Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin It was 46 years ago Paul McCartney answered his critics and John Lennon, who claimed he often wrote songs that were too corny and sentimental, with the No 1 smash, "Silly Love Songs." In the song's opening stanza, McCartney sings, “You’d think that people would have had enough of silly love songs/I look around me and I see it isn’t so/Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs/And what’s wrong with that?/I’d like to know/’Cause here I go again.” Though McCartney wrote the song somewhat tongue in cheek, like so many geniuses, he turned out to be stunningly prophetic. Because watching McCartney Friday night at L.A.'s Sofi Stadium it was abundantly clear how much the world still needs his silly love songs. The eternal optimism of McCartney, at least publicly, is the ninth wonder of the world. Most perceptive people look at the world, and even before the horrific racially motivated shootings that happened … [Read more...] about Why The Eternal Optimism Of Paul McCartney Never Goes Out Of Style

Hungary’s new president condemns Putin’s ‘aggression’, plans trip to Warsaw
BUDAPEST (Reuters) - Hungary's President Katalin Novak at her inauguration ceremony on Saturday condemned Russia's invasion of Ukraine and said her first trip would take her to Poland, in an apparent gesture to mend relations with Warsaw. Hungary's rejection of sending weapons shipments to neighbouring Ukraine and its opposition to a planned European Union embargo on Russian oil imports has weighed on relations between Budapest and Warsaw, whose two nationalist governments have been long-time allies in the EU. Novak, a former Fidesz party lawmaker and ally of Prime Minister Viktor Orban, was elected to the largely ceremonial post of president in March, shortly before Orban won another landslide victory in elections on April 3. Hungary's first woman president, Novak has served as deputy chair of Fidesz and was family affairs minister in Orban's previous government. "On Tuesday, 17 May, I am travelling to Warsaw to meet the President of the Polish people. Mr. President, dear … [Read more...] about Hungary’s new president condemns Putin’s ‘aggression’, plans trip to Warsaw
Box Office: ‘Doctor Strange 2’ Joins $100 Million Losers Club But Nears $700 Million Worldwide
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness dropped a harsh 67.3% in its second weekend, topping the domestic box office with $61 million for a new $291.9 million ten-day cume. The raw grosses are still big, but the drop isn’t exactly a ringing endorsement despite a near-total lack of competition. There was next-to-no newbie competition, all due respect to Firestarter , and the film still took the third-biggest drop ever for a Marvel Cinematic Universe flick (no, Morbius is not an MCU release) behind Black Widow and Spider-Man: No Way Home (which had its second Friday fall on Christmas Eve). Its 67.3% drop is on par with Man of Steel (-67.9% after a $128 million debut) and Fantastic Four (-68.2% after a $25.7 million debut). Yes, it joined the $100 million losers club, earning $126 million less between weekend one and weekend two. Again, the Sam Raimi-directed and Michael Waldron-penned MCU sequel has still … [Read more...] about Box Office: ‘Doctor Strange 2’ Joins $100 Million Losers Club But Nears $700 Million Worldwide
