The Real Emotion That Brought the Earworms of ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ to Life

Sony Pictures Animation and Netflix have a hit on their hands with KPop Demon Hunters, the fantasy action film that’s given us a trio of new heroines who slay evil while singing truly infectious music. The pop tracks stay with you long after the movie’s over, and it’s a testament to the incredible collaboration between the filmmakers, Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans, and songwriter EJAE.

Instagram announced Monday that it’s finally adding the ability for users to listen to previews of songs that they’ve shared from Spotify to Stories. While Instagram has long allowed users to share Spotify songs to their Stories, it would do so without sound, and simply provide a link to the song on the streaming platform.

An "Indie Rock Band" That Appears to Be Entirely AI-Generated Is Making Alarming Amounts of Money on Spotify

‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ Is a Suitably Fun, Undeniably Thin Dino Adventure

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2026-03-21 19:01:51

Jurassic World Rebirth is everything both good and bad about the Jurassic franchise rolled into one. It borrows from the original film with a straightforward story that quickly pits our heroes against a new group dynamic: terrifying dinosaurs. However, it lacks much of the rich characterization and emotions inherent to making that story special. You’re glad that it’s fast-paced and action-packed, but bummed you don’t care that much about it. In the end, though, especially after the previous film

Rollie Pemberton was barely a teenager when he started rapping. His hometown, Edmonton, didn’t have much of a hip-hop scene in the early aughts, so he honed his craft online. He plugged an old-school microphone into his mom’s desktop computer, recorded a few verses, later turned them into tracks, and sent them out into the burgeoning music blogosphere.

Time Is Three-Dimensional and Space Is Just a Side Effect, Scientist Says

A fringe new theory suggests that time is the fundamental structure of the physical universe, and space is merely a byproduct. According to Gunther Kletetschka, a geologist — not a physicist, you'll note, but more on that later — from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, time is three-dimensional and the dimensions of space are an emergent property of it, a press release from the university explains.

Universal Asked That Scenes Be Added Back Into ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’

There’s a reason why the biggest, most famous filmmakers in the world all want “final cut” of their movies. It’s because they don’t want anyone, least of all a studio executive, to have an impact on their vision. More often than not, when studios meddle in editing, it’s to make films shorter. However, the exact opposite happened on the new Jurassic film, Jurassic World Rebirth.

One of the weirdest choices made in the previous three Jurassic World films was not to lean on John Williams’ iconic score from the original Jurassic Park. On the one hand, you understand the score elicits emotions very specific to that one movie and won’t always necessarily line up with the story being told. But, on the other hand, it’s a Jurassic Park movie; hit us with that John Williams goodness. Jurassic World Rebirth, which opens in theaters July 2, makes use of Williams’ themes at severa

Clocking in 14 minutes longer than the original film, the extended version (which is streaming on Peacock) is somehow both better and worse than its predecessor at the exact same time.

It's widely considered to be the only truly new acoustic instrument invented in the 20th century. However, handpans and steelpans take serious skill to play.
