Every Spider-Man Movie Spin-Off in Development
Spider-Man is one of the few Marvel heroes with a supporting cast and rogues gallery wide enough to support an entire cinematic universe. And that's exactly what Sony is trying to launch. Now that Tom Holland's Spider-Man has apparently parted ways with the Marvel Cinematic Universe (for now?), Sony’s universe of Marvel Characters is drawing from all corners of the Spider-Man franchise in order to create new movies starring characters like Venom, Morbius and Black Cat.
We know that Sony has "seven or eight years" planned for the Spidey universe both on film and TV, which raises the question... what projects are actually happening? It's a lot to keep track of, so we've put together a handy guide breaking down every Spider-Man-centric movie currently in the works at Sony and how exactly these projects are meant to fit together. Check them all out below!
What Are Amazon’s New Echo Loop and Echo Frames?
Amazon showed off a slew of new, in-house products during its Seattle event yesterday. The usual suspects were shown off, most of which were improvements or slight tweaks to existing Amazon Echo devices. It also introduced some entirely new, exciting products like the Echo Buds wireless, Alexa-enabled ear buds, and a smart oven combining the convenience of a microwave and convection oven into one device.
The two stand-out "Day 1 Edition" announcements were for new wearables, an Alexa-enabled ring called Echo Loop and a pair of Alexa-enabled glasses frames called Echo Frames. Both are invite-only, meaning only certain Prime members who apply will get the chance to try out these Day 1 Edition devices. If you really want to, you can sign up for your own Echo Loop or Echo Frames and "have the opportunity to contribute feedback that informs future product ideas and development." The real question is: do you want to?

Tinder Goes Bandersnatch With Swipe Night Interactive Series
Popular dating app Tinder is throwing its hat into the streaming arena with a live-action interactive series called Swipe Night. The four-episode dating-themed drama will consist of four episodes and is set to premiere on Tinder on Sunday, October 6, 2019.

It’s shot entirely in first-person, so the member is placed squarely in the middle of the storyline, making each of its four episodes a wild ride of self-discovery and new connections. As the story unfolds, members will face moral dilemmas and practical choices, as they decide what happens to them next. Their choices dictate more than just the story; they also impact who they match with and what they will chat about once the story ends. Critical choices will be added to members’ profiles following the experience, showing which decisions potential matches did - or did not - make."
