Uproxx says the producers ''Jurassic World Dominion'' added feathers to their dinosaurs because paleontologists demanded it. The film's paleontology consultant, Steve Brusatte, tells Variety magazine, “I’m really pleased with the feathers. That’s the biggest thing of all because we’ve known that dinosaurs had feathers for a long time, but they haven’t made it into Jurassic World, frustratingly. Or Jurassic Park. I was always annoyed about the lack of feathers.''

The movie topped the weekend box office with $143.4 million



The Sun says Tom Cruise and Hayley Atwell have allegedly broken up again. A source tells the newspaper, “Tom and Hayley’s relationship was genuine. In spite of some rumors to the contrary, it was never just for the cameras. Unfortunately it hasn’t worked out for them. They get on really well, and have fantastic chemistry, which is why they decided to quietly give the relationship another try earlier this year. But what was working behind closed doors didn’t work out so well when it was made public, and the fanfare around them as a couple exploded again. They have now decided they are better as friends.”

A source tells the newspaper, "Pete signed the deal during his trip to London with Kim just a few days ago but already there's a kickback behind the scenes. The cast and crew are like a family and very protective of each other. They don't think it's right after his vile comments about Paul's death. Some would rather Pete wasn't in the film at all, but at the very least want him to publicly apologize."

Chris Evans tells Variety magazine that replacing Tim Allen as the voice of Buzz Lightyear was intimidating. "The first time you have to do that iconic line, 'To Infinity and Beyond...,' you kind of just do a shameless Tim Allen impression. It's intimidating. But Angus (MacLane, the director) and everyone at Pixar was so collaborative, and you kind of let them guide you. Eventually you feel comfortable enough to make your own tracks in the snow and find your own interpretation, while still using Tim Allen as the blueprint."

The film opens on Thursday night



Captain America star Chris Evans tells Entertainment Tonight that he wants to do a movie about legendary dancer Gene Kelly. "God, I'm dying to get that thing on its feet, no pun intended. I love dancing, tap dancing. I love, love, love Gene Kelly. It's not a biopic by any means. It's more of a kinda voice, kind of fantastical interpretation of Gene Kelly but it's something that will require a lot of work. This isn't something you can just kind of say, 'Yeah, dust off the tap shoes and dive in.' This is something that will take months and months to kind of perfect and make sure that I do it justice. But I can't think of anything more exciting."

Doctor Says Couples Should Not Sleep Together


The Irish Mirror newspaper says a University of Sunderland professor is going viral for telling couples not to sleep together if they want a good night's sleep. Dr Karan Rajan says, "One of the triggers you need to be able to fall asleep, is the drop in core body temperature. Sharing a bed increases body heat so it'll take longer for you to fall asleep. Not everyone shares the same sort of sleep cycle. One partner may well be chronically sleep-deprived, while the other is well-rested, or the other way around.''


Weight Loss Tip

A well-known weight loss expert tells the Irish Mirror newspaper that the best time to stop eating for the day is 8 p.m.

Dr. Michael Mosley says "Try and stop eating by 8pm and then not eat anything with calories after that. The temptation is to eat cheese and bread late into the night. Although the idea that cheese will give you nightmares is a complete and utter myth, it will obviously be quite a lot of calories loaded on late at night. And we know the fat and sugar you eat later at night, it just hangs around in your system for much, much longer because your body is just closed down for night. Your digestive process will be closing down, and it really will not appreciate that late night snack.''



Dear Fonseca

My twin sister and I spent the weekend debating what to get our father for Father's Day. She wants to buy him an expensive present while I want to be crafty and make one. She says store bought gifts are better than homemade ones. I disagree. I think homemade gifts mean more because of the effort that goes into making them. She says that's fine if you're a kid, but not if you're adults like us? What is your opinion on this?
