St Julian's Celebrate Becoming Quintuple Champions

San Ġiljan has achieved an unprecedented accomplishment by securing all five major honours in a single season, a remarkable achievement in the local sports scene. 

They have now added the BOV Premier Division title to their collection, along with previous victories in the Knock-Out, President’s Cup, Winter League, and Enemed Cup, making their season truly memorable.

This marks their second consecutive double victory and their third in four years, showcasing their dominant position in local water polo. San Ġiljan’s influence in the local water polo scene during the latter years of the new millennium has been undeniable.

The focal point of discussion revolves around their recent success over the Balluta Bay team, which granted them their 13th league championship in history. Their victory in the crucial match of the Play-off series, securing a 2-0 win, exemplified their determination and dominance over their fierce opponents.

Barbie has continued to achieve remarkable success, surpassing The Super Mario Bros. Movie domestically and poised to become the top-grossing film of 2023 worldwide. 

In addition to this feat, it shattered a long-standing record held by Warner Bros., overtaking Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 to become the studio’s highest-grossing film ever.

Warner Bros.’ previous record, set 12 years ago by the final Harry Potter instalment, was conquered by Barbie, led by Margot Robbie. 

The film’s global earnings exceeded $1.342 billion, securing its place as Warner Bros.’ crown jewel. Notably, Warner Bros.’ top 25 movies predominantly consist of franchise films, highlighting Barbie’s exceptional achievement as a non-franchise standout alongside movies like Inception, It, and Gravity.

Despite already setting multiple records during its theatrical run, Barbie’s journey is far from over. With on-demand releases, MAX availability, and physical home video releases in the pipeline, more records are expected to fall in the coming months. 

For Warner Bros., Barbie’s success has come as a much-needed boost after some underwhelming performances from films like The Flash.

The film’s triumph makes history for director Gerwig, marking her as the highest-grossing female director. Barbie’s recent victory over.
