Seinfeld: 4 Times We Hated Elaine

Seinfeld is a famous sitcom TV series, which was created by Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld. It aired on NBC on July 5, 1989. In this series, George Costanza, Elaine Benes, and Cosmo Kramer play the characters of Jason Alexander, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Michael Richards, respectively. Jerry Seinfeld portrays a fictional version of himself in the series and is in the lead role. Elaine is Jerry’s ex-girlfriend and now one of his best friends. George, Elaine, Cosmo, and Jerry are four best friends in the series, but Elaine is somewhere different from the other three. She experiences a lot of troubles in the series and desperately desires to get married. In this article, we have discussed some of the scenes from the series where fans hated Elaine.

When She Tries To Convert A Gay Man

If we talk about the romantic life of Elaine, she appears to be an insane personality. In her desire to get married early, she desperately tries to find the right person for her, but every time she finds herself in various complicated situations. Elaine spends some time with Roberts and soon learns that he is gay. After knowing that Robert is a gay man, she tries to convert him, but Robert disappoints her at the end and returns to his real form.

When She “Germifies” Peggy

Peggy is Elaine’s colleague at J. Peterman and believes that Elaine is a lustful woman with multiple partners. Elaine does not like this attitude of Peggy, and knowing the fact that Peggy is a “germaphobe,” she spreads her germs on several objects in Peggy’s office, such as doorknobs, keyboards, and more. It proves that Elaine is a hard-hearted and unsympathetic woman, and that is the reason why most of the fans hated Elaine in the series.

When She Gets Babu Bhatt Deported

Jerry has to go out of town for a comedy stint, so he gives the responsibility of taking care of all his emails to Elaine. But, she does not take care of his mails carefully because the visa renewal form of a poor restaurateur Babu Bhatt, has been sent to the mailbox of Jerry in error. Because of this reason, Babu Bhatt is pulled off by the INS and deported to his country, Pakistan. However, it is the fault of both Jerry and Elaine.

When She Abandons The Gang

Elaine dates Kevin for a very short time and decides to end this relationship. However, she wants to continue with Kevin as a friend. Jerry tells Elaine that Kevin is a “Bizarro” version of himself, but she decides to get closer to Kevin’s group. Elaine wants to choose the new group of friends, and that can be considered as a betrayal. But, in the end, it does not happen because Elaine does not fit into Kevin’s group and is consequently told never to return.

In this article, we have discussed some of the scenes from the series where fans did not like Elaine’s character. We have concluded that Elaine is not a woman with a great character as she tries to betray her group of friends, germifies Peggy, and is not also a responsible person. These are the reasons why people hated her in the series.

Recasting Wes Craven’s Scream in 2020

Scream is one of the best horror slasher films, which was directed by Wes Craven and released in the year 1996. The film was written by Kevin Williamson. In this film, David Arquette and Neve Campbell are in the lead roles and portray the characters of Dewey Riley and Sidney Prescott, respectively. The film’s story revolves around Sidney Prescott, a high school student who lives in Woodsboro, a fictional town in California. She becomes the target of Ghostface, who is a mysterious killer and wears a Halloween costume throughout the film. Various cast members have given nail-biting performances in this film, but what if Scream was to be made in 2020? Several actors have great potential to replace the old cast members of Scream in today’s date. In this article, we have listed some of the best actors whom the filmmakers could consider to cast in the 2020 version of Scream.

Zendaya As Sidney Prescott

Zendaya is one of the youngest actresses in Hollywood. She has already impressed the audience with her perfect and supporting role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In the HBO series Euphoria, she is in the lead role and portrays the character of Rue. She also won an Emmy award for playing the remarkable role of Rue in Euphoria. She is a highly talented and skilled actress who could easily fit into the character of Sidney Prescott. The character of Sidney experiences real trauma because of the threats on her own life and the loss of her mother. She has to overcome great struggles to make it out alive. In this way, Sidney’s character is similar to Rue’s character portrayed by Zendaya in the Euphoria TV series. Also, after watching Zendaya playing the role of MJ in the Spider-Man movies of the MCU, she could be considered as an excellent replacement for Sidney Prescott in the 2020 version of Scream.

