The holidays are a time of caring, giving, and huge amounts of stress. Pluto TV gets it. So they created their Holidays Are Brutal collection, a list of action-packed movies to help you work out some of that tension, including Charlie’s Angels, Rush Hour, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Gladiator, Blade 1-3, The Mummy, and The Mummy Returns. But that's not all. To celebrate the holidays with some chaotic fun, Pluto TV offered fans a free and festive rage-room experience. Visitors were welcomed to pick up a bat, a crowbar, or a hammer and have at Christmas tree ornaments, pretty plates and glasses adorned with reindeer and Santa Claus imagery, and some movie-themed props like a potted Love Fern (How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days) and at a set of drums (Stepbrothers). Mashable didn't just announce these rage-room festivities. We joined in, going wild like a Grinch come Christmas. And it was an absolute blast. Enjoy the video, where Entertainment Editor Kristy Puchko goes Harley Quinn, slinging a bat at all manner of yuletide trimmings, while Executive Producer Mark Stetson captures the mayhem — sometimes in slo-mo!

TCL's TV announcement at CES 2026 doesn't follow the RGB trend that was expected from the big TV brands. Still, the new flagship TCL X11L SQD-Mini LED TV could wind up being one of the brightest and most impressive TVs of the year. This version of mini-LED isn't the same mini-LED setup that we've been seeing from the best TVs in recent years. First announced in China in Sept. 2025, TCL's SQD technology stands for Super Quantum Dot. Gizmochina explains that SQD utilizes a single-chip pure white light source instead of the true red, green, and blue light sources seen in the Micro RGB TVs debuted by Samsung and LG this CES season. Credit: TCL SEE ALSO: What to look for when buying a TV, as told through this easy TV specs guide But the goal is the same: to produce ultra-high peak brightness, typically only possible with QLED and mini-LED panels, and pristine black levels and contrast, typically only possible with OLED panels — simultaneously. Mashable got the chance to preview the new flagship TCL TV ahead of CES 2026, and it's intensely bright. On top of that, a TCL representative told Mashable they believe this TV will be able to compete head-to-head with the new flagship Micro RGB TVs recently announced by Samsung and LG. The TCL X11L also features a unique speaker strip along the bottom bevel, with Bang & Olufsen audio.The TCL X11L SQD-Mini LED TV: The specsThe X11L achieves what TCL calls "100 percent BT2020 color" through 20,000 discrete dimming zones (three times more than the premium TCL QM9K). Past the 10,000 peak nits of brightness, that should provide a ton of opportunity for precise tweaks to lighting during dark scenes that are often a problem area for non-OLED TVs.

After almost a decade, Stranger Things has come to an end — and even though some fans aren't happy with how things left off, the finale still has plenty of people talking. SEE ALSO: 'Stranger Things' fans are furious about the finale. Here's why. One topic that's dominated social media is the ultimate fate of Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown). Towards the end of the finale the series protagonist appears to sacrifice herself by staying in the Upside-Down while the dimensional bridge to the Abyss is blown to smithereens, eliminating any possibility of the military breeding more children with her telepathic powers and continuing their cruel experiments. Featured Video For You Gaten Matarazzo on 'Stranger Things' 'SNL' shoutout, Dustin and Steve's big fight, and why AI is 'lame' But then, during a final D&D campaign in the very last scene, Mike (Finn Wolfhard) puts forward an alternative theory. What if the image they all saw of El standing in the doorway to the Upside-Down was really just a projection made by Eight/Kali (Linnea Berthelsen)? Could it be that the real El actually made a pact with her fellow Hawkins Lab survivor, managed to slip back into the real world while everyone was distracted, and is now living out her days in another part of the world under a new identity as Mike's story suggests?The Duffer Brothers' show refuses to confirm what really happens — but some fans are speculating that the clues point to El being alive.What's the clue on the bookshelf?One of these clues is on the bookshelf in the Wheeler's basement at the very end of the episode, where the main gang go and return their D&D campaign binders once and for all. In the episode itself it's hard to read the titles of the books surrounding the binders — but in one of the behind-the-scenes images posted on Instagram by Stranger Things star Noah Schnapp, we can get a clearer look (swipe through to the final image). View this post on Instagram As fans have already pointed out on Reddit, one of the books is The Empty Copper Sea by John D. MacDonald — a 1978 novel about a detective investigating a possible faked death.It seems highly unlikely this choice by the Stranger Things production team is a coincidence, so could it be another hint that Mike's theory about El is correct? Maybe. Although if you were being cynical, you could also argue that a grieving Mike may just have spent the past 18 months reading stories about fake deaths while he was working on his own theory about El.Ultimately, the fate of Eleven is hidden in the minds of the Duffer Brothers, and they're not giving anything away. Still, we're choosing to believe.Stranger Things' final season is available to stream now on Netflix.

