‘Sinners' is now available to stream at home — Here's how to watch
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. After a dominant box office run and 45 days exclusively in theaters, Ryan Coogler's genre-bending vampiric epic 'Sinners' is now available to stream at home. Released on Good Friday, 'Sinners' stars Michael B. Jordan and… Michael B. Jordan. The actor plays a dual role as the SmokeStack twins, criminals who return to their Clarksdale, Mississippi hometown after years working for crime families in Chicago. Smoke and Stack come home intending to start over by opening a juke joint for the local Black community, only to find that a great evil lurking just outside threatens to ruin everything. Advertisement 'Sinners' features supporting performances from Miles Caton (in his first-ever film role), Hailee Steinfeld, Wunmi Mosaku, Delroy Lindo, and Jack O'Connell. 'Sinners' streaming date: 'Sinners' is streaming on-demand on platforms like Prime Video now! 'Sinners' was released on digital June 3. How to watch 'Sinners' on Prime Video: 'Sinners' is available for digital purchase on Prime Video. The film costs $24.99 to buy or $19.99 to rent — still significantly less than it may cost for a family to go out to the movies to watch it. Advertisement While you won't have to be a paid Amazon Prime member to buy or rent 'Sinners,' you will need at least a free Amazon account; that way, you can return to watch 'Sinners' whenever you want to. Digital purchases will live in your account indefinitely to be watched as many times as you'd like, while you'll have 30 days to start a rental and 48 hours to finish it once you've pressed play. Does 'Sinners' have IMAX aspect ratios on digital? Yes! One of the biggest talking points ahead of the 'Sinners' theatrical release was the formatting and aspect ratios, and luckily, viewers at home will get a taste of the IMAX formatting. Shot on film, 'Sinners' is one of the first films to combine two proprietary film formats into one: scenes shot on Ultra Panavision 70 and IMAX 15-perf film were both used in the final IMAX cut of the movie. The aspect ratio expands from Ultra Panavision 70 2.76:1 to IMAX 1.90:1 or 1.43:1 during select scenes, creating a more immersive environment in key moments. Advertisement The digital version shifts between 2.76:1 and 1.43:1 for the immersive IMAX scenes. If this all sounds confusing, it's because it kind of is. Luckily, Coogler filmed an explainer for Kodak with all of the film and formatting available for 'Sinners'. Just know this: if you buy the movie on digital (or preorder the 4K Blu-ray), you'll be seeing it, at least partly, as the creators intended. 'Sinners' cast guide: In addition to Jordan starring in dual roles as identical twin brothers Elijah 'Smoke' Moore and Elias 'Stack' Moore, here's who you'll see in 'Sinners.' Hailee Steinfeld as Mary Miles Caton as Sammie 'Preacher Boy' Moore Jack O'Connell as Remmick Wunmi Mosaku as Annie Jayme Lawson as Pearline Omar Miller as Cornbread Delroy Lindo as Delta Slim Peter Dreimanis as Bert Lola Kirke as Joan Li Jun Li as Grace Chow Yao as Bo Chow Saul Williams as Jedidiah Moore 'Sinners' physical release date: While you can stream 'Sinners' at home now, some may prefer a physical alternative to owning movies digitally, where there's always the chance that rights may be revoked and you'll lose that digital access. Physical discs are tangible proof that, as long as you have a player to play it, you'll be able to watch the movie you own. Advertisement The 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD copies of 'Sinners' will be released on July 8, but you can preorder now on Amazon to receive your copy on release day.

This Cool Kodak Gadget Can Print Instant Photos From Your iPhone, and It's Now 40% Off on Amazon
Iit's so easy to take thousands of photos with our iPhones and shove them away in our camera rolls without ever printing them. Yes, it is nice having those memories with us at all times but nothing like having a physical picture in hand! The issue is most of us simply don't have the motivation to go through the process of transferring, editing and then printing our favorite shots. That's why the Kodak Dock ERA Plus 4PASS instant photo printer is a real game changer—especially with a great price currently on Amazon. As of present, the Kodak printer is on sale for $129 which is almost 40% off its initial advertised price of $199 (including a $20 coupon).

