NYT Connections July 15, 2025 hints and answers: Get today's full solution breakdown with categories- If you're playing today's NYT Connections for July 15, 2025 (#765) and finding it tricky to crack all four word groups, we've got you covered. This daily word puzzle from The New York Times continues to challenge players to spot subtle patterns and associations between seemingly random words. But if a few categories are keeping you stuck, don't worry—we'll walk you through today's hints, themes, and full answers with everything you need to solve it. What's NYT Connections and how does it work? The NYT Connections puzzle gives players a 4x4 grid of 16 words, asking them to group them into four sets of four. Each set shares a common link—sometimes obvious, other times quite abstract or based on wordplay. The challenge is to figure out what ties the words together. These links might be categories like tools, films, phrases, or synonyms. You get four chances to make incorrect guesses before the game ends. Categories are color-coded by difficulty: Yellow: Easy Green: Medium Blue: Hard Purple: Most difficult (often tricky or abstract) What are today's NYT Connections hints and themes? Here are your quick hints for July 15—ranked by difficulty level: Yellow group hint: What you'd see in Olympic gymnastics—think of apparatus Simone Biles uses. Green group hint: All about being forced out or removed from somewhere. Blue group hint: These are 2022 horror movies that spooked theaters. Purple group hint: Add 'horse' in front of these for some interesting compound terms. If you want to solve it on your own, try thinking in terms of categories like sports equipment, movie titles, and common compound phrases. Live Events What are the answers for NYT Connections on July 15, 2025? If you're ready for the full solution, here's the breakdown of all four correct groups: Yellow group – Gymnastics apparatus Words: BARS, BEAM, RINGS, VAULT These are all apparatuses used in gymnastics, especially in women's and men's artistic competitions. Think Olympics. Green group – Force to leave Words: BOOT, BOUNCE, EJECT, REMOVE Each of these words can mean to kick someone out —whether it's from a bar, a meeting, or a team. Blue group – Horror movies from 2022 Words: NOPE, PEARL, SCREAM, SMILE These were all horror films released in 2022 . Notably: Nope by Jordan Peele Pearl , a prequel to X Scream , the reboot sequel Smile , a viral horror hit Purple group – Horse ____ Words: FEATHERS, PLAY, POWER, SHOE When you put 'Horse' in front of each: Horsefeathers Horseplay Horsepower Horseshoe This was the most abstract group today and quite tricky. What makes today's NYT Connections puzzle difficult? Puzzle #765 balances a clean progression from easy to hard. The gymnastics group is straightforward, especially if you're familiar with Olympic sports. But the purple set, involving 'horse' compound words, leans heavily into linguistic creativity, making it the toughest. The horror movie group is challenging unless you're a fan of modern cinema or remember the 2022 film slate. And the green group can mislead with synonyms or similar-sounding terms—highlighting how red herrings are part of the strategy. How to get better at solving NYT Connections? If you're looking to improve your streak or finish faster, here are a few quick tips: Start with the obvious. Look for words that are concrete objects or direct actions. Say the words out loud. This helps spot phrases like 'Horsepower' or 'Boot out.' Hit the shuffle button. Sometimes rearranging the grid gives your brain a fresh perspective. Look for pop culture clues. If a word sounds like a movie title, it might be just that. 💡 Pro tip: NYT Connections often includes wordplay or trick phrases. It's not always about meaning—sometimes it's about how the words sound or pair with others. Today's NYT Connections puzzle The NYT Connections puzzle for July 15, 2025, is a perfect example of how the game blends language, culture, and lateral thinking. Whether you're a horror movie buff or a gymnastics fan, today's puzzle had something for everyone—but it also tested your mental flexibility, especially with the 'horse' wordplay.

Hideo Kojima has been hard at work editing the final Death Stranding 2 trailer – one he says will make people go, "What?!"

