Stranger Things Season 3 premiered on the 4th of July and a lot of people watched. The streaming network announced on Twitter that the show is “breaking records.”

According to Netflix, 40.7 million “household accounts” worldwide watched Stranger Things Season 3 after its first four days. That’s higher than any other movie or TV show on Netflix after its first four days. According to Netflix, 18.2 million people finished the entire season in its first four days.

A “view” according to Netflix is when an account watches 70 percent of an episode of a show or 70 percent of a movie.

Stranger Things Season 3 is pacing well ahead of some of the other most popular Netflix shows. 45 million homes worldwide watched Umbrella Academy during its first month, while Sex Education and You were pacing toward 40 million household views over their first months, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

With Stranger Things Season 3 reaching 40.7 million homes in four days, it’s clear to see how hugely popular Stranger Things in comparison to Netflix’s other big shows.

The next big update for Xbox One is out now, and it includes some changes to Xbox Game Pass and improved Alexa support for voice commands. Starting with the new Xbox Game Pass features, a new “Play Later” tab has been introduced. As its name suggests, this is a hub where you can add games as a reminder to yourself to play later.

The other big part of the July Xbox One update is improved functionality for Alexa voice commands. Specifically, a variety of new voice commands have been added that are specific to Xbox Game Pass. For example, you can now ask Alexa things like, “What’s new on Game Pass this month?” or “What’s popular on Game Pass?” or “What’s leaving Game Pass,” among many other things.

You can also now use Alexa for social networking; you can ask, “Alexa, what are my friends playing?” or, “Alexa, is [friend’s name] online right now?” among many other things. Also, you can now pair your Xbox controller using Alexa by saying, “Alexa, ask Xbox to pair my controller.”

You can see a full rundown of all the new Alexa voice commands here. A complete list of Alexa voice commands for Xbox are available here.

In addition, Alexa now supports more countries, including Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, and Spain.

In other news, the next Xbox–Project Scarlett–was announced at E3 2019. The next-generation system, which plays Xbox One games, too–is scheduled for release in Holiday 2020. Pricing hasn’t been announced yet; it might depend on Trump’s tariffs.

The upcoming Joker movie is based on one of the most recognizable comic book characters, but the film itself doesn’t borrow much at all from the source material, it seems. Director Todd Phillips said in an interview with Empire that the movie doesn’t follow “anything” from the comic books. People are probably going to be upset about this, he predicted.

“We didn’t follow anything from the comic books, which people are gonna be mad about,” Phillips, who also wrote the script, said in the interview. “We just wrote our own version of where a guy like Joker might come from. That’s what was interesting to me. We’re not even doing Joker, but the story of becoming Joker. It’s about this man.”

Pretty much every movie based on comic book characters varies in part from the source material, but it’s interesting to hear Phillips say Joker will stray even further and that he anticipates some amount of blowback. The movie is an origin story of sorts, but beyond that, the plot details are under wraps.

Three-time Oscar nomineee Joaquin Phoenix plays Arthur Fleck / The Joker in the upcoming film. Empire magazine also has an exclusive new image of Phoenix putting on his Joker makeup that you can see in the embed above. The movie also stars Robert De Niro, Zazie Beetz, and Frances Conroy.

Joker opens in theatres on October 4. It’s something of a change for Phillips, who previously made the Hangover and Old School comedies. He also wrote for Borat, which earned him his Oscar nomination.

One of Fortnite‘s most recent challenges involves destroying grills scattered around the map. This is simple enough in theory–just destroy any grills you come across–but locating them can be a hurdle you’ll need to overcome. Luckily, we’ve put together the video guide above with locations all around the map for where you’ll find these grills. You need to destroy seven total, but these don’t have to be done in a single match, and they don’t have to be different ones. What that means is that, provided you’re patient, you can return to the same grill across seven different matches and destroy it each time to complete this challenge.

This is the final new challenge to be introduced as part of the 14 Days of Summer event, although you’ll have a full week after the release of this challenge to complete it (and any others you might not have done). Finishing this challenge will net you a banner and a step of progress toward unlocking the Smoothie back bling.
