Frank Grillo on moving from Marvel to DC films - Boing Boing

Image
[embedded content] Frank Grillo is one of the most fascinating people working in Hollywood today, and it primarily comes down to how seemingly contradictory his existence has become. In short, Frank Grillo is a man of two worlds.  For starters, despite being in his late 50s, Grillo has the body of a teenage athlete, which is equally impressive and mind-boggling. However, when it comes to Grillo's career, things become even more intriguing.  To the general public, Grillo appeared in a handful of Marvel films and the Hulu flick  Boss Level . However, in the world of Chinese action films, he is one of the most iconic villains in cinema, thanks to his role in  Wolf Warrior 2 .  A few months ago, when James Gunn announced the production slate for his DC universe, eagle-eyed fans saw that Frank Grillo was going to jump ship from Marvel to DC. In the video linked above, Grillo sits down with the  Ins...

Jurassic Park' Cast: Where Are They Now? - Collider

Inspiring kids to become paleontologists for the last three decades, Jurassic Park originally premiered in 1993. A mix of action, adventure, and sci-fi, this film presents a very entertaining combination. The premise, now familiar to all, is that dinosaurs have been re-created from DNA found in a fossilized mosquito that sucked blood from a dinosaur. Scientists used this DNA mixed with frog DNA to create dinosaurs including "veggisauruses" and "meatasauruses". Problems first arise when a velociraptor kills someone in the opening scene. And right from this establishing scene, audiences knew they were in for a wild ride. Jurassic Park is directed by one of the most famous directors of all time, Steven Spielberg , with a larger-than-life score by one of the most famous composers, John Williams .

Unpopular Opinion: Aamir Khan's Rancho Is The Real Villain In 3 Idiots, Not Chatur - MensXP.com

Image
In the realm of iconic Bollywood movies, 3 Idiots stands tall as one of the movies that resonated with audiences worldwide. For Indian students, especially, it became a film they wanted to watch with their parents, so they could finally express how pressured they felt by an education system that stifled their creativity and dreams. For years, we've seen Chatur (Omi Vaidya) be vilified for his rote learning and adherence to the Indian education system's suffocating rules. However, amidst all the laughter and life lessons, I can't help but feel that Rancho (Aamir Khan) may not be the virtuous hero we all believed him to be, but rather the real villain of the story instead of Chatur. © Vinod Chopra Films One of the key instances that cast a shadow over Rancho's character is when he publicly humiliates Chatur, his studious and ambitious classmate.