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck reunite as Miami cops for Netflix crime thriller The Rip, joined by a stellar cast including Steven Yeun and Teyana Taylor. Written and directed by The Grey's Joe Carnahan, the film sees the longtime Good Will Hunting pals as part of a drug busting unit who make one hell of a discovery during a raid: a casual $20 million cash stash. Thing is, some of them kind of knew about the treasure thanks to a cheeky tip, which means someone knows they knew. And now someone's made a direct call to the police threatening the lives of everyone in the stash house. Now, it's a wild trust exercise between getting out of there alive (and rich) or not.The Rip cast also includes Sasha Calle, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Scott Adkins, and Kyle Chandler, so expect this one to be one of Netflix's early 2026 buzz-prompters.The Rip debuts on Netflix Jan. 16.

The open earbuds market is about to be a lot more crowded.It wouldn't be CES without an audio announcement from premium headphones and speakers brand JBL — and this year's show is no exception. Announced at CES 2026 on Monday, JBL is diving deep into the open-ear headphones market with five new pairs of earbuds across three different lines.Open earbuds are one of the most popular earbuds trends from the past few years. They use air conduction to transmit sound to your ears and don't sit directly in your ear canal, allowing you to stay in tune with your environment. The market isn't nearly as saturated as noise-cancelling earbuds, making it a particularly good time for JBL to really throw its hat in the ring. The brand currently has just one pair of open earbuds available for purchase, so this announcement broadens the options for fans of JBL's audio technology. SEE ALSO: Open earbuds guide: What they are, who should buy them, and why they're popping up everywhere First up are two open-ear sports headphones in JBL's iconic Endurance line, dubbed the Endurance Zone and the Endurance Pace. These models are designed specifically for sports, giving users ways to train in comfort with uncompromising performance while staying aware. Next, the brand is introducing an OpenSound lineup featuring the JBL Sense Pro and JBL Sense Lite, two ear hook-style open earbuds with premium sound and comfort. And finally, the existing Soundgear lineup (which currently only features the Soundgear Sense earbuds) will double with the addition of the Soundgear CLIPS, ear clip-style earbuds that double as a fashion accessory.JBL Endurance Series The Endurance Zone earbuds come in white or black with gray. Credit: JBL The Endurance Pace earbuds come in just one color: black with gray (pictured). Credit: JBL JBL announced four new additions to its sporty Endurance Series at CES on Monday, including two distinct pairs of open-ear earbuds."The Endurance line has always been about performance without limits," said Carsten Olesen, President, Consumer Audio at HARMAN. "With this next generation, including JBL’s first open-ear sports headphone, we set out to give active listeners the freedom to train, move, and recover with greater awareness and comfort."Endurance ZoneThe Endurance Zone earbuds utilize JBL OpenSound technology and a secure ear hook design (similar to the brand's popular Peak earbuds) with adaptable memory wire for a secure, flexible fit. They're built to power through any weather or workout, with IP68 certification, a rugged design, and 32 hours of battery life. Using the JBL Headphones app, you can even customize the touch controls to suit your needs. The Zones come in white or black with gray and will be available this month on JBL.com for $179.95.Endurance Zone specs:Ear hook designDual beamforming mics on each bud for four total mics Bluetooth 5.3IP68 Certified Multipoint Connection + Fast Pair enabled by Google Battery life up to 32 hours of playtime (eight hours in the earbuds and another 24 hours in the case) Speed charge provides three hours in 10 minutes Google Finder and Google Audio Switch Lanyard hole on the case for convenient carry Personalization via the JBL Headphones app Endurance PaceThe Pace open earbuds feature an even more secure fit for vigorous workouts, thanks to a titanium memory wire neckband that can bend and flex without ever losing its shape. Like the Zone earbuds, they're also IP68-rated for waterproof and sweatproof protection. The OpenSound technology ensures your music hits hard with directional audio and powerful bass, while still keeping you in touch with your surroundings. The battery life is pretty solid at 10 hours, but a 10-minute Speed Charge gives you an extra four hours should you need it.