Charles Melton As Billy Loomis

Charles Melton is a brilliant actor in Hollywood. He is better known for his fantastic role as Reggie in the CW’s TV series Riverdale. He has also played a famous character of Daniel Bae in the romantic film The Sun is Also a Star. The filmmakers could consider him an excellent choice for playing the role of Billy Loomis if the film Scream was to be made in 2020. He has great experience in playing a romantic lead role and has a charming personality that can hush audiences before switching into Billy’s revengeful side. Melton can win the heart of fans through his stunning performance and personality. In this way, he could fit easily into the character of Billy Loomis in the recasting of Scream.

China Anne McClain As Tatum Riley

China Anne McClain is another young and talented actress in Hollywood. She has played a crucial role in the CW’s TV series Black Lightning. She portrays the character of Jennifer Pierce in this series by displaying genuine convictions in her boundaries and beliefs, which are some of the qualities similar to Tatum Riley. Tatum portrays the character of Rose McGowan in Wes Craven’s original film Scream. China Anne McClain could be the perfect choice for playing the character of Rose in place of Tatum because she might expertly handle Tatum’s cool-girl vibes and genuinely care for Sidney, who is the best friend of Rose in the original film Scream.

Jack Mulhern As Randy Meeks

Randy Meeks is a kind of character who has a vast and complete knowledge of horror movies, and Jack would be ideal for playing the role of Randy in the 2020 version of Scream as he is similar to Randy in various aspects. Jack portrays the character of Grizz in Netflix’s TV series The Society. Grizz is an intelligent and quiet student who lives in West Ham, which is a fictional town. Randy has an astute nature, and similarly, Grizz also possesses strong self-confidence and beliefs in his knowledge. In this way, Jack Mulhern could play the role of Randy Meeks in a much better way in the 2020 version of Stream.

After discussing some of the best actors that might be considered for the recasting of Scream in 2020, we have concluded that all of the above-discussed actors are very talented and have enough potential to replace the old cast members of Wes Craven’s original film Scream.

Recasting 2000’s X-Men In 2020

The X-Men movies are famous in Hollywood among fans. The X-Men franchise first launched its film in 2000 with some of the most famous cast members, including the iconic actor Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, James Marsden, Famke Janssen, and more. These movies are based on Marvel Comics. Bryan Singer directed the first X-Men movie that became one of the most remarkable adaptations of the Marvel Comic books. Hugh Jackman is playing the character of Wolverine in the X-Men franchise, who is the center of attraction in all X-Men movies. But, who would be cast in the X-Men movies if it was made in 2020? This article has discussed some of the best cast members who can replace the old cast members in the X-Men franchise.

Aidan Turner As Wolverine

Hugh Jackman plays a vital role in the X-Men franchise as Wolverine, and it is not an easy task for everyone to replace him. But, Aidan Turner is one of the best actors to fit in the role of Wolverine because of his build and a 3-inch shorter height than Hugh Jackman. According to Marvel Comics, Wolverine is a character with a short build, and Turner is a perfect replacement for Jackman if the X-Men movies were made in 2020. Turner has already worked in some of the blockbuster movies, such as The Hobbit trilogy, where he plays the character of Kili, and this could be an advantage to him in playing the lead role in the X-Men movies.

Bryce Dallas Howard As Jean Grey

Bryce Dallas Howard would be a great choice to play the character of Jean Grey in the X-Men movies. However, Janssen is a much bigger star than Bryce, but she can replace her in 2020’s X-Men movies if it happens. Bryce has already played a Marvel character as Gwen Stacy in the film, Spider-Man 3 and also played a remarkable role in the Jurassic World franchise. But she has not played the role of a superhero so far. This could be an excellent opportunity for her to play as a superhero if the X-Men franchise considers her in their new X-Men movies.

Jensen Ackles As Cyclops

Jensen Ackles is an excellent choice to consider for Cyclops’ role as he has been playing a lead role in the television series, Supernatural, for the last fifteen years. In real life, Jensen Ackles is relatively younger than James Marsden to play Scott Summers more maturely. If the X-Men movies were to be made in 2020, it could also show the chemistry between Jensen Ackles and Bryce Howard, indicating the romance between Jean and Scott in a much better way. Also, Jensen Ackles is all set to play the role of the leading superhero in the upcoming season 3 of the famous TV series, The Boys as Soldier Boy. So, the fans would love to see him playing the character of Cyclops.

