gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-10-30 04:00:05

Ankylosaurs were squat and thick four-legged dinosaurs with club tails and tough body armor. In other words, invincible Pokémon. A new fossil discovery, however, has revealed that the earliest ankylosaurs were several orders of magnitude more badass than their descendants. In a study published today in the journal Nature, researchers describe the partial skeleton of a Spicomellus, a genus of early ankylosaurs, unearthed in Morocco and dating to around 165 million years ago.

The Director of ‘RRR’ Is Pulling a ‘Kill Bill’ With Another Fantasy Epic

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-11-01 03:00:15

In 2015 and 2017, director S.S. Rajamouli released a two-part fantasy epic for the ages. Baahubali: The Beginning and Baahubali 2: The Conclusion told the sweeping tale of a lost prince’s rise to power in a cruel and unforgiving kingdom, each of which became one of India’s highest-grossing films of all time.
