  • Three Apple original films to hit theaters this fall ahead of Apple TV+ debut

    Great for awareness.

    Strange they're taking this long to announce the theatrical releases. Usually movies get trailers and theatrical dates 6 months to a year in advance.
    These aren't normal theatrical releases.  They are limited run releases similar to what Netflix has been doing with certain films they want to get Oscar consideration.  For instance from Sept. 27 through Nov. 27 Netflix will release 10 new movies to theaters for varying lengths of time before the films show on the streaming service.  

    Some studios do the opposite with smaller films.  They will release them in theaters and on-demand for cable packages.

    Still a "theatrical release".
    Yes it is.  But no studio, Apple included, is going to make that kind of financial commitment for a limited opening/limited run feature.  Remeber, we're not talking wide release.  This is opening in select cities (maybe LA, Austin, Atlanta, Chicago, and NY... idk) in a few theaters for a couple of weeks.  Think art house release, not blockbuster.

    Gotcha but these details aren't official yet. Either way hope they do well.

  • Spotify iOS beta gains ability to make Siri music requests

    There is still anti competition going on by Apple. 
    They should be sued for having taken years to have third parties integrate Siri into music apps - a category they blocked.

    Secondly they should be sued for the fact you still need to say “on Spotify”, because leaving it out - the “default” - is still Apple Music. 

    iOS should include an option to set the defaults for music, navigation and other categories, so that Siri can take that setting as the ‘default’.

    Apple could do whatever the F they want with their products and inventions. Spotify should be grateful Apple even allowed them into the Siri ecosystem.

    If you don't like it, code a Siri knockoff for Spotify and hope it's successful.

    Not enough sex and gore. These shows will fail.
