**The Hunger Games ** held off competition from Sam Worthington and Julia Roberts and retained the top spot at the box office . The Jennifer Lawrence starrer grossed $61.1 million over the weekend, a number that ups its cume to a fantastic $251 million. The production budget for the film is a reported $78 million, so this is a major success for Lionsgate, especially considering that The Hunger Games has crossed $364 million worldw
On the official Valorant Skins|Https://Valorantfocus.Com/ Twitter page, a teaser for the soon-to-be playable character Viper was recently posted. Viper seems to use poisons and toxins as a way to shroud herself from enemies, and the integrity of her poison gas field drops when she isn’t inside of it. Over the course of the last two weeks, Valorant has uploaded other teasers as well. One was for Phoenix, a fire-slinging character, while others were clips of gameplay and even previews of certain maps. This clip, showcasing the end of a round, was longer than the one posted for Phoenix and is embedded be
Valor fulfills The CW’s president Mark Pedowitz’s wish for a military drama, and marks the network’s third attempt at bringing such content to the lineup. Meanwhile, the reboot of Dynasty is the next in a long line of re-imaginings of television properties for a new generation. The CW is aiming for the 90210 and The OC crowd with the show, making its pairing with the genre-straddling Riverdale on Wednesday nights a smart choice. Life Sentence is also a departure from the network’s superhero side of things, as the show centers on a young woman (played by Pretty Little Liars star Lucy Hale) who discovers she’s no longer dying of cancer and now has to live with the consequences of certain decisions she made when under the impression there was no tomorrow (sorry, charming but canceled CW sh
There’s a lot about Riot’s upcoming FPS **Valorant ** that’s still being kept under wraps, but according to one source, the developer has revealed one bizarre weapon skin based on the quirky League of Legends joke character, Urf. Valorant is already being talked about as major competition for games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Overwatch , despite so little being known about
The title for this upcoming shooter was initially leaked via a Riot Games trademark filing , however, as more information came out, users began to realize that it was a clever marketing rollout. For one, Valorant already had a Twitter page with many important Esports players and journalists already following. Once the information was out, the full reveal was posted on the game’s official YouTube channel in the form of a round of gameplay similar to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive . In fact, Valorant seeks to blend the fast-paced, twitch-oriented gameplay of Counter-Strike and the character systems found in Overwatch . This unique blend has many players excited and some criti
Life Sentence , on the other hand, looks like it could be a charming hit for the network, as it has an interesting core premise but also a charming supporting cast that, from the look of the trailer, will offer the series plenty of story lines to explore as the series goes on and the initial conceit eventually moves into the background. Seeing that sort of future proofing in a trailer isn’t too common, so it might be a good thing that Life Sentence seems so aware its concept will only take the series so
All in all, Riot seems to be taking its vision for League of Legends further into the gaming sphere, but unlike Legends of Runeterra , this one seems to be moving away from that world. Considering the fact that it will be free-to-play, there seems to be absolutely no reason to not pick it up – especially if you’re a fan of the rest of their work – and see for yourself whether it’s worth your time. As of right now, it seems to be too early to tell – but as usual, we’re optimistically looking forward to
According to PC Gamer , Valorant’s developers have done a fantastic job of prioritizing hardware and software optimization. Riot stated Valorant is playable to at least 30 frames per second, ” on most-min spec computers (even dating back to a decade). ” To better understand the minimum requirements, Riot has outlined the baseline for each performance t
Julia Roberts’ turn in **Mirror Mirror ** failed to find much of an audience, scoring a mediocre $19 million. The $85 million fairy tale’s launch was a far cry from the $116 million that Tim Burton’s Alice In Wonderland had in 2010 and Mirror Mirror ’s debut was also below the $32 million that Immortals banked on its debut. That was the last feature from visualist director Tarsem, but Mirror Mirror ( read our review ) has the potential to have legs – if mothers and daughters decide to show up in the coming we
However, it also seems that weapon skins may be the most significant cosmetics coming to Valorant , at least for a while. According to Qwixzo, the game will launch without character skins. In the video, Nijland claims that Riot doesn’t want to obscure the silhouettes or hitboxes of the heroes by adding lots of character skins , similar to how Apex Legends offered only simplistic skins for its heroes when it first launc
