Rehash

This new Instagram feature is changing everything. In a press release released this afternoon, Instagram announced that it was going to start moving away from a chronological timeline. Instead, the photo sharing social network that users love for it's simplicity will, in the next few months, move toward an algorithm-based approach that will reportedly share the posts that mathematically seem the most important to the top of your news feed sort of like Facebook, which nobody really likes. Absolutely no one on Instagram was asking for this change. So why did they make this change? Well, Instagram thinks otherwise... Instagram has grown, it’s become harder to keep up with all the photos and videos people share. This means you often don’t see the posts you might care about the most. To improve your experience, your feed will soon be ordered to show the moments we believe you will care about the most. The order of photos and videos in your feed will be based on the likelihood you’ll be interested in the content, your relationship with the person posting and the timeliness of the post. As we begin, we’re focusing on optimizing the order — all the posts will still be there, just in a different order. If your favorite musician shares a video from last night’s concert, it will be waiting for you when you wake up, no matter how many accounts you follow or what time zone you live in. And when your best friend posts a photo of her new puppy, you won’t miss it. The new feature will start rolling out in the next few months because all things sacred eventually get updated, rebooted, rehashed, re-released and remade. What do you think?

Zoolander 2 movie is on track to flop in the box office and movie reviews says the movie sucks. Zoolander 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the one of the biggest comedies in the past two decades, was supposed to bring fans together and laugh at the fashion industry. However, many people who have watched the movie hate it. To add insult to injury, Zoolander 2 is on track to flop in the box office. According to reports, the Zoolander 2 is "a film full of rehashed, reheated jokes that don't go anywhere and that's before they all take umbrage with the labyrinth plot. " Zoolander 2 currently has a 5.8/10 rating on IMDB, a 38 score on Metacritic and a 25% on Rotten Tomatoes. Zoolander No. 2 is embarrassing, lazy, and aggressively unfunny Entertainment Weekly had this to say about the latest Zoolander movie: Zoolander No. 2 is embarrassing, lazy, and aggressively unfunny. The only good news is that at the pace the franchise is moving, we won't get Zoolander 3 until 2030. Jen Yamato from The Daily Beast said: "Zoolander 2 death-marches its way through a tiresome succession of espionage movie clichés and cameos." Not surprised that #Zoolander2 sucks, in the trailers you see they try to hard to be funny. This is an unnecessary sequel. #Flop — Serge-EL (@SergioEES) February 10, 2016 Zoolander2 looks like shit. Also Justin Bieber sucks. — Running Wild (@RunningWildWolf) November 18, 2015 But, it gets worse. The Hollywood Reporter says the new Zoolander movie is only on track to make $20 million in the box office this opening weekend.

You will now be able to start online shopping via Facebook which will boost the number of modeling jobs and careers. Social media is slowly being condensed, reformed, rehashed, and rebranded to nearly every single part of your day. According to a new report, Facebook is now going to allow stores to sell their products on the social media platform. Facebook will test a new "shopping" section among a small fraction of users. Based on brands a user has "liked," the shopping bookmark will show a list of products that a user can browse through, all without leaving Facebook. Retailers using the shopping feature will have the option of allowing customers to purchase directly within Facebook or to transfer customers to their individual site. An additional feature that has been live since last month is Canvas advertising, which allows users to click an ad and view product information in a new window while still browsing Facebook, meaning you will never lose your place while you are scrolling through your news feed if you decide to buy the product. Michael Kors, Mr Porter and Target are just only a few brands that have tested out this new advertising feature on Facebook. The purpose of Canvas ads is that they load faster than retailers' sites, which keeps a customer engaged and every second cut from loading issues increases the chances a user will buy a product.   The development of the growing shopping options is a response to the growing number of users who are using Facebook on their mobile device instead of visiting the website. According to TechCrunch, mobile commerce is expected to grow at a double digit annual rate in the next five years, and due to how easy it is to capitalize on this growing trend, Facebook has decided to jump on the bandwagon which helps companies invest in Facebook ads instead of developing their own apps. If this new trend continues, expect more and more fashion brands to be looking for models to feature on their Facebook advertising and shopping campaigns. Therefore, increasing the number of jobs in the modeling industry.

