The latest Philips Hue bulb is bigger and brighter
The Hue A21 White bulb. | Photo: Signify
The Philips Hue line is getting a few new products today, the most popular of which is likely to be a new bulb that’s much brighter than typical Hue lights. The new bulb only comes in white — it doesn’t do any fancy color temperature adjustments — but it offers light equivalent to a 100W bulb, whereas the standard white Hue bulb is only a 60W equivalent. Brightness has been a limitation of Hue bulbs, so this could help more people find what they want out of the smart lighting system.
There’s one other key difference to these new bulbs: they come in the slightly larger A21 lightbulb shape, rather than the standard A19 lightbulb shape. For many uses, that likely won’t be a huge issue, but it could be a problem on lamps or fixtures where a...

Guardians Of The Galaxy Star Dave Bautista Shows Off His New BLM Tattoo
The ongoing Black Lives Matter protests over the murder of George Floyd and racism in American society has caused many celebrities to firmly nail their colors to the political mast. Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively made a massive donation right at the start of the protests and have been recently joined by John Cena and many, many others. But Guardians of the Galaxy star Dave Bautista has gone one step further by not just donating money, but having Floyd’s now-iconic last words “I Can’t Breath” and “We the People” inked on his hands.
He shared a photo of the tattoo on Twitter and captioned it with:
“Be relentless in the pursuit of justice. Unintimidated in the fight against oppression. We’re together to remind each other what we’re fighting for. I want to forget.I won’t let myself. There’s too much at stake. Peace to everyone fighting for a dream. #OneNation #OneRace”
Guardians Of The Galaxy Star Dave Bautista Has A New Tattoo To Show Support Of BLM
Click to zoom 
Bautista’s unambiguous support of BLM doesn’t come as a surprise, of course. A flick through his Twitter timeline over the last few weeks will see videos criticizing the police and retweets of progressive politicians like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Beyond that, there’s a litany of venom directed at President Donald Trump, with Bautista not mincing words when it comes to the Commander-in-Chief:
“Try picturing President Dumb-Dumb tweeting this naked (great big mushy butt and that big sloppy gut hanging over his tiny little mushroom)eating a ham&cheese sandwich(crumbs on his man boobs)trying to figure out how to spell Pocahontas Face with tears of joy. I.e. he’s pathetic,” tweeted the actor.
What a lovely image. Thanks for that.
Bautista is notoriously outspoken whenever he feels like an injustice is committed. In fact, he can get so passionate that many assumed his fierce criticism of Disney when they temporarily fired James Gunn (who clapped his new tattoo) from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 would prevent him from ever working with the studio again. That obviously didn’t happen, though.
Dave Bautista will no doubt be preparing to return as Drax, but we don’t know when the next Guardians film is set to shoot. In the meantime, his latest effort, My Spy, is landing on Amazon Prime on June 26th.

Gal Gadot Wears Batman’s Cowl In New Justice League BTS Photo
Justice League has obviously been on the minds of most comic book and movie fans with the news that the Snyder Cut will be completed and released on HBO Max in 2021. Director Zack Snyder has been teasing fans with images from his vision of the film, including more of Darkseid, but he’s not the only person giving us some behind-the-scenes content.
Ray Fisher shared a photo from a scrapped scene of his character Cyborg last week and now another still from production has been released. The pic – seen below – shows Wonder Woman herself, Gal Gadot, dawning Batman’s cowl. It’s clearly a bit too large for her, but it was no doubt a funny moment that day on set.
Of course, comic book fans love it when superheroes use other superhero’s accessories. There was Spider-Man briefly holding Cap’s shield in Captain America: Civil War and who can forget Cap wielding Thor’s hammer at the end of Avengers: Endgame? Wonder Woman wearing the cowl is a bit more impractical, but seeing the iconic female superhero wearing that familiar mask is striking all the same.
The cast of Justice League is reportedly returning to record some additional dialogue for the Snyder Cut, but according to some, that will be pretty much the extent of their involvement in reshoots. Then again, we’ve heard conflicting reports on this, as other outlets have said a few of the principal actors could return to film new scenes.
Whatever ends up happening, it remains to be seen if Snyder will be able to salvage a mediocre superhero movie. It doesn’t really matter at this point because people will watch it regardless, but it’ll certainly be interesting to find out if Justice League can be vastly improved once Zack puts his finishing touches on it.

