As fans and critics continue their vocal debate over the merits of the DC Extended Universe following the release of the first trailer for Zack Snyder’s Justice League film, Warner Bros’ recent announcement that Joss Whedon will be writing and directing a solo Batgirl film may well end up changing the course of the conversation. While it’s unclear if the Avengers director will be able to bridge the cultural gap between Marvel and DC film fans, his proven skill at writing assertive, fully-fledged female characters and the upcoming release of Patty Jenkins’ highly-anticipated Wonder Woman provide the embattled DCEU with much-needed PR ammunition in its favour....

But the company has just taken a step that would open up four potential new scenarios… Patently Apple spotted the update to the company’s trademark, adding the category “software rental.” As the site notes, this is a very specific step taken by Apple to extend the coverage of the trademark, so it doesn’t appear to be simply a standard move the company is taking to cover all the bases....

According to Microsoft, “The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if Windows Media Center opens a specially crafted Media Center link (.mcl) file that references malicious code.

Family Guy has tackled plenty of edgy material over the years, but season 16’s “Send In Stewie, Please” is perhaps the show’s darkest episode to date. It’s hard to imagine now, but Family Guy once struggled to find its audience. The Seth MacFarlane created show focuses on Peter Griffin and his oddball family and friends. While Peter is a loving husband and father, he’s also capable of incredibly dumb, selfish and downright evil acts, and he only seems to get worse as the show has progressed....