Should Marvel buy the rights of 'Fantastic Four' back from 20th Century Fox? 'Fantastic Four' bombed, can Marvel save the day? After the success of 'X-Men: First Class' and Days of Future Past, 20th Century Fox's version of the superhero wold was competing against Marvel and DC's comic book universes. Tim Story's 'Fantastic Four' movies performed pretty well earning 20th Century Fox well over $500 million in the global box office, more than doubling their investment. While, 'Fantastic Four' wasn't going to compete with 'Avengers' or 'Batman v. Superman', 20th Century Fox had created a product that they could rebrand, repackage, and ultimately reboot for an even larger payoff. Problems between 'Fantastic Four' director, Josh Trank, and 20th Century Fox resulted in a box office bomb. According to reports, 'Fantastic Four' reboot is the worst super hero movie in the last decade. However, international moviegoers are still expected to turn this box-office let down into at least a slightly profitable feature film. But, it begs the question, should Marvel finally buy back the rights to the 'Fantastic Four'? Who owns the 'Fantastic Four' movie rights? All of the DC Comics characters are all owned by Warner Bros. and can appear in any DC comic book universe movie. Meanwhile, Marvel movie rights are spread across several movie studios. In the early 80s, Marvel was facing bankruptcy and sold the film rights to many of their most popular characters, way before superhero movies were premiering at the box office and selling millions of tickets. The first character to be sold was Spider-Man, then Blade, and finally X-Men. With the help of Bryan Singer, X-Men became a hit superhero franchise. In addition, Columbia Pictures' Spider-Man led the way for the generation of superhero movies. Including, Tim Story's 2005's 'Fantastic Four' movie starring Jessica Alba, Chris Evans and Ioan Gruffudd. Many of Marvel's initial agreements included a sunset clause which stops rights holders from holding a particular character for too long. Specifically, if the studio chooses not to release another franchise movie within a specific time window, the character rights revert back to Marvel. Over time, certain movie studios have chosen to let their particular rights expire. For instance, Punisher can now appear in the Daredevil Netflix series. That is how Marvel Studios was able to regain rights to most of their superhero characters. After 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' Sony teamed up with Marvel to feature 'Spider-Man' a character that once belonged to his own separate cinematic universe and will now be featured in several other Marvel movies including 'Captain America 3'. But, that sunset clause now allows for 20th Century Fox the rights to 'Fantastic Four' until 2024, another 9 years. Fans particularly hated the latest revision of the 'Fantastic Four' reboot but, should Marvel reacquire the rights to the superhero franchise? The Future of Marvel Marvel Studios, with the help of Disney, is a major force in Hollywood. The movie studios has been able to release a list of movies planned from now until 2020. But, the highly profitable studio is still at the mercy of fans. For instance, if people get sick of the same superhero movie, then Marvel runs the risk of having several box office disasters. Too much of a good thing is always bad. With so many superhero characters in the Marvel Universe, Disney has the unique opportunity to pick and choose which actors and characters they would like to have in their production. Therefore, it may not even be in the best interest of Marvel to reacquire the film franchise 'Fantastic Four'. There is no point in spending money to make another 'Fantastic Four' movie, if nobody cares about the 'Fantastic Four'. In addition, by not picking up 'Fantastic Four', it allows for Disney to start and invest in unique and new character movies. For example, Marvel is planning on creating a Doctor Strange, Black Panther, Captain Marvel, Inhumans, Jessica Jones and Luke Cage movie; characters that have not been tainted by reboots, rehashings, and bad premieres i.e 'Fantastic Four'. The Future of 20th Century Fox 20th Century Fox plans on building a shared universe around their most profitable superheroes, 'X-Men'. The new X-Men spinoffs will include solo stories such as 'Deadpool' and 'X-Force'. So, could we expect a 'Fantastic Four' and X-Men cross over movie? Probably not. After the horrible release of 'Fantastic Four', studios are not going to damage their most profitable characters at the expense of creating another movie. The Future of 'Fantastic Four' As I pointed out earlier, 20th Century Fox will have the rights to 'Fantastic Four' until 2024. Therefore, Fox has nearly 10 years to figure out what they want to do with the franchise. Currently, 'Fantastic Four' comic book sales are at all time low, and younger generation of fans are not interested in characters that can set themselves on fire or stretch their body parts. This may allow Marvel the great opportunity to buy the 'Fantastic Four' franchise back and add the superhero foursome to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In fact, with the recent Spider-Man deal between Marvel and Sony, I would not be surprised of Fox is interested in bringing back their 'Fantastic Four' franchise by any means necessary. In an industry that is dominated by superhero universes and competing box office sales, 'Fantastic Four' lost their first fight against modern day movie theater goers and audiences. If Fox is interested in rebooting the franchise, then the studio is going to have to look outside of the box to find ideas, strategies, and a game plan. If not, Marvel will reacquire the franchise series leaving 20th Century with nothing but a bad reputation.
