This phone will self-destruct in ten seconds

Boeing is set to debut the smartphone every "Mission Impossible" fan would love to have - a new secure phone for government agencies and defense contractors that will self-destruct if it's tampered with. It just won't be won't be quite as dramatic as the old television show. There won't be any smoke or explosions, but the contents of the device will be completely erased. "Any attempt to break open the casing of the device would trigger functions that would delete the data and software contained within the device and make the device inoperable," explained a company filing with the Federal Communications Commission. The company is giving few details about the phone, which will be called "Boeing Black." Pricing and an exact release date have yet to be disclosed, though it is expected to be out by this summer. Even then, don't expect to be able to buy it at your local electronics store because this baby is geared towards defense and security customers. But enough about that because the hugely popular block-building game Minecraft could soon be turned into a film. Minecraft creator Markus Persson revealed this week that the game's maker was talking to Warner Brothers about the project. Mr Persson said he revealed the news to thwart someone else who was trying to leak information about the deal. Movie news site Deadline reported the one of the producers of the recent Lego Movie is handling the project. Warner was planning to turn a "live action" version of the game into a film, said Deadline. Work on the film is at a very early stage as Warner only recently acquired the rights to use Minecraft's iconic blocks, characters, and monsters. And if the movie turns a good enough profit, it will most certainly be one worth seeing. Not worth seeing, however, is the British Museum's Vikings exhibition, and surprise surprise - it has been announced that a live show offering a guided tour of the exhibition is to be screened in cinemas. The event, on 24 April, will give a close-up view of Norse treasures featuring in the display, which opens on 6 March in London. Vikings Live will include a torch-lit ship burial in the museum's forecourt. The worldwide screening follows last year's Pompeii Live, which took £471,000 at the UK box office alone (which is still a lot less than many of the big blockbusters of 2013). The one-off event, focusing on the museum's exhibition about the volcano-stricken Roman city, made number 10 in the weekly film chart. British Museum director Neil MacGregor said the Vikings event would build on that success, going to 380 UK cinemas and some 50 countries around the world. "We're going to reach an even larger public," he said, adding the "worldwide opportunity to see what goes on here through cinema is very important". Seriously, don't do it. Museums are boring as, so don't subject yourself to that crap. If you had a choice between that and a Justin Bieber concert, please PLEASE choose the Justin Bieber concert, and even then, wear earmuffs throughout the show so you don't have to listen to what is essentially Elmo on helium.
