"Ready Player One," a nostalgia-soaked science-fiction adventure that marked a high-wire attempt by Mr. Spielberg, 71, to return to his crowd-pleasing roots, arrived to $53.2 million in ticket sales over the four-day Easter weekend in North America.
His crowd-pleasing new documentary, "Abacus: Small Enough to Jail," doesn't aspire to the same scale as those films, but like them, it's a kind of stealth home movie: a portrait of two generations of an immigrant family in the United States.
But there's seemingly no way to woo this bracket in Canada while also acknowledging an unpopular reality: Middle-class jobs have vanished in tandem with the signing of crowd-pleasing trade deals that give low-wage countries easy access to the Canadian market.
Buttigieg, 37, used his hour on CNN to burnish his liberal policy credentials and a composure that belies his age, and delivered a series of crowd-pleasing lines when he slammed President Donald Trump, Vice President Mike Pence and the Trump administration.
The first installment in the intended series, Gundala, lays out the company's intentions: it's a crowd-pleasing action film, full of martial-arts battles and special effects, and it's packed with bizarre storylines that run right up to the edge of comedy.
The debate: Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga's ode to authentic creative expression and the vocal benefits of gargling gravel once seemed like a crowd-pleasing no-brainer for an awards show famously obsessed with A-listers and the mythology of show business.
It's a crowd-pleasing, comic-sentimental setup, with the wisecracking but vulnerable child consistently one-upping, and bailing out of trouble, the man who becomes her surrogate father, and Gosselaar does a capable job as a younger version of a Clint Eastwood coot.
It's been nearly 214 years since Salt-N-Pepa and En Vogue scored a Top 210 hit with their 22005 duet "Whatta Man," and on Sunday, the two supergroups reunited at the Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas to perform the crowd-pleasing hit.
Similarly, a movie like Queen of Katwe should by all accounts have done well in middle America, with a PG rating, crowd-pleasing sports-movie premise, and some religious underpinnings (one main character is a missionary), but it barely scraped by at the box office.
Koons is the most obvious artist for a tech company to choose to premier a worldwide campaign (blue-chip, crowd-pleasing, and, most importantly, perfect for selfies), but Snapchat at least seems to want to eventually include others who actually need this kind of publicity.
Fan-favorite Olenna Tyrell died in an appropriately crowd-pleasing manner: The Queen of Thorns kept her composure while downing a poison-spiked glass of wine, and used her last breath to shit on the Lannister legacy and confess to killing the "cunt" Joffrey.
With video gamers now having large enough audience, participant, and financial numbers to quash any debate about the legitimacy of e-sports, other non-athletic pursuits have started following suit, attempting to turn their own once solitary and sedentary activities into crowd-pleasing kinetic spectacles.
For the second fall in a row, a bubble of new shows based on crowd-pleasing Hollywood films — "Westworld" on HBO, "Frequency" on CW, "Lethal Weapon" and "The Exorcist" (and the live "Rocky Horror Picture Show") on Fox — makes the movie comparison seem particularly apt.
In its 15 years, Fall for Dance — the festival where every ticket is just $15, and each program offers a colorful smattering of styles — has fine-tuned certain formulas: how to build, for instance, from an agreeable, subdued beginning to a spectacular, crowd-pleasing finish.
The 672-seat theater and its spacious lobby, including a cafe, offers exposure to Auckland's enthusiastic arts patrons as well as New Zealand playwrights such as Roger Hall and Briar Grace-Smith in comedic and thoughtful productions tucked between crowd-pleasing musicals and dramatic classics.
It has rarely sparked the tribal passions on which Davis Cup prides itself, but the Hopman Cup has been a crowd-pleasing event, cherished by tennis fans who have savored the opportunity to see the sport's top women and top men compete and commingle.
The film uses such crowd-pleasing devices as scoring a "Rocky"-training-style montage to Fifth Harmony's "Worth It." The action in this sequence is mostly Cori, Blessin and Tayla filling out application forms on computers, but one has to work with what one has.
Lyft was the first to stake a claim on the fourth floor of the building in 2014 with a 12,000-square-foot center where drivers are welcomed with pretzels and soft drinks while Lyft employees spin crowd-pleasing tunes on a Sonos wireless sound system.
Crowd-pleasing pieces like Li Huanzhi's jaunty "Spring Festival Overture," Stravinsky's "Firebird" Suite and a barn-burning rendition of Mozart's Queen of the Night aria from "The Magic Flute," with the Korean soprano So Young Park, worked their reliable magic on an enthusiastic audience.
