Los Angeles (AFP) - "The Garfield Movie" triumphed at the North American box office in its second week of release, as "Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga' faded to third place, industry estimates showed Sunday. "Garfield" and "Furiosa" had battled for the top spot during the long Memorial Day weekend, and ultimately, the "Mad Max" prequel starring Anya Taylor-Joy prevailed. But this week, Sony's animated reboot about the lazy cat who loves lasagna, starring Chris Pratt ("Guardians of the Galaxy") as the orange feline, was expected to win with $14 million in ticket sales, Exhibitor Relations said.

Los Angeles (AFP) - Enedina Canul wanted to play softball, but the 47-year-old didn't have a bat -- and that was the least of her problems.

The documentary focuses on Canul and the softball team she formed in her small, Indigenous hamlet -- and their push against the stifling machismo culture that saw their participat...

2024 is increasingly looking like box office carnage, especially compared to last year’s Barbenheimer double whammy. The latest sign that Hollywood is in for a rough ride this year is the Mad Max: Fury Road prequel Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, which after its premiere in Cannes and its release in theatres has fallen below expectations for its opening weekend. Despite broadly positive reviews – even if we weren’t too keen on it, for reasons mentioned later – one of the most anticipated films of the year has struggled to resonate with audiences. Worse, it opened in time for Memorial Day in the US, a...

Lana Del Rey recently shared that she wrote a song for a James Bond film, and she was rejected by the 007 producers. Speaking while attending the Ivor Novello Awards in London, the singer admitted that one of her tracks, ‘24’, from her 2015 album ‘Honeymoon’, was written for the fourth Bond film Spectre.