Sonequa Martin-Green As Storm

The character of Storm is played by Halle Berry in the X-Men franchise. Sonequa Martin-Green could be a great choice to play the role of Ororo Munroe/Storm in the new X-Men movies if it happens. Sonequa Martin-Green is currently one of the rising stars in Hollywood and has a lot of experience. She has played a significant role as Sasha Williams in the TV series, The Walking Dead, and she is playing the character of Michael Burnham in the current television series, Star Trek: Discovery. Sonequa Martin-Green could be the ideal actress to replace Halle Berry as Storm.

In this article, we have mentioned some of the most famous rising Hollywood stars who can replace the old cast in the X-Men movies. If the X-Men movies were to be made in 2020, all of the above-discussed actors could be considered to recast the X-Men movies.

Paul Anderson Has Hinted that the 6th Season of Peaky Blinders is Arriving Soon

With no films in theaters, almost zero social gatherings, football matches in empty stadiums, and negativity in full swing, we need to now look towards the television to get us through this long night. And there is some good news-we now have a show that we can anxiously wait for.

If you aren’t well caught up with all the reports about Peaky Blinders that kept on coming during the lockdown, I am obliged to remind you that this will be the final season of the beloved show (if the words of the cast are to be believed).

However, the good news is that the sixth season might not be very far as Paul Anderson, who is well known for playing the character Arthur Shelby Jr. in the British gangster series, has alluded to the fact that the coveted sixth season of Peaky Blinders is coming to the screens very soon.

Anderson broke the news to his Instagram followers (over 500,000) and also revealed the latest artwork for his character Arthur. The 42-year-old actor wrote that the sixth season is very well on its way, and the anxious wait of the fans will end soon. He added a popular hashtag in his post ‘#comingfknsoon.’

The post made his followers upbeat (most of them know him because of the show) who have been patiently waiting for the sixth season ever since the fifth season ended itself on a thrilling cliffhanger. The fifth season premiered on BBC last year.

Look away if you haven’t yet seen the fifth season. (Spoiler alert!)

In the final few seconds of the season, we see the lead character Tommy Shelby (played by Cillian Murphy) reeling with suicidal thoughts with his forehead in front of a gunpoint and his finger on the trigger. The season had ended at that moment, leaving Tommy Shelby’s fate in the midst of dreadful uncertainty. Fans have been itching since then to know whether he had pulled the trigger or not.

Despite the reports, speculations, interviews, and social media fanaticism, it is quite clear that it will not be before 2022 that the season will arrive on our screens.

Though under normal circumstances, we would have had more factual information because the production was due to start in March of this year.

Anthony Byrne, one of the stellar names behind the creation of the show, recently expressed his disappointment over the fact that the production had to be halted in March. The reason why he sounded upset is that before the lockdown was imposed, all the pre-production work had already been done, and the filming equipment was already tried and tested. The lockdown was imposed just days before the production team had to begin their work.

“It’s a real shame,” he said.

Byrne also spoke to Digital Spy, in which he sounded optimistic about getting the show done by the end of 2021. He said that it would take at least six months of editing after the filming, which will hopefully be finished by June or July of next year.

LG Wing: Display, Performance, And Other Things to Know

Recently, LG announced its new smartphone named LG Wing, which will be available from the three leading wireless carriers (Verizon, AT&T. and T-Mobile) in the United States. The company is trying to break the ceiling and introduce something beyond imagination. Under their later Explorer Project, they brought the LG Wing smartphone with two swiveling displays. It has multiple incredible features and tools that regular Android smartphones lack. The device uses LG’s UX 9.0 interface and makes an ideal gadget for gamers, videographers, or phone photographers. To know more about this device, check the detailed guide below:

Design

LG Wing’s display is nothing like the regular smartphones you see in the market these days. When you unbox the phone, it might look like a typical smartphone until you pull the mini-display hidden underneath the main screen. As soon as you take the mini-display out, you enter the ‘Swivel Mode.’ Due to this feature, it has a thicker body and is more massive in weight. The main screen has a tall glass panel with curved sides. The back of the phone has a glossy finish, and a massive multi-lens camera bump is mounted.

The swiveling part is very smooth, and every time you open or close the mini-display, you will find it gliding with the chassis while making a pop sound to (un)lock the device in place. The Swivel Mode displays the back of the main screen. Due to this feature, the company had to drop the front-facing camera and introduce a pop-up selfie camera. Every time you open the pop-up camera, you will see an animation for a fraction of a second on your screen. The device has an in-display fingerprint sensor, and the front and the rear screen is protected with Gorilla Glass 5.

Due to the design, the LG Wing could only get an IP54 rating and remove the 3.5mm port. It has bottom-firing loudspeakers and a USB-C port for charging.

Displays

You might be impressed by the screen size of the device, i.e., 6.8-inch OLED as its main display and a 3.9-inch OLED for the mini or secondary display. In today’s date, when other Android smartphone companies are offering Full HD+ display, LG Wing is stuck at 1080p only. Both the displays also have only 60Hz refresh rates, whereas the rival brands offer refresh rates between 90Hz to 144Hz. The primary screen has 2,460 x 1,080 resolution and 20.5:9 display ratio with 395ppi, and the secondary screen offers 1,240 x 1,080, 419ppi with 1.15:1 display ratio. Its high pixel density shows vibrant colors and deep blacks on the screen.

The device offers multiple display mode choices for customizing the display color temperature, saturation, and more. It also has an in-display sensor for unlocking the device, but unfortunately, the in-display is way too slow than the other smartphones with similar sensors.

Camera

The device is equipped with stunning cameras, which are great for budding or amateur photographers. LG has introduced a gimbal mode for the camera when you use the device in Swivel Mode. The device has a 64MP OIS EIS wide primary camera with 13MP ultra-wide (ƒ/1.9, 1.0μm, 117-degree FoV) and a 12MP ultra-wide (ƒ/2.2, 1.4μm, 120-degree FoV) lenses at the back. It also has a 32MP wide (ƒ/1.9, 0.8μm, 80-degree FoV) camera in the front. The camera also has a Night Mode for capturing impressive shots in dim lighting. The front camera supports Portrait Mode for a focused selfie.

You cannot use the camera with Swivel mode and are restricted from using the video-only app. You can shoot videos in 4K quality at 60fps and 1080p at 60fps. Its stabilization feature lets you shoot stable videos even when you hold the phone with only one hand.

Performance

The LG Wing is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G processor and an Adreno 620 GPU that makes it a little less potent than the smartphones with Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor. But it has both sub-6GHz and mmWave 5G support, which is the latest in the market. The processor it uses is suitable for performing everyday tasks. The dual-display on the device is creating a lot more disruption than expected. Both the displays can run two different apps simultaneously, which will require the device to have more power, which it lacks.

Moreover, many apps are still not functional with dual screens, so they might not be able to run them on this device. This smartphone is offering 8GB of RAM with 128GB of storage space and 256GB of expandable storage.

Battery

This smartphone comes with a 4,000mAh battery that can last up to almost two days. But due to the dual-screen, the device will require more juice, meaning that the battery will drain faster. The battery life of this phone majorly depends on how much you’re using the Swivel Mode. This device supports wireless charging at a peak rate of 12W. It charges at the rate of 25W with the in-box charger and its USB-C-to-USB-C cable.

Conclusion

Overall the LG Wing smartphone stands somewhere in the middle. It is not too impressive, and it’s not boring, like regular Android smartphones either. It uses Android 10 software and offers satisfactory performance and features as well. The original shortcuts are impressive but are not as smooth as they should be. Currently, this device is retailing for $999 at T-Mobile and Verizon, and for $1049 at AT&T.

Matthew McConaughey Reveals His Mother’s Reaction to His Stardom Hurt Him

In an interview, Matthew McConaughey shared that he was hurt by his mother’s reaction to his growing popularity and fame.

McConaughey is an American producer and one of the brilliant actors in the industry. He gained popularity for his performance in the comedy movie titled, Dazed and Confused. Later he featured in The Wedding Planner, Failure to Launch, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Magic Mike, The Wolf of Wall Street, Dallas Buyers Club, Interstellar, and many more. McConaughey received the prestigious Academy Award for Best Actor for his role as a cowboy in Dallas Buyers Club.

The actor lost his father in 1992 when he was stepping up the staircase of success. He shared that he missed his mother during that time, as she became a different person from her son’s fame.

In an interview with 5 Live’s Headliners podcast on BBC Radio, he shared that he needed her the most at that time. He had already lost his father from his life, and when he used to call his mother for emotional support, he did not find his mom on the other side of the phone; she had become the superfan who wanted to know about his career. She started to love his fame more and wanted the same for herself in a certain way, which hurt McConaughey.

