Oh, those wacky Mainland Chinese. If they’re not doing something silly like banning the innocuous “Rush Hour 3″ for daring to have Chinese villains, they’re banning Hollywood, period.

To absolutely no one’s surprise, “Beowulf” continued its strong Friday showing by taking the 3-day weekend box office with a combined $28, enough to give it king of the hill status.

JLA Update: Superman, Batman, and Green Lantern May Have Been Cast

I love the idea of a Justice League of America movie (or whatever they end up calling it, probably minus the “America” part, Hollywood being what it is), but nothing I’ve seen or heard about the movie so far — including all those script “leaks”, the decision to make a man in his ’60s the [...]

He … is … Beowulf! Or at least he’ll be Beowulf this weekend at the box office. The CGI/A-list movie will be hitting theaters over the weekend with plenty of sound and fury and heavy advertisements behind it, practically guaranteeing it the top spot.
