Steve Brill to Fanboys Fanboys: Up Yours, Biotch!
You know, I don’t even plan on seeing “Fanboys” (I’m not that big a Star Wars fan, even though I love sci-fi, but Star Wars just doesn’t do it for me), but man, this whole hullabaloo about what’s going on with the Weinsteins and the movie “Fanboys” (and their fanboys) — more details about the [...]

Okay, so he’s the maker of bad, bad, really bad movies based on videogames. How one man can love videogames so much (the dude is, like, in his ’40s!) to make so many movies based on videogames is a mystery I don’t think anyone can really answer, and I doubt if the man himself knows. [...]

You can’t keep a good CGI elephant down. For the second straight week, the Jim Carrey-voiced “Dr. Seuss’ Horton Hears a Who” was tops at the U.S. box office, taking in $25 million in its second week of release, for a total of $86 million in just two weeks. And proving that Tyler Perry’s unfathomable [...]

Anthony Minghella only had eight films to his credit in an eighteen year career, but he sure made the most of it. Counting among his credits were Oscar winners “The English Patient” and “Cold Mountain”. In 2008 alone, Minghella had three films in the pipe — one completed, one in production, and a third announced. [...]

Who? Horton, that’s who. The Jim Carrey CGI-animated movie “Dr. Seuss’ Horton Hears A Who” took the box office over the weekend with $45 million. Not bad for a movie budgeted at $85 million, and produced by an animation company not called “Pixar”. I guess blatant (though funny) cross-promotions with American Idol didn’t hurt, either. [...]

The reviews weren’t kind (as expected), but Roland Emmerich’s “10,000 B.C.” nonetheless ruled at the box office in its opening weekend, taking in $35.7 million at the U.S. box office, which is about on par with industry expectations. The (not really) historical epic also opened worldwide in 20 countries, where it landed at the #1 [...]

Will Ferrell’s still got the magic touch — sort of. Yes, his basketball comedy “Semi-Pro” took first place in its opening debut at the box office. That’s the good news. The bad news is that it only earned a disappointing $15 million. What’s so bad about that? Because Ferrell’s previous two comedies, “Talledega Nights” and [...]

It’s official: most of America kinda don’t really give a friggin’ damn about the Oscars. Then again, when you give a statuette to “The Golden Compass” for best special effects over “Transformers”, you sorta deserve it, don’t you? According to Nielsens, the 2008 Oscars was the lowest rated Oscars telecast in Oscars history, even beating [...]

American moviegoers love it when you shoot a sitting President and then put a conspiracy behind it, thus the Dennis Quaid political actioner “Vantage Point” took first place at the box office with a healthy $24 million, not bad a for movie that didn’t really open with any real buzz. The weekend’s only other opening [...]

The 80th Annual (aka the 2008) Oscars will be televised live later tonight on ABC, 5:00 PT/8:00 ET, and unless you have something better to do, you’ll probably end up watching it on and off. Personally, I got a Rockets game to keep me occupied, so I’ll probably tune in when the whole thing is [...]
