A24s Opus trailer sees Ayo Edebiri uncover a literal cult of celebrity

Mashable - Tue, 01/21/2025 - 09:00

What happened to Moretti (John Malkovich), an iconic, red-flared, groundbreaking music star who retreated from public life three decades ago? That's the task given to journalist Ariel (Ayo Edebiri) in A24's new film Opus.

Written and directed by Mark Anthony Green, Opus sees The Bear star invited to Moretti's luxe compound in Utah for "an exclusive listening experience" of what appears to be his first work released in 30 years. Only a small selection of press have been extended the invitation. But there's a sinister plan afoot, and Ariel might be the only one who sees it beyond the towering displays of reverence and blue-clad cult followers ambling about the grounds.

It's a killer cast, this one; Amber Midthunder (Prey), Juliette Lewis (Yellowjackets), Murray Bartlett (The White Lotus), Stephanie Suganami (Power Book II: Ghost), Young Mazino (Beef), and Tony Hale (The Decameron) also star.

Opus is out in cinemas March 12.

Marvel Snap is back online in the U.S. amid TikTok ban

Mashable - Tue, 01/21/2025 - 07:24

Marvel Snap is back online in the U.S. following a brief absence in association with the TikTok ban.

The popular card battle game created by California-based developer Second Dinner was temporarily pulled from American app stores on Jan. 18, as the game is published by ByteDance-owned Nuverse. It was one of several apps pulled by the TikTok owner hours before the ban was set to take effect, alongside CapCut and Lemon8.

On Monday night, Second Dinner posted an update on X, saying Marvel Snap had been reinstated online, and that the developer was looking for a new publisher beyond Nuverse.

SEE ALSO: TikTok ban: Marvel Snap and 5 other apps also banned

"To make sure this NEVER happens again, we’re working to bring more services in-house and partner with a new publisher. This is the start of a new era for MARVEL SNAP," the post reads. "We know this probably leaves you with even more questions than answers. We appreciate your patience, but in the meantime enjoy playing MARVEL SNAP."

Tweet may have been deleted

Though it's available on Steam, Marvel Snap still isn't available in Apple's App Store or the Google Play Store in the U.S. at the time of writing. However, as Second Dinner wrote on X, "We're working on it. It may take some time. We'll keep you updated."

ByteDance's problems aren't over though. On the day of his inauguration, President Donald Trump signed a previously announced executive order to delay the U.S. TikTok ban for 75 days.

Is Instagram blocking the #Democrat hashtag?

Mashable - Tue, 01/21/2025 - 07:19

Is Instagram hiding the #Democrat hashtag from its users?

The answer, at least at the time of writing, appears to be yes — but the reasons why are still unclear.

SEE ALSO: 8 ways Mark Zuckerberg changed Meta ahead of Trump’s inauguration

In the early hours of Tuesday morning, the day after Donald Trump's inauguration, reports began to spread online that the #Democrat hashtag was being blocked for users of Meta's Instagram app.

Mashable attempted to access the hashtag via both mobile and desktop, but we were greeted by a message saying the results had been hidden as they "may contain sensitive content." A "learn more" link took us to Instagram's generic sensitive content help page.

A search for the #Republican hashtag, meanwhile, brought up a page of results as normal.

It's worth noting that as well as attending Trump's inauguration and donating $1 million to his fund, Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg has also made a number of changes to his platforms in the run-up to the new president being sworn in.

Mashable has reached out to Meta and we will update this story if we hear back.

Seth Meyers recaps the tech billionaire VIP-ness of Trumps inauguration

Mashable - Tue, 01/21/2025 - 06:45

Like fellow late night hosts Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, Seth Meyers recapped Donald Trump's inauguration on Monday, especially pausing for a moment to stare directly into the lineup of tech billionaires in attendance.

Meyers showed an image of the Silicon Valley heavyweights on the guest list — Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Alphabet Inc and Google CEO Sundar Pichai, Amazon founder and executive chairman Jeff Bezos. Meyers then pointed out the fact that cold temperatures had moved Trump's ceremony indoors to the Capitol rotunda, where Trump supporters weren't able to physically attend — instead opting to stand in the freezing cold and trying for a spot at the Capital One Arena in downtown Washington.

