Quick Glance: New The Naked Gun Film Starring Liam Neeson Set for 2025
  • The continuation of the popular The Naked Gun franchise is set to hit theaters next year, as announced. Paramount Global has revealed a series of release dates for 2025 and 2026, including new installments of last year's successful films like PAW Patrol and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Quick Glance: Trying Motorola's Bendable Smartphone-Watch Hybrid
  • Motorola's bendable smartphone-watch concept was showcased at MWC 2024. The idea of wrapping the phone around the wrist is impressive, but its execution raises questions.
