‘Dumbest idea of all time’: Internet fumes as JioHotstar livestreams Dhurandhar The Revenge ‘like TV’ for OTT premiere

For people eager to watch Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar The Revenge from the comfort of their homes, the film’s June 4 debut on JioHotstar seemed like a reason to celebrate. But the excitement was short-lived. Soon after the release, social media was flooded with complaints from disgruntled viewers who realised that the platform was live-streaming the film. Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar The Revenge was released on Netflix internationally last month. Frustrated viewers took to social media, claiming the format stripped away one of the biggest perks of an OTT release — the freedom to watch on their own schedule – and dampened the overall viewing experience. Social media users fume Aditya Dhar’s spy thriller made its digital debut in India on JioHotstar on June 4, with the platform opting for a live-streaming format for the premiere. However, the film has been made available for regular streaming from June 5. One social media user wrote, “Hotstar is streaming Dhurandhar 2 in a live format, no OTT is as embarrassing as this one”, with another stating, “They streamed #Dhurandhar2 …

It’s baffling to see one of HBO’s biggest critical hits and a rare example of a successful video game adaptation, The Last of Us, embroiled in one of the most bizarre controversies. It happened in Season 1, and it’s happening again in Season 2 of the Pedro Pascal-led franchise. Bella Ramsey’s character is facing backlash simply because some fans think she doesn’t look enough like the character from the popular post-apocalyptic video game.

And while Season 1 pulled in Emmys, acclaim, and a lot of love, there’s a very vocal section of the internet that just never got over Bella’s face. Now, with Season 2 out and the story jumping ahead five years, that same hate is plaguing the season all over again. Why is everyone hating Bella Ramsey in The Last of Us Season 2? The internet is flooded with Reddit threads, social media rants, and photoshopped posters of The Last of Us Season 2 …

Does Adrian Brody regret skipping The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring? ( Photo Credit – Instagram ) The Oscar winner, Adrian Brody, admitted he didn’t quite get what he was being offered, and by the time he figured it out, it was already lighting up box offices and changing fantasy cinema forever. Brody spilled the regret in a throwback chat with GQ (via The Hollywood Reporter), saying producers approached him for the Peter Jackson epic, but he just wasn’t feeling it. “I, somehow, didn’t grasp it,” he said. “I don’t know what part I would have been right for, but it was some Hobbit-like character. I was looking for something else.” Translation: he wasn’t chasing hairy feet and wizard quests back then. But his “what was I thinking?” moment hit hard later. He remembered in the same interview sitting in the theater with his then-girlfriend, watching the film that became a cultural phenomenon. “She turned to me and said, ‘You passed on Lord of the Rings?!’ I remember feeling so stupid.” …
