What movie will you watch? Jurassic World
Fantastic Four The Fantastic Four return in this brand-new reboot distributed by 20th Century Fox. The team returns with another origin story, this time more accurate to the comics. Reed Richards (Miles Teller) is a young genius who is destined to do great things. He's been chosen by famous Dr. Franklin Storm (Reg E. Cathey) to partake in an experiment that aims to make a major scientific breakthrough - interdimensional travel. Chosen along with Richards are Dr. Storm's children, Sue Storm (Kate Mara), Johnny Storm (Michael B. Jordan), as well as Richards' childhood friend Ben Grimm (Jamie Bell) and programmer Victor Domashev (Toby Kebbell). Something terrible happens during the experiment and the group has a devastating experience in the new dimension. They all emerge with different powers, all of them related to how the characters themselves are. It is up to the team to not only learn how to control their powers and use them for good, but to save the world from the threat of Domashev, who suffered a terrible transformation and adopted the name Doctor Doom.

Chris Pratt stars as Owen Grady, a Velociraptor trainer who works at Jurassic World. Bryce Dallas Howard plays the park's operations manager, Claire Dearing. In order to boost the amount of visitors, the park's geneticists create a new hybrid dinosaur. When the dinosaur escapes and endangers all of the park's attendees, as well as Dearing's nephews, Gray (Ty Simpkins) and Zack Mitchell (Nick Robinson), it is up to Grady and the park security to stop it.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to be ant? Explore the Earth when you're the size of a crumb? With the new Marvel movie Ant-Man, Paul Rudd does exactly that. He plays Scott Lang, a former criminal given the opportunity of a lifetime - to take Hank Pym's (Michael Douglas) place as the Ant-Man. The secret of the Ant-Man technology has been guarded by Pym for years, but he needs to find a successor, as Pym is getting too old. Given Lang's skills as an expert thief, he is the perfect candidate for the job. However, Darren Cross (Corey Stoll) has other plans. After taking over Pym's company, Cross creates a militarized version of the Ant-Man suit - the Yellowjacket suit. It is up to Lang to stop Cross and his plan. Ant-Man has been a very important character in Marvel Comics and is finally getting his first live-action film appearance. Although there are changes to the story, like every other book-to-movie adaptation, it definitely looks to be a hit, adding a comedic tone similar to Guardians of the Galaxy.
FIFA 16 introduces women's teams Women's national teams to become playable OMAR HADDOU Special to the A-Blast EA Sports recently released ground-breaking news for FIFA fans. The company is adding women's national teams to their top-selling franchise. The news arrived just in time as the Women's World Cup is this summer, taking place in Canada. The game will feature national teams from Germany, USA, France, Sweden, England, Brazil, Canada, Australia, Spain, China, Italy and Mexico. All teams are playable on modes such as Match Day, Offline Tournament and Online
Friendly Matches. Women's national teams will compete exclusively against other women's national teams. This revolutionary event marks the first major use of women in a well-known sports video game. Since there are only 12 teams, EA Sports took the time to head scan every woman player and recreate them in virtual form. With all-new in-game animations, 3D player modeling and life-like head scans, the women's national teams are genuinely rendered in the game. From running motion to facial animations and hair movement, players will look and move just like they do during real competition. Alex Morgan is one of the huge faces in the new game. She, along the rest of the United States Women's National Team, were heavily featured in the trailer. Canada's Christine Sinclair and England's Stephanie Houghton were also among the superstars to model for this game. They created moves and filmed shots to be pictured in the game. Senior Daniela Quiroga was quite excited when she heard the news. "I thought it was really cool! It's about

time female players were represented and allowed to kick butt (literally)," Quiroga said. When the game releases, Quiroga will be playing as the United States Women's National soccer team. Senior Lorenzo Aluning will be playing with a completely different team: Germany's
National Team. "I think it's cool that EA is exploring this. Bringing both genders into a game that is loved by many. I can't wait!" Aluning said. "I may try the women's teams for a bit, but I love Dortmund and I am unstoppable with them." In seven days, EA will be presenting gameplay news at E3, which is an annual trade fair for the video game industry. It is used by many video game publishers and accessory manufacturers to reveal and advertise their upcoming games and game-related merchandise. They will definitely show the women's national teams in action. At last year's E3, FIFA conducted a stage demo for FIFA 15, and are likely to do the same this year, presumably with the women's teams as well. The game will be released this year on September 26. According to a representative from EA Sports, the game will be available for PC, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4 and PS3. There isn't a 3DS or PS Vita version. Having women's teams will change the game drastically and increase their demographics. EA is making FIFA 16 more entertaining for both genders.