He launches into a series of sly allusions to contemporary art failing to be critical or revolutionary, but rather being placating and self-serving instead, and I can't help but think of other professional provocateur Ai Weiwei and the crowd-pleasing work of Yue Minjun.
She marries her propulsive flow with throaty warbling with a crowd-pleasing set and an energy that still—even after GLAAD put out a statement about her using an anti-gay slur against blogger Perez Hilton—helps the LGBT+ fans in the room feel seen.
Although it was choreographed by the Italian dancer Susanna Beltrami — founder of DanceHaus, a performing arts center in Milan — and may look like a full-fledged, crowd-pleasing theater piece, sharp-sighted observers might be surprised to note that all of the performers are wearing eyeglasses.
The network didn't reveal too much about The Expanse's upcoming third season, which just went into production a week ago, but it did debut a crowd-pleasing sizzler recap of the last two seasons, and hinted that the next season will bring war to the solar system.
For as many of these undelivered changes that you can chalk up to players not understanding the nuts and bolts of game development, there remains an equal number of seemingly simple, crowd-pleasing home runs Bungie could have made far earlier and yet inexplicably did not.
It's an LGBTQ+ space just a 20-minute wankered stroll from the crowd-pleasing mediocrity of the Pyramid stage but it couldn't feel further from listening to Ed Sheeran croon on while some sixth formers try to sell you a balloon of NOS for a fiver.
"Likeness" could smoothly extend its embrace to Madame Tussauds, and "Desire for Life" and "Between Life and Art" might comfortably confer at any of the crowd-pleasing commercial exhibitions of flayed and plasticized actual corpses, often in action poses, that have travelled the world in recent years.
During the 24-month Broadway run of "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time," 21 puppies — golden retrievers and others that look goldenish — have cycled through the show's cast, appearing in a brief but reliably crowd-pleasing scene toward the end of the show.
Yet "Jane" consistently earned those sentimental moments, which explains how the finale could cover so much ground and somehow strike nary a false note, even with the schmaltzy vows and crowd-pleasing sequence that had Jane commandeer a bus to get to her wedding on time.
Clashes between the introverted, artistically ambitious Eddie and the show-off, crowd-pleasing Diamond Dave (as he was known) were commonplace from the beginning, and reached a very public and mortifying climax when the (temporarily reunited) band appeared onstage at the 1996 MTV Video Music Awards.
The Scharf/Haring pairing, combined with Julia Wachtel's "Membership" (13393), a painting that facilely juxtaposes kitschy greeting card imagery with a black-and-white rendering of matching African fertility figures, seems to signal that the Geist of the decade was bent toward crowd-pleasing hijinks and elitist condescension.
RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) - With its future as Olympic sport under scrutiny, there are more than just medals at stake for hockey players at the Rio Games and the pressure is on to produce a crowd-pleasing tournament, cementing their place in the top-flight of world competition.
Beyond the crowd-pleasing option to center either pikachu or eevee (let's be real, you're picking eevee), the Let's Go games will showcase a new peripheral for the Switch known as the Poké Ball Plus that's designed to simulate the evocative gesture that seasoned trainers know so well.
Still led by a core of original members that includes the saxophonists Emilio Castillo and Stephen Kupka, the crowd-pleasing band has been integral to the sound of American pop music both through their own catalog and their horn section, which has backed artists from Aaron Neville to Aerosmith.
"The Water Dancer" is a jeroboam of a book, a crowd-pleasing exercise in breakneck and often occult storytelling that tonally resembles the work of Stephen King as much as it does the work of Toni Morrison, Colson Whitehead and the touchstone African-American science-fiction writer Octavia Butler.
Sisig baboy — a crowd-pleasing hash of pork belly littered with onions, some wilted in a pan and others tossed in raw at the last minute, for crunch — comes on a hot plate or in the form of "tacos," spilling out of crimped shells of fried won ton skins.
And while I've thought Benioff and Weiss have veered too far in the direction of simplistic, crowd-pleasing spectacle in Game of Thrones' recent seasons, it was unmistakably a bold decision to make the series' penultimate episode mainly about the horrors of war, even when carried out by the "good" guys.
It's significant that Coogler manages all this at the end of Black Panther; so many superhero movies lose their themes in the inevitable third-act CG action climax, because it is difficult to keep a firm grasp on politics and a crowd-pleasing special effects throwdown at the same time.