Zack Snyder Teases More About Robin’s Death In Justice League Snyder Cut
Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice was originally intended as just the beginning of Zack Snyder’s major plans for the DCEU, but needless to say things didn’t go as predicted, meaning much of the set-up in BvS has left fans scratching their heads in the years since. One of the biggest mysteries doomed to be left unanswered is the case of Robin’s death, as visually revealed through the Boy Wonder’s Joker-desecrated suit being on display in the Batcave.
Back in the day, we thought this might be further explored in Ben Affleck’s The Batman, but that wasn’t meant to be. With the incoming arrival of the Snyder Cut of Justice League, though, our hopes at getting more on this mystery are renewed. Sure enough, the filmmaker has confirmed to fans on Vero that his JL will feature “a hint” at Robin’s demise. It doesn’t sound like we’ll get much on the topic, then, but at least it’ll be something.
Remember, the Robin killed by the Joker is not Jason Todd, as per the Death in the Family comic book storyline. It’s actually Dick Grayson. That’s not officially stated anywhere in the DCEU, but Snyder has confirmed that was his intention. Clearly, the dark event would have been examined at some point over Snyder’s ambitious five-film arc he had in the works. As that’s not going to happen, though, we’ll have to settle for whatever hint will be in the JL cut.
In any case, we’ll likely get a new (alive) Robin opposite Robert Pattinson’s Dark Knight in Matt Reeves’ Batman movies. Maybe not in the first one, coming next year, but certainly in one of the sequels. This may lead to a Nightwing spinoff film, as was once coming from The LEGO Batman Movie’s Chris McKay.
While we wait for Robin to return to the big screen, Snyder’s Justice League hits HBO Max sometime in 2021.

Godzilla Vs. Kong Director Shares New Promo Image
Legendary Pictures has been building up to Godzilla vs. Kong for an extremely long time. This should be the Infinity War of the Monsterverse, showing the two cinematic heavyweights going to toe-to-toe, with Kong’s ferocity and agility pitted against Godzilla’s sheer power. It sounds great, so where is it? Well, if they’d stuck to the original plan, we’d have seen it in March, but then it was delayed until November for reshoots.
Then came a beast more destructive than anything in the Monsterverse and a tiny fraction of the size: COVID-19. It’s wreaked havoc on the entertainment world and is now responsible for Godzilla vs. Kong once again missing a release date. This is because Wonder Woman 1984 has been rescheduled for October, taking Godzilla vs. Kong‘s spot. That, plus The Matrix 4‘s delay means there’s a plum May 2021 release date going spare. That’s now been snaffled up by this movie, meaning another painful year of waiting for Monsterverse fans.
Director Adam Wingard is obviously aware of the frustration felt by fans, posting an apology on Instagram:
“To all Godzilla and Kong fans…I know you’re pumped to see how the battle of the century will turn out, but with all that is going on, we’re going to have to wait just a little bit longer to see who will emerge victorious. Find the BIGGEST screen possible to see Kong and Godzilla face off May 2021!”
He’s also posted a clapperboard on Twitter that shows the two titans squaring off (see below), with fans immediately poring over it for details.

While I’m a big Monsterverse fan and specifically of Adam Wingard (The Guest kicks so much ass), I am getting a bit tired of waiting for the bout of the century to begin. Let’s hope this is the absolute final time Godzilla vs. Kong gets delayed. Fingers crossed.