Both pairs focus on maintaining high-quality audio that doesn't obstruct the ear canal. "We’ve harnessed our deep audio expertise to deliver a full, bass-rich sound through air conduction, something previously unheard of in open-ear designs," Olesen said of the new Sense Pro and Sense Lite earbuds.Sense ProThe top-of-the-line open-ear headphones in JBL's lineup, the Sense Pros are built for audiophiles who still want to remain in tune with the outside world. They utilize advanced air conduction technology and an Adaptive Bass Boost Algorithm for premium sound quality through 16.2mm drivers. They're also built for busy lifestyles and incorporate four microphones as well as JBL Voice Pickup Sensor technology for clear calls in noisy places. Other perks include spatial sound, wireless charging, and up to 38 hours of battery life. The JBL Sense Pro will be available in black or white for $199.95 in March 2026.Sense Pro specs:JBL Open Sound Technology and Spatial SoundHi-Res Audio Wireless with Adaptive Bass BoostFour mics for crisp, clear calls JBL Voice Pickup Sensor Technology Adjustable ear hook for all-day comfort Bluetooth 6.0 Dual Connect + Fast Pair enabled by Google Up to 38 hours of playtime (Earbuds: eight hours; Case: 30 hours) with Speed Charge (10 minutes equals four hours) Wireless charging Personi-Fi 3.0 Touch control with customization via the JBL appSense LiteEssentially a pared-down version of the Sense Pros, the Sense Lites offer simplified aesthetics and features.

The battery life is about the same, but the case holds just slightly less of a charge at 24 hours versus 30. With the pared-down features, you'll also pay $50 less.

Credit: JBL Add the CLIPS to your earring stack or pair them with sunglasses without issue. Credit: JBL Last, but not least — my personal favorite in the new lineup — are the Soundgear CLIPS, which join the existing Sense earbuds in the Soundgear series. The most fashion-forward of the bunch, the CLIPS feature a lightweight design that clips to your ear like an earring cuff (similar to the Shokz OpenDots One). Plus, they come in four translucent colors. Their SonicArc shape positions the speaker for enhanced bass performance with less sound leakage, meaning your calls and tunes will remain private. Paired with the Adaptive Bass Boost algorithm and four AI-enhanced mics, you'll forget the Soundgear CLIPS aren't actually in your ear canals.

Jimmy Kimmel picked up the prize for best talk show at the Critics Choice Awards on Sunday, and he made sure to pay tribute to one of the many people that's made it all possible: Donald Trump."FIFA Peace Prize would have been better, but this is nice too," said Kimmel as he took to the stage, making reference to the controversial award given to the U.S. president by football's governing body.

Your actions were important, and we appreciate them. And most of all I want to thank our president, Donald Jennifer Trump — without whom we would be going home empty-handed tonight," Kimmel continued."So thank you, Mr President, for all the many ridiculous things you do each and every day. It's been a banner couple of weeks and we can't wait to get back on the air tomorrow night to talk about them."Kimmel's speech makes reference to the many people in the entertainment industry, including fellow late show hosts like Stephen Colbert, Jon Stewart, Seth Meyers, and John Oliver, who came to his defence after ABC's parent company Disney suspended Jimmy Kimmel Live! in Sept. 2025. The decision was made following a threat from Federal Communications Commission (FCC) chair Brendan Carr's to punish ABC over comments made by Kimmel during a monologue following the killing of far-right commentator Charlie Kirk.Kimmel's show was reinstated less than a week later, with the host's return monologue becoming the most-watched on his YouTube channel.We've rounded up the full list of winners at the Critics Choice Awards on Mashable.