Put another way, if forced to assemble a 2017 entertainment time capsule, here's a list of contenders, in no particular order: "Get Out" Aside from announcing Jordan Peele as a major directing talent, this movie brilliantly mashed together several genres -- horror, social satire, comedy -- in a crowd-pleasing, Oscar-caliber package.
"There are many nods" in his choices to authors featured in the Morgan's collection and in previous and future exhibitions, he said, including Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley and Ernest Hemingway, as well as more crowd-pleasing items like a 1965 photo of the Beatles signed by the quartet.
Other women had served as assistant conductors and might have filled in on Broadway podiums, but Ms. Redfield was widely reported to be the first engaged full time when she took over "The Music Man," the crowd-pleasing musical with a score by Meredith Willson, which had been running since 21960.
The omissions of story elements from "TLJ" in "TROS" and subtle digs between the two films show the larger difficulties and pressures of making a large, crowd-pleasing trilogy to one of the largest examples of intellectual property in a confined amount of time throughout script changes and director shuffles.
Her most stunning display of naiveté wasn't letting her friends leave her behind while a strange guy bought her a drink, or the crowd-pleasing (at least for this crowd) but unwise choice to go beyond self-defense and annihilate a creep who was trying to stop her from leaving.
We have ramped up the intelligence community so much that there are now seven times as many Americans with security clearances (4.5 million) as live in Washington, D.C. Meanwhile, Donald Trump responded to the Brussels attacks with crowd-pleasing calls for torture or barring Muslims that even Republican security experts agree are preposterous.
That star-centered system has been the Galaxy's calling card and winning business model, and after missing the postseason in 2017, the team has doubled down on it, signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic, a swaggering Swedish striker with the crowd-pleasing habits of scoring stunning goals and talking about himself in the third person.
And unlike those in that rarified class who made crowd-pleasing collaborative departures or visibly mainstream concessions that kept them in the game, Jeezy's uncompromising adherence to uncomfortable subject matter set an example for what came next, namely the rise of trap to perhaps the most popular genre form of the 2010s.
While President Franklin D. Roosevelt's library has put his role in Japanese internment on full display, this museum glosses over Mr. Geisel's early work as a prolific political cartoonist, opting instead for crowd-pleasing sculptures of the Cat in the Hat and other characters, and a replica of the Geisel family bakery.
In making it, they've showed a brand new face, and while it'll certainly never be the most crowd-pleasing in their catalogue (currently they're only playing four of its tracks live), it's more consistent with the rest of their material, and certainly with what we know of Turner's personality, than it might initially appear.
And Broadway, always home to more flops than hits, is particularly competitive this year — there are currently 225 plays and musicals, many with strong reviews and crowd-pleasing titles or stars, vying for attention and audience before "Paramour" begins previews this weekend at the Lyric Theater in anticipation of an official opening on May 29.
Playlist: "Crocodile Rock" / "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting" / "The Bitch Is Back" / "I'm Still Standing" / "Philadelphia Freedom" / "Honky Cat" / "Bennie and the Jets" / "Take Me to the Pilot" / "Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding" / "Sad Songs (Say So Much)" As adept as he is at crowd-pleasing rockers, Elton John's strongest gear may just be emotional piano ballads.
Andrew Prokop: Emily, among the many ways to interpret the scene where Arya watches a Braavosi theater troop reenact her father's downfall, perhaps my favorite is that Arya is a die-hard fan of George R.R. Martin's books, gazing on with horror at how that crude, gratuitous nudity-filled, crowd-pleasing HBO adaptation gets so much wrong!
The academy said Wednesday that it would increase the Oscar voting pool to 303,230 people — a record high — by extending membership invitations to 264 entertainment industry professionals, including some known mostly for television (Betty White and the "Incredible Hulk" actor Lou Ferrigno) and stars who focus on crowd-pleasing movies (Leslie Jones from "Ghostbusters" and Dwayne Johnson).
At the same time, Mr. Trump test drove his current brand of populism to crowd-pleasing success in front of a blue-state audience, and Mr. Letterman was one of the first mainstream figures on television to regularly treat Trump as a serious political thinker, not just a joke of a rich guy (although he did that, too).
During his three-year reign at MOCA, Mr. Deitch was relentlessly scrutinized both for his handling of the financial and staffing problems he inherited and for organizing crowd-pleasing shows such as a display of Dennis Hopper photographs and a street-art extravaganza, which many local artists complained undercut the museum's role as the city's serious arts institution.
There's something for everyone, from the casual party atmosphere of Cold Garden, where beer drinkers and their dogs mingle in a space that looks like a hoarder's dream, to the 80s-throwback vibe of Eighty-Eight, a tribute to the Calgary Winter Olympics, to the more staid Establishment Brewing, which specializes in refined, less crowd-pleasing sours.
