their remake of 1974 slasher Black Christmas, which is set to be with us right in time for the holiday it’s named after.

For those unfamiliar with the original – and if you are, be sure to check it out – the plot revolves around a group of sorority girls who find themselves terrorized by a homicidal maniac during the holiday break. As they try to stay alive and keep safe, they soon learn that he’s much closer than they thought.

No doubt this reimagining will pay homage to the original, but there are also expected to be quite a few differences from what we got back in 1974. One of which is that this will be a “fiercely feminist” take on the source material. Or so says director Sophia Takal.

Speaking in a recent interview, the filmmaker teased what audiences can expect and had this to say:

“You know, this movie, even though it’s very, very loosely based on Black Christmas, I’d say the plot is extremely different. It’s more inspired by the feeling that Black Christmas made me feel watching it, this idea of misogyny always being out there and never totally eradicable. So that was the jumping-off point for how I came up with this plot. I’d compare it more to how Luca Guadagnino remade Suspiria than to a straight-ahead remake … I wanted to make something that reflected our time right now, drawing more from what the original evoked for me rather than great plot points. For me, it was about what does it feel like to be a woman in 2019?”

“I feel like another part of why I kind of shifted the direction that this version took was because, in 2019, I didn’t just want to make a movie about a bunch of women getting slaughtered. It just gave me a pit in my stomach. This is not to say that a man might want to see that. I just think I felt very much a responsibility not to perpetuate this idea of disposable female characters, because of how it makes me feel when I watch that. I call this movie a fiercely feminist film…”

Starring Imogen Poots, Brittany O’Grady, Lily Donoghue and Aleyse Shannon, among others, these comments are sure to stir up some discussion online. Especially since the internet already seems pretty mixed on the movie. While it’ll be nice to see a new take on the classic horror pic, the fact that it’s PG-13 definitely stings. Not to mention that after watching the trailer, it kind of felt like we’d already seen everything the pic had to offer.

But maybe we’re wrong. Maybe this will be another sleeper hit for the genre and a nice win to close the year out on. We’ll find out for sure when Black Christmas reaches theaters on December 13th. Which, for those keeping track, is a Friday.

Avengers: Infinity War Almost Had War Machine Sliced In Half

Marvel just loves beating up War Machine. In the recently released art book, Avengers: Endgame – The Art of the Movie, concept artist Phil Saunders reveals that there were alternate plans for the character in Avengers: Infinity War.

Played by Don Cheadle, James Rhodes was set to appear in the Edinburgh battle. The scene features Scarlet Witch and Vision battling Thanos’ Black Order, before Captain America, Black Widow and Falcon rescue the pair. But another version includes War Machine who while fighting the Black Order, is sliced in half.

The book is filled with artwork not seen in the movies and Saunders spoke about the War Machine scene in Infinity War, explaining it as so:

“He was going to be sliced in half by one of the Black Order, and we were going to be shocked until we cut to the scene where he is remotely piloting it. The idea was that he was going to have PTSD from his crash, and so he wasn’t willing to get back in his suit — but he was able to use his prosthetics, attached to this gyroscopic robotic thing, to control the suit remotely.”

It sounds like a great idea on paper. It’s also an interesting angle to the character and would mirror the same conflict Tony Stark endured in Iron Man 3. But if you remember that Edinburgh scene like I do, it’s most remembered as Captain America’s reintroduction. Cap catches the spear and emerges from the shadows while that iconic score kicks in. It’s a great moment from the film and drew applause every time I saw it in the theater.

The energy would disappear once War Machine is cut in two. Not to mention that Saunders believes the similarity with Iron Man 3 and Stark also piloting an unmanned suit made it seem unoriginal.

In any case, following Captain America: Civil War, Kevin Feige and company seemed to abandon War Machine’s storyline entirely. He exists only to support Stark. If there was a character I was sure would have died in Endgame, it would’ve been him. He’s been around long enough for fans to care about but not essential enough to keep in play.. Alas, he was spared a violent fake death and this is why we have editors for movies, right?
