This is the movie that terrified our wolverine for life.
We all remember that one movie that gave us chills to the extent that we couldn’t sleep for nights. Well, our wolverine aka Hugh Jackman revealed that he was so terrified by a scene in the movie that it almost gave him PTSD and that movie is none other than, ‘The Wizards of Oz’.
“We went to see the movie and all I remember from it was the monkey scene at the end. I was so terrified that I hid in front of my father’s feet behind, so I was hiding and crying through the thing and it absolutely, completely tortured me“,
Said Hugh.
Hugh Jackman’s first movie ever gave him nightmares
He further added that the Wicked Witch traumatized him so much that he had nightmares for almost five years. ‘It’s a miracle I ever went back , to be honest. I’ve probably still got PTSD from it,’ he added.
He said, “It’s interesting because for the whole 17 years I kept thinking that would be so great, like I would love to see, particularly, Iron Man and the Hulk and Wolverine together. And every time I saw an Avengers movie I could just see Wolverine in the middle of all of them like punching them all on the head. But it was like, ‘Oh well, that’s not gonna happen,’ and it was interesting just when I first saw that headline — it was just the possibility of it and who knows what’s gonna happen, obviously — I was like, ‘Hang on!’ But I think, unfortunately, the ship has sailed for me, but for someone else, I would like to see Wolverine in there.”
Did you get as scared as Hugh Jackman while watching ‘Wizards Of Oz’?
Snow Family Dentistry (+1-480-982-7289) updated its Invisalign clear aligner therapy treatments for those with underbite, overbite, crossbite, gaps, crooked teeth etc in the Gilbert, Apache Junction and Mesa AZ area
Mesa, AZ, United States, Oct. 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —
The practice is passionate about helping people patients smile confidently by fixing alignment problems like crossbite, underbite, overbite, gaps, crooked teeth, and spaces.
They use Invisalign to straighten and position teeth personally for each case. Their updated treatment means everyone gets the smile they want and experiences a self-esteem and confidence boost.
For patients preferring ‘not so obvious’ and a more comfortable substitute to train track or metal braces, Invisalign could be a great choice. Invisalign clear aligners are manufactured with transparent compound and customized to fit firmly and comfortably over the patient’s teeth. This makes them very discrete and unlikely to be seen.
Dr. Dallin Snow and his dedicated staff can help patients choose the best solution to optimize their smile. If the patient is a good fit for Invisalign, the team will create 3D models of the teeth, thus ensuring a precise fit as explained here https://snowfamilydentistry.com/services/cosmetic-dentistry/invisalign-mesa-az
Each aligner tray will be worn for approximately two weeks. At the end of two weeks, patients switch to the next tray in the series. Generally, they will need to visit the dentist less often, usually only once every six to eight weeks.
Although the full cost of Invisalign varies depending on the patient’s needs, one can anticipate that it will cost somewhere between $3,000 to $7,000. At Snow Family Dentistry, the cost covers both the treatment and the consultation.
The practice has been serving patients in the Mesa, Arizona, area for more than 40 years. In addition to orthodontic treatments, they also offer restorative and preventative dental services, as well as emergency care and whole family dentistry solutions.
A satisfied patient said: “I am so pleased with Snow Family dentistry. Dr. Snow and Ilxys are amazing and they make you feel comfortable throughout your dental treatment. They even have massage chairs in the back if you get there too early. I highly recommend this office to anyone in the East Valley.”

Cashing in on America’s obsession with true crime podcasts, ‘Truth Be Told’ returned with Season 2 on 20 August 2021. Created by Nichelle Tramble Spellman, the ‘Truth Be Told’ Season 2 storyline follows investigative reporter turned podcaster Poppy, played by Octavia Spencer, as she dives into a new case involving her childhood friend, media mogul Micah Keith, played by Kate Hudson. This was Hudson’s first lead role in a TV series, but was that enough to save ‘Truth Be Told’ Season 2 from falling flat on its face? Let’s find out.
Highlights —
‘Truth Be Told’ Season 1: Hit or miss?
‘Truth Be Told’ Season 2: Kate Hudson, Octavia Spencer not enough
‘Truth Be Told’ Season 2 review: A tedious run, you’ll wish it was over
‘TRUTH BE TOLD’ SEASON 1: HIT OR MISS?
Anthology drama series ‘Truth Be Told’ Season 1 premiered on 5 December 2019. Based on Kathleen Barber’s novel ‘Are You Sleeping’, this Apple TV+ production in its first season begins with true crime podcaster Poppy Parnell investigating the case of convicted killer Warren Cave (played by Aaron Paul), who she projected as the murderer of the father of identical twins. The storyline starts to take shape when Cave claims that he was framed for the crime.
The same murder case which skyrocketed Parnell into nationwide fame comes back to haunt her when the newfound evidence points at Cave being wrongfully convicted in the first place. Despite having a gripping premise, the central crime story aspect is far less engaging than the family drama orbiting in the periphery. In fact, it is a twisted thriller that never really manages to get it all together. Based on the reviews, ‘Truth Be Told’ Season 1 could at best be called an average watch.
Truth be told, Kate Hudson-starrer ‘Truth Be told’ Season 2 isn’t as intense as fans anticipated
‘TRUTH BE TOLD’ SEASON 2: KATE HUDSON, OCTAVIA SPENCER NOT ENOUGH
‘Truth Be Told’ Season 2 storyline essentially explores the lives of two women, whose lifelong friendship is put to the ultimate test, as new developments unfold. In Season 2, Hudson joined the force with series regulars Christopher Backus, Alona Tal, David Lyons, Andre Royo, Merle Dandridge, and Mychala Faith Lee.
As the leads, both Octavia Spencer and Kate Hudson deliver stellar, nuanced performances. Interestingly, this is Hudson’s first role as a television series lead. The supporting cast is also powerful and manages to hold attention. But clearly, the casting wasn’t enough to save the day when the ‘Truth Be Told’ Season 2 storyline itself was falling short.
Poppy’s lifelong friendship and integrity are put to test when she is invited by her childhood close friend Micah to investigate the murder of her infidel husband Joshua, whose flings were an open secret in town. So, much like season 1, the true-crime aspect at the core of it is, sadly, not as interesting as the peripheral family drama.

