The Diplomat Box Office Day 3 Early Estimates! ( Photo Credit – YouTube )

It has been quite a disappointing first weekend for The Diplomat, starring John Abraham. The political thriller opened better than expected, but the graph fell flat soon after. Despite the favorable word-of-mouth, There’s barely any considerable growth on day 3. Scroll below for the early trends on Sunday!

An underwhelming first weekend

Shivam Nair’s directorial was depended on word-of-mouth, so when the box office collections were almost double of the predictions on the opening day, huge hopes were raised. After Holi on Friday, it should have ideally shown another jump on Saturday and growth further on Sunday. However, that is not the case.

As per early trends, The Diplomat earned around 4.50-5 crores on day 3. That’s barely any growth compared to the 4.68 crores minted the previous day. The weekend will now conclude somewhere around 13.21-13.71 crores.

Trending Mufasa:...

The Sci-fi anime of the year has been decided as Kaiju No. 8, being one of the few sci-fi type anime to have come out and become popular. It cannot be said that Kaiju No. 8 winning the award at the 11th Anime Trending Awards was unexpected.

The only problem is that after Cyberpunk: Edgerunners was released, it set a high standard for what an anime adaptation should be like, and after that, Kaiju No. 8 feels underserving of being the best ‘sci-fi anime’ this year.

Good, but just not good enough

There are many genres of anime that are released every year and in recent times, the sci-fi genre is getting more diverse. With most authors mixing sci-fi with other magical or mystical tropes, it is getting harder to separate the anime into specific genres.

Kafka’s Physical Appearance in Kaiju No. 8...

For decades, Tom Cruise has been the ultimate Hollywood daredevil—jumping off cliffs in Mission: Impossible and pulling off jaw-dropping stunts at the box office. Well, this seems to be the reason why studios have been vying for his attention like fans at red-carpet events. Take for example when Warner Bros. went out of their way to thank Cruise, even when he vowed his loyalty to Paramount.

Now surprisingly, that gratitude call quickly turned into a secret meeting, which led to a shiny new deal. Meanwhile, Paramount, his longtime Hollywood home, wasn’t in the loop of that meeting where Tom Cruise turned Warner Bros. into his new (non-exclusive) playground. But here’s the twist—he’s not ditching Paramount just yet. Talk about Mission: Diplomatic!

Warner Bros’ gratitude towards Tom Cruise despite his loyalty to Paramount

Perhaps since the dawn...

Kaiju No. 8 was a long-anticipated anime back in the Spring 2024 season. Kafka Hibino’s underdog story of following his dreams is inspiring, humorous, and frightening. Terrible monsters called Kaiju plague Japan, and Kafka hates them all until he becomes one. Season 1 was a wild ride as Kafka joined the Jakdf as a half-other Kaiju monster hiding in plain sight, ending with a bang as Kafka faced Isao Shinomiya in mortal combat to prove his worth.

Until the next season of Kaiju No. 8 arrives, anime audiences are looking for something to slake their thirst for similar tales. Stories about plucky underdogs and giant monsters aren’t hard to come by in anime, but there are certainly some stories that more accurately align with Kaiju No. 8’s specific brand of shonen. Whether fans are eager for the Kaiju fights or the mixture of genres, there are plenty of Kaiju No. 8...

Kate Gosselin, formerly on Kate Plus 8, Jon and Kate Plus 8, and Kate + Date on TLC used to be a nurse, and she recently renewed her license. Does that mean the former reality TV star has finally gone back to nursing? Read on for more details to find out.

Jon Told Kate To Get A Job

In July last year, speaking with Domenik Nati, Jon Gosselin explained that when he left TLC, he got himself a job. At the time, he hinted that Kate Gosselin should do the same thing. So far, it doesn’t seem like that happened. That doesn’t mean there weren’t rumors though, and critics of Kate hated the idea that she might be nursing.

Julio Medem, one of Spain’s most distinctive cinematic voices, returns to the spotlight at Berlin’s European Film Market with “8,” an ambitious and formally daring film that spans 90 years of Spanish history through the intertwined lives of Octavio and Adela.

Javier Rey (“Cocaine Coast”) stars as Octavio, while Ana Rujas, acclaimed for her role in Los Javis’ “La Mesías,” plays Adela. Produced by Spain’s Morena Films, behind box office hits “Cell 211” and “Champions,” with Barbazul la película Aie, Eidan Produce and Quexito Films, the feature is sold by Latido Films.

