Today, July 17, is celebrated as World Emoji Day thanks to this day being marked on the iOS “calendar” emoji. In celebration, Apple has updated the iTunes Movies storefront with a new emoji-filled carousel that uses the popular smartphone characters to describe recent film releases, as well as older movies.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Some of the films referenced include Kong: Skull Island<\/em>, Beauty and the Beast<\/em>, Get Out<\/em>, Stephen King’s It<\/em>, Logan<\/em>, Arrival<\/em>, and more. The iTunes emoji makeover is simply a visual overhaul of the store with no sale prices appearing on any of the participating films.<\/p>\n

Apple often updates the iTunes Movies storefront to coincide with new film releases, most recently offering a LEGO makeover<\/a> to celebrate the digital release of The LEGO Batman Movie<\/em>. Earlier in June, a few decade-based film collections were put on sale<\/a> on iTunes to give users the chance to get bundles of films together at lower prices.<\/p>\n
