Go big or go cosmic: Marvel's RM340 Galactus popcorn bucket sets Guinness World Record (VIDEO)
LOS ANGELES, July 26 — A colossal US$80 (RM340) popcorn container shaped like Marvel's planet-devouring villain Galactus is offering a unique twist on movie snacks. During its unveiling in Los Angeles, the container drew excited fans to the TCL Chinese Theatre and set a Guinness World Record. The mammoth movie snack holder, tied to the upcoming Fantastic Four: First Steps film, measures 20 inches (51 cm) wide and 17.5 inches tall. It boasts a capacity of 341 ounces (10 litres) — enough to satisfy even Galactus' cosmic appetite. Lacey Noel, a tour guide at the TCL Chinese Theatre, presented the bucket to eager onlookers. 'It is US$80 and people are currently eating it up,' she said. The Galactus container isn't just about size. It features a metallic finish and piercing bright blue LED eyes, adding to its appeal as a display piece long after the popcorn is gone. Fans lined up at the theatre's concession stand, eager to get their hands on the limited-edition item. This record-breaking popcorn bucket represents more than just a novel way to serve cinema snacks. It's part of a broader strategy by movie studios and theatres to lure audiences back to the big screen with exclusive, tangible experiences that can't be replicated at home. Chris Banda, a fan who purchased the Galactus bucket, praised the initiative. 'I think these buckets are fantastic,' he said. 'I obviously wouldn't have got this if I didn't come to the theatres and I think it's designed very well and it's got a lot of popcorn, so cool.' — Reuters

'Lilo & Stitch' becomes Hollywood's first US$1bil movie of 2025
Stitch has become increasingly popular, ranking in the top 10 bestselling Disney franchises, alongside stalwarts like Mickey and Minnie Mouse, the princesses, Star Wars and Marvel. Photo: Handout Walt Disney Co.'s live-action adaptation Lilo & Stitch has now generated more than US$1bil in worldwide box office revenue, becoming the first US film of the year to do so. The movie, based on the 2002 animated film of the same name, made US$416.2mil in the United States and Canada and an additional US$584.8mil internationally. It is the highest-grossing Disney live-action film ever in Mexico, where it brought in US$67mil. "We knew there was a lot of love for Lilo & Stitch with audiences around the world, yet we never take that for granted," Disney Entertainment co-Chairman Alan Bergman said in a statement. "We're proud of how this new film has connected with people." The Burbank-based media and entertainment giant has already announced that a sequel to Lilo & Stitch is in development. The original animated movie was only a modest box-office performer at the time, bringing in US$273mil. Yet over time, Stitch has become increasingly popular, ranking in the top 10 bestselling Disney franchises, alongside stalwarts like Mickey and Minnie Mouse, the princesses, Star Wars and Marvel, Disney has said. Sales of Stitch-themed merchandise totaled about US$2.6bil last year. And before the new film was released, the Lilo & Stitch franchise, which includes animated series, TV films and direct-to-video movies, drove 546 million hours of global viewership on Disney+, with the original movie accounting for more than half of that. Bergman said in May that the popularity of the little blue alien "definitely" played a role in greenlighting the live-action film. The success of Lilo & Stitch comes as family-friendly movies have ruled the box office. The momentum began in April with Warner Bros. Pictures' A Minecraft Movie , which has now made US$955mil worldwide, and continued with Lilo & Stitch and Universal Pictures' live-action adaptation How To Train Your Dragon , which released in June and collected more than US$564mil globally. Globally, the biggest film of the year remains Ne Zha 2 , a Chinese animated juggernaut that grossed more than US$2bil in ticket sales, the vast majority of which came from its home country. – Los Angeles Times/Tribune News Service

Pro wrestling legend Hulk Hogan dies at 71 after cardiac arrest at Florida home
MIAMI, July 25 — Hulk Hogan, the 1980s icon of professional wrestling who helped propel the low-budget spectacle into the global spotlight and parlayed his prowess in the ring into pop culture stardom, died yesterday. He was 71. Hogan, whose real name was Terry Bollea, was pronounced dead at a Florida hospital after emergency personnel responded to a cardiac arrest call at his home in Clearwater, police said. The Hall of Fame talent — known for his towering 6′7″ (two-metre) physique, bandana and blond handlebar moustache — was ubiquitous during his heyday, acting in film and television, appearing in video games and promoting a range of products. He also courted his share of controversy, first when a sex tape featuring him leaked, and again when a recording of him using racist language, including a slur referring to Black Americans, resurfaced in 2015. In recent years, Hogan became an avid supporter of US President Donald Trump. 'One of pop culture's most recognisable figures, Hogan helped WWE achieve global recognition in the 1980s,' World Wrestling Entertainment said on social media. 'WWE extends its condolences to Hogan's family, friends, and fans.' Hogan's wrestling skills and magnetic personality as a heroic all-American in the ring transformed the sport into mainstream family entertainment, attracting millions of viewers and turning the league into a multi-billion-dollar empire. 'Hulk Has Been By My Side Since We Started In The Wrestling Business. An Incredible Athlete, Talent, Friend, And Father!' fellow Hall of Famer Ric Flair said on social media. 'R.I.P Hulkster, thank you for opening up doors for so many people in the business including myself,' said retired pro and Olympic champion Kurt Angle. From local gym to Hall of Fame Hogan was born on August 11, 1953 in the southern US state of Georgia to a construction worker father and a dance teacher mother. The family moved to Florida when he was a toddler. After dropping out of university, Hogan was spotted at his gym by local wrestlers and was quickly swept into competitions. His nickname came about in part because of comparisons to the Marvel superhero The Incredible Hulk, featured at the time in a television series. He first competed in 1979 in the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now known as WWE) but became a mainstay and fan favourite in the mid-1980s alongside others like Andre the Giant and 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper. At age 48 in 2002, in the waning days of his competitive career, he even battled Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson. His brand of 'Hulkamania' transferred to the small and big screen, with roles in films such as 'Rocky III,' 'No Holds Barred' and TV's 'Baywatch.' 'He was absolutely wonderful and his amazing skill made Rocky three incredibly special. My heart breaks,' said 'Rocky' star Sylvester Stallone. Hogan was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2005. But the scandal over his use of racial slurs led to his firing from WWE in 2015. He later apologised for his actions and was reinstated to the Hall of Fame. When a tape emerged of Hogan having sex with a woman who was not his wife in 2012, he filed suit against Gawker Media and won a US$140 million judgment for invasion of privacy. He eventually accepted a settlement of US$31 million, but the case divided media and press freedom advocates after it was revealed that Silicon Valley billionaire Peter Thiel had funded Hogan's case as part of an effort to drive Gawker out of business. Gawker shut its site down months after the verdict. 'Great friend' Hogan memorably appeared at the 2024 Republican National Convention that would seal Trump's nomination — tearing his shirt off to reveal a Trump-Vance tank top. 'We lost a great friend today, the 'Hulkster.' Hulk Hogan was MAGA all the way — Strong, tough, smart, but with the biggest heart,' Trump said on social media. 'He gave an absolutely electric speech at the Republican National Convention, that was one of the highlights of the entire week. He entertained fans from all over the World, and the cultural impact he had was massive.' Hogan suffered numerous health problems in later years, stemming from the years of abuse his body took in the ring. In the 1990s, he admitted under oath that he had used anabolic steroids at the peak of his career. He was married three times, and had two children with his first wife Linda. — AFP
