FILM & TV 6 Take 5 7 Bob J’s Movie Classics 8 Candyman 10 Fast & Furious 9 12 Black Widow

WELCOME It’s a massive month in movies with Fast & Furious 9 delivering all the high- octane action, stunts and family dynamics that fans have come to expect, while Marvel’s Black Widow gives Scarlett Johnasson’s much-loved character her long overdue solo adventure. And a pair of perennial classics, Chopper and Amelie , celebrate their 20th birthday with new anniversary releases on Blu-ray and DVD. We look at long-awaited homegrown sounds from blues-rock legends Vika & Linda, punk-pals Amyl & the Sniffers, and neo-soul craftswoman Ngaiire; decorated English singer-rapper Little Simz encourages some introspection; and late First Nations icon Gurrumul gets a stunning anthology release, for which we spoke to the artist’s collaborator and confidante Michael Hohnen. Life Tech takes us into the kitchen and beyond with a good look at the latest tech in refrigeration, laundry, and small appliances. We also set up the perfect football finals day from home and check out Samsung’s latest release of smartphones. In games, things are hotting up for the year with big releases including shooter/puzzler Deathloop and all the basketball action of NBA 2K22 . Meanwhile, one of Mario’s nemeses (he has a few!), Wario, is up to his old tricks is WarioWare: Get It Together!, and Sonic the Hedgehog returns in Sonic Colours: Ultimate . Have you caught your breath yet? Paul Jones, Editor-in-Chief
