⭠ Last week's report

Spillovers from last week are relatively few, although that includes the top entry, a Netflix action-zombie-heist movie. Which shows this week had many events and releases - none more dominating of this list as HBO Max bringing back the six people who spent a decade living weird lives and drinking coffee.

Rank	Article	Class	Views	Image	Notes/about
1	Army of the Dead		1,584,244		Zack Snyder's newest film, released to Netflix on May 21, stars Dave Bautista, Ella Purnell, and a digitally-superimposed Tig Notaro. The plot's about a crew breaking into a zombie-infested Las Vegas to retrieve millions of dollars before the place is nuked, but it's also about a father reconnecting with his estranged daughter—read into that what you will.
2	Eternals (film)		1,029,757		The first trailer for this MCU film—from Nomadland director Chloé Zhao—was released on Monday. If you're wondering how an Oscar winning director makes a Marvel movie, just take it from producer Kevin Feige: We cut a little sample reel together, I remember, to show [Disney higher-ups]. And it was so beautiful, and I had to keep saying, “This is right out of a camera; there’s no VFX work to this at all!” Because it was a beautiful sunset, with perfect waves and mist coming up from the shore on this giant cliffside — really, really impressive stuff. (Variety)
3	Phil Mickelson		1,000,742		Mickelson won the 2021 PGA Championship on May 23; at the age of 50, he's the oldest person to ever win a men's major golf championships
4	Matthew Perry		989,188		In the years between Friends and The Reunion, Chandler starred in Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Mr. Sunshine, Go On, The Odd Couple, 17 Again and Fallout: New Vegas. Perry also tried to fend off the addiction to prescription pills that hit him while doing the show.
5	Eurovision Song Contest 2021		945,167		After the goddamned pandemic ensured the only Eurovision Song Contest in 2020 was the one with Will Ferrell, the music extravaganza featuring the best and most bombastic of Europe (and Australia) made a glorious return.
6	Deaths in 2021		894,293		And I walk these streets, a loaded six-string on my back I play for keeps 'cause I might not make it back
7	Mare of Easttown		819,701		Only one episode left for Kate Winslet investigating a murder!
8	Måneskin		818,137		This Italian rock band won #5 with their song "Zitti e buoni."
9	Friends: The Reunion		736,524		This special, starring the cast of the really big 90s-00s sitcom, premiered on HBO Max on Thursday. The guestlist included people that had appeared on the original series, as well as Malala, BTS, Justin Bieber, and Lady Gaga.
10	Elliot Page		716,745		Page, star of Juno and The Umbrella Academy, came out as a trans man at the end of last year. On Monday, he posted his first post-top surgery shirtless photo.
11	Jennifer Aniston		707,624		So no one told you life was gonna be this way... *clap,clap,clap,clap* One of the most beloved sitcoms ever saw its cast reunited on the same streaming service that now keeps it as an exclusive. (#9) Big views for its cast also ensued, and after the fan favorite quipster (#4) comes the show's longest, most protracted love story, Rachel and Ross. While Aniston had the most successful career out of the main six, Schwimmer's only other standout roles are a neurotic giraffe and O.J.'s defense attorney who was patriarch of the Kardashians.
12	David Schwimmer		696,895
13	Friends		660,586
14	F9 (film)		626,991		One of the many movies delayed by the pandemic got internationally released (the US only gets it in late June), and for those who joked The Fast and the Furious had to go to space, the ninth (tenth counting Hobbs & Shaw) movie delivers that!
15	Halston		625,657		A mononymous stylist played by Ewan McGregor in an eponymous Netflix series, showing Ryan Murphy might've taken a turn towards thrillers but can make shows out of them once in a while.
16	Luc Montagnier		625,222		This week in Utter Bullshit: a Facebook meme which had a fake Montagnier quote was going around recently. Montagnier never said that any who gets their COVID shot will die in 2 years; rather, he has a far more nuanced reason why COVID vaccines will kill you. One of Montagnier's other kooky COVID theories—that the virus leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology—has earned credence from the Biden administration this week, with intelligence groups being tasked with investigating the New Cold War-heating bullshit.
17	Olivia Rodrigo		622,028		Rodrigo's first album, SOUR, was released on May 21. The week before that, she released "good 4 u" as a single; it's currently at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 (a slightly more important chart than the Top 25 Report.)
18	Anya Taylor-Joy		620,712		The queen addict (to both chess and pills) from The Queen's Gambit hosted SNL on May 23. She's also starring in Edgar Wright's Last Night in Soho, which had a trailer released this past week.
19	Cruella (film)		608,472		If Maleficent wasn't enough, Disney decided to again make a live-action adaptation centered around one of its animated villainesses, namely the puppy-hating fashionista from One Hundred and One Dalmatians. Cruella hit theaters (and Disney+ for those willing to shell out an extra $30 on top of the subscription) and reviewers liked Emma Stone's performance as Cruella de Vil and how the movie is full of personality and style, even if, again, it's a questionable choice for an origin story, specially for leading to scenes like this one.
20	A Quiet Place Part II		598,434		The big release of the week all theaters closed last year is finally available! And this here writer just prays there are film screens near him again when his country gets it in mid-June, as he just can't wait to be reunited with Emily Blunt in a post-apocalyptic world dominated by beasts who hate loud noises.
21	Matt LeBlanc		561,614		One more Friends (#13) star, and one who even managed to get a spin-off for his character in Joey. And in the period before the reunion (#9), Joey Tribbiani had been the lead in Episodes and Man with a Plan, and also served as the host of Top Gear.
22	Belarus		555,895		The Belarusian government intercepted a flight in its airspace to arrest Roman Protasevich, an opposition activist that had been in exile, on May 23. Belarus's explanation: Hamas had sent an email to Minsk National Airport, threatening to blow up the plane over Vilnus if the Israel-Palestine conflict wasn't immediately resolved.
23	Eternals (comics)		490,836		Jack Kirby created those long-lived if not immortal humanoids who are set to get their own movie (#2).
24	Lisa Kudrow		479,149		Closing this list, the final Friends (#13). First, Phoebe Buffay - who when the show begun was in another NBC show, Mad About You, playing dumb waitress Ursula, who eventually was brought into Friends as Phoebe's twin - and then Monica Geller - 'owner' of the biggest gathering point (well, aside from the cafe; to wit, a Greenwich Village apartment inherited from Monica's grandma that rent control ensured she and whoever roommate could live in, no matter if in real life it'd cost a fortune!), little sister of #12, instigator of the whole show as #11 moved in with her after running from her wedding, former roommate of #24, and next-door neighbor of #21 and #4, who she married. Kudrow has kept steady work in comedies (aside from The Girl on the Train), while Cox has Cougar Town to her name (along with one of the few people Ghostface can't seem to kill).
25	Courteney Cox		465,539
