    Disney+ Black Friday: Get 6-Months Disney+ for Free With This Black Friday Deal

    As far as Black Friday deals on Disney+ go, this is the best one around. If you sign up for Amazon Music Unlimited through the promotion link below, Amazon will just give you 6-months Disney+ for free as a thanks. Amazon music is the same cost as a subscription to Disney+ if you have Prime, so this is a no-brainer. From a strictly numbers perspective, it's like getting Amazon Music Unlimited for free with your Disney+ subscription… or getting Disney+ for free with an Amazon Music Unlimited subscription.

    Disney+ Black Friday Deal

    How to Get the Disney+ 6-Month Black Friday Deal

    In order to get your free 6-months of Disney+, you need to sign up for an Amazon Music Unlimited account, which is $7.99 for Prime Members. Amazon Music Unlimited is the beefier version of Amazon Music, which is already included with Prime. At $7.99, it's cheaper than its rivals Apple Music and Spotify Premium, although that price is only good for Prime members. Non-Prime members can get the Disney+ Black Friday deal for $9.99, which gets you the Amazon Music Unlimited subscription and your 6-months free Disney+.

    If you're a Prime Student member, this is absolutely the best possible Black Friday Disney+ deal, because Prime Student members can get Amazon Music Unlimited for $0.99. On top of that, Prime Student is free for the first 6 months. Basically, if you have a .edu email address, you're paying $1 a month for 6 months of both Amazon Music Unlimited and Disney+.

    Note that if you cancel your Amazon Music Unlimited subscription before the 6-months is up, you also forfeit your free Disney+ subscription. Once the 6-months is over, you can either cancel Disney+ or you can just let it roll. It's $7.99 a month, which isn't a bad price to pay to watch The Simpsons whenever you feel like it. Well, at least that's how I justify my subscription.

    The Book of Boba Fett premieres on December 29, so you'll be able to watch that play out during your active free subscription period, which I think is pretty excellent. Since it's the sales season, I also recommend you consider checking out some Black Friday 65" 4K TV deals. That's the best size.

    The Best Apple TV Black Friday Deals

    The biggest Black Friday deals have been springing up all over the place. Many of them have been on some of the biggest electronics shoppers have jumped on for the impending holiday season, like an Apple TV 4K or Apple TV HD. If you're looking to pocket some extra change, you can check out Apple TV models as well as accessories we've rounded up here. Read on to check them out.

    Black Friday Apple TV Deals

    Both models of the video streaming device are currently on sale for $10 off at Amazon. That might not be a mind-blowing deal, but at least it's something. Apple and Best Buy are still offering the devices at their full MSRPs. If the discounts change, or any other retailer offers a better deal, we'll update this article.

    Apple TV 4K vs. Apple TV HD

    Perhaps you’re wondering what the difference is between Apple TV 4K and Apple TV HD. The primary difference is in the resolution output the devices can handle. The 4K model has the powerful A12 chip, which lets it output high frame rate 4K HDR video. It’s also compatible with Dolby Atmos sound. This 4K model is the you’ll want if you have a 4K TV or plan to get one during the time you’ll use the Apple TV.

    Apple TV HD runs on the less powerful A8 chip and can only output video up to 1080p resolution. This is fine for people with 1080p televisions, but if you’re planning to upgrade to 4K in the coming years, it’s probably wiser to choose the 4K model. The HD model also supports Dolby Digital Plus 7.1 surround sound, while the 4K one supports the more versatile Dolby Atmos.

    Either model you choose, you’ll also get the second-generation Apple TV Siri Remote. This latest version of the remote addresses many of the complaints people had about the previous models. It’s easy to tell if you’re holding it correctly, even in the dark. It has a circular clickpad at the top that you can use to navigate forward and backward through videos. It also has a Siri button on the side, which engages the voice assistant and lets you open apps, movies, or TV shows with vocal commands.

    Software-wise, the two models are the same. They offer access to the same streaming services, including Netflix, HBO Max, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+ and, of course, Apple TV+. You can also play Apple Arcade games on Apple TV, use it for Apple Fitness+, and Apple Music.

