In what proved to be the interesting winner of the #1 slot at this weekend’s boxoffice, Ben Stiller-driven Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian conquered pole position, finishing the super-sized holiday weekend with an estimated $70 million. Smithsonian marks Stiller’s biggest live-action opening, topping the $46.1 million earned opening weekend for 2004’s Meet The Fockers (this movie is too funny – you must catch if you haven’t already). The first installment of Museum opened in December 2006 with $30.4 million, going on to gross an enviable $251 million domestically. (...) Continue Reading →.

Love muffins, did any of you see the highly-anticipated prequel to the X-Men series, X-Men Origins: Wolverine yet? Some of the reviews have been less than stellar, but the release of this movie yesterday is significant because it marks the beginning of the summer blockbuster season. All I have to say is that Ryan Reynolds is definitely one of my future baby daddys in the flick.

I don’t know, I wasn’t really feeling it…wasn’t that impressed. Thoughts?

Next up: Star Trek on May 8th. Who’s dying to see this one??

Love muffins, despite the downtrodden tone of the country in the midst of the current economic crisis we’re in, Americans this summer will have plenty of options at their local movie houses to choose from to take themselves out of their fiscal foolery – at least for a couple of hours.

Here is a breakdown of the films you can expect to see this summer. It’s really a mixed bag, and I’m sure you’ll find a couple that you’ll be willing to throw down that $12.75 for…or in some cases $14 for (anyone familiar with the Arclight theatre in Hollywood??). (...) Continue Reading →.

Summer may just be here, y’all. Well, at least in terms of the U.S. box office. In the year’s biggest surprise thus far (and what may be the biggest surprise in a while), Fast & Furious has opened at number one at the North American box office with $72.5 million in receipts. Now, this number breaks all kinds of records – let me just break it down for you:

- Best April opening ever, beating Anger Management’s $42.2 million.
- Best Universal Pictures opening ever (three-day), beating The Lost World: Jurassic Park’s $72.1 million.
- Best F&F franchise opening ever, beating 2 Fast 2 Furious’ $50.5 million.
- Best opening yet in 2009, easily beating the bows of the more-buzzed-about Monsters vs. Aliens ($59.3 million) and Watchmen ($55.2 million).
- Best opening ever for stars Diesel, Paul Walker, Michelle Rodriguez, and Jordana Brewster, as well as for director Justin Lin.
- Best opening ever for a car-themed movie! (Beating Cars’ $60.1 million.

Dreamworks Animation 3-D adventure, Monsters Vs. Aliens landed in the number one spot over the weekend with $58.2 million.

The Nicholas Cage-driven, Knowing, tops this weekend’s box office, earning $24.8 million domestically. Paramount’s R-rated I Love You, Man starring Quincy Jones’ celebuspan, Rashida Jones, racked up $18 million to land in second place. The Julia Roberts-Clive Owen powered film, Duplicity, opened below expectations in third with $14.4 million despite its high-profile cast and glowing reviews.

Disney’s latest family adventure film, Race To Witch Mountain, decreased a modest 47% in sales from its opening weekend for a total of $13 million. Comic book-based Watchmen drew up $6.7 million in business to bring its cume to $98.1 million.

Final box office figures will be released today. (...) Continue Reading →.

Love muffins, Watchmen crowned this weekend’s box office with $55.7 million – far lower than industry expectations. Director Zack Snyder’s 300 opened with $70.0 million in March 2007 – a number Watchmen was expected to surpass. What’s more disappointing is that Watchmen opened in 3,611 theaters – the largest number for an R-rated move, ever!

In the number two spot is Terry Perry’s Madea Goes to Jail with $8.8 million and $76.5 million, total. Love muffins, this is Tyler Perry’s biggest-grossing movie to date and it’s for good reason – it’s funny! Go see it and get your laugh on.

Liam Neeson’s Taken rang up $7.5 million over the weekend, bringing it to $118 million. In the fourth spot is Slumdog Millionaire, still riding high after the Oscars with $6.9 million and $125.4 million domestically. Rounding out the top five was Paul Blart: Mall Cop with $4.2 million, and $133.6 total.

Here’s a look at the estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Media By Numbers LLC. Final figures will be released Monday. (...) Continue Reading →.

I am super duper excited to hear that the sequel (New Moon) to Twilight will hit theaters November 20, 2009 after it was previously mentioned that the movie would not be seen in movie theaters until 2010. The books are great and so is the movie – a timely love story between a vampire and his mortal companion. Did you all make your way to see the movie?

Take a look at the trailer for Underworld: Rise Of The Lycans in HQ. I am a fan of the series, so hopefully the third movie will not disappoint. The prequel to the first movie, Underworld, will hit theaters in 2009. Are you excited?

I saw Beverly Hills Chihuahua over the weekend, and I am excited that it came in at #1 at the box office. The movie was fun for the whole family. A Chihuahua (Drew Berrymoore) from Beverly Hills takes a trip to Mexico with her babysitter (Piper Perabo), but gets lost while her babysitter and friends go out clubbing. Of course you can already expect the pampered pooch to get into a ton of mess, but she gets out of trouble with the help of a German Shepherd. She doesn’t realize it yet, but the love of her life sets out to rescue her from the dangers of the world. This is an amazingly cute movie.

Alright love muffins I don’t know if you can’t wait for it, but I can’t. That’s right, the new Notorious B.I.G. movie that is coming out on January 16, 2009. In this trailer I see they have Faith Evans, Lil Kim, and Charli Baltimore being portrayed. I wonder if it’s going to show any smackdowns that they may have had over Biggie. Are many of you going to pack the theaters when this comes out?

Visit ET at 6:30pm (PST), 9:30pm ( EST) for ET’s Live Stream from the red carpet!

Here is the new trailer from Kim Kardashian’s new movie Disaster Movie. The trailer didn’t seem all that funny too me. Maybe the movie will be much better. I doubt it. I actually thought Meet The Spartans was going to be funny, but I was so wrong! Thoughts?

Love muffins, the trailer for the latest Harry Potter movie has just surfaced. I will tell you this right now, B. Scott will be all in the theater chomping down popcorn while watching Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince! Will you?

Mamma Mia:
I had the opportunity to watch Mamma Mia at a private screening before the movie was released last week. This romantic comedy was interesting to watch besides the fact that I cringed at hearing most of the actors/actresses sing. When everyone was not messing up the ABBA hits, the movie was rather enjoyable. Amanda Seyfried’s character decides to get married and wants her father to give her away, however there are three men who are possibly her daddy. If that isn’t juicy drama, then I don’t know what is. (...) Continue Reading →.

Hellboy II: The Golden Army:
My friend begged me to go with her to see Hellboy II: The Golden Army, but I was extremely tired. However, I did what any good friend would do – I placed a hot towel over my face to wake me up and sipped on some tea. The lines were packed no doubt with kids screaming, “Mommy I want Gummy Bears”. I yawned several times while awaiting for my popcorn and drink, and when we finally made it to the room where the film was just starting to play, all the lights were dim. I could barely see when walking to an empty seat. Within fifteen minutes of the movie, I couldn’t help but nod off. Then I awoke abruptly when I heard some trollop snoring extremely loud making me feel all discombobulated! Then I realized that trollop was me. (...) Continue Reading →.
