Make these Changes on YouTube to Quickly Find What You’re Looking For

 

You probably won’t believe it, but every minute, there are more than 500 hours of videos getting uploaded. Undoubtedly, YouTube is the only platform that has every type of content for its user. From advanced material to learning a very basic activity, you can open YouTube and search for it. Additionally, whatever is happening in the world right now, you can see it on YouTube in video format.



The user experience on YouTube is ultimate, but you can still try out some good steps to improve your experience. If you’re a regular viewer of YouTube, then you should go for YouTube Premium. The YouTube Premium won’t just offer you some Original YouTube content, but you’ll also get to see ads free videos along with YouTube Music.

You can also watch content offline, and in the background without stopping the currently playing video. You can also manage the Playback speed if you wish to finish watching a certain video quickly or slowly. Users that use YouTube on mobile can try out some useful features to make their streaming experience better. So let’s get started.

Utilize the Recommendations

While watching a video, you might have seen recommended videos on the right sidebar. Those recommended videos are some high quality and highly viewed videos that could be relevant to you. So without wasting any time on finding video, you can tap on any recommended video to see if it’s helpful for you or not.

Most of the videos that you’ll find on the recommended section will be loved by the viewers and might have a high number of thumbs up. So even if you don’t like that video or it’s not relevant to you, then you can put a dislike to it, and look for another video.

Manage Subscriptions

If you subscribe to any channel, you’ll see their videos on the top or at the front when you open the app. If the content creator you have subscribed to uploads a new video, you can receive its notification by pressing down the Bell icon near the Subscribe button. However, if you have subscribed to multiple channels and now don’t know which ones are relevant to you, you can navigate to the Subscription tab. In the following tab, you’ll see a Manage option that will allow you to see all the channels that you have subscribed to. You can choose to unsubscribe those YouTube channels that are not relevant to you anymore. YouTube sends you a notification when a subscribed channel uploads something, but if you’re getting frustrated from it, then you turn off the notifications too. To do this, you simply need to open any video of that channel and press the Bell icon once again to turn off its notification.

Create Playlists

Well, the playlists feature on YouTube is such an underrated feature. It’s true that most of the viewers don’t focus on this feature, neither have they used it often, but it can be really helpful. You can use the Playlists feature on YouTube to collect and manage different types of videos. Great thing about playlist features is that you can create Public, Unlisted and Private playlists. 

Public playlist will be open, and everyone will be able to see the content on that playlist. The Unlisted playlist can only be viewed by those people who have the link to the playlist. And the last category of playlist is Private Playlist that only its creator can see.

If you have a good taste in music, you can create a music playlist for yourself, but if you wish to do some social work, then you can set its privacy to Public. After choosing the privacy as Public, viewers will be able to see your playlist in the recommendation or by searching its name. 

Conclusion 

YouTube has a massive amount of content for viewers to watch, but sometimes users get confused about what to watch. So in this condition, the recommended section comes in to help that suggests latest, relevant and liked videos.

Spider-Man 3 Report: Willem Dafoe Is Back As Green Goblin

 

A website called “ScreenGeek” has also shared a report, which alludes to the fact that the veteran actor Willem Dafoe has been seen shooting scenes for the upcoming MCU tentpole Spider-Man 3 starring Tom Holland, Zendaya, and possibly Tobey Maguire as well.

However, as far as Tom Holland is concerned, he hasn’t got any bit of information that the two previous actors of Spider-Man, i.e., Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, will be in the film. But, there is the slightest of the possibility that the information has been kept hidden from him on purpose since he hasn’t been pretty reliable in keeping secrets.



The production of Spider-Man 3 is picking up pace, and every rumor and report is exciting for the Marvel fans. Several reports from several reliable sources have reported that a team of villains from preceding Spider-Man films and the ongoing Tom-Holland starrer franchise will make an appearance in Spider-Man 3.

However, we should remind ourselves that only two actors have been confirmed for a comeback, which includes Project Power actor Jamie Foxx in the role of Electro and Spider-Man 2 villain Alfred Molina in the role of Doctor Octopus.

Apart from those two, several rumors and whispers doing the rounds of the internet have also alluded to the fact that the villain of the first Tobey Maguire starrer Spider-Man film, Willem Dafoe, will be back as Green Goblin in the third Tom Holland starrer MCU based Spider-Man film.

The casting is in accordance with the claims made by Kevin Feige, who had revealed in one of his earlier interviews that the phase 4 plans would be based on multiverse theories.

A similar theory has also been generated by GWW, who had previously claimed that Alfred Molina would re-portray the role of Doctor Octopus in the Tom Holland starrer third Spider-Man film. They are now pretty confident that people have seen that the longtime collaborator of Abel Ferrara, Willem Dafoe, has been seen on the set of Spider-Man 3. Not only that, but they are also claiming that Willem Dafoe has been signed in to play the role of Green Goblin (Norman Osborn), an old foe of Peter Parker.

