The Thirteenth Doctor has arrived! BBC America’s Doctor Who panel at San Diego Comic-Con today finally let new series star Jodie Whittaker (Broadchurch) take center stage. It’s been over a year since Peter Capaldi’s final season aired, and now the focus has shifted to Whittaker, who plays the first female incarnation of the Doctor.
IGN’s own Terri Schwartz moderated the panel, which featured Whittaker and two of her companions, Tosin Cole and Mandip Gill, who play Ryan and Yasmin, respectively. New showrunner Chris Chibnall (Broadchurch) and executive producer Matt Strevens (An Adventure in Space and Time) were also on hand to preview the new season of the beloved sci-fi show.

20th Century Fox kicked off San Diego Comic-Con 2018 on Thursday with an exclusive sneak peek at The Predator, showcasing new footage from the upcoming sequel-reboot that showcased the movie’s R-rated gore and humor.
Some SPOILERS follow for The Predator, although if you’ve seen the poster then this really shouldn’t come as a surprise to you.
In The Predator, suburbia becomes the latest battleground in the war between humans and the titular alien hunters. But this time around, the Predators have been upgraded — via DNA from other species — into even stronger, smarter, and more lethal hunters. “The Ultimate Predator” made his debut in the most recent trailer and it showed its might by quickly thrashing another, but smaller Predator.

SOS Online is a cloud backup service that differentiates itself from its competitors by holding onto old and deleted versions of your files for all of eternity. Most companies retain these files for 30 days, or 90 days in some instances (enterprise, usually), so going from 90 days to a lifetime is quite a jump, but that convenience comes at a hefty price.
Naturally, cloud backup options vary wildly in price and functionality, but they’re increasingly necessary for peace of mind and data security. I thoroughly evaluated SOS Online Backup along with several other leading packages based on three main criteria: pricing, features, and performance.
The huge, 30 ton mortar-sealed black granite sarcophagus unearthed at a construction site in Alexandria, Egypt has finally been opened, two weeks after its discovery.
Public reaction to the initial discovery of the sarcophagus ranged from serious speculation that the tomb may contain the corpse of Alexander the Great to joking threats of ancient curses should it ever be opened.
What Egyptian archaeologists actually found was not so dramatic, but still fascinating and a little disgusting: three decomposed mummies marinating in a soup of dark sewage water that had leaked in through a crack on the side of the casket.
During the Q&A section of The Predator panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2018, Iron Man 3 director Shane Black threw some shade at Infinity War, citing interactions between Thanos and Spider-Man.
“One moment there’s a train coming at him he can turn it into a flock of birds,” said Black. “The next minute Spider-Man is coming at him and he’s like, ‘Oh, my eyes! It’s got webbing!’ I loved the movie, it’s just, the kid had to do something”
Black said he was a fan of Infinity War, but when answering one of the many questions about whether the Predator would win in a fight against a number of characters, the Thanos/Spider-Man disparity came up. IGN was in attendance at the panel.

Note: With the eleventh season (or series, depending on what you like to call it) of Doctor Who on its way, and with a new female Doctor making her debut at San Diego Comic-Con this week, we figured this was a great time to look back at this Guide to All the Doctors.
Doctor Who has never been more popular. While Peter Capaldi finished his run as the traveling Time Lord with last year’s Season 10 and his final Christmas Special, that very same special also gave us our first look at the new Doctor: Jodie Whittaker, who will be the first female Doctor (the Thirteenth Doctor overall)! So what better time to take a look back at all the Doctors from the show’s 50-plus year history? We’re going to tell you about each incarnation in chronological order, explaining why every Doctor is awesome and worthy of your attention! (For even more on the show, check out our Intro to Doctor Who right here.)