Matthew revealed that then he started limiting the conversations with his mother for several years. He used to give her a call on Sunday, but he could not talk his heart out as he did not want to provide her with any information or details about his professional life. He added if he shared anything with his mom, it would be published in the newspaper the next day. McConaughey tried to make her understand that it was for her and him. However, she did not understand it for a while.

The Oscar-winning actor revealed that he used to be startled when his private matters became public. As he investigated, he realized it was his mother behind the controversial leaks.

He remembered one incidence when his mom was giving a TV crew a tour of his childhood home. And when he asked her about this, she said, she did not think Matthew would find it out.

McConaughey described those years as tough ones. Still, he does not distance himself from his proud mom. Matthew understands that it was not wholly her fault, and he also should have made some boundaries. He concluded by saying that the mother-son relationship has come to the other side of it, and it is good now.

How to Create an Android App Out of Any Website?

Android smartphone users must be aware of the permissions they have granted to the apps for functioning properly. These permissions also fetch them timely updates, news, messages, etc. Many apps run in the background to keep you updated, but it damages your device’s battery and rapidly drains the juice. Some of the most popular apps like Snapchat, Facebook, Amazon, etc. are continually draining your device’s performance as well. The best solution to this problem is that you should start converting the websites into an app, and the Hermit app will help you to do so.

Introducing Hermit

Hermit is a web browser, like Google Chrome, Firefox, etc. The only significant difference it creates is letting you turn any website of your choice into an app and keep it safe on your device’s home screen. It will help you create a new lite app from the websites you visit. Hermit will show you an entire inventory of apps it can create, and you can find everything via their categories. If you don’t find the app you want to add to your home screen, then insert the URL of that website, and Hermit will automatically create an app out of it.

Note that these lite apps are not replacing the apps you can find on the Google Play Store, as they lack some functionalities. In case you use a social media app like Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, then your experience won’t be as smooth as the original app. You cannot even upload images on the lite app as the website doesn’t have that feature yet. But if you use Facebook’s lite app, then the experience will be better than the original app, and it won’t even drench your device’s battery.

However, you can use Hermit as a replacement platform for the old apps that don’t have any official support and have stopped working.

Why Choose Hermit Over Chrome?

If you have used Google Chrome on your Android device, you might be aware that even Chrome lets you create apps from the websites you visit. This might make you wonder about the importance and necessity of the Hermit browser. Chrome is a good browser, but it falls short in terms of features when converting a site into an app.

The significant difference in the apps created in the Hermit browser is that they function as self-contained apps. But if you create a Lite app on Chrome, it acts as a browser tab. In simple terms, it means that the app created via Chrome will direct you to the website and open a new Chrome tab. The self-contained app created in Hermit starts the Lite app as its browser rather than directing you to a new webpage. It won’t start a new page if you have already opened the website in Hermit. Hermit’s Lite apps open as an individual, but the Chrome Lite apps start as a part of the browser.

This also allows the Hermit’s Lite app to create a space for customization. You can change the settings and create a customized space on Hermit, but Chrome does not have that feature.

How to Customize Hermit’s Lite Apps?

Hermit offers universal and individual settings so you can easily apply the settings on the app. Each Lite app follows a different set of rules, which you can customize according to your preferences. The permissions granted to each app will be different from each other. So, you can allow some apps to access the microphone and block others for the same. Following are some of the things you can customize on the Lite app:

1. Open the app in full-screen mode

2. Turn on the toggle for ‘Do Not Track.’

3. Block inappropriate ads

4. Add a “Scroll to Top” button

5. Pull from top to refresh

6. Enable Data Saver mode to save your mobile data

7. Customize image loading option

8. Customize the app icon and theme

9. Allow or deny location permissions

10. Grant or block access to the camera, microphone, photos, videos, and files.

Hermit Requirements

The Hermit app works well with Android 5 Lollipop and higher versions. If you have Android KitKat, then you will find all the apps inside a single window. The Hermit app is available for free, but you can also get your hands on the Premium version for $5.99. The free version doesn’t offer as much flexibility and feature as the Premium version.

Conclusion

While using Hermit, it would be better to uninstall the original apps and see the difference it makes in the battery life of your Android smartphone. Using Hermit, you can also remove the continuously failing or crashing apps and get a better performance in its alternate Lite app. With Hermit, you can find both native and alternative Lite app versions of the originals.
