Dwayne Johnson Just Sealed the Fate of Black Adam

While talking about his part in the new sports movie The Smashing Machine, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson explained that his wrestling career prepared him for this role. He said, “Definitely. Being a villain in wrestling was great practice, almost like how The Rock eventually became an anti-hero. I really enjoyed making Black Adam and building those characters, and introducing new ones to that world.”

The Best Action Thriller You’ve Never Heard of Is Hailed “Pure Carnage” as It Unleashes First Footage

The film, titled Ikatan Darah (also known as Blood Ties), is a new production from Iko Uwais, the star of The Raid, through his company, Uwais Pictures.

Ether funds followed suit, while solana’s ascent was as steady as Jeeves polishing a monocle.

Solana Does the Unthinkable: Out-Ethereums Ethereum While the Market Goes Full “Oops!” 🚀💸

Solana leads in pp revenue (that’s “protocol profit,” not the other thing, though we won’t judge if you snickered). Ethereum, which once strutted around like it owned the joint (and briefly did, during Q1 2024 when it made more than Robinhood, Etsy, and your Aunt Karen’s candle business combined), now sulks in the corner with a “How did I get here?” vibe.

Pokemon’s Two-Game Tradition Started As A Way To One-Up Mario

Tajiri jokingly suggested that the only way to outsell Mario Kart would be to sell two copies of Pokémon to every customer. Miyamoto explained that this playful challenge inspired the release of the first Pokémon games as both Pokémon Blue and Pokémon Red – a practice that has continued with most of the main series games ever since.