‘TRUTH BE TOLD’ SEASON 2 REVIEW: A TEDIOUS RUN, YOU’LL WISH IT WAS OVER
Poppy trying to find the murderer, while trying to save her marriage and simultaneously uncovering the dark past of her townspeople, who are also suspects in the case, is just too much to handle at once. Everyone’s a suspect in the beginning, but by the end of it, the search for the murderer gets too exhausting to watch.
That’s not all. Amidst all the secrets gradually revealing themselves, Poppy is served with a legal notice from Owen Cave, father of season 1’s central character Warren Cave, threatening to sue her. Now, this determines how she approaches her ongoing investigation as any wrong move can and will be used against her. One chaos leads to another, with no fruitful resolution. Throughout season 2, we get glimpses of Poppy’s past where her misjudgement and recklessness have caused trouble in the lives of some of her closest people. But why is Poppy Parnell so committed to all this? No one knows.

In short, you wish it was over, long before the 10-episode season comes to an end. Yes, anticlimactic endings do work in thrillers, but not when the whodunit chase gets painstakingly tedious. Thus, ‘Truth Be Told’ can safely be called a complete dud. ‘Truth Be Told’ Season 2 is now streaming on Apple TV+. Watch it and let us know your review in the comments below.

AugLi powered Indian Debating League places the youth front and centre for the vision on UN Sustainable Development Goals
NEW DELHI, Oct. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The Indian Debating League is the IPL of Debating, wherein teams from 28 states and 8 UTs have been united by AugLi, a 21st-century Future Skills Academy, to put forth their points of view and address the UN SDG issues relevant for the nation. Providing the school students with a top tier public speaking platform has been well-received, with 3500+ participants competing and 50,000 spectators cheering this debate tournament.
Founder Anjali Tiwary believes, “Debating is not the prerogative of the privileged. We can’t have a few people design the future, just because they have had an opportunity. Every child must have a seat on the table.” Indian Debating League (IDL) addresses this like IPL does – search for fresh talent, give exposure to the very best and create the ecosystem to make debating thrive in India.
The feisty finals between the two-state teams go live today on 2nd Oct’21. The top 18 students from Grades 4 to 12 are voicing their thoughts on national issues. You can join in here – https://augli.ai/indiandebatingleague. These students are the top contenders having played 4 matches already on SDGs relevant for their States. While metros’ teams passionately discussed rapid urbanization pitfalls, the coastal states of Gujarat and West Bengal were at loggerheads vying to get focus on the ocean economy. Interestingly, the teams got a nature’s thumbs-up as the adjudicators heard a thunder strike during the debate itself.
As preparation for the debates, the contenders have been groomed by international and national debate coaches with extensive live Masterclass sessions. Likes of Harish Natarajan, Brian Wong and Jason Xiao, the current coaches of Hong Kong and Canada, have given practical tips to the young minds. Watch the Masterclasses – https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCInqIz6dQvzl2rasLHF0rMg
Co-Founder Kamal Kashyap believes, “League-based competitions engage and excite students to learn the most, as compared to any other medium, similar to e-sports leagues, which see participation from millions of students. This same excitement needs to be replicated in the Education sector as well.”
This passion has been shared by partners like ISDS, Fampay, Openhouse, Tinkerly, Sanako and Tutela, who have joined hands to democratize debating in India. With this innovative concept creating a buzz globally, AugLi is set to launch International Debating Leagues across geographies including Canada, UAE, Singapore, Hong Kong, and the US.
AugLi enables learners to be more aware, have a point of view and express themselves better. It focuses on the 21st century competencies based on digital literacy, communication, critical thinking and collaboration across networks. Mentored by global educators and advisors from our Alma maters, Stanford University and IIT Delhi, we were recognised by the Global Skills and Education Forum in Dubai, Business Today, Inc42 and Singapore EdTech Finalist Nov 2020 as one of the innovative solutions for Critical Thinking.

