editor0 CommentsEntertainmentaward, golden globes, hollywood

Amid growing pressure on the Hollywood Foreign Press Association from studios, stars and large swaths of the film industry, NBC said Monday that will not air the Golden Globes in 2022, putting in doubt the viability of one of Hollywood’s oldest and most-watched award shows. Criticism of the HFPA, which puts on the Globes and has been denounced for a lack of diversity and for ethical impropriates, reached such a pitch Monday that Tom Cruise returned his three Globes to the press association’s headquarters, according to a person who was granted anonymity because they weren’t authorized to speak publicly about the decision.…

The trailer for Venom’s sequel, titled Venom: Let There Be Carnage, is out. By the looks of it, more exciting adventures await Tom Hardy’s half symbiote and half-human character Venom. We also get a good glimpse of Woody Harrelson’s villain who will most likely unleash maximum carnage on our anti-hero. Things begin normally, with Tom Hardy’s character and the symbiote sharing their body and consciousness. The latter even singing through the breakfast, which is an indication of not only the potential comic relief that awaits fans, but shows how the symbiote is adapting quickly to earth. Later, a wild-looking Woody…

editor0 CommentsEntertainmentendgame, hollywood, marvel, mistake

Everyone remembers the Captain America scene in the blockbuster Avengers: Endgame climax but few would have noticed that it was not completely logical. The anomaly came to light only when the film’s writers sat down to talk after the film became one of the highest earners ever, and every move of the superheroes was put under the microscope. In case of ‘the’ Captain America scene where he calls the Mjolnir, Thor’s hammer, and proves he is worthy, it comes accompanied by lightning. Now, earlier in the MCU, it has been reiterated by many, including Odin, that Thor can summon the Mjolnir without…

Elon Musk’s turn as host of this week’s Saturday Night Live television program will be a light-hearted, brand-building break from the pressures of running Tesla Inc and SpaceX – or land the billionaire in another bucket of hot water. That uncertainty appears to be the point for both Musk and NBCUniversal’s CMCSA.O venerable comedy sketch show. Elon Musk has been encouraging fans and detractors to anticipate shenanigans, potentially involving the Dogecoin cryptocurrency.

Acting, even in commercial summer blockbusters, is not easy. Robert Downey Jr was considered talented when he was cast as Iron Man, but was hardly a phenomenon that he became later. Apart from the inner demons and Marvel Studio’s qualms he had to overcome, getting into the suit of multi-billionaire weapons manufacturer-turned-superhero wasn’t easy. Literally. When Downey Jr donned the Iron Man suit for the first time in 2008’s Iron Man, he actually had to wear an uncomfortable metal suit. Not many know that Marvel shot the film on limited budget. It went on to become a blockbuster and became the stepping…