Clive Barker May Be Getting Back The Rights To Hellraiser
It’s been a busy year for the Hellraiser franchise, with a reboot movie and a HBO series both in the works. However, the future of the series could be in for big changes, as creator Clive Barker is looking to recapture the rights to his material. Similar to the ongoing Friday the 13th rights dispute, whereby an author can choose to reverse a transfer of copyright, Barker is attempting to terminate his 1986 transfer and reclaim what has been a lucrative franchise.
Back in 1986, Barker likely wouldn’t have guessed that signing away the rights to his novella “The Hellbound Heart” would have such significant consequences. Although Barker directed the original Hellraiser, and was involved as producer in later films, for the most part the franchise was exploited by Dimension Films in the 1990s and 2000s, with increasingly poor results. More recently, Spyglass Media have obtained the rights to make the reboot, while a different set of rights are held for the HBO television series.
The news that Barker has filed to regain his rights to “The Hellbound Heart” was shared on Twitter by Larry Zerner, who has also provided regular commentary on the Friday the 13th rights issue:
For those of you who like the Friday the 13th lawsuit, now @RealCliveBarker has sued for a declaratory judgment that he can terminate his 1986 transfer and get back his rights to the "Hellraiser" franchise. https://t.co/W3TpNhGj2W pic.twitter.com/bfA2YQtQjJ
— Larry Zerner (@Zernerlaw) June 15, 2020
Zerner also explains that Barker would not be able to regain his rights until December 19th, 2021, meaning that any production currently in the works could be released before this deadline. In addition, Barker could make a deal with the existing producers or another party before regaining his ownership of the material. Given that different rights appear to be carried for the movie and television projects, things could still be complicated for Barker. Zerner also points out what rights Barker would actually get back, commenting as so:
“Barker would get back his rights in the underlying story he wrote and also the rights in first script. He would not get any rights in things that were in any of the sequels that were added.”
What this might mean is that Barker will end up having greater creative and financial control over the Hellraiser franchise, as well as presumably limiting the risk of more sub-standard sequels being made. A similar situation is currently in place with the A Nightmare on Elm Street rights, whereby any future film pitches have to go through the Craven estate.
In any case, we’d be surprised if the Hellraiser reboot won’t make it to release before the end of next year, even with COVID-19 slowing down development. Furthermore, it’s difficult to see HBO making a deal for the series without ensuring that they’re legally in the clear. On a more positive note, though, we could finally see Barker produce another, more personal interpretation of the Cenobites, something that arguably hasn’t been achieved since the original 1987 film.

Star Wars Fans Are Devastated By Celebration 2020’s Cancellation
Star Wars fans received some expected but still disappointing news this Monday afternoon: Star Wars Celebration 2020 has been cancelled. Following the axing of various other major events, such as San Diego Comic-Con, in response to the coronavirus pandemic, it’s not surprising that SWC has now followed suit. It still hurts, though, seeing as this would’ve been a big deal for fans. The Celebration would’ve marked the 40th anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back.
As you’d expect, Star Wars lovers are crushed over the news, and are pouring their devastation out on social media. First of all, here’s the official announcement made earlier today, which reveals that the date of the next Celebration has already been locked in – and it won’t happen until August 2022. Yeah, that’s not exactly helping lift fans’ spirits.
Due to the impact of COVID-19, we’ve made the decision to cancel Star Wars Celebration 2020. While this news is disappointing, we’re happy to announce #StarWarsCelebration will return to Anaheim in 2022.

— Murke N'you (@Nivekian13) June 15, 2020
SDCC will serve up an online version of their con, after all, so it would make sense for SWC to follow suit. Even if they don’t, however, some are calling for the fans to get together to make their own celebration on the weekend starting Friday, August 28th.
With Star Wars celebration not happening, the Star Wars fans should take that weekend and post podcasts videos, and things like that to have their own celebration!
— Jeremy (@PositiveSWfan) June 15, 2020
This is disheartening news, for sure, both that the Celebration is cancelled in the first place and that the next one won’t be until August 2022. Choosing such a far-off date is probably a smart move on Lucasfilm’s behalf, though, rather than risk moving it to later this year, for example, when things likely won’t have simmered down yet. The good news is that the 2022 Celebration can mark another Star Wars anniversary instead – 20 years since Attack of the Clones! Actually, you know what, never mind.