Whether you are at home or en route, this printer was built for you to use as you have deemed fit. You will not have to figure out whether to connect using a USB cable, or find a central station because it uses Bluetooth technology. Simply connect either your iPhone, iPad, or your Android phone, and print super easily! The dock also works as a charging area to keep your phone connected and powered while you print. The one area in which this Kodak Dock ERA Plus printer excels is the photo quality: Its technology will print spotless photos in layers in colors using a laminate process, allowing the prints to be fingerprint proof and water resistant.

On the trip of a lifetime, I left my camera behind. I don't regret it
It's when I'm packing for this trip that I realise I have one small-plane flight with severe luggage restrictions. At the last minute, I decide to leave the new camera behind. As I'm driven to the airport, however, I feel like I've left my passport at home, that's how important this piece of equipment feels to my identity as a traveller. And that's when I catch a glimpse of my past self being one of those photo bro types. And when the very same charter flight that caused me to leave my camera behind swoops down across Kruger National Park, affording impressive panoramas of the 2-million-hectare vastness, it is just begging to be captured with a wide-angle lens. The plane lands at Ngala's private airstrip, where one of the special green LandCruisers awaits with its three-tiered open-air seating for our party of five, our tracker Ernie and guide Marcus standing by it smiling welcomely. It's a Kodak moment. And it won't be long before I realise the camp, edging the wide, sandy, bed of the Timbavati River, is built right on an elephant crossing which the (mostly) gentle giants often use to access the lush greenery directly in front of Ngala's spa, bar and dining areas. I'm full of high-res regret. Fortunately, at camp, there's plenty to distract me. The marvellously situated 25-year-old property greatly pleases this design devotee. It has just emerged from a six-month closure during which it was fully renovated to reflect modern tastes as well as its environment. A spa was added, and the tented suites were given large verandahs. Considered the benchmark for ethical luxury safari, &Beyond's credentials are many. It is also at the higher end of experiences. With only one other property, the family-friendly Ngala Safari Lodge on its nearly 15,000-hectare unfenced reserve, the couple-focused Ngala Tented Camp offers exclusivity and a price to go with it. The tariff, however, not only covers these exquisite digs, but three sublime meals a day, with three courses at lunch and dinner and matched wines during the latter. There are drinks available all day, including a help-yourself bar by the pool, a cocktail bar featuring full bottles of premium spirits alongside a beans-grinding Jura coffee machine and snacks. A scrumptious afternoon tea is served and the staff organise special treat meals, such as breakfast and dinner, to be served in the bush or poolside. Then there's the opportunity to visit communities to learn about the good works &Beyond affiliate, Wild Impact is doing in inventive and inspiring ways. But of course, the main game is those safari drives. And therein lies the true value for money. Ngala was the first private game reserve to be incorporated into the Kruger National Park and has exclusive traversing rights over wilderness owned by the World Wildlife Foundation and leased to &Beyond. At the tented camp, there are only nine suites. And it's this that really facilitates my photo bro rehab. Africa is far from immune to overtourism and crowding has become a serious issue in popular safari destinations with large numbers of vehicles jostling for the best positions to view wildlife that may become skittish because of this human activity, not to mention endangering said animals. It is anxiety inducing for humans as well. The frantic atmosphere of competition and limited opportunity contributes to the compulsion to mindlessly snap away, for fear the moment ends without having something to show for it. At Ngala, we watch the animals live their lives without greatly interrupting them, mostly with one, perhaps two safari vehicles present. In eight drives (two a day) of around four hours each, we only have one instance of three vehicles in situ, and because they are all on the same team, the interaction is respectful and careful. And because of this minimal interruption, the interface with the wildlife is extended. That, my friends, is a real luxury. There are many highlights across our stay. They begin with our first drive, when a male lion saunters around a corner directly in front of us and stops at a small body of water in the river bed to drink. We are so close, we hear him lapping. A leopard appears on the same patch of road, letting out a low growl as it passes our stopped vehicle, so near, I see her whiskers twitch. Amid a group of nine lions, part of a bigger group known as the Birmingham Pride, we watch a white lion cub, one of only four of this hue known in the wild. I relish hearing the soft shuffle of elephant feet in sandy soil, the rustle of rhino in bushes, the chomp-chomp of giraffe feeding, lions calling and oh, the birds. So many stunning feathered friends. We even love watching the grisly spectacle of vultures finishing off a buffalo carcass. I giggle like a kid to hear an elephant fart. Ngala is famous for lions – the name actually means 'lion' in the local Shangaan language. On one of our last drives we witness a lioness attacking a zebra. We hear the thud as she lands on its back, and a crack as the zebra kicks her and escapes. Loading We sit and watch a dam for an hour as hippos emerge, measuring whether the heat of the day has dissipated enough to warrant them fully getting out of the water. There, the sky turns a deep velvet blue splashed with tutti-frutti – oranges, yellows and pinks. Ernie and Marcus set up the sundowners. The stars emerge and spangle. It's one of the most peaceful interludes I can recall, and mostly, I have simply immersed myself in it. I say mostly – I have my iPhone with me, and snap plenty of memories. That's a different kind of photography, at least, for me: more about reminders, less about possession and obsession. Will I always leave my camera behind? No. I enjoy photography, and truthfully, I would have loved to have seen what my new equipment could do with all that beauty and magnificence at Ngala. But I know I'll be different the next time I go visiting a wildlife and wilderness environment. I will probably still chase that dopamine fix of Instagram posts, but I hope, as with this trip, I'll do it considerably less. And I'll be mindful of tempering the ego- and anxiety-driven desire to get the best shot of an animal, enjoying instead the feelings of humility and awe that come from simply watching such precious creatures go about their business.