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. As the wait for Hideo Kojima's long-awaited sequel Death Stranding 2 continues, the iconic director has been preparing the upcoming action-adventure game's final trailer – one he says might leave fans surprised. As translated by Genki in an online post, a recent Koji10 episode on YouTube sees the lead reveal that he's been hard at work recently on the last trailer before the Death Stranding 2 launch on June 26. Not only has Kojima been finalizing what's almost sure to be a cinematic masterpiece of a video while on land, however, but also while mid-air – that's right, he's been editing during flights on the plane by selecting clips to use on his iPad. Kojima promises new information regarding Death Stranding 2 to come to light once the big trailer releases later this month, but that's not all – he also hints that a moment about halfway through the video will leave viewers in awe, asking, "What?!" While he doesn't specify what that moment is or what shocking things it might unveil, it's exciting to think that an even more thought-provoking Death Stranding 2 trailer than the last is arriving. There are more exciting creations to come from Kojima than just the Death Stranding sequel, too. His upcoming project OD, which he describes as "a bit risky" and "a game like no other," is being produced in collaboration with comedian and filmmaker Jordan Peele, and the Death Stranding movie, which Kojima states is "not just a direct translation of the game," is also underway, presenting a "universe that has never been seen before."If Death Stranding and Metal Gear Solid ever crossover, Kojima knows who should be a porter, even though they "won't be able to carry things so much"

3 underrated Netflix movies you should watch this weekend (June 20-22)

Netflix is one of the biggest streaming services in the world, and having a subscription has become crucial to many people's existence. Even if you have a subscription, that doesn't necessarily mean you know what to check out first. If you're new to Netflix or are simply struggling with how to pick a movie to watch, we've got you covered. We've pulled together three underrated titles available on the streaming service that are well worth your time. Recommended Videos We also have guides to the best new movies to stream, the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, the best movies on Amazon Prime Video, the best movies on Max, and the best movies on Disney+. Us (2019) Jordan Peele's follow-up to Get Out understandably had significant hype, and Us turned out to be just as impressive an achievement. The film, which follows a Black family on vacation who find themselves battling for their lives against their duplicate versions, is in many ways even more unsettling than its predecessor. Just as crucially, Us is more ambitious and messier in interesting ways. Anchored by an incredible central performance from Lupita Nyong'o in dual roles, Us is about how much of the world it's necessary to ignore if you're going to survive in it. You can watch Us on Netflix. The Half of It (2020) Released in the midst of the pandemic, The Half of It didn't get the love that it probably should have. The film tells the story of a bright, introverted high school girl hired by a boy to write love letters on his behalf. After she finds herself falling in love with the same woman she's been hired to write letters to, she finds herself conflicted about what to do. The Half of It has some of the superficial trappings of your typical teen dramedy, but it's quieter and more thoughtful than most films of its ilk. And, thanks to three winning performances, it will leave you charmed and, perhaps, just a little wistful. You can watch The Half of It on Netflix. The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar (2023) Director Wes Anderson is a bit divisive, but The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar is one of his more accessible films. The 45-minute film stars Benedict Cumberbatch as the titular Sugar, an extraordinarily wealthy man who essentially learns how to practice magic so he can cheat at card games. Anderson's direction here is superb, and the movie itself feels a bit like a pop-up picture book filled with exciting images. Cumberbatch turns out to be a perfect fit for Anderson's approach to actors, and Henry Sugar feels like a full meal, even though it's a short film. You can watch The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar on Netflix.

