Cineworld, owner of the largest chain of theaters in the UK and Ireland and the second-largest in the United States — Regal Cinemas — will reportedly close all its theaters next week, according to Variety, The Sunday Times, and others.

Variety reports that all 543 theaters in the US will be closed, which account for the chain's 7,000+ screens in the region. The Sunday Times reports that it will close all 128 theaters in the UK and Ireland, too.

Both say James Bond is the reason.

Yesterday, the 25th James Bond film — No Time to Die — was pushed back to April 2021 due to the ongoing pandemic, denying theaters one of the last major tentpole releases due out this year. Apparently, theaters were counting on Bond, specifically, to arrive on...

A shameful security flaw could have let anyone access your Grindr account

Posted: 03 Oct 2020 04:47 PM PDT

Grindr

You would think a dating app that knows your sexuality and HIV status would take thorough precautions to keep that info protected, but Grindr has disappointed the world once again — this time, with a gobsmackingly egregious security vulnerability that could have let literally anyone who could guess your email address into your user account.

Luckily, French security researcher Wassime Bouimadaghene discovered the vulnerability, perhaps before it could be exploited, and it's now been fixed.

Unluckily for Grindr, the company ignored his disclosures — until security researcher Troy Hunt (of Have I Been Pwned) and journalist Zack Whittaker (of TechCrunch) each confirmed the issue and wrote about it.

The details need to be seen...

YouTube 4K has now come to Apple TV, iPhone and iPad, but no HDR or 60fps on TV

"A big frustration with the Apple TV 4K is about to be history," my colleague Chris Welch wrote, when we learned that Apple's premiere set-top box would finally be able play 4K YouTube videos at their native resolution instead of being stuck at 1080p. These days, even a $40 dongle can do better than that.

But though Apple's latest software updates did bring YouTube 4K to the Apple TV 4K, the frustrations aren't necessarily over. It turns out you're limited to watching 4K at 30fps, instead of a smooth 60 frames per second, and without the depth of color and contrast that High Dynamic Range (HDR) provides. That's what 9to5Mac noticed yesterday, and we've confirmed with Google that — for now — Apple TV only supports 4K at 30fps with SDR...

Your first real look at the Monster Hunter movie is 13 seconds of surprised soldiers with guns

Posted: 03 Oct 2020 12:07 PM PDT

James Bond may not avert his next death until 2021, but apparently Paul W.S. Anderson's Monster Hunter movie will still hit the big screen this year: the just-posted official teaser trailer for the movie confirms that it'll arrive this December, "only in theaters."

At just 13 seconds of footage, it's not much of a teaser — and where are the swords? Milla Jovovich mans a minigun, and her squad has a couple rifles at their disposal. But as our sister site Polygon points out, it does give us a glimpse at a Black Diablos, which is just the sort of gigantic sand-loving Triceratops-esque mega-beasts that the teaser seems to show.

Don't worry about those swords, by the way. As the movie's synopsis makes clear, Jovovich and co will trade their...

Apple is hiding a smile behind its new mask emoji

In a move that, I'm sure, has absolutely no relation to anything going on in the world today, Apple has quietly updated its "Face with Medical Mask" emoji with friendlier eyes, eyebrows, and rosy cheeks. Before, it looked a little lethargic. Now, it's almost happy? You can practically imagine a smile underneath.

Except you don't have to imagine. Wait for it:

As Emojipedia points out, the new emoji is literally Apple's existing "Smiling Face" with a mask on top. Do you think the artist was imagining a frown under there? Probably not.

Juxtaposition: Emojipedia

It's just the latest way that emoji have evolved to express the anguish of 2020 — even as other emoji are getting delayed...

When coronavirus is on the guest list

Well, the coronavirus made it all the way to the White House. In a country that still maintains the highest numbers of cases in the world, that's not a huge surprise. The White House might be an exclusive, highly-guarded venue, but viruses generally can squeeze their way onto any guest list — all they have to do is slide past the velvet rope as someone's plus one.

That's the thing about this virus. It doesn't matter if you're a college football player, a nurse, a grocery store clerk, or the President. If the virus gets the chance to introduce itself to your body, it will probably take it.

Unfortunately, a lot of our normal lives are spent in situations where the virus could turn into a social butterfly. Normally, we work in offices or...
