Hit Man - All the Famous Killer Easter Eggs

This article contains spoilers for Hit Man."People are disappointed when they learn that hit men don’t really exist," explains Gary Johnson. That might be a surprising statement given that it occurs early on in a movie called Hit Man. Throughout the film, Gary (Glen Powell) dons different disguises to meet with people who want to pay him money (or video games or boats) to kill people. But then again, it’s all a ruse, a police sting operation that mild-mannered teacher Gary does as a side gig....

He’d had his wits about him all day, talking about painting and socialism and literature. A trip back to the house couldn’t hurt.It was a s...

All of the Lingering Questions Ahead of Season 2 of Yellowjackets

Showtime/Getty Images/Ringer illustration            Seriously, like, all of them—because when a question is answered in this cannibal-teen mystery, it only raises more questions Season 1 of Yellowjackets starts not simply with a bang, but with an antler-wearing, throat-slitting, trap-setting, howling, cannibalizing cult. Of all the body horror headed our way throughout the first 10 episodes of Yellowjackets—the dreams of rotisserie-chicken babies and visions of land-use lawyers in business-c...

Contagious visual blandness of Netflix

Last week I saw M3GAN, the new horror-comedy starring Allison Williams and a robot-doll in a blond wig. I liked it enough. The doll character is genuinely well-done—a seemingly hard-to-nail mix of creepy and campy—but I walked out of the theater with a vaguely empty feeling. I couldn’t quite place it until I started talking with my friends about where the movie was set, and I realized I had no idea. One answer is somewhere in Silicon Valley, given its bald critique of big tech. It didn’t actu...

Chlorine

As deadly as it is beautiful, chlorine's characteristic yellow hue turns to a viscous, deep yellow-orange liquid when pressurized to over 1000(!) Psi - as in this little ampoule. If you were to heat this cube in boiling water (don't though!) it would cross the supercritical liquid-vapor point and the liquid would appear to vanish. After cooling down it would suddenly condense back out into a half and half state.

Readers of a certain age may remember the underground comics character Mr. Natural. The brainchild of artist Robert Crumb, Mr. Natural was a likeable con man with a long white beard and flowing yellow gown. Having supposedly renounced the material world, he traded on his mystique of genuineness all the while winking to the readers of his comic strip. Likewise, the label natural connotes a certain imagery: freshly grown food, pure water, safe consumption. Things described as natural are port...
