Globally, the film took in more than $156 million total this past weekend. Civil War is currently on pace to see its box office total top $1 billion this week, which will be yet another impressive milestone for the film.

But if you haven’t seen episode four yet, you shouldn't read any further because the trailer for episode five contains some spoilers that will ruin last night's episode for you if you haven't already seen it.

A security threat and a battery hob, Flash is replaced with other tools. Even Adobe has had it with Flash. But Google will drive another nail in Flash’s coffin by disabling it in Chrome by the end of the year.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/fb9768e196ee49beba6458ba69a6faff.jpg The "Internet of Things" and "smart home" devices aren't just a trend, they're the future. These emerging technologies are great for a number of reasons, the biggest of which are convenience and savings. Connecting devices in your house to each other and to the internet gives you a level of control and capability that seemed like science fiction just a few short years ago. And beyond that, smart home devices like smart thermostats and other gadgets can save you a ton of money by optimizing your house or apartment.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/aa82d0a2136c1d81ddb2f59c4211dcbd.jpgCaptain America: Civil War is the must-see movie right now. Seriously, it’s so much better than Batman v. Superman that you should treat yourself and see it in a theater rather than wait for it to hit Blu-ray and digital download. But regardless of which new film you’re planning to see this weekend, feel free to take your time and buy some popcorn because you won't need to catch the coming attractions — we've got all the best trailers from this past week right here!

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/a1e9e61bdc92b8c799f63d89ca61d9ab.pngTesla’s affordable new Model 3 electric car is the talk of the town at the moment, but you can’t actually play with a real one just yet. More than 400,000 excited fans already paid $1,000 towards the purchase of a Model 3, which is an impressive accomplishment for the relatively young carmaker (even though not all of them will end up buying the Model 3). One especially eager Model 3 buyer took it upon him to build the first interactive 3D render of the Model 3, and it'll keep you occupied while you wait for the Model 3 to become a reality.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/9935eb177506d90b60a7c36cd9fda5b5.pngZTE's first Axon smartphone was everything we've come to expect from China's no-brand smartphone manufacturers: cheap, powerful, and basically boring. If these leaked specs are true (and the price stays close to $250), this could cause more problems for the status quo. The specs come courtesy of Chinese telecom regulator TENAA, as spotted by VentureBeat. They're exactly what you would expect from a $600 flagship Android handset: Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 chipset, 5.5-inch QHD screen, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage (plus more through a microSD slot), a fingerprint sensor, and 20MP/8MP cameras for th…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/6d50098de64821c898053a76db8ed9f9.jpgMarvel and DC have competed at comic book shops and newsstands for decades, but the stakes are higher than ever as the two brands compete at the box office. With marketing and promotion included, the production budget of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice was likely north of $400 million, which makes its impressive $860 million worldwide haul slightly less impressive. But failing to hit $1 billion isn't the biggest mistake DC has ever made. In fact, it's not even close.
