Sources tell Variety that the "Joker" sequel's trailer numbers and social engagement surpassed that of the first "Barbie" trailer to become Warner Bros.’ biggest launch in recent years. The release was no doubt bolstered by Lady Gaga's massive 150 million follower social media footprint. The trailer instantly became the #1 trending video on YouTube on premiere night and currently boasts 15.6 million views and counting on that platform alone, where it remains the #4 trending video nearly two days after its launch. The "Joker" sequel trailer also dominated X during its first 24 hours, with 10 terms related to the movie trending, including #JokerFolieADeux, Gaga, Harley, Harley Quinn, Joaquin Phoenix, Joker, Joker 2, Joker2, Lady Gaga and Todd Phillips. https://variety.com/2024/film/news/joker-2-trailer-views-first-24-hours-1235968367/

Do you think Mauricio Pochettino will be able to hold on to his job as Chelsea manager beyond the end of the season? The Argentine, 52, was given the target of achieving a league position that will qualify Chelsea for a European competition. Chelsea is currently 9th in the Premier League table but with at least two games in hand over the clubs above them. A seventh place finish - enough to qualify for either the Europa League or the Conference League - is still possible, though it will rely on the young squad performing consistently in the business end of the season - something that has alluded Poch so far. It should be noted that on his appointment, Poch said there are no excuses for not winning immediately, but he's now changed his tune and pleaded for patience. He also hasn't built a positive relationship with supporters and is frequently booed. There are rumours that a break clause in his contract would allow the club to sack him in the summer without paying compensation. He was also only offered a short 2+1 contract, which doesn't indicate Chelsea's owners and directors ever saw him as a long-term option. What say you, ATRL? Will he survive? Should he survive?

title. Was always curious about this: how many ppl do you generally message per day on average. I feel like my average is like 5-10 ppl per day. It varies tho, some days are just boring, some are more involved. But sometimes I see people in public who seem to text like 50+ people a day and are constantly on messages. This includes imessage/whatsapp / whatever your main form of comm is. So, thots?

Hello guys, so I often browse atrl while at work or in school and sometimes the avis displayed are simply inappropriate or awkward. Often times I have opened the site and I can feel someone behind me is SHOOK by some of the avis some of our users have lol. I dont care when I'm home but in public it can be really inappropriate. I'm wondering if other members have felt this way and would like to have some kind of setting where we can have avis be non visible temporarily or something like that.

Dan Lin, the streaming service's new film chief, wants to produce a more varied slate of movies to better appeal to the array of interests among subscribers. Back in, say, 2019, if a filmmaker signed a deal with Netflix, it meant that he or she would be well paid and receive complete creative freedom. Theatrical release? Not so much. Still, the paycheck and the latitude — and the potential to reach the streaming service's huge subscriber base — helped compensate for the lack of hoopla that comes when a traditional studio opens a film in multiplexes around the world. But those days are a thing of the past. Dan Lin arrived as Netflix's new film chief on April 1, and he has already started making changes. He laid off around 15 people in the creative film executive group, including one vice president and two directors. (Netflix's entire film department is around 150 people.) He reorganized his film department by genre rather than budget level and has indicated that Netflix is no longer only the home of expensive action flicks featuring big movie stars, like "The Gray Man" with Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans or "Red Notice" with Ryan Reynolds, Gal Gadot and Dwayne Johnson. Rather, Mr. Lin's mandate is to improve the quality of the movies and produce a wider spectrum of films — at different budget levels — the better to appeal to the varied interests of Netflix's 260 million subscribers. He will also be changing the formulas for how talent is paid, meaning no more enormous upfront deals. In other words, Netflix's age of austerity is well underway. The company declined to comment for this article. Now that Netflix has emerged as the dominant streaming platform, it no longer has to pay top dollar to lure auteur filmmakers like Martin Scorsese, Alfonso Cuarón and Bradley Cooper. It also helps that some of the big studios are again allowing their films to be shown on Netflix not long after they appear in theaters, providing more content to attract subscribers. The latest list of the 10 most-watched English-language films on the service featured six produced outside Netflix.

General thread for news relating to same-sex marriage and rights. Hopefully we have more positive news than negative news to share.

please don't drag me but a guy being a popgirl stan is such a turn-off, like you are automatically a sister for me am i perpetuating gender roles

So I came out of work pretty late at around 3am. And I was browsing Grindr and this empty profile messages me he asks me where I am because we were relatively near and I said the zone I am walking at that moment we exchange a few words and he talks about sharing pics. So I share a body pic and then he shares one as well, I am not interested and I politely reply I look for another kind of man. Well so he keeps insisting, he asks me if I'm at the river bed or the long walk full of vegetation near it. I don't replay and he keeps messaging me ominous things like he is getting closer and that he is going to catch me so I end up blocking him Turns out I suddenly feel nervous and uncomfortable so I decide to turn around and go back to my home so as I do that I see a glimpse of a shadow in the bushes far away, clearly a man with a hood. You could easily see and feel that he was observing me and I get nervous and I shopt straight back hom crossing the road so I try to play it off as if I hadn't realised but I can clarly see that he is marching my step on the other side of the road and I get really nervous. He eventually passes me and crosses the roads and makes ir seem like he is going to the direction on the right side of the road, I end up losing him because of a wall so I keep walking (looking back and should have turned around and went the oposite direction but I wouldnt hava mattered because there was really only forward at that point. So I get as far as I can and I thought he disappeared but no he was behind some bushes waiting for me at certain distance. So I notice I have my show lace undone and I use a bench to tie it and I take the chance to survey what was behind me and I could see him preying behind the bushes. I continue forward and I can see him walk behind him, like the guy wasnt even being subtle. I almost cried, I picked up the pace as soon as I saw some people in the distance. I didnt even want to turn around more but I did and I think I lost him, I checked on the other side on the vegetation forest side of the rode and couldnt see him and more passerbyes appeared so I felt I was safe, still I did a BIG diversion just in case he would actually find where I live This has actually been one of the scariest moments of my life, I feel dumb, but I actually teared up when I got safe home

What's your type and what type do you actually attract ? Do they overlap or are you struggling ?

What do you think? Is it okay or too much to pay for two music platforms? And what platforms do you use?

As we stand on the cusp of unprecedented economic and climate challenges, whether it's morally acceptable to bring children into today's world becomes increasingly complex. Just a reminder, this is NOT a personal attack on anyone: I simply encourage everyone to share their opinions. Every viewpoint is valid, and I'm glad if you are planning to have children or already have children. What do you think? Discuss and keep it cute!

Hello fellow ATRL members! I'm currently in my final year of university studying Media and Communications. As part of my final year I need to do a dissertation. This is basically a 12,000 word research report on a topic related to my field of study. I've chosen to do mine on fan loyalty and artist image between two of the biggest names in Pop music in recent years – Beyoncé and Taylor Swift. Both are major Pop icons with hyperactive fanbases, which makes them suitable for my research. As part of my research I've chosen to do a questionnaire. This will allow me to get a better understanding of the dynamics between each artist and their respective fanbase. The majority of the questions are multiple choice, with a few open-ended as well. It should only really take 5 minutes to complete. Your response will be completely anonymous, and no personal information will be collected. Please note that you must be 18+ to participate. I would be so eternally grateful if you could take the time to complete this, as it will be very beneficial to my research! Thank you! You can find the questionnaire here: https://forms.gle/Ha87hFRNA4HRweKZ7
