For somehow the second time in my life, I recently found myself in deeply urgent need of a 4K gaming monitor. An RTX 4090 review deadline was rapidly approaching, any suitably UHD-specced loaner monitors I could use for testing had been sent back, and my backup – a nasty little 60Hz screen – wasn’t going to cut it. Unwilling to prostrate myself for another loan model and reluctant to burn such a vast hole in RPS’s expenses budget, I elected for the fastest, easiest option of just buying one myself.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever draws to a close with most everyone thinking that they have a solid understanding of the world’s balance of power following the passing of one Black Panther and the rise of a new one. But the movie’s solitary mid-credits sequence introduces a surprising new twist that could upend all that and set the stage for a very different kind of Black Panther story going forward.
This piece contains spoilers for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
Rather than picking up in a completely new location some time later, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’s mid-credits sequence opens right back up on Shuri (Letitia Wright) and Nakia (Lupita Nyong’o) on a Haitian beach. Though Wakanda Forever details how Nakia chose to become a…
A LIP reader has revealed the moment Camilla “scolded” Kate Middleton for Princess Charlotte’s behaviour at the Queen’s funeral.
The Princess of Wales was accompanied by her daughter and brother Prince George as the Royal Family said their final goodbyes to Queen Elizabeth II during a state funeral and committal service last month.
After the poignant send off, the children joined their parents at Wellington Arch to watch as the Queen’s coffin was transferred to the State Hearse ahead of being driven to Windsor.
And as the entourage lined up behind King Charles and senior royals, lip reader Jeremy Freeman spotted George as he attempted to pinch his sister.
The Princess allegedly yelped out in pain and turned around to stare at her sibling, before facing forwards to say: “Ow!”
According to the Daily Star, some royals saw light of the fun exchange to the young royals, including Meghan Markle who titled her head and smiled the pair.

But the incident appeared to annoy Camilla, who was seen frowning and point at Charlotte before turning to Kate and saying: “Take her.”
The small exchange was captured on live TV and eagle eyed viewers were quick to spot the “disagreement” between Charlotte and George.
“Looks like Prince George and Princess Charlotte have a small disagreement. Look at The Queen Consort , Camilla,” one tweeted.
“What did Charlotte say when she turned back around? Was it wow? Ow? Cow?” a second added.
According to other lip readers, it wasn’t the only cute exchange between the pair at the Arch.
At one point, Charlotte was reportedly seen mouthing something to George, with lip readers decoding it as “you need to bow”.
It seemed as though Charlotte was reminding her brother of royal protocol, and informed him that he needed to bow as the coffin was driven past.
And upon being told of his duty by his younger sister, George – who looked smart in a navy blue suit – nodded.
Insiders expect Prince George and Princess Charlotte – who are second and third in line to the throne, to also attend King Charles III’s Coronation next year, alongside their parents.
It has suggested that the two eldest will use the experience at the historic event as training for their future as senior royals.

House Targaryen may think they have ‘em tamed, but as the House of the Dragons finale amply demonstrated, a dragon’s gonna do what a dragon’s gonna do. It was a satisfying sight for Game of Thrones fans who’ve been waiting years to see a proper dragon brawl, so the people behind the HBO franchise didn’t take any…
Of the many guest appearances that graced the first season of Marvel’s She-Hulk, the ones featuring Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk were among the most consequential. Banner showed up in much of the premiere, and also the second episode briefly to take a call from Jen, where it was revealed he had been calling her while going …
We already know this to be true, but Google search trends prove it: Halloween-franchise villain Michael Myers and Jell-O shots will never die.
A recent report from the search giant revealed 2022’s top Halloween trends, which includes boringly obvious costume searches for things like witch and cowboy. But there were a couple of eye-opening standouts like a surprising amount of people wanting to know how tall Michael Myers is because… they’re worried he might come after them? Also, it seems like a lot (and we mean A LOT) of people prefer to take their Jell-O shots via syringe because apparently that’s spookier?
According to the annual “Frightgeist” report, queries for “How tall is Michael Myers” have doubled this year and those for “How to make jello shots in syringes” went up by 350 percent.
Contrary to the now-classic Disney song, it appears we do indeed need to talk about Bruno because Encanto was one of the top breakout costume searches this year. Other top breakouts indicate our love of wholesome heroes — Ted Lasso and Moon Knight — and the superhero/lawyer crossover show we didn’t know we needed in She-Hulk.
But when it comes to top costume searches overall, the classics still dominate the Halloween scene. The top ten costumes include witch, Spider-Man, dinosaur, fairy, pirate, cheerleader, and cowboy. Stranger Things also cracked the top ten ranking at number four because pink dress Eleven and sailor boy Steve will never go out of style.
If you’re thinking this list isn’t sexy enough, you’re not wrong. Playboy Bunny was all the way down at number 82. But gamers were fairly well-represented. Fortnite (#48), Minecraft (#67), Among Us (#103), and Roblox (#118) all made the list.
If you’d like, you can browse the top 853 searched costumes on Google’s Frightgeist microsite and nerd-out on all the costume search data according to categories like spookiness, classic vs. modern, and uniqueness with the “Costume Wizard” feature.
In the meantime, we’ll spare you the Google search and just tell you that Michael Myers is currently depicted as 6’9″. So maybe keep those Jell-O shot syringes at the ready if a tall silhouette darkens your door this October. Muahaha.
