Manmohan slams govt for economic slowdown

The country is in the midst of a prolonged slowdown, former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said as he held the "all-around mismanagement" by the Modi government responsible for the ongoing economic crisis in the country. "The country has the potential to grow at a much faster rate. Reach out to all sane voices to steer the economy out of this man-made crisis," he said. from Times of India https://ift.tt/2zRFR7T

Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker Trailer May Hint That Rey’s Now A Jedi Master

If comments last year from John Boyega are anything to go by, then the upcoming Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker should feature a one-year time-jump from the events of The Last Jedi . If so, then we can expect the remaining members of the Resistance to have undergone a few changes by the time we see them next, and according to a new theory from ScreenRant, the young Rey may have even used the time between episodes to graduate to the status of Jedi Master. The theory stems largely from a single shot from the recent Rise of Skywalker trailer in which the heroine is seen training in a forest. As Rey reaches to catch her lightsaber, you’ll notice that she’s wearing a red sash on her left hand. Now, for all we know, it’s quite possible that this accessory is purely decorative. Then again, it’s perhaps worth noting that a red sash is also used in real world “lightsaber” training academies as a symbol of mastery in the use of weapons. You therefore have to wonder if J.J.

Joker Received An 8 Minute Standing Ovation At Venice Film Festival

The buzz surrounding  Joker is already pointing to it being one of the most imaginative comic book movies ever seen, as well as a dark exploration of the character. This reception was boosted today by an eight-minute standing ovation for the pic’s premiere at the Venice Film Festival, with stars Joaquin Phoenix and Zazie Beetz, and director Todd Phillips, on hand to answer questions at the event. Speaking about his ambitions for  Joker , Phillips had the following to say to the crowd: “Why can’t you do a genre comic-book film like that? We thought this could be an exciting approach to this genre. I’m not sure what it means for DC or Marvel … It was a hard movie for us to get made, to convince DC and the studio at first, but we thought we would keep pushing because we thought it would be special.” WB Releases Three New Joker Posters 1 of 4     Click to skip MORE FROM THE WEB Click to zoom  Although the di...

Dave Bautista Says He Would Do Anything For A Drax Solo Movie

Dave Bautista wants a Drax solo movie so much that he’d do anything to get it made. That includes giving up the role to a bigger star. The Guardians of the Galaxy actor responded to a fan on Twitter who mourned the lack of a Drax and Hulk team-up or a proper Drax vs. Thanos moment in Avengers: Endgame .  Bautista made clear that he also feels that there’s so much more to be explored with the Destroyer that he should be given his own movie. And it doesn’t even have to be him playing the lead role. #Drax is funny as hell! Hes also The Destroyer which is terrifying as hell. His wife and daughter were murdered! He mourns them and craves revenge!! NO! No movie there at all. I literally would step out of this fucking role to see that movie! Which most likely would get it made. https://t.co/dXUdkLObm6 — Dave Bautista (@DaveBautista) August 31, 2019 Avengers: Endgame Behind The Scenes Photos 1 of 23     Click to skip ...
