Box Office Weekend: The Family Can’t Whack Insidious Chapter 2
Unlike Lee Daniels’ The Butler, Riddick will not be enjoying three weeks at the top of the box office. In only its second week, the Vin Diesel sci-fi thriller got knocked to third place with an estimated $7 million. In its place, Insidious Chapter 2 rallied the box office to spooky effect, bringing in an estimated $41.1 million. Even with critics claiming it is nowhere near as effective as the ori...[Read More]
The Five Things We Want to See from Ben Affleck as Batman
As the resident Batman CinemaNerd (as evidenced here, here, here, and here), it’s been a pretty exciting couple of movie weeks for me. First, Ben Affleck gets cast in the new Superman vs. Batman film; then it’s revealed that the movie will be filmed in the Detroit area – all great news for any Batfan living in Michigan like me.

Box Office Weekend: Riddick Kicks Butler (from the top spot)
Three weeks is a long time to hold onto the top spot in the movie business, but all good things must come to an end. Lee Daniels’ The Butler came in second with an estimated $8.9 million, a far cry from the top winner, Riddick, which took first with an estimated $18.7 million. Even so, Riddick led a slow post-Labor Day weekend, and it could not manage to make back its relatively low $38 million co...[Read More]

The Ten Most Anticipated Movies of Fall 2013
The summer passed by quickly didn’t it? Remember when we were wondering whether Star Trek Into Darkness would be any good? Spoiler: It was. Or whether The Lone Ranger would be an uncontested box office champion? Another spoiler: It wasn’t.
