Published by Webster

In The Grey North America Box Office Projection( Photo Credit – YouTube ) In the Grey starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Henry Cavill is all set to be released in the theaters next month and early box office projections suggest a modest debut. As anticipation builds, the film’s opening weekend numbers will be closely compared to those of Henry Cavill’s last five theatrical releases, offering a clearer picture of where it stands among them. Keep scrolling for the deets. The film is directed by Guy Ritchie and produced by Black Bear Pictures. Eiza González, Kristofer Hivju, Fisher Stevens, and Rosamund Pike also feature in the crucial roles. Cavill had been having a dry spell at the box office; his past films, including Argylle and The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, had failed there. This upcoming movie is also not likely to help much in improving Cavill’s condition, per early projections. Debut weekends of Henry Cavill’s last five films in North America Henry Cavill’s last five wide releases span a wide range of genres and box office scales. …

Dhurandhar The Revenge Box Office: Ranveer Singh film stacks up a massive Rs. 8 Cr in first 24 hours of advance

Dhurandhar The Revenge Box Office: Ranveer Singh film stacks up a massive Rs. 8 Cr in first 24 hours of advance

Published by Parlour News

The advance bookings for paid previews of Dhurandhar: The Revenge began yesterday. In the first 24 hours of sales, the film has sold over 175,000 tickets at the Indian box office, worth close to Rs. 8 crore nett approx. The strongest response has come from the bigger centres like Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad, which generally do best in advance. The smaller centres are generally less pre-sales driven, and all the more when it’s for unconventional previews and that too almost two weeks to release. However, the fact that the film has managed to put up sales even there itself is amazing and shows what is to come when the overall advances open. The two national chains (PVRINOX and Cinepolis) have contributed over 75 per cent of the revenue, selling 125,000 tickets. This is not the first day for the film, but previews. Still taking it as one, the sales at national chains come second behind 155,000 of Jawan over its first 24 hours. Jawan also had sales for the rest of weeknd, while Dhurandhar had …

The Bride Rotten Tomatoes Score (Photo Credit –Instagram) Christian Bale is one of Hollywood’s most versatile actors, known for delivering memorable performances across a wide range of genres: from American Psycho and The Machinist to The Dark Knight trilogy, The Prestige, The Fighter, and Ford v Ferrari. Meanwhile, Jessie Buckley continues to earn widespread acclaim for her Oscar-nominated performance in Chloe Zhao’s Hamnet. It’s therefore especially intriguing to see these two powerhouse performers come together for The Bride, a new big-screen adaptation inspired by Mary Shelley’s 1818 novel Frankenstein. Now that the film’s Rotten Tomatoes critics’ score has been revealed, it’s worth looking at how it stacks up against Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein and other modern, popular adaptations of the iconic monster tale. The Bride vs. Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein & Other Modern Adaptations – Rotten Tomatoes Score Comparison At the time of writing, the Maggie Gyllenhaal-directed Gothic romance The Bride holds a 62% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes.

How Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s golden U19 World Cup campaign stacks up against Virat Kohli’s memorable 2008 run

Published by Parlour News

Virat Kohli’s U19 World Cup in 2008 was a captain’s campaign – controlled, repeatable, built for winning tight games. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s 2026 run was a takeover – heavier volume, higher impact, and a finale that felt like a one-man show. Same stage, same India crest, but wildly different footprints. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi in 2026 and Virat Kohli in 2008 (AFP Images) The scoreboard view: how big was the gap? Start with the simplest truth. Kohli finished the 2008 U19 World Cup with 235 runs at an average of 47 across six innings. Solid output, made more valuable because he was leading the side. Sooryavanshi’s 2026 numbers are larger by a full tier: 439 runs in seven innings, averaging 62.71. That is not a marginal improvement – it is an extra strong run spread across the tournament.

How Supergirl Stacks Up Against Superman Reboot (Photo Credit – Instagram) The new DC Universe kicked off with a bang with James Gunn-directed Superman reboot, starring David Corenswet as the titular superhero. Boasting an 83% critics’ score and a 90% audience score (as per Rotten Tomatoes), the film not only earned rave reviews but also performed well at the box office. With a global haul of $616.7 million, Superman currently ranks as the 8th highest-grossing title of 2025 (as per Box Office Mojo). So, naturally, all eyes are now on the next DCU entry – Supergirl, led by House of the Dragon star Milly Alcock. Now, the big question is: To become a successful theatrical venture, Supergirl would need to perform about as impressively as its predecessor. Before it can begin to turn a profit at the box office, the film must first reach its break-even point. Let’s first take a look at the film’s estimated budget and how it compares to the Superman reboot. Milly Alcock on the set of the #Supergirl movie! pic.twitter.com/nNOpFE2owa …

From Silicon Valley to sovereign stacks: The global AI power shift | Technology News

Just as there can be no single human being without bias and context, there probably can never be an Artificial Intelligence (AI) model that keeps everyone content. Because challenges remain in ensuring fair representation in AI training data and balancing government involvement. As these developments unfold, the future of global technology governance will depend on collaboration, innovation, and a commitment to inclusivity across linguistic and cultural boundaries. As per The Algorithm, at RightsCon, a digital rights conference held in Taiwan, civil society organizations from around the world, including the US, discussed the loss of US government funding for global digital rights work. Discussions included observations that American big tech companies, which have users far beyond US borders, seem to be shifting in willingness to engage with and invest in smaller user bases, particularly non-English-speaking communities. So much so, that policymakers and business leaders in Europe are reconsidering their reliance on US-based tech, giving rise to a new interest in developing homegrown alternatives, particularly for AI.

NASA Stacks Artemis 2 Second Stage While the Future of SLS Remains Uncertain

Published by Webster

NASA’s Artemis 2 mission has reached a major milestone as the second stage that powers the Artemis 2 rocket, the Interim Cryogenic Propulsion Stage (ICPS), has been stacked. Kennedy Space Centre in Florida’s technicians mounted the ICPS on top of the SLS rocket inside the Vehicle Assembly Building on May 1. Driven by its upper stage, NASA’s Orion spacecraft and four-person crew—three NASA astronauts and one Canadian—out of Earth orbit will travel a free-return path around the moon, therefore allowing NASA’s return to deep space exploration. NASA Advances Artemis 2 Moon Mission as Future of SLS and Orion Faces Uncertainty As per NASA’s announcement, the ICPS arrived at the VAB last month and was hoisted into position inside the rocket stage adapter. The stage is critical for completing the crew’s journey past low Earth orbit during the 10-day Artemis 2 mission.