"That's right, MAGA supporters were left out in the cold while Trump gave toasty indoor VIP seats to the wealthy tech oligarchs, which brings us to a segment called 'Do I Really Have to Explain the Metaphor Here?'" said Meyers.

Jon Stewart reacts to Elon Musks salute at Trumps inauguration

Mashable - Tue, 01/21/2025 - 05:39

There was a lot to unpack about Donald Trump's inauguration day, from viral hats to the speech itself and the reaction it had online.

In the Daily Show clip above Jon Stewart breaks the day down, from an awkward gesture from Eric Trump to a significantly worse gesture from Elon Musk which looked a lot like a Nazi salute.

"OK. Charitably I'm just going to say that was an awkward, my heart goes out to you gesture. Many of you might have done it like this," says Stewart, miming a gesture where he uses both hands and keeps them close to his chest. "But you know, listen, it's a ****ing nerve-wracking day, you're not normally a public speaker, it's a one-off gesture..." Cue Stewart playing another clip of Musk repeating the salute a second time, this time to the back of the stadium. "Son of a bitch."

Stewart goes on to talk about Joe Biden's last minute pardons for his family, before giving the whole day the following, fairly depressing summary.

"So the takeaway of this entire day was, a man who tried to overthrow the government has been peacefully handed the reins of power, and the outgoing president has started a new tradition of blanket pardoning everyone in his orbit," he says. "The two men creating a magnificent, snake-sucking-its-own-dick cycle of no accountability."

Stephen Colbert recaps Trumps inauguration, declares airport rules

Mashable - Tue, 01/21/2025 - 05:32

"It happened. Donald Trump is president again."

Stephen Colbert pushed his Late Show audience back into the known unknown on Monday night, following Trump's inauguration as the 47th President of the United States.

"I have an important announcement to make," Colbert began his monologue. "For the next four years we get to live by airport rules. Calories don't count and it’s perfectly reasonable to have a vodka tonic at 8am."

Colbert recapped the viral moments from the inauguration, including Trump not touching the Bible during his presidential oath, and Trump's speech including the "Gulf of America" and Mars promises. Of course, like the internet, Colbert noticed the particularly memeable outfit choice of First Lady Melania Trump: "Melania Trump made a real statement with her look. That statement? I am Carmen Sandiego."

But it's Colbert's conclusion that really captured the moment:

"Today represents, I believe, a turning point, turning page for all Americans. Whether you supported Trump or not, no matter how much we think we know what’s going to happen over the next four years, we don’t know. We all have to look at the president with fresh eyes and let go of all the things that he did during his first term and look to the future… FUCK IT! He told us to inject bleach and I still believe there’s a pee pee tape! Russia, if you're listening, let the 'Golden Age' begin."

For more big moments from Trump's inauguration, Mashable's got you covered.

Turn any wall into a theater with an unbeatable deal on this mini projector

Mashable - Tue, 01/21/2025 - 05:00

TL;DR: You can save over $100 on the XGODY Gimbal 3 projector and get it shipped free — you won’t find a better deal anywhere else.

What’s the difference between a smart projector and a ‘dumb’ projector? Dumb projectors are the ones you’d find at someone’s yard sale because they’re clunky, only connect with an HDMI cord, and need a huge projection screen. Smart projectors? They can set up a movie or game night in minutes.

We’re looking at the XGODY Gimbal 3, a mini smart projector less than seven inches tall. Just plug it in and use the remote control to pick a movie — or pair your phone and pull up a YouTube video. These projectors even have a wise price: $67.99 with free shipping (reg. $169).

A classic remodeled for the modern age

Other ‘dumb’ projectors make you find your own way to watch movies, like manually hooking up a DVD player, but who wants to hassle with that? You may as well just watch your TV. But the XGODY is like a Roku and a projector in one.

This is what we mean: plug the ultra-portable projector in, point it at a blank wall, and turn it on. Then, grab the remote and browse through the built-in streaming apps, like a Roku or smart TV — no need to hook anything up manually. 

The XGODY is also a Bluetooth projector, so you can stream movies or games from your phone or computer if the need ever arises. And for those living a more old-school lifestyle, you can hook up HDMI or USB devices or audio gadgets.

Grab this projector for movie nights or your gaming console for only $67.99 with free shipping (reg. $169).
