Paris Hilton’s The Hottie and the Nottie: Worst Movie Ever?
The Hottie and the Nottie, a horrid-looking movie starring Paris Hilton, not only tanked in the box office after opening on Fri Feb 8th, but it also has been voted the worst movie in history, by IMDB users. In fact, several of her movies have. I’m wondering if the producers of Showtime’s The L Word [...]
Star Trek XI Stuck in the Transporter: Release Pushed to 2009
Variety reports that Star Trek XI, helmed by JJ Abrams of Lost and Cloverfield fame, is being pushed from Dec 25 of this year to May 8, 2009. The reasoning is that it’ll do better in the box office as a summer release. This is of course hugely disappointing to those of us that feel [...]

WGA Strike Officially Over; Contract Needs Ratifying
Striking WGA writers have voted and over 90% favored ending the strike that has been going on for over three months. This has left consumers without new TV shows, played havoc with movie productions, ruined some peripherally related business, and caused many millions of dollars in income loss for industry members. (Writers lost about US$285M [...]

The list of names are as follows: Ben Barnes, who plays Prince Caspian in the upcoming The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008) movie sequel to The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, as well as [...]
Jessica Simpson Sets Box-Office Record
Typically, it’s a good thing to set – or break – a record. Not in Jessica Simpson’s case, unfortunately. Her latest film, Blond Ambition, of which Luke Wilson was the co-star, only made $1,190. It may have been only shown in 8 theaters in Texas, but that’s still pretty bad. Maybe that’ll improve later. One [...]
“National Treasure” Is a Box Office Treasure
National Treasure: Book of Secrets came in first in the box office this weekend, grossing $34.2 million. I really wanted to see that. It sure looks good. I Am Legend continued its amazing streak, grossing $34.2 million, and Alvin and the Chipmunks ranked third with $29 million. Nicolas Cage should be thrilled, as this weekend [...]
Johnny Depp in “Sweeney Todd”
Johnny Depp may very well be one of the hottest men in the world, and we already know he’s a good-spirited autograph giver. Pirates of the Caribbean proved he’ll do just about anything, and Sweeney Todd has taught us something else about this incredibly amazing man: he can sing. The thing I love about Depp [...]
A Legend in the Box Office
I Am Legend starring Will Smith as Dr. Robert Neville, showed what can happen with films people want to see: Records are broken and Legends are set. I Am Legend grossed $76.5 million, which is more than has been made by any film (ever) opening in December. Alvin and The Chipmunks came in second with [...]
On The Big Screen: The Golden Compass
When I was much younger, I read Philip Pullman’s The Golden Compass (and the rest of the series) and loved it. I was expecting the same sort of love when I saw the movie. The Golden Compass fell short of my expectations, and my boyfriend fell asleep. The bear-fight scene was awesome, though. And even [...]
