Zombie Dong Will Return in ’28 Years Later: The Bone Temple’

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2026-03-01 22:45:00

Two topics of conversation dominated the opening weekend of Danny Boyle’s new film, 28 Years Later. One, that wild ending that introduced a seemingly out-of-place controversial new character. And two was the sheer amount, and size, of the penises seen in the film. Throughout 28 Years Later, the Rage virus-infected zombies that run around the mainland are all naked. As one would be if you’d been running around killing people as a zombie for 30 years. That means, yes, there’s lots of nudity in th

Have you ever wondered about the distance between Tatooine and Naboo? How about Obi-Wan Kenobi's accumulated mileage during the Clone Wars? The good news is that the force is with you: All of your questions are answered by the new Star Wars Galactic Map. The map divvies up the Star Wars galaxy into important regions. Movie fans might be familiar with the core worlds (where Coruscant is) and the outer rim (where you can find Tatooine), but the deep core, colony worlds, inner rim, expansion regio

I Can’t Stop Staring at This Massive ‘Star Wars’ Galaxy Map

For as many times, narratively speaking, Star Wars‘ universe can feel awfully small in much of its recent output, it’s always nice to be reminded that, actually, the scope of the galaxy far, far away is incomprehensibly vast. Especially if we can be reminded such an incredibly nerdy manner: via the medium of a massive, updated official map of that galaxy. Today the official Star Wars website, to sit alongside its own interactive timeline of the eras of Star Wars‘ past and future, released an up

Tesla’s robotaxi reality check

theverge.com David Pierce 2026-03-03 22:11:55

After years of grand promises about how robotaxis would change the way we buy and use our cars, Tesla finally launched its taxi service. In one small portion of one city. With only a few cars and a few riders. Plus safety monitors in the passenger seat. Caution is a good thing in this industry, but what does all this say about where Tesla’s self-driving efforts really stand? After that, The Verge’s Allison Johnson joins the show to dive deep on MVNOs. In the United States, the cell market is co

’28 Years Later’ Filmmakers Break Down That Controversial Surprise Ending

The ending of 28 Years Later flips the entire movie on its head. After almost two hours of dread and pain, the film ends on a high-energy, seemingly out-of-left-field action sequence that leaves almost every audience member scratching their head. What the hell was that? What is the point? Well, clearly, you can interpret it however you’d like, but director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland do have some thoughts on the matter.

Elon Musk’s lawyers claimed that he “does not use a computer” in a Sunday court filing related to his lawsuit against Sam Altman and OpenAI. However, Musk has posted pictures or referred to his laptop on X several times in recent months, and public evidence suggests that he owns and appears to use at least one computer.

That would be “Boots,” a 1903 poem by Jungle Book creator Rudyard Kipling (and performed by Taylor Holmes in 1915) inspired by the monotony of British soldiers marching hundreds of miles in southern Africa.

Scientists Working to Decode Signal From Earliest Years of Universe

As mysterious as the Big Bang that gave birth to the universe is the brief but tumultuous period that immediately followed it. How did the cosmos transform from a uniform sea of darkness into a chaotic swirl brimming with radiant stars? What were these first stars like, and how were they born? So far, we have very strong suspicions, but no hard answers. One reason is that the light from this period, called the cosmic dawn, is extremely faint, making it nearly impossible to infer the traits of t

When Humans Learned to Live Everywhere

Geography is one of the things that sets apart modern humans. Our closest living relatives — chimpanzees and bonobos — are confined to a belt of Central African forests. But humans have spread across every continent, even remote islands. Our species can thrive not only in forests, but in grasslands, swamps, deserts and just about every other ecosystem dry land has to offer.

In the years since Lucasfilm overhauled Star Wars continuity—reclassifying years of Expanded Universe material as “Legends” before wiping a clean slate of continuity it has developed over the last decade-plus—much of what has been rebuilt has been done so off of the back of re-canonizing elements of that old material.
