Movie fans around the world have finally been treated to the first trailer for Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens.
An 88-second teaser was unveiled today (November 28), ahead of the December 18, 2015 release for the long-awaited sequel to Return of the Jedi.
In the hours building up to the trailer's release, fans were giddy with excitement and getting impatient. While some were celebrating Thanksgiving and Black Friday, for others, there was only one thing to be planning their day around.
Sadly, things didn't go quite to plan when the internet crashed more than when Kim Kardashian presented her bottom, while others panicked over Quicktime issues.
Thankfully, as the trailer finally started working for everyone, the reaction was generally a positive one. Below is how the majority of us dealt with Star Wars Trailer Day.

We know that electronic actors are on the horizon, but what about electronic makeup? Technical producer and director Nobumichi Asai has projection mapped on buildings, cars and other physical objects, but in this concept video he maps in real time onto the human face. Writes Chris Davies at Slashgear: It’s the incredible handiwork of a team led by Nobumichi Asai, which brings together digital designers, CGI experts, and make-up artists. Combined, they create what seems to be the electronic equivalent of makeup. Technical details are scant at this stage, unfortunately. Judging by the video, however, there’s an initial scanning stage […]...

The Wall Street Journal is out with a report this Wednesday morning with a headline that gets straight to the point: "Apple Tests Designs for TV."
Sources told the Journal that Apple is "working with component suppliers in Asia to test several TV-set designs," but that Apple's move to release a television is "still in the early stage of testing."
You can read the full article here.
What's the significance of the report? Well, you can simply add it to the pile of evidence that Apple is at least considering producing a TV set of its own. Since Steve Jobs admitted to biographer Walter Isaacson that he was interested in creating a television set, with "the simplest user interface you could imagine" and integration with iCloud, speculation has been rampant that Apple must be cobbling something together in its laboratories.
However, there has has been scant evidence so far. Various...

A right-wing politician with a conviction for inciting racial hatred will be invited to all future Buckingham Palace garden parties. British National Party (BNP) leader Nick Griffin - who withdrew from next month's soiree because he didn't want to "embarrass" Queen Elizabeth by attending - is likely to receive personal invitations to subsequent royal parties after he was elected to the European Parliament last week. Liberal Democrat MP Chris Davies claims Griffin's new status will allow him to "frequently rub shoulders with the queen". He told Britain's Daily Mail newspaper: "Members of the European Parliament routinely get garden party invitations. I've had quite a few. So unless they change the qualifications it will be the same for the BNP. "He'll...