Despite the popularity of MCU, we shouldn’t forget about the prolific output of DC over the years. The comics giant has its fair share of tricks up its sleeve, and some pretty ladies to administer those tricks. Here are the hottest gals from DC to watch out for in future movies.
DC has been the home of some brilliant comics for years now. However, seeing the popularity of characters like Superman and Batman, it’s easy to forget the people behind the scenes. The women who have run DC are not only trailblazing fighters and wonder-workers, these characters are hot enough to be anyone’s flavour of the week. As MCU is back in our lives, we should extend a hand to the DC fandom which is slated to bring these hotties to our screens in the next few years.
HIGHLIGHTS —
Who are the hottest women in DC?
Who do we expect to light our screens on fire come the next releases?
What’s going to push DCEU ahead?
Hottest Women In DC
1/6
CATWOMAN
Zoey Kravitz wasn’t anyone’s first choice to play Catwoman. However, now she seems to be perfect for the role. The young actress has wowed people with her acting performance in ‘Big Little Lies‘ and been a constant presence at Beauty Hotlists across the years. She has a noir look that could defeat anyone and carries a charm that is unique to herself.

Walking into the boots of Selena Kyle, played by iconic women like Eartha Kitt and Nichelle Pfeiffer, is no mean feat. However, Selena also carries a story of being betrayed by the world and being forced into crime by societal problems. With her acting chops and gorgeous looks, Catwoman is all set to blaze our screens with Batman. Still unsure? Look at this still from her Instagram, which pulls out her best look.
2/6
BATWOMAN
Batwoman has been a much-debated property on the silver screen. When the series debuted in 2018, it was with much fanfare. Part of the hype was owed to Ruby Rose, who was one of the sexiest people to don a superhero costume on TV. However, Ruby Rose’s performance as Kate Kane was widely panned due to her lack of ability to act.
Kate Kane is not only the hottest female in DC Comics, but she is also one of the most nuanced characters in the entire universe. She has long-standing rivalries with some of the greatest villains and is a great detective like her male counterpart.
So, Javicia Leslie, who took up the throne from Ruby Rose, was looked to as one of the better women to don to the cape. And she has proven herself.
A natural fighter (look at her playing with the staff in this video) and a good actress, her works have been setting ‘Batwoman’ apart as one of the best DC properties. With her success, we can expect her to hit the silver screens running.
‘Birds of Prey‘ was something else. In a movie industry fraught with male narratives and women who seem to be driven only by men’s whims, ‘Birds of Prey’ wrote a story that was entirely women-based. Sure, it was a popcorn movie, but, the characters were well-written and everyone got their due screen-time.
One of the best scenes in the movies is when the Birds of Prey actually come together and hit out at the baddies using their myriad weapons. Jurnee Smollett is the person to watch out for in the movie and in other roles.
Turning in a brilliant role in ‘Lovecraft Country’, Smollett has been hitting all the steps right lately. With Black Canary set to appear in more DC films and more strides to take as a hero, Smollett would be serving us more of these looks soon. Black Canary is one of the sexiest women of DC Comics, and the way Smollett is going, the movie screens are next.
5/6
CIRCE
HBO Max has been developing a ‘Justice League Dark’ series for a while now with J.J Abrahams. One of the main villains in the series remains Circe. Circe is one of the scariest beings in the DC Universe, an immortal witch who has not only been a thorn at the magic-users side but, has troubled Wonder Woman for long years as well.

Circe is an immortal witch blessed with the powers to manipulate reality and create magical traps that even the most cunning of heroes can’t escape. One of the strongest female superheroes in DC, Circe has been a long-running thorn on the side of our beloved heroes.
As depicted here, not only is Circe scary, she’s one of the hottest women in DC to boot.
6/6
POISON IVY
Poison ivy has been long-rumoured to be a part of the future ‘Batman’ movies. Though the actresses are currently not confirmed. Ana De Armas has been rumoured to be in the running. If this fan-made picture is anything to go by, she’d be sizzling on and off the screen in her green-skin costume.
Fan casting aside, Poison Ivy is an intriguing villain with a long history of leaving heroes dumbfounded. She’s a scientist and someone who can achieve impossible things. With Harley being free, there’s no reason to not bring her girlfriend in tow, so we should be on the lookout for Poison Ivy on our screens soon.

DC is all set to ring in the new year with some hot ladies, and these women aren’t afraid to cause some violence in their wake. Wait for these DC bombshells to appear on the silver screen and take it by storm.

Since their establishment, BEN has offered course material designed to spur blockchain adoption by empowering members to bring blockchain to their communities, now being the largest and oldest network of blockchain students, alumni, and professors across the world.
“The technology is moving quickly and while there are a number of courses online, they are expensive,” Erick Pinos, President of BEN, “We are partnering with the Blockchain Trade Association because we believe free classes is the right approach to knowledge sharing.”