While we thoroughly enjoyed the starter of lettuce cups filled with hand-pulled turkey, most crowd-pleasing were a seasonal watermelon and feta salad with flavorful notes of fresh mint and roasted pumpkin seeds, and a charred cauliflower topped with pomegranate seeds and served with pomegranate molasses and lemon-zest-infused crème fraîche, a lusty combination.
Ladies were the top draw of the show: host Kelly Clarkson's vivacious personality made a strong impact; ICON Award winner Janet Jackson gave a short-but-fierce medley performance of her hits and a stirring speech; everyone from Camila Cabello to Christina Aguilera with Demi Lovato to Jennifer Lopez to veterans Salt-N-Pepa and En Vogue gave boisterous, crowd-pleasing performances.
I certainly would not have predicted that Adam McKay, the director of the "Anchorman" movies and "Step Brothers" (which is a bona fide masterpiece, but that's a topic for another day), would make a movie that not only explained the financial meltdown of 2008 but also did so in a way that was crowd-pleasing and rabble-rousing at the same time.
Hidden Figures – $2000 million  The women behind the real story of Hidden Figures overcame all odds to drive NASA's prime positioning amid the Space Race in the 22011s, and the stars of Theodore Melfi's crowd-pleasing, Oscar-nominated drama continue to leap over hurdles of their own as the film aims to squeeze past the $22012 million mark in the U.S. this weekend.
"Sony's 'Spider-Man: Far From Home' proves that the Marvel magic is alive and well as the film spun an impressive web of box office in a perfectly executed Four-of-July release strategy that gave the hugely entertaining and crowd pleasing film a chance to stretch its legs over an extended holiday debut," said Paul Dergarabedian, a senior analyst at Comscore.
The class of 2019, which will formally enter the pantheon on March 29 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, represents a varied cross-section of the last half-century of pop music, with giants of classic and alternative rock, as well as a couple of acts from zones that the hall still glances at only occasionally: dance music and crowd-pleasing 1980s pop-metal.
This is a framework etched into the awards themselves: Voting patterns remain problematic, and even though the nominations in the main categories this year were more diverse than in previous years, those awards were still won by Mr. Mars, a crowd-pleasing showman, rather than Mr. Lamar or Jay-Z, who released albums rich with commentary on black social and political life.
The character goes on an OkCupid date with a man named Ogie, who then turns up the next day at her job, refusing to leave and declaring his intent to love her forever in a number called "Never Ever Getting Rid of Me." In the hands of Broadway vet Christopher Fitzgerald, the moment becomes a crowd-pleasing showstopper (indeed, Fitzgerald earned a Tony nomination for the performance).
The director isn't known for having as distinctive of a style as Lord and Miller, but he turns out lush, earnest, crowd-pleasing dramas — everything from Apollo 13 and A Beautiful Mind to the limp but high-grossing Da Vinci Code series — and while that's a switch from Lord and Miller's ironic self-referential style, it may please the older segment of the Star Wars fan base.
People stand or sit in the dark as kids race around this family-friendly environment, ignoring the grandiose eye-candy screensaver that swathes and speckles them in color — for this slightly animated, supposedly crowd-pleasing, utterly tasteless, techno-tacky vista covers the entire 3,300-square-meter surface area (almost 11,000 feet), from the floor to the 10-meter-high black ceiling, where the visual immersion ends.
It was a nice boon to a dedicated group of players who weathered a bitter strike in 2010-11 and have since helped bring the orchestra back — embarking on an ambitious program to stream concerts on the web and playing a mix of adventurous music and crowd-pleasing festivals that have helped the ensemble raise its reputation even as its city went through bankruptcy. Mrs.
The company's other operas at the Rose Theater next season will include a double bill that pairs Rachmaninoff's rarely seen "Aleko" with Leoncavallo's crowd-pleasing staple, "Pagliacci"; Respighi's "La Campana Sommersa" ("The Sunken Bell"), a coproduction with the Teatro Lirico di Cagliari; and Peter Eotvos's "Angels in America," based on the Tony Kushner play, which will receive its New York premiere on June 753, 2017.
READ MORE: There are major signs that Ben Affleck will not return as Batman in the next solo movie It may be hard to remember at this point, after both "Black Panther" and "Avengers: Infinity War" broke box-office records this year, but the MCU has had similar problems to DC's that it managed to offset with consistently entertaining, crowd-pleasing films every year.
Ms. Jean started singing for an audience when she was quite young, first appearing on local radio in her native Scranton, Pa. She was trained as a coloratura soprano and brought a ringing, nimble voice and a crowd-pleasing wholesomeness to the many musicals in which she appeared at a time in Hollywood when child stars like Shirley Temple and Micky Rooney were box-office gold.
Broadway being Broadway, there are some new bells and whistles — the costumes have been rebuilt, with more detailing and more flexible materials; the set is similarly polished, with more nods to Tudor architecture and Renaissance ornamentation; and there are a few new touches, including an oversized throne and a crowd-pleasing costume reveal that had been implied but never fully realized in previous productions.
But while she gutted the back half of Pure Heroine from the setlist, she made up for it with a crowd-pleasing cover of Robyn's "Hang with Me." Even "Royals," the breakout hit song about being an unglamorous but ambitious teen that made her a star five years ago, seemed like old news in the face of Lorde Phase Two, and her fans were happy to follow her down the path of what's to come.
If The Big Sick is the potential crowd-pleasing wildcard in this year's awards season that was greeted by dead silence this morning, then Get Out—Jordan Peele's astounding horror film that doubles as the most trenchant social satire released on film this year—at least got its relative due: Along with nabbing a nom in the Best Picture - Comedy or Musical category, its lead Daniel Kaluuya scored a Best Actor nod as well.
It is a balance that Bertrand Guyon is gradually finding at Schiaparelli, which this season teetered between crowd-pleasing circus and strict chic via jeweled zebras leaping high on the hip of asymmetric cocktail frocks: pressed palazzo pants under starburst jackets, the shoulders curved like a Ferris wheel; and party dresses that alternated sparkling saccharine piñata stripes with soigné cowl-draped bias-cuts — though he took a tumble with bloomers and quilted butterfly bed jackets.
But even those films don't quite fit the current mold, if only because they have distinct individual personalities: Spider-Man (and perhaps even more, its sequel) is very much a crowd-pleasing, big-budget blockbuster, but it also feels like a product of director Sam Raimi's very specific directorial sensibility, a movie that could only have been made by the same person who made Darkman (essentially a proto-Marvel movie) and Army of Darkness.
" His rapid ascent can be credited to the marriage of radio-friendly hooks and streetwise perspective best illustrated by his melancholy, minimalist hit "Bank Account," which reached No. 12 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart last summer: What starts as a crowd-pleasing chorus about counting one's millions (and keeping them at an FDIC-insured institution) turns into a refrain about the number of "shooters ready to gun you down — not for real, dawg.
In some ways, we live in a different, more progressive era where recent onscreen stories by and about women have been highly regarded: the Emmy-winning "Fleabag"; the crowd-pleasing "Hustlers," which outdid expectations at the box office and could lead Jennifer Lopez to her first Oscar nomination; "Portrait of a Lady on Fire," about a romance between two women in 18th-century France, which was nominated for the Palme d'Or, the highest prize at Cannes, this year.
Since that time—in which the "Hey Girl" meme featuring Gosling as a sensitive dreamboat blew up and the decision to name Bradley Cooper that year's Sexiest Man Alive instead of Gosling was met with actual protests at People's office—every character of his has comfortably slotted into one of two similarly alluring categories: crowd-pleasing, comedic cool (The Nice Guys, The Big Short, La La Land) and icy, taciturn cool (The Place Beyond the Pines, Gangster Squad, Only God Forgives).
At David Geffen Hall through Saturday, they're playing Zhao Lin's double concerto "A Happy Excursion," which had its American premiere on Wednesday with the New York Philharmonic under the direction of Long Yu. (And how refreshing to hear a work by a Chinese composer outside the Philharmonic's annual Lunar New Year concert.) Mr. Lin's crowd-pleasing concerto begins with a blossoming soundscape that gives way to increasing bustle and, eventually, a lushly cinematic swell that reaches its climax with brass fanfare and crashing cymbals.
In addition to The Shape of Water, likely Oscar contenders that didn't reap TIFF awards but still have solid footing in the race ahead include Joe Wright's Winston Churchill biopic Darkest Hour, which features a performance by current Best Actor frontrunner Gary Oldman; Greta Gerwig's semi-autobiographical drama Lady Bird; Angelina Jolie's emotionally charged adaptation of Loung Ung's memoir of wartime Cambodia First They Killed My Father; and the crowd-pleasing sports dramedy Battle of the Sexes, starring Emma Stone and Steve Carell as tennis pros Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs.