    Andrew Garfield Thinks His Spider-Man Would Be ‘A Little Turned Off’ By MCU’s Tony Stark

    One of Tom Holland's most defining traits as the current Spider-Man is his connection to the late Tony Stark, who became something akin to a second father figure or mentor to the younger Peter Parker. Actor Andrew Garfield, who played Spider-Man/Peter Parker in the earlier Amazing Spider-Man films in 2012 and 2014, thinks his version of the character wouldn't get along so well with the iconic billionaire/superhero.

    In a new video by GQ (via SlashFilm), Garfield answered questions from fans on the internet about his past roles, including his tenure as Spider-Man. When asked how the MCU Iron Man would treat Garfield's Spider-Man, the actor was pretty firm that the pair wouldn't get along.

    "I definitely think Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man would be pretty suspect of MCU Iron Man," Garfield said. "I think he would be a little turned off by the excess, the billionaire, trillionaire status of Iron Man. I think it would rub my version of Spider-Man the wrong way. But maybe there could be some influence there. Maybe my Peter Parker could wake Tony Stark up to his own egoic drives a little bit."

    Garfield's take on Spider-Man was definitely a little darker than Tom Holland's, and maybe about as dark as Tobey Maguire's, grappling with a conspiracy involving his dead parents, the death of Gwen Stacy's police captain father, and later the death of Emma Stone's Gwen Stacy. In any case, Garfield is on the record that Maguire is his favorite Spider-Man.

    Rumors and fan theories have been swirling for weeks about Garfield potentially appearing in Spider-Man: No Way Home, which has confirmed the return of Alfred Molina's Doc Ock, the Green Goblin, and even The Amazing Spider-Man's Electro, played by Jamie Foxx, and Lizard. The latest trailer raised plenty of questions about how previous Spider-Man entries could play a role in the multiverse plot elements introduced in Spider-Man: Far From Home and Disney Plus' Loki series.

    Marvel is staying silent on whether Garfield will appear in No Way Home, and the actor himself has reiterated several times that the rumors are "hilarious" and saying that a cameo from him “is not something I’m aware of.” Whether this is the truth or just careful obfuscation by a spoiler-sensitive Marvel/Disney remains to be seen.

    Meanwhile, Garfield is plenty busy recently starring in Lin Manuel Miranda's new musical film Tick, Tick…Boom! as Jonathon Larson, creator of Broadway's Rent.

    Xbox Games With Gold for December 2021 Announced

    Microsoft has revealed its list of upcoming Games With Gold titles for December. The lineup includes The Escapists 2, Tropico 5: Penultimate Edition, Orcs Must Die! and Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet.

    The Escapists 2 is developed by Mouldy Toof Studios and published by Team17 and builds upon its predecessor as you once again enter the life of an inmate motivated to escape from behind bars. Unlike the original Escapists, the sequel allows you to team up with a number of friends in multiplayer as you attempt to plot and break out of some of the toughest prisons in the world.

    In contrast, Tropico 5 offers a very different gameplay experience in a construction and management simulator beginning in the early colonial period and spanning four different eras to move beyond the 21st century. The Penultimate Edition available through Games With Gold also comes with the Tropico 5's Hostile Takeover and The Big Cheese add-ons included.

    Orcs Must Die! and Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet were originally launched on the Xbox 360 and are available this month through Backward Compatibility. Orcs Must Die! puts the player in the shoes of a powerful mage in a bid to defend twenty-four fortresses from a mob of beastly enemies through tower defense gameplay.

    In Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet, players are tasked with exploring a bizarre world from the comfort of their flying saucer where gameplay revolves around battling outlandish creatures and solving puzzles. IGN reviewed Insanely Twister Shadow Planet upon release awarding it an 8/10 and stating that the game "leaves you wanting more."

    The Escapists 2 will be available throughout the entire month of December while Tropico 5 will be free between December 16 and January 15. Meanwhile, Orcs Must Die! and Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet will share the Christmas period. The former is set to be available between December 1 and December 15, with Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet available from December 16 to the end of the month.
