Twitter’s Going Crazy Over The New Fast & Furious 9 Trailer

Fast & Furious 9 – or F9, as they seem to be calling it now – is quickly approaching its theatrical release and Universal wants to make sure that everyone and their grandmother knows that it’s on the way. Then again, given the global fanbase that the series has, it’s not like they really have to do much work to market it, right?

Still, after a far too long period of radio silence, the floodgates truly opened up this week. From teasers to character posters and more, we’ve got a lot from the Fast & Furious camp over the past several days and it all culminated in today’s explosive full-length trailer. Teasing more stunts, more chase scenes and more muscles, it was an absolute treat for fans. And that’s all without even mentioning the surprise reveal at the end that Han is back (which We Got This Covered told you was happening months ago).

So, it only makes sense that Twitter is now overflowing with folks expressing their excitement for the upcoming ninth installment in the seemingly never-ending series. And you can check out a sample of what people are saying down below:

Clearly, fans are pumped for the movie and no doubt it’s going to be another billion dollar box office behemoth for Universal. And with the series reportedly coming to an end after the tenth film, it’ll be interesting to see what kind of seeds it plants for both the finale and presumably, the countless spinoffs that will follow once the mainline movies have concluded.

But staying in the here and now, and Fast & Furious 9 drives into theaters on May 22nd, and make no mistake about, there will indeed be justice for Han.

This Cybertruck-inspired iPhone 11 Pro costs $15K and isn’t made by Tesla or Apple

Phones are rounded rectangles now. Have been for years — ever since the iPhone killed the QWERTY slider dead. They’re getting rounder and rounder, in fact, as manufacturers continue to figure out how to bend OLED screens and raw metals to their will. They’re far too samey, unless you count an array of sci-fi inspired foldables that are so far basically just recreating the flip phone.

I want something edgier to exist in the world. And now, just as Tesla’s Cybertruck shook up the world of automobile design, a Cybertruck-inspired phone has emerged to maybe, possibly, OK probably not inspire the same sort of design in phones.

The exorbitantly priced Cyberphone, which is effectively just a fancy shell around an Apple iPhone 11 Pro, was...

Markets blogger Zero Hedge suspended from Twitter after doxxing a Chinese scientist

Twitter says it has permanently suspended markets blog Zero Hedge’s Twitter account, @zerohedge, for violating the company’s platform manipulation policy. On Wednesday, Zero Hedge posted a blog that doxxed a Chinese scientist and strongly suggested without evidence that the scientist created the strain of coronavirus that’s currently spreading around the world.

That blog lists a name, photo, email, and phone number that are reportedly tied to the scientist, and suggested that readers “pay [him] a visit” if they wanted to know “what really caused the coronavirus pandemic.” BuzzFeed News reported on Zero Hedge’s blog that doxxed the scientist earlier this evening, ahead of the Twitter suspension.

Ron Howard Says He Had A Blast Making Solo: A Star Wars Story

Star Wars has always been a story about family and the legacies that we each give ourselves over to, rebel against, or build for ourselves. The same is true on the production side, particularly since that galaxy far, far away was annexed by the House of Mouse. Most notably, Leia Organa actress Carrie Fisher’s daughter, Billie Lourd, appeared throughout the Sequel Trilogy as Lt. Connix and eventually stood in (with a bit of computer-generated assistance) as a young Leia herself in The Rise of Skywalker after her mother’s passing.

That tradition has also extended behind the camera, as last November’s fourth chapter of the Disney+ streaming series The Mandalorian, “Sanctuary,” was directed by Jurassic World co-star Bryce Dallas Howard. She, in turn, is the eldest daughter of Academy Award winner Ron Howard, whose performing pedigree goes all the way back to his time playing Opie Taylor on The Andy Griffith Show during the 1960s. The Howard patriarch also got final directing credit on the 2018 film, Solo: A Star Wars Story (written by Jonathan Kasdan, the son of Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi co-writer Lawrence Kasdan), after taking over from original directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller.

Speaking with Collider’s Steve Weintraub at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, Ron Howard revealed that his daughter had accompanied him during his time on Solo, playing padawan to the filmmaking Jedi, to learn the finer details of directing, and that “she had a couple of pretty great suggestions.” He described the process of picking up Solo mid-production as “almost a rewrite and a continuation,” having to rearrange many of the pieces that Lord and Miller had already put in place while building new material around them.

Howard, however, was undaunted by the undertaking, explaining:

“I had a blast making that movie, and it did remind me that I really enjoy that kind of playful storytelling and the action, and I love tech. I love actors more, but it’s great what you can offer audiences.”

Of course, Solo offered audiences a look into the untold history of one of the Star Wars universe’s most adored characters, but was significantly hamstrung by its need to cast a different actor to fill Harrison Ford’s unfillable boots, which one reviewer called “a cinematic cardinal sin.”

The decision incited the fury of some of the franchise’s most vocal devotees, but Howard recalled advice that he received from the galactic grandmaster himself, George Lucas, regarding their relationship with those diehard enthusiasts. “It’s for the fans,” Lucas told him: “And yet you have to have the courage to hear them but tell the story you want to tell.”

Solo: A Star Wars Story is now available on Blu-ray, DVD, and digital download, while the first season of The Mandalorian is streaming on Disney+, with a second season confirmed for later this year.