“I proposed to tell the story of Octavio and Adela’s 90 years in eight chapters, and that each one would be a sequence shot, so that the time spent in each would be ‘a while’,” Medem told Variety. The director’s approach is rooted in the idea that “the only one who has a complete and...

Anthony Mackie ignored the comic books in preparation for his role in 'Captain America: Brave New World'.The 46-year-old actor makes his debut as the titular superhero in the new Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film and explained that he stuck strictly to the script rather than any comic book stories.Anthony told Collider: "I literally just focused on the script. I mean, these, these stories are so interesting because they don't do the comic books page by page by page."They use the comic books as a blueprint or outline. So you can have three or four different comic books in one movie. So I stayed away from the comic books and just utilised the script and the story and the background that we've created of Sam Wilson to develop him into the Captain America he is in the movie."The '8 Mile' actor explained that he feels...

Jonah Johnston from 7 Little Johnstons on TLC will be 25 years old in 2025, and fans are getting snarky because they think Trent and Amber Johnston still treat him like a child. The criticism came after the Galantines Day episode last week.

Trent & Amber Treat Their Son Like A Child

It’s not the first time that TLC fans slammed Johah in Season 15 of the reality TV show. Additionally, some older episodes bring criticism, and an old scene from 2022 got trashed when he moved home after his Delta 8 issue. Viewers were shocked that he didn’t give his sisters any privacy.

Trent and Amber Johnston treat their son like a child as far as TLC fans are concerned. While Jonah Johnston is their child, he’s a grown adult. Admittedly, he ran into some problems when he used Delta 8. But, he shouldn’t be babied by his parents, seems to be the general consensus.

Last year, the official live-action stage adaptation of Studio Ghibli's Spirited Away made its international debut at the London Coliseum Theatre. Recently, the production took home a major prize at the UK-based theater competition, WhatsOnStage, officially cementing a special place in entertainment history.

Per Oricon, Spirited Away: Live on Stage was gifted the title of "Best New Play" at the 25th annual Whatsonstage awards, which was held on Feb. 9, 2025. Developed by John Caird of the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC), Spirited Away's stage adaptation recreates the original film's story with grandiose set pieces, innovative puppetry techniques and a live orchestral performance of Joe Hisaishi's famous score. The show's London run, which lasted from April 30, 2024, to August 24, 2024, was enormously successful. According to Oricon, Spirited Away sold out all 2,300 seats each night, totaling over 300,000 spectators over the course of its four-month run.

Every Soul Reaper Captain in Bleach wields a Zanpakutō, and they can all use Bankai. A handful of Lieutenants have also achieved Bankai over the course of the series. The Thousand-Year Blood War Arc introduced several never-before-seen Bankai, and they were all highly effective in battle. Several notable Soul Reapers did not reveal their Bankai during the conflict.

Most of these Soul Reapers are former Captains, and several of them were members of Squad Zero, who were tasked with protecting the Soul King. Some of these Soul Reapers could not use Bankai because of a seal or other circumstances, and one Soul Reaper, in particular, died before they could reveal it. Some Soul Reapers simply decided never to use Bankai, because the situation was not ideal, or because they relied on other skills.

Rob appeared on Survivor: Marquesas, eventually landing an invite to Survivor 8, where he finished as the runner-up to future wife Amber Brkich.

That All-Star appearance (Survivor 8) was controversial as Rob burned bridges with friends but found the love of his life.

He would later appear on Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, coming up short during his third appearance. But that wasn’t it for Boston Rob.

Rob won Survivor: Redemption Island (Season 22), cementing his legacy in the game and earning another invite to the all-winners season (Survivor 40).

Z Cam has gained significant recognition in the world of action cinematography, earning its place as a go-to camera for big-budget Hollywood productions such as Mission: Impossible 7 & 8. Known for its compact form factor, affordability, and impressive performance, Z Cam has become synonymous with high-octane action sequences, including drone footage, real-life train crashes, and underwater shots.

Director Rian Johnson helmed the second installment of the Star Wars sequel trilogy, which was universally polarizing and remains the most disliked entry in the epic space opera franchise. Johnson’s The Last Jedi was a followup to the J.J. Abrams-directed The Force Awakens, which did much of the heavy lifting to relaunch the Skywalker saga for a new generation of audience.

