Video: Suicide Squad trailer shows why it might be one of the best films of 2016

With a great ensemble cast, a fresh story and characters that few people know about, and what appears to be non-stop action and stunt sequences (most of them shot in downtown, Toronto), Suicide Squad is gearing up to be one of the most anticipated films of 2016 and possibly one that could put DC back on the map before Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. 

The two minute trailer gives the first glimpse of our antiheroes backed by Queen's immortal Bohemian Rhapsody, while most squad members show what they can do, others are shrouded in mystery. Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn and Will Smith's Deadshot are obviously the leads in this story but Jared Leto's divisive take on The Joker looks like something to look forward to as well.  Suicide Squad comes to theatres August 2016.

Microsoft optimizes OneDrive for iPad Pro & Apple Pencil

Microsoft is helping you make the most out of your iPad Pro with the latest update of its OneDrive app on iOS. The version 6.8 of the app brings with it iPad Pro optimization. This means PDF annotations are now pressure sensitive. When you write or draw harder, the resulting image will be darker. If your touch is lighter, the writing or drawing will be lighter. The Apple Pencil and 3D Touch displays both have better optimization as well. Microsoft also quashed some of the usual bugs and added stability improvements to the app.
