The problem? According to the AWS Service Health Dashboard: At that time, a little after 1 PM ET, it looked like we’d be back to business soon. It turns out we were wrong. At 5:04 PM ET, AWS reported that while they “have executed a mitigation which is showing significant recovery in the US-EAST-1 Region,” they “still do not have an ETA for full recovery at this time.” At 7:45 PM ET, AWS reported: “With the network device issues resolved, we are now working towards recovery of any impaired services....

The upcoming Sonic The Hedgehog movie has just unveiled an infant version of the title character, and he might give the popular Baby Yoda a run for his money. This new look at the hyperactive hedgehog hero was shown off in a Japanese trailer, providing a possible glimpse at the backstory of Sega’s iconic mascot. The Sonic movie has had a rollercoaster of a year in 2019, with its initial trailer prompting a massive backlash regarding the film’s take on the title character – namely his freakish, humanlike teeth and bizarrely skinny frame....

Which actors are returning for Bad Boys for Life aka Bad Boys 3? The franchise’s original installment premiered 25 years ago, and was followed by the sequel in 2003. Fans of the buddy-cop series are likely curious which characters are back for Bad Boys for Life. The first two Bad Boys movies feature Will Smith and Martin Lawrence as Miami detectives chasing down underworld figures and corrupt law enforcement officials. Noted blockbuster filmmaker Michael Bay directed the original Bad Boys for a mere $19 million, as both Smith and Lawrence were mostly known for their television work at the time and weren’t considered bankable leads....

One of the premiere action franchises from the last few decades is due for a resurgence. After Bad Boys and Bad Boys II made an impression on audiences in the mid to late ’90s and early 2000s, Sony is finally trying to get a third film off the ground. Both Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are scheduled to return for Bad Boys for Life with Joe Carnahan tapped to direct, but everything else surrounding the film’s production has remained in flux....

In addition, Bank of America clients will no longer be able to overdraw from ATMs beginning in February, and the transfer fee associated with Bank of America’s Balance Connect service is also being removed come May. Bank of America said in its press release that, once these changes take effect, and combined with efforts beginning in 2010, overdraft revenue will be 97% lower than what it was in 2009. “We’ve been on this journey for ten years to really be more transparent, developing more relationship-driven approaches opposed to a fee driven approach, transaction-driven approach,” Don Vecchiarello, Senior Vice President and Media Relations Executive at Bank of America, said in a phone interview....

Sadly, Barb will not be returning in Stranger Things season 2. In season 1 of Stranger Things, Barb (Shannon Purser) was dragged to the Upside Down and unceremoniously killed by the Demogorgon after being left alone by the pool when Nancy left a party with Steve. The short-lived character proved popular with audiences when none of the other kids or adults seemed particularly bothered that Barb had just disappeared into thin air....

The full trailer for season 2 of HBO’s Emmy-winning Barry offers up more of what made the first season so great, and it throws in some interesting variables, too. The series has become a welcome addition to HBO’s lineup of half-hour comedies, not only adding to the premium cabler’s already impressive array of trophies, but also showing that though Veep and Silicon Valley were close to finishing out their respective runs, the network already has a show that can fill the void....

Electronic Arts had a lot of huge announcements concerning Battlefield V today, but some of the most interesting reveals deal with the minutia. One such change is how reviving allies will work in BFV. Unlike past games, the ability to revive a downed ally is not exclusive to medics as any member of a squad can help their teammates back up, but there are limits. This is far from the only major change that DICE outlined during today’s reveal and in a private session with us earlier in the week....

On the first night of Bachelor In Paradise, Blake Horstmann thrust himself right into the vortex of relationship drama, and Kristina Schulman planned to take advantage by tricking him with her date. She entered the show aware that she wasn’t the only woman Horstmann had his eyes on, and intended to make him pay for his indecisiveness. When Horstmann starred on Becca Kufrin’s season of The Bachelorette, he was an instant fan favorite, capturing the hearts of Kufrin and Bachelor Nation with his kindness and vulnerability....

A dramatic new teaser for ABC’s Bachelor in Paradise Season 6 shows nearly all of the contestants crying. It seems as though love is harder to find in paradise than any of the contestants initially thought. Bachelor in Paradise is a spinoff of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette set in Mexico that brings together former contestants (that didn’t find love on their respective reality shows) and offers them a second shot at finding a relationship....

With last week’s launch of macOS 10.13.4, Apple officially rolled out external GPU support as it promised at WWDC. As we noted last week, Apple has released updated documentation highlighting the details of eGPU implementation. It also provided updated documentation to better help developers with targeting external GPUs in their applications. On this week’s episode of Back to the Mac, we discuss eGPU support in macOS 10.13.4, including some of the finer details about external vs internal display support, GPU monitoring, and more....

Warning: SPOILERS for Batman Beyond #35 When Bruce Wayne grows too old to suit up, he must recruit a successor–and Batman Beyond is born. But what happens when that Batman goes bad, and joins forces with a villainous speedster? Simple: Bruce calls in some help from the future version of The Flash. Or should we say… Flash Beyond? The historians among the Batman Beyond fan base will be quick to point out that an inheritor of the Flash mantle has existed in Neo-Gotham’s world before....

Warning: SPOILERS for Batman: Arkham Knight The villain who calls himself the Arkham Knight may have started as a video game villain, but he’s officially made the leap to comics. Which is bad news for Batman, who is not ready for this battle. Those DC fans who played their way through the Batman: Arkham video game trilogy don’t need to be told why the Arkham Knight became a memorable villain. Introduced as a twisted, lethal reflection of Batman–with all of his training, tactics, and even knowledge of his personal life–the masked madman soon took over the game’s marketing....

There’s a good reason why the heroes’ new matching red and white suits are prominently featured in Avengers: Endgame marketing, Kevin Feige says. It’s another milestone year for the MCU, coming off an extremely successful 2018 where the franchise celebrated its 10th anniversary with hits like Black Panther and Avengers: Infinity War. This year, after rolling out their first female led project with Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel (which is already a billion dollar earner), the MCU is set to wrap up the 22-film arc it’s been exploring since 2008’s Iron Man....

New evidence has emerged hinting that Captain Marvel could appear in Avengers: Infinity War. When Infinity War hits theaters next year, it will be to the MCU what The Avengers was to blockbuster filmmaking. With nearly every Marvel character to date involved, the film aims to be the spectacle to end all spectacles. Along with the core Avengers, we’ll see the Guardians, Spider-Man, Black Panther, and Doctor Strange in on the action....

The classic 1960s kids show The Banana Splits is becoming a horror movie, and now, Syfy has released an official trailer for the bizarre project. Every generation has its share of hit shows targeted at children, and for many growing up in the late 1960s, one of those was The Banana Splits. Produced by the legendary team of William Hannah and Joseph Barbera, and designed by Sid and Marty Kroft, The Banana Splits ran for three seasons on NBC, and was an early mix of live-action and animation....

Another image from the set of The Batman has leaked online, this time of a murder victim. On top of director Matt Reeves’ tease of the batsuit in a test video, a plethora of set images and videos have made their way online. Some are of the full suit (minus the cape), batcycle, and Bruce Wayne getting attack by a Gotham gang. The newest reboot will take a look at the early days of Batman’s vigilante career in Gotham, a city inhabited by a slew of iconic villains....

Warning: SPOILERS for Batman #88 There’s a new creative team in Gotham, launching Batman into a new web of criminal killers and masterminds. But after the first issues set the stage for Batman’s new mission in Gotham, the biggest threat has just been killed in DC’s official preview for Batman #88. At least, that’s what Catwoman and Batman are being led to believe. As much as James Tynion IV’s debut issue helped set the tone for his coming run – featuring new Bat-gadgets, and a life without Alfred Pennyworth – it also dialed the mystery and ominous foreboding to its limits....

WARNING: Major spoilers for Avengers: Endgame. The final fight scene in Avengers: Endgame was almost even longer, as additional scenes were filmed that didn’t make the final cut. One of the biggest questions that Marvel Studios and directors Anthony and Joe Russo had to answer in Avengers: Endgame was how all the characters who were dusted in Avengers: Infinity War would return. Theories wondered if the Quantum Realm, Soul World, or an alternate reality would solve the problem, but many also wanted to know when these characters would be back....