DC Studios Might Be Close to Finding Its ‘Clayface' Star

Chad Stahleski discusses why John Wick is going anime. Charlie Cox teases how Jessica Jones enters the world of Daredevil: Born Again. Plus, more creepy Alien: Earth teases, and Mortal Kombat II's writer discusses trying to balance the sequel's expanded roster of kombatants. To me, my spoilers! Clayface According to THR, the George MacKay, Tom Blyth, Jack O'Connell and Leo Woodall are the top contenders to play the title character in Clayface. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Deadline has word Jordan Peele, Osgood Perkins, and Taylor Sheridan are pitching their respective takes for a new Texas Chainsaw Massacre film–although primarily as producers, rather than directors–as the franchise rights' go under auction today. Mortal Kombat II Speaking with Comic Book, Mortal Kombat II screenwriter Jeremy Slater discussed balancing the upcoming sequel's 20-fighter roster 'for maximum emotional impact.' I was adamant that we had to have this tournament in the movie. We can't make people wait another movie and then be like, 'Come back for the finale.' It was finding a structure to make the tournament as satisfying as you want it to be because this had years of build-up. It's figuring out who the individual matches are going to be, which characters do you pair off for maximum emotional impact, but also for the most dynamic fights. Then, also, what is the larger story you are telling between the tournament? It's a cast of 20 people. It's very easy for these things to become three-to-four-hour, sprawling epics, so you always have to be judicious in cutting things down and [focused on] what's the emotional story we are telling, and what is the story the audience cares about. Then making sure when you get to those moments that matter — the fights, the fatalities, the surprises, the deaths — that they land and they are as satisfying as everyone wants them to be. I think we nailed it. O.T.H.E.R. After returning to her childhood home, Olga Kurlyenko finds someone has installed 'a high-tech surveillance system' that 'tracks her every move as a dark presence lurks in the shadows' in the trailer for O.T.H.E.R. Freakier Friday Bodies get swapped for another whimsical cosmic reckoning in the latest trailer for Freakier Friday. Nyaight of the Living Cat We also have another trailer for Takashi Miike's Nyaight of the Living Cat. Daredevil: Born Again In conversation with Deadline, Charlie Cox seemed to imply Jessica Jones already knows Daredevil isn't dead following the events of The Defenders. When did Jessica Jones find out that I'm not dead? At the end of Defenders, everyone assumes I'm dead. There's a mutual respect for one another. She finds him overly serious and too much of a choir boy, and he finds her to be crass and making light of too many serious situations; she's more antihero than hero. Untitled John Wick Anime Speaking with THR, Chad Stahleski stated the upcoming John Wick prequel series is animated because 'Keanu and I are not interested in going backwards.' Keanu and I are not interested in going backwards. With the anime, you don't have to de-age, you don't have explain weird stuff, you don't have to add a backstory. You accept anime in its own language without explanations. Anime just goes pop. Resident Alien As his humanity worsens, Harry can't get the hang of drinking milk in a clip from this week's episode of Resident Alien. Alien: Earth FX has also released a couple more teasers for Alien: Earth. Rick and Morty Finally, Jerry becomes extremely buff after punching his way out of a crystal prison in the trailer for next week's episode of Rick and Morty.

Death Standing 2: On the Beach has gone gold, so Hideo Kojima can finally work on the several other projects he's announced

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, the post-apocalyptic cross-country delivery sim sequel, has gone gold. Director Hideo Kojima announces as much over on social media, alongside a few adorable pictures of the team, writing that the "journey begins soon" and you only have "just a little longer until June 26," AKA the game's full release date. For everyone out of the loop, going gold used to mean that an in-development game was complete and ready to be burned onto discs for physical distribution. The term has stuck around even when some games forego a physical release or when the teams are still working on a day one patch until the last second because, I guess, it sounds pretty cool. Regardless, Kojima Productions seems to have finished the version of Death Stranding 2 that'll be embedded onto your physical discs. That seemingly frees Hideo Kojima up to work on the several other projects that he announced while still actively directing his open-world follow-up. There's OD, the mysterious Xbox-backed horror game that's being made in collaboration with Jordan Peele and other "talented storytellers" yet to be announced. Then, he's going back to his action espionage roots with Physint. And he'll also, at least partially, be involved in A24's Death Stranding film adaptation helmed by A Quiet Place: Day One director Michael Sarnoski, who's done his gameplay research. Death Stranding 2 comes to PS5 on June 26, but if the first game's PC and Xbox ports were any indication, the sequel should be making the jump to other platforms in the years to come. For now, check out the other new games of 2025 and beyond to see what's next.
