Chris Hemsworth Reportedly Eyes Allan Quartermain Movie
Chris Hemsworth has possibly found his next franchise.
The Tracking Board reports that the Avenger is eyeing the role of Allan Quatermain, a big time huntsman who debuted in H.Rider Haggard’s 1885 novel King Solomon’s Mine.
Details of the plot are yet to be revealed, though Quatermain is no stranger to the big screen, and he's commonly regarded as one of the major influences behind Indiana Jones.
There have been recent attempts to create a contemporary version of Quatermain, including a languishing Dreamworks project starring Sam Worthington. Sean Connery played Quatermain in Alan Moore’s loosely adapted 2003 film of The League of Extraordinary Gentleman, but Hemsworth would obviously be stepping into the shoes of a much younger Quatermain.
New Audio-Technica Gaming Headsets Incoming
Audio-Technica entered the gaming headset market back in 2013, with two well-received models: the ATH-AG1 and ATH-ADG1. Two years later, the company is preparing to launch improved and re-engineered models: the AG1x (isolation) and ADG1x (open air), both of which will debut on December 3 for an RRP of AUD $399.
“We’ve spent the last two years testing and listening to all the feedback on the original models,” said Wesley Von Grabill, Audio-Technica’s National Brand Manager in Australia. “Now we’ve made the necessary adjustments to take both the in-gaming experience and clear communication to the next level.”
Star Wars: The Force Awakens Rated PG-13
According to Filmratings.com, Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens will have a PG-13 rating due to "sci-fi action violence." It is the second Star Wars film to be rated PG-13 after 2005's Revenge of the Sith.
With less than a month to go until the Force awakens, hype is rising at ludicrous speed with analysts predicting the movie will bring in $170,000,000 in its first weekend.
As we get closer, the tight grip on the movie's story and background is also quickly slipping.

Hemsworth Says Thor 3 Needs Guardians-esque Humor
Thor star Chris Hemsworth shared a few thoughts on Marvel's third Norse-centric film, saying he'd like to see Ragnarok take a page or two out of Guardian's of the Galaxy's playbook.
"I think
needs to be injected with that sort of smart wit and unexpected kind of humor, kind of what James Gunn came in and did with Guardians
," Hemsworth told Cinema Blend. "It was like off center and unpredictable, and I think we can definitely use a dose of that, you know?"
With Flight of the Conchords director Taika Waititi on board to helm the film for Marvel, Hemsworth has high hopes for Thor: Ragnarok, especially when it comes to delivering a humorous flick for the fans.
EarthBound Creator Has No Plans for Another Sequel

Unofficial App Allows for PS4 to PC Streaming
People can stream from their PlayStation 4 to their PlayStation Vita, but a newly developed program hopes to bring remote play functionality to the PC as well.
Appropriately named Remote Play PC, the unofficial program sets out to do exact as its straightforward name implies: turning your PC into a recognizable remote play device, and letting your PS4 stream gameplay to it.
The developer of the program, who goes by the name Twisted, has some experience with Sony's hardware and getting the remote play feature to work on unsupported devices. The official version released for Android was limited to Sony Xperia phones and tablets, but Twisted managed to get it to work on a much wider range of Android devices.
