ZeniMax Names New Defendants in Lawsuit with Oculus
ZeniMax's lawsuit against Oculus, originally filed in 2014, has recently been updated to now name current Oculus chief technology officer John Carmack and the company's CEO Brendan Iribe as defendants in the case.
In documents obtained by IGN, the amended filing, in addition to naming them as defendants, more substantially cites the roles Carmack and Iribe, and Facebook, play in ZeniMax's allegations.
Among the new details not included in the original suit, the latest filing alleges that in 2013 Carmack, who left the ZeniMax-owned id Software, "secretly and illegally copied thousands of documents containing ZeniMax's intellectual property from his computer at ZeniMax to a USB storage device which he wrongfully took with him to Oculus. After he had joined Oculus, Carmack returned to ZeniMax's premises and took without permission a customized tool that Carmack and other ZeniMax personnel had developed for work on virtual reality."

Cap America Directors on How Civil War Sets up Infinity War
The Marvel machine is moving full steam ahead, and Joe and Anthony Russo are two of the most important cogs in it.
The directing duo are coming off Captain America: Civil War, which comes to home video in September, and just moved to Georgia to start working on Marvel's Avengers: Infinity War. That film, and its as-yes-untitled sequel, mark a culmination for 10 years and -- by the time of Infinity War's 2018 release -- 18 films that lay the groundwork for the biggest threat Earth's mightiest heroes have ever faced.
Captain America: Civil War brought together the most Marvel heroes yet in any of the studio's releases, as Steve Rogers and Tony Stark each assembled two separate groups of superheroes to fight one another over the future of the Avengers. Juggling the 12 Avengers featured in the film was a good exercise to prepare the Russos for the next two Avengers films, which -- in theory -- will bring together every superhero established in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. (Marvel has stayed mum on whether that includes TV heroes like the agents of SHIELD, the Defenders and the forthcoming Runaways.)
