The Latest ‘Demon Slayer’ Movie is Another Record-Breaking Hit

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-10-01 17:15:52

Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle came to the United States this weekend, and it’s doing numbers well ahead of projections. Per the Hollywood Reporter, the film—the first of a trilogy meant to bring the shonen fantasy series to a close—made an estimated $70 million domestic, double the $35-40 million predicted by analysts. But Sony’s been aggressive with marketing it, not to mention the anime itself is pretty popular on its own. It’s the biggest opening ever for an anime film in North America, the

Colman Domingo Used Jerry Springer to Build His ‘Running Man’ Villain

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-10-01 18:25:58

The upcoming Running Man remake is set in a United States where people watch contestants try to survive being hunted. Watch any game show (or reality TV in general), and the host is as important as the players themselves, and that’s where Colman Domingo comes in. He plays Bobby Thompson in the film, who hosts the titular blood sport that’s the talk of the country. We got a little bit of the character in the trailer, and according to Domingo, playing a guy like that is like “[being] in a whole d

Scarlet turns Shakespeare into an animated fantasy epic

theverge.com Andrew Webster 2025-10-01 16:00:00

Well, I was wrong, and I did manage to make it to one last day at the Toronto International Film Festival. One of the movies I wanted to see the most this year was Scarlet, the latest from Mamoru Hosoda, whose most recent film was the metaverse fairy tale Belle. Whereas that film was a reimagining of Beauty and the Beast, Scarlet is a twist on Hamlet that’s full of bold, creative ideas. I mostly enjoyed it, but unfortunately it’s saddled with an ending that doesn’t really fit. I also managed to

From 'Orwell 2+2=5’ to 'Frankenstein’: TIFF's Films on Power, Creation, and Survival Are a Warning

Some of the most urgent films at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival aren’t here to soothe. Together, Orwell: 2+2=5, Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk, and Frankenstein play like sizzle reels of caution, and at their best, they’re award-worthy symbols of alarm. These films, the first two of which are documentaries, don’t just entertain—they confront fractured humanity, closeness and distance under Israel’s siege of Gaza, and a creation we’ve set loose, growing beyond our control.

Myocardial infarction may be an infectious disease

Safe C++ proposal is not being continued

One year ago, the Safe C++ proposal was made. The goal was to add a safe subset/context into C++ that would give strong guarantees (memory safety, type safety, thread safety) similar to what Rust provides, without breaking existing C++ code. It was an extension or superset of C++. The opt-in mechanism was to explicitly mark parts of the code that belong to the safe context. The authors even state: Code in the safe context exhibits the same strong safety guarantees as code written in Rust. The

As a movie lover who grew up on John Hughes and other filmmakers like him, I was trained from an early age to expect that high school would be filled with archetypes: bullies, popular kids, jocks, nerds and humorless and gruff authority figures. While we've evolved since then (at least a tiny bit), there's something about some of those now-classic '80s movies that remains endearing even if some of the characters and plot details feel problematic or downright silly by today's standards.
