Asus’ special edition Rog Maximus Z790 Hero EVA-02 motherboard looks cool as heck, but if you look closely enough, you’ll notice something isn’t quite right. YouTuber JayzTwoCents found that Evangelion is spelled “Evangenlion” with an extra “n” on its I/O heatsink. You can even see the typo in the product images posted to Asus’ website.
After word got out that Warner Bros. Discovery canned the nearly finished live-action / CGI hybrid, Puck reports the studio will allow Coyote vs. Acme’s filmmakers to shop it elsewhere. Warner Bros. execs made the reversal after a “heated back-and-forth between the studio and reps for the director and stars,” according to Puck.

Well, it’s apparently because the clips kept getting leaked, Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai says in a video posted to his YouTube channel. The cutscenes, which Sakurai stopped including after SSB Brawl for the Wii, appear when you complete adventure mode.
“We put a lot of money and effort into making them, but before the game even came out, people were posting them online,” Sakurai said. “This meant they really weren’t much of a reward, so I decided to stop making movies that cut in during gameplay.”
The entertainment giant is considering bundling some channels — including the History Channel and Lifetime — with A&E, sources tell the WSJ. Disney owns A&E as part of a joint venture with Hearst.
While it seemed like Disney CEO Bob Iger was looking to sell some of the company’s linear assets, Iger hinted that the company might just try to cut costs instead in a recent interview with CNBC:
