Memorable Moments from the Unmemorable Academy Awards
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Awards, Celeb News
Last night’s Best Actor categories were as predictable as the Best Actress races were surprising. Yesterday’s ceremony was also as disappointing as it was routine.
For months now, we’d been hearing about several plans being orchestrated for the Academy Awards. If the writers’ strike was still in effect, the producers swore the telecast would continue with packages that celebrated Oscar’s 80-year history. Interestingly enough, even with the scribes back at work, the show was still horribly written and crammed with unnecessary fillers. (Even I could have penned ‘the always Fantastic…Jessica Alba’.)
As it was, the winners appeared to have been given less time last night to accept their awards than ever. (Which may or may not have been a good thing.) But did Javier Bardem really need to rush his lovely speech to his mother? Did the organizers have to reshow the previous awards presentations? Did the AMPAS President really need to waste time explaining how the selection process is done??

Box Office Breakdown: Jumper Leaps to #1
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: 20th Century Fox, Disney, Fox Searchlight, Paramount, Universal, Warner Bros, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Drama, Family, Music, Romance, Science Fiction, Sequels, Comedy, Box Office, Lists, New Releases
This President’s Day weekend, a good number of theatergoers honored their country’s leaders by taking in a showing of Jumper. The sci-fi film, starring Hayden Christensen and Jamie Bell, took in approximately $27.3 million and earned itself a first place berth. Although the gross did not break any holiday records, the movie did put about $8 million between itself and its nearest competitor (The Spiderwick Chronicles).
Third place-finisher, Step Up 2 the Streets, also had something to brag about this weekend. The dance spectacle averaged $7,655 per screen, just behind Jumper’s $7,980 figure. The other eight films had to settle for $5000 or less.

Box Office Breakdown: Hudson and McConaughey Strike Gold
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: 20th Century Fox, Disney, Fox Searchlight, Lionsgate, Paramount, Universal, Warner Bros, Action, Adaptation, Drama, Horror, Musicals, Mystery, Romance, Satire, Sequels, Comedy, Thrillers, Box Office, Lists, New Releases
Fool’s Gold, the latest joint venture for Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey, debuted at the top of the charts this weekend with $21 million. (When that total is worthy of a first place finish, you know times were slow.) This marks the second time the pair opened in the $20 million dollar range; 2003’s How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days started at $23.8 million.
Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins was the only other new entry in this weekend’s Top Ten. The Martin Lawrence comedy grossed $16 million over the three days pushing Hannah Montana into third place. The 3-D concert, though, had the stronger per screen average ($14,987).

Box Office Breakdown: Hannah Montana Humiliates Her Elders
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: 20th Century Fox, Disney, Fox Searchlight, Lionsgate, Paramount, Sony, Warner Bros, Action, Adaptation, Drama, Family, Horror, Music, Romance, Satire, Sequels, Comedy, Thrillers, Box Office, Lists, New Releases
It’s now time for the entertainment industry to take notice: a 15-year-old girl has officially become the hottest thing thing around. Miley Cyrus already had a hit TV series (Hannah Montana) and a sold-out concert tour, but now she has a record-breaking movie as well.
The limited run of her 3-D film, Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour, made waves on what is usually considered a slow weekend for movies. (Audiences are usually plopped in front of the TV watching the Super Bowl.) The pic earned over $31 million, surpassing the total set by 1998’s Titanic during the same football weekend. (That weeper grossed $25.2 million.) Miley also rocked a stellar $45,560 per screen average. In comparison, this week’s #2 (The Eye), earned $40,000 less per theater. Fortunately, those unable to snag a Montana ticket now have their chance. The wildly successful film has been extended indefinitely.

Box Office Breakdown: Rambo Outgunned by Spartans
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: 20th Century Fox, Buena Vista, Disney, Fox Searchlight, Lionsgate, Paramount, Sony, Warner Bros, Action, Adaptation, Drama, Horror, Satire, Sequels, Comedy, Thrillers, Box Office, Lists, New Releases
Although Sylvester Stallone was hoping to end the Rambo series on an up note, it appears the actor/writer/director will just have to settle for second place. Many had expected the fourth installment would come away with the weekend’s spoils, unfortunately the aging action hero was overpowered by a group of toga-clad warriors.
It should be said though that Meet the Spartans had an extremely narrow victory. The spoof of 2007’s 300 edged out the action flick by just $300,000. But a win is still a win, right? The satire also had the best per screen average of any movie in the Top Ten ($7104).