However, it must be stated that the narrative of Norman Osborn will be changed because the whole Tobey Maguire starrer Sam Raimi’s trilogy is an intellectual property of Sony. Instead of that, the upcoming film will avail itself to the alternate versions of these characters said to be existing in different universes.

It also needs to be pointed that Willem Dafoe’s character in the Tobey Maguire starrer had already died.

Considering all of that, we might be seeing a very different version of Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin in the film.

Though there is no confirmation about the signing of Willem Dafoe, we might hear about him soon, considering the budget and ambitions of Marvel Studios. Apart from Willem Dafoe, it has also been suggested that Thomas Haden Church, known for her role of Sandman in the third Spider-Man film, will also play a cameo in Spider-Man.

Jon Watts will sit in the director’s chair, and other MCU characters such as Benedict Cumberbatch and Elizabeth Olsen are expected to be a part of the project.

Elizabeth Olsen starrer WandaVision is currently showing on Disney+.

Captain America: Why The MCU Shouldn’t Bring Back Chris Evans

 

Captain America is one of the most important Avengers in the team Avengers. The character of Captain America / Steve Rogers has been played beautifully by the famous Hollywood actor, Chris Evans. Chris has already denied the spreading rumors about Steve coming back to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. According to the rumors, Marvel was involved in a negotiation with Evans regarding the comeback role of Steve Rogers in the MCU. However, Chris assured fans very quickly about this lame rumor, but many fans have started to discuss if Steve’s return could work, despite the fact that the arc of Steve has already ended up in the film Avengers: Endgame and this conclusion must remain intact. However, there are some ways in which the return of Captain America could work without hampering the legacy of Endgame. In this article, we have discussed the five things that show why the MCU should not bring back Chris Evans.



The Dance Between Steve And Peggy Was The Perfect Ending For The Character

When fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe were first introduced to the character Steve Rogers, portrayed by Chris Evans., he was a soldier and could go beyond any limit in order to win World War II. This also includes crashing a plane into the ice, which was full of WMDs. In the meantime, Steve falls in love with Peggy and goes on a date with her. After 80 years, Steve wakes up, and he could focus only on that dance he missed with Peggy Carter.

In the film Avengers: Infinity War, Steve has been seen to refocus his efforts on being a soldier throughout the film. He is a great leader and has to lead the team Avengers successfully in a lot of battles against aliens and robots. After the end of the battle against Thanos and defeating him, Captain America hangs up his shield and travels back in time in order to live a happy life with his love interest Peggy Carter. In the last scene of the film Avengers: Endgame, we see the couple dancing with each other, and this is the perfect ending of Steve’s arc.

The MCU Needs To Avoid Clinging To The Past

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been one of the most popular cinematic universes among fans for several years. The MCU always come with movies having fresh and unique storylines, such as Black Panther and Thor: Ragnarok, but after the events of Endgame, Marvel should not include the past in their upcoming movies as it could prove to be a risk. If Marvel does not avoid clinging to the retired characters such as Captain America and Iron Man, there could be a maximum chance of fatigue in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The Infinity Saga Was The Original Six’s Story, The New Saga Belongs To The New Avengers

The Marvel Cinematic Universe comprise “:the Infinity Saga” in their first three phases, which tell the story of the original Avengers coming together in order to protect the Earth from a number of aliens, robots, and various other threats, and struggling against Thanos in the climax of the film Avengers: Endgame. After the events of Endgame, Marvel has been moved to a new Phase, and it belongs to the new Avengers. Out of the six original Avengers, four of them who will be appearing in the new Phase four of the MCU, like Thor, Hawkeye, Thor, are all passing their roles to their successors, and Captain America has already done that in the film Avengers: Endgame.

Marvel Will Never Be Able To Top Cap’s “On Your Left” Moment

The most successful point of the journey of Captain America came on the battlefield in the film Avengers: Endgame. In this scene, Captain America is prepared to take on the armies of Thanos alone, and he hears a voice: “On your left.” After this, Wong and Doctor Strange open some portals in order to let in the remaining Avengers so that they could back Steve up. This is one of the most formidable and amazing moments, and in order to maintain this triumph, Marvel should not bring Steve Rogers back in the new phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

He Already Passed On The Shield To A New Captain America

In the upcoming phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Thor and Clint Barton has yet to give their powers to their mantles Jane Foster and Kate Bishop, respectively. Steve Rogers / Captain America has already passed on his shield to a new Captain America. Steve has chosen his replacement by himself, and it has been covered in the film Avengers: Endgame. If Marvel brings him back, it would not be a great idea and can result in fatigue taking place in the MCU. This article concludes the five things that show why the Marvel Cinematic Universe should not bring back Steve Rogers / Captain America in the new phase of the MCU.
