Has DC film universe finally figured it out?

Image
After Justice League's failure, there was a considerable shake-up at DC Films by Warner Bros. There have been a few announcements since then that augur well for the future of films based on DC Comics. We may see a resurgence of DC film universe. When DC Extended Universe was created, Warner Bros sought Christopher Nolan’s help in building it. But Nolan refused to because of one simple reason: he abhors CGI and uses it only when absolutely necessary. And while you can make Batman films with purely practical effects, Superman and Wonder Woman have godlike powers and it would be impossible to portray them in a realistic manner without the use of computer-aided visual effects. Warners then, oddly enough, decided to fall back on Zack Snyder, whose adaptations of graphic novels 300 and Watchmen had proved polarising. The result was a stream of continuous failures. Advertisement Man of Steel, the first DCEU film, also similarly divided critics. The follow-ups Batman v Super...

DNA test of Actress Amy Jackson reveals shocking results

Image
Amy Jackson recently took a DNA ancestry test, the results of which are awaited. As she didn’t know her dad’s side of the family too well, the actress decided to opt for the Y chromosome test (see box). Amy reasons, “Whenever I travelled, people always asked me where I was from. When I replied, ‘England’, they would ask, ‘Okay, but what are your roots? You don’t look fully English!’ My family is the most important thing to me, and we’re very close, but the history of my kin is quite vague. So, I took it upon myself to try and make some sense of it. My dad’s family history is almost impossible to figure out.” Explaining further, she tells us, “We know that my father’s grandma was Portuguese and she landed up on the Isle of Man (where she was born) in the early 1900s. She settled there and started a new life but all of us are unsure about what happened before that.” Amy then learnt that she could find more details through the DNA ancestry test. Ask her about the whole process a...