Broderbund's Ghost Still Haunts Me: A Warning About Today's AI Revolution: By Erica Andersen
Don't destroy your career by ignoring AI "AI is the future, but we don't do that yet!" How many times have you heard that? How many times have you said it? Here's the uncomfortable truth: AI isn't just the future—it's already here. And if your company isn't adopting it, your competitors (especially in China) are. The Fear You Should Really Have Do you worry AI might replace your job? I call it Assistive Intelligence—because the best use of AI isn't to replace people, but to enhance them. AI should work with you, making you faster, smarter, and more efficient. But here's the real fear: AI isn't coming for your job—it's coming for your company. And if your company fails to adapt, you will be out of a job—not because AI took it, but because your business collapsed. A Cautionary Tale: Broderbund and the Cost of Ignoring Change In 1997, I was a senior executive at Broderbund, the largest consumer software company in the world. We made legendary products like Myst, PrintShop, and Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? Yet, just a few years later, it was all gone. Why? The Internet. We owned franchises that could have thrived online: PrintShop could have been an early website builder. Family Tree Maker could have been the first But we hesitated. We missed the shift. And by the time we realized it, it was too late. Broderbund wasn't alone. History is littered with giants who ignored technological shifts: Kodak invented the digital camera but clung to film—bankrupt by 2012. invented the digital camera but clung to film—bankrupt by 2012. Nokia dominated mobile phones but dismissed smartphones—crushed by Apple and Android. dominated mobile phones but dismissed smartphones—crushed by Apple and Android.

Companies that ignore it will: Lose to competitors (especially those in China aggressively investing in AI). (especially those in China aggressively investing in AI).

Remember, you don't have to do this alone, there are AI experts you can bring in to assist. All it takes is one call. One conversation. One decision to act.