However, to make his much-anticipated follow-up work, Johnson had to ask Abrams for a huge favor. Johnson requested Abrams make one very important change to the first installment so that he could have all the characters in the right place for his story to pick up. In hindsight, the change proved to be essential for Johnson’s film which would’ve otherwise been very different.

There are eight companion characters in Baldur's Gate 3, which players can romance. Several NPCs have their own romance scenes, but players are unable to form relationships with them in the same way they can with their companions. While players will likely know that pursuing Mizora or Harleep will prompt certain reactions within the companions, romancing one main character can have dire consequences for another.

Characters will react accordingly if the player treats them poorly in a relationship; in some instances, they can even leave the party. However, players can seemingly do everything right, having secured the "good" endings for each of their companions, yet will still lose out on seeing one of them in the epilogue. Players will need to think carefully about certain choices if they don't have to doom one of their party members.

Originally an action spinoff of developer Koei’s turn-based strategy Romance of the Three Kingdom games based on the Chinese novel of the same name, the Dynasty Warriors series would establish its own genre of action, musou, in which a single character faces masses of opponents. Dynasty Warriors: Origins is the first mainline entry since 2018’s disappointing Dynasty Warriors 9 and seeks to return to the franchise’s roots, adapting the first half of the original Romance of the Three Kingdoms novel. Here, the player takes the role of an amnesic lone wanderer who becomes pivotal in the war for the kingdoms fighting for control of China, while trying to rediscover his identity and reconnect with history.

As a musou game, Origins is a spectacular technical achievement that takes full advantage of modern hardware to present amazing large-scale feudal battles from a boots-on-the-ground perspective. The Warriors series, including its spinoffs (from...

The historic drama series Outlander is currently airing its seventh season, with the finale set to air this week. The show has been one of the best and most consistently rated TV series in the past few years and the latest season has proved that it has passionate people behind it. The series is set to end with season 8 next year.

Outlander’s consistently high ratings have set it apart from other shows of the genre that had the hype but ultimately fizzled out. One of the biggest shows that had a terrible and legacy-ruining ending was HBO’s Game of Thrones, which also had a period fantasy setting and had incredible ratings in the initial seasons.

According to Anime News Network, Ai and her talent agency, Raccoon Dog, announced her Ptsd diagnosis on Dec. 30, 2024. In a statement released on X (formerly Twitter), Ai revealed that she was diagnosed with Ptsd “a few months ago” and will now focus on her recovery at the suggestion of her doctor. This means Ai will limit her work activities starting in January 2025.

As Outlander's seventh season nears its finale on January 25, 2025, it will be interesting to see how the Frasers survive the American Revolution. What's less interesting is the ridiculous obsession that Roger MacKenzie (Richard Rankin) has with time travel and the annoying conversations he continues to pester the others about, especially in Season 7, Episode 9, "Unfinished Business."

While it makes sense that Roger would be concerned about his son Jemmy (Matthew Adair), the silly existential queries become too much to bear. Not only does Roger anger his friends and allies, but his illogical infatuation with all things time travel is most obnoxious for fans who've dealt with the show's paradoxical time shifts for years and somehow understand its machinations better than he does. Then again, not much about the Outlander makes much temporal sense anyway.

Michael Fassbender's David might not be in Alien: Romulus, but the film's android characters made his fate more confusing. Fassbender starred in Ridley Scott's two Alien prequels, Prometheus and Alien: Covenant, as the synthetic/android known as David 8. He was at the center of the planned trilogy, but the cancelation of the third installment meant his story was never concluded. This left a major question heading into Alien: Romulus regarding what happened to David in the franchise. There was even some hope Fede lvarez's movie would share some new information on his fate and place in the franchise.

Instead of bringing Fassbender back as David or another model of the android, like how Alien: Covenant also included Walter, Alien: Romulus included two other androids. David Jonnson's Andy was introduced as a new synthetic who acted as Rain's brother and protector. Then, there was Rook, built to...

Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster saw the original game in the series return to modern platforms 18 years after its initial release, and eight years after its previous HD remaster. Upon its original release back in 2006, Capcom's title was used to showcase the rendering power of the Xbox 360 with hundreds of zombies appearing on-screen at once. This was achieved by using the Dawn of the Dead-esque premise of survivors trapped in a shopping mall to ensure it was always a busy environment, as players were given the freedom to use a variety of items from different stores to defeat these hordes of the undead, from sporting goods to electric guitars and children's toys, alongside more traditional weapons.
