You can grab a year of Peacock Premium for just $30

1 Share
You can stream movies like The Wild Robot, Conclave, Oppenheimer, and more on Peacock.

If you’d like to catch up on Oscar-nominated films like The Wild Robot ahead of the awards show next month, you might want to check out Peacock’s latest promotion.  

Through February 18th, new and lapsed subscribers can get one year of ad-supported Peacock Premium for $29.99 if you sign up now. That’s over half off its typical price of $79.99, and a $50 discount overall. It’s easy to get the deal: if you already have a free Peacock account, you’ll just need to apply the code WINTERSAVINGS. If you don’t already have an account, simply click on GET OFFER on the Peacock home page and set one up. Current Peacock Premium and Premium Plus subscribers are not eligible for this deal, unfortunately.

Along with The Wild Robot, Peacock’s library includes current and past Oscar nominees like Conclave, 2023’s Oppenheimer, and (soon) Wicked. Peacock also grants access to hundreds of other great films and shows ranging from Twisters, Yellowstone, and  Teacup to  live sports and next-day programming from NBC. Just be sure to mark your calendars, as the annual Premium plan will automatically renew for $79.99 once the promotion period’s over.

Other deals and discounts of note

  • You can purchase the Blink Video Doorbell with a Sync Module 2 for $34.99 ($35 off) at Amazon and Best Buy. The battery-powered video doorbell is our top pick if you’re on a budget. It’s a basic 1080p doorbell that gets the job done, offering essentials like motion detection, night vision, two-way audio, and a long two-year battery life. The included Sync Module 2 in this deal also allows for free local storage and on-demand live views. 
  • Dune fans can buy Lego’s Ornithopter for about $150 at ($15 off) Amazon and Target, which is one of the best prices we’ve seen on the set. Based on the Ornithopter design used by House Atreides, the set comes with 1,369 Lego pieces so you can assemble the winged flying machine complete with retractable wings, landing gear, and a cockpit. The set also includes Minifigs of various characters, including Paul Atreides, Chani, Baron Harkonnen, and more.
  • The Sonos Ace headphones are matching their all-time low price of $349 ($100 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Sonos’ online storefront. Sonos’ first pair of wireless headphones sound great and offer superb noise cancellation as well as a natural-sounding transparency mode.  The stylish headphones also support TV Audio Swap, so you can pair them with soundbars like the Sonos Arc, Sonos Beam, and Sonos Ray.

Marvel denies using AI for new Fantastic Four posters that have extra fingers and duplicate faces

1 Share

Marvel says that those new Fantastic Four posters were not, in fact, made by AI - despite those wonky little details.

Following the release of the first trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps, the studio shared a brand new series of posters on social media. The images show various civilians and children who are celebrating the Fantastic Four by way of rallying in a crowd or watching them on television. The first poster in the thread has garnered quite a strong reaction from fans who were quick to point out missing and duplicate fingers, duplicate faces, and other slightly warped details.

The images also have that strange texture (for lack of a better term) that a lot of AI-generated images seem to have, though this can be chalked up to the fact that the posters are meant to look old or vintage on purpose given that the new Fantastic Four movie takes places in the 1960s. You can check out the poster below.

According to The Wrap, however, a spokesperson for Marvel has denied that AI was used in the creation of the posters. Marvel has used AI in the past however, with the opening credit sequence for the Disney Plus series Secret Invasion being entirely AI-generated.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps hits theaters on July 25 as part of Marvel Phase 6. For more, check out our list of all the upcoming Marvel movies and shows you need to know about, or, check out our guide to all the Fantastic Four trailer Easter Eggs you might have missed.

Capcom announces a remaster of samurai classic Onimusha 2, coming to Steam this year

1 Share

During a showcase livestream today, Capcom followed up a brief look at its upcoming reboot Onimusha: Way of the Sword with a surprise announcement: a remaster of PlayStation 2 classic Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny, coming to consoles and PC sometime this year.

It's about time. We were happy to see Capcom dust off the first game in the series back in 2019, releasing it on PC in playable form for the first time in about 15 years (while there was technically a Windows port back in the day, good luck getting it running). While it's nice when Japanese developers make their back catalogs available on Steam, playing Onimusha: Warlords really just got us excited to see the superior sequel show up in remastered form, too. And then nothing happened for six years.

That streak is, thankfully, now broken. What's widely considered the best game in the series will be out on PC sometime this year.
