In a famous 2003 interview with The New York Times, Steve Jobs laid out his — and by extension, Apple’s — design philosophy.

“Most people make the mistake of thinking design is what it looks like,” Jobs said. “People think it’s this veneer — that the designers are handed this box and told, ‘Make it look good!’ That’s not what we think design is. It’s not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.”

With a running time exceeding three hours, Avengers: Endgame didn’t really need a post-credits scene. When asked about the lack of a scene after the credits, directors Joe and Anthony Russo explained that a post-credits scene is the connective tissue that ties the movies together, but with Endgame being the end of a story, the two didn’t think it made any sense to hint at the future. This is the end, and that’s all there is to it.

At least, that was the case when the movie hit theaters late last month, but as Deadline reports today, Marvel Studios is changing course and adding a post-credits scene (of sorts) after all. If you head to the theater to see Endgame for the first (or second or third) time, you can stick around once it’s over to see the new Spider-Man: Far From Home trailer. You’ve probably already seen it, but now you can watch it on the big screen.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the release of the original Matrix film that introduced us to Neo, Morpheus and the world of green scrolling code — and there also happen to be fresh indications at the moment that fans may be able to jack back into the franchise soon.

Chad Stahelski, the director of John Wick 3 who also worked as Keanu Reeves’ stunt double during the filming of The Matrix, revealed in an interview with Yahoo Movies UK that the Wachowski siblings are apparently moving forward with a fourth movie. While he said he’s not sure if both Wachowskis are actually directing, he not only described the project in pretty concrete terms — but the Matrix star himself is likewise excited by the prospect of donning shades to play Neo again.
