Impressive
Barbie has broken the US$1bn mark since its debut more than two weeks ago, with director Greta Gerwig breaking a record for female directors previously held by Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins.
Warner Bros Pictures announced on Sunday that the movie took in $459m from North American theatres and another $572.1m overseas over the weekend, for a total of $1.0315bn (A$1.56bn, £800m). The figure was confirmed by media analytics firm Comscore.
“As distribution chiefs, we’re not often rendered speechless by a film’s performance, but Barbillion has blown even our most optimistic predictions out of the water,” said Jeff Goldstein and Andrew Cripps, who oversee domestic and international distribution for the studio, in a joint statement.
The Margot Robbie-led and produced film has been comfortably seated in first place for three weeks and it’s hardly finished yet. It crossed $400m in the US and $500m internationally faster than any other movie at the studio, including the Harry Potter films.
Directed by Oscar-nominated writer and director Gerwig and starring Robbie and Ryan Gosling as Barbie and Ken, the movie sends the famous toy doll on an adventure into the real world.
Barbie ticket sales now rank second this year to The Super Mario Bros, which raked in a total of $1.357bn at the box office.
In modern box office history, just 53 movies have made over $1bn, not accounting for inflation, and Barbie is now the biggest to be directed by one woman, supplanting Wonder Woman’s $821.8m global total. Three movies that were co-directed by women are still ahead of Barbie, including Frozen ($1.3bn) and Frozen 2 ($1.45bn), both co-directed by Jennifer Lee, and Captain Marvel ($1.1 bn), co-directed by Anna Boden.
Barbie has passed Captain Marvel domestically with $459.4m (versus $426.8m), thereby claiming the North American record for live-action movies directed by women.

Painkiller (TV, Netflix).
Dramatisation of the Oxycontin epidemic.
Judging by the opening, it's going to be heavier going than the excellent Dopesick.

Fascinating show
Unknown: The Lost Pyramid
they took a piece of papyrus (over 4,000 years old) to the Egyptian Museum and the inside of the museum looked just as it did years ago when we were visiting (even after years of rioting) Egypt’s museums looted during riots - Al-Monitor: Independent, trusted coverage of the Middle East
Kin series 1 & 2
Irish/ Dublin drug running families go to war. Sort of similar to Love/ Hate but not as good (though there aint many series I think that match that).
John Boy from Love Hate stars in this as the Head of one of the drug families.
Watched series 1 and definitely worth a look - I'll say a 7.5/10
Download both series from the usual places
^ I enjoyed both series. Not the best but highly watchable and judging by the ending of series 2 a 3rd series should along in time
For those who've been watching "Billions", the final season (7) has just started to air, usual places for download. There will be 12 episodes in this season.
Billions is a good series. I didn’t enjoy it as much when Ax left but see he is back in the last season. Will be watching that.
Painkiller is as good as Dopesick.
Well worth a watch.
Heart of Stone (Netflix, movie, 2023).
Netflix picked this up in 2021 while it was still in production, presumably on the cheap because of the pandemic.
It's apparently their attempt at starting an MI: style franchise.
Not brilliant, but watchable if you don't take it too seriously.

^^ Gave Heart of Stone a go this afternoon. Can’t even get through to half way. What is supposed to be so wonderful about Gal Gadot? She just has no pizazz to me.
got a torrent link ?
I managed to make it through Silo season 1 , but it became a bit of a drag - will not watch series 2
tried dead lucky series - it was not so good - I think I just watched the first episode
travellers series - I tried to keep going , but had to stop - I think it is just a vehicle for some simp porn of the blonde white chick
Rooks series - I dunno - watched the first episode and I am not sure I want to go on with it
If you torture data for enough time , you can get it to say what you want.
"Shrinking", a 10 episode comedy offering from Apple. A recently widowed psychiatrist struggles with his diagnosis and treatment of his patients whilst dealing with his own grief and increasingly estranged teenage daughter. Doesn't sound funny, but it is. Good cast, not least of which Harrison Ford as the main man in the psychiatry practice.

A good download option:
