In its second weekend at the box office, “The Marvels” continues to face a steep decline in ticket sales, while the highly anticipated prequel to “The Hunger Games” takes the lead in the pre-Thanksgiving box office race.

“The Marvels,” the latest installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, experienced a sharp drop in its second weekend, with a 60% decrease in ticket sales compared to its opening weekend.

Despite its strong opening, the film’s performance in its second week suggests a lack of sustained audience interest.

On the other hand, “The Hunger Games” prequel, titled “The Ballad of the Mockingjay,” has exceeded expectations with a strong debut.

The film, which explores the origins of the Hunger Games, has resonated with both fans of the original series and newcomers alike. Its gripping storyline and well-received performances have propelled it to the top of the box office charts.

As the pre-Thanksgiving weekend approaches, “The Ballad of the Mockingjay” appears poised to maintain its dominance at the box office, leaving “The Marvels” struggling to catch up.

The question on everyone’s mind is whether “The Marvels” can regain its momentum or if it will continue to lag behind in the competitive movie market.

Trump claims Iran’s military largely neutralized; tensions rise with attacks threatening air travel and oil shipping.

President Trump says Iran’s military capability has been largely neutralised, including its navy and air force, as the conflict in the Middle East intensifies. Iranian attacks have threatened commercial air travel and oil shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, raising fears of wider economic fallout.

The U.S. Embassy in Riyadh has faced two attacks, while Gulf states worked to intercept further Iranian strikes. Officials report six U.S. troops killed and more than 700 deaths inside Iran as the exchange of fire escalates.

With global markets watching closely, the region remains on edge as military and diplomatic tensions show no signs of easing.
