Aquaman 2 Delay Saves The Movie By Avoiding Its Biggest Competition

Aquaman 2 Delay Saves The Movie By Avoiding Its Biggest Competition
Warner Bros. has delayed Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, and this move saved the movie from some massive competition. The film was originally set to be released on December 16, 2022, the same day as another tent-pole blockbuster: Avatar 2. The delay of Aquaman 2 may help it significantly, as it may not have fared well against the sequel to one of the highest-grossing films of all time.

Aquaman 2 is a sequel to the 2018 film, and it follows the titular superhero as he attempts to save the kingdom of Atlantis. Although not much is known about the highly-anticipated sequel, most of the cast members are currently set to return. After this delay, though, viewers will have to wait a little longer before the Atlantean hero once again graces the big screen.

Aquaman's box office success was a surprise to many when the original came out. The film was released after a string of box office failures for DC, such as Justice League, which makes its success even more notable. However, beating Avatar 2 is a major feat for any film, and some worry that Aquaman 2 may not have been up to the task. The 2023 slot that Aquaman 2 is now filling is a much safer time for the film. Although Avatar 2 was most likely not the reason for Aquaman 2's delay, the movie is sure to pay off in the long run

Apple launches new iPhone SE for 2022!

Apple launches new iPhone SE for 2022!
Apple announced a new third-gen iPhone SE model tonight at its Peek Performance spring event. The eagerly awaited budget smartphone comes almost two years after its predecessor, the popular second-gen iPhone SE which launched in April 2020.

In this article we reveal everything you need to know about the iPhone SE 3, from its release date, pricing and colour finishes to tech specs and design.

When will the new iPhone SE launch?
The new iPhone SE was announced tonight, 8 March 2022, but you'll have to wait a few more days to get your hands on the device.

SE pre-orders will begin on Apple's website on Friday 11 March, and the device will hit shops on 18 March.

iPhone SE (2022) pricing
Prices for the new SE start at £419 in the UK, and $429 in the US. As usual, prices vary according to your storage requirements, with 64GB, 128GB and 256GB capacities to choose from:

64GB: £419/$429
128GB: £469/$479
256GB: £569/$579

These are solid mid-market prices that bring some of Apple's premium features and components within reach of the average budget. But we can't help feeling slightly disappointed. Ahead of the event rumours suggested that Apple might finally tackle the truly budget end of the market: there was talk of a sub-$300 iPhone SE to rival the cheapest Android phones.

Stranger Things director and executive producer Shawn Levy is now opening up about the same and talking about ending it on season 5. The director says that as a team they never wanted the show to burn out or reach a point where things look forced. Read on to know everything you should know about the same.

How Clifton Collins Jr. Paid Tribute to Beloved Hollywood Manager Chris Huvane at Spirit Awards

How Clifton Collins Jr. Paid Tribute to Beloved Hollywood Manager Chris Huvane at Spirit Awards

Clifton Collins Jr. walked the blue carpet at Sunday’s Spirit Awards and was keen to talk about his critically acclaimed performance in Clint Bentley’s Jockey. The film casts the veteran actor as an aging jockey in search of one final championship only to see his life upended by a new rider who arrives on the scene claiming to be his son.
He earned a Spirit Award nomination for best male lead, and while the trophy in his category went to Red Rocket star Simon Rex, Collins Jr. said being invited to the dance “is all you want” as an actor. “To be nominated by your peers, it’s the greatest acceptance and validation,” explained the 51-year-old. “This is badass. You hope to finish a film and that it turns out likable enough to get recognized, and then when people have the same passion for it that you put into it — that’s the win, right? The win is you’re sharing the gift and touching people’s hearts.”



Speaking of badass, Collins Jr. stepped out in a pair of well-worn combat boots, and he told The Hollywood Reporter that he’s had them in his possession more than 20 years after lifting them from boot camp training for Joel Schumacher’s Tigerland. It’s the second time he’s worn them in the last week, and that’s not a coincidence. “I wore them to the memorial, and I’m wearing them today — for Huvane,” he explained, referencing Chris Huvane.

The beloved Hollywood manager passed away last month, and his life was celebrated last Thursday during an emotional memorial service at the Academy Museum. His brother, CAA’s Kevin Huvane, spoke as part of a program attended by stars Margot Robbie, Zach Braff, Kevin Zegers and Tory Kittles, among others. After the service — filled with tears and set against a backdrop that featured a collection of Chris’s favorite sneakers — members of his inner circle broke off for drinks to keep the tributes and love flowing.

Apple iPhone SE 2022 vs iPhone SE 2020: Price difference

Apple’s website already has trade-in options for the iPhone SE, and it will start at Rs 34,900 if you have an older phone to exchange. The deal will be better if this older device is an iPhone. Apple iPhone SE (2022) is open for pre-orders from March 11 and goes on sale on March 18.

The older iPhone SE launched in three colours: black, white and (PRODUCT)RED. This year’s iPhone has slightly different colours compared to the previous version as we’ve highlighted above.

The older iPhone SE had an aerospace-grade aluminium and glass body with an all-black front, and while this continues on the iPhone SE 2022, there are subtle changes. Apple says the glass on the front and back is the toughest they have used to date. This is the same glass as seen on the back of the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 so it should ensure better durability. The new iPhone SE continues with the IP67 dust and water resistance rating.

HP Omen 16 (AMD) gaming laptop review: Is it time to upgrade?

For the longest time, I have looked at gaming laptops as non-traditional notebooks aimed at a niche set of users. But during Covid-19, the gaming laptop market has emerged as a promising category with many brands launching gaming notebooks at different price points so as to appeal to a wider user base. HP’s latest Omen 16 falls in the same bracket and comes with a Ryzen 7 5800H processor, an Nvidia RTX 3050 Ti graphics chip, 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage at a price tag of Rs 109,999. But does the AMD version of the Omen 16 impress with a set of specs under the hood? Here is my review of the HP Omen 16.

Ashneer Grover: Bitter BharatPe feud worries India's booming start-ups

Ashneer Grover: Bitter BharatPe feud worries India's booming start-ups

The resignation of a high-profile Indian entrepreneur from the company he co-founded has led to worry in the country's booming start-up sector.

Ashneer Grover, founder of at least two unicorns - tech start-ups valued at over $1bn - resigned last week as managing director of BharatPe, one of India's most prominent fintech companies, after a public fallout with the board of the company he founded.

Mr Grover's abrasive behaviour as a judge on Shark Tank India - the Indian version of the reality show where aspiring entrepreneurs pitch their ideas to a panel of investors - had made him a talking point since December.

But in January, he came under intense media scrutiny after a leaked phone conversation led to allegations that he had abused a bank employee for failing to secure funds so he could invest in the public share sale of beauty start-up Nykaa.


Since then, BharatPe's board has accused him of misappropriating funds and siphoning off company money to pay for a "lavish lifestyle" - charges Mr Grover has denied.


In his scathing resignation letter, he accused the company's investors of making him the "villain of the piece".

"You treat us founders as slaves - pushing us to build multi-billion-dollar businesses and cutting us down at will," Mr Grover said in his letter.

The BBC spoke to corporate experts, who said Mr Grover's case - where there are allegations of fraud - is an aberration in India's start-up ecosystem. But it's only the latest in a series of ugly public spats involving the country's start-up entrepreneurs and investors.

A few years ago, realty search portal Housing.com's Rahul Yadav famously told his board that they weren't "intellectually capable" of sensible discussion. Since then, big start-ups such as Ola and Flipkart have seen founders battle investors for control.
