Evan Peters (American Horror Story, One Tree Hill) has joined the cast of X-Men: Days of Future Past. According to Bryan Singer, he’s playing Quicksilver. In the comics, Quicksilver is the son of Magneto, and the brother of Scarlet Witch. It will be interesting to see how he works into the overall plot of the movie, given that both Ian McKellan and Michael Fassbender are returning. Whose son is he? Continue reading Meet Quicksilver!
Last night, Hangover 3 managed to do 3.1 million in midnight shows across the country. That’s down from the previous Hangover, as well as The Great Gatsby earlier this summer, and of course Iron Man 3. Trouble ahead for the wolf pack? At a brisk 1 hr and 40 minutes, Hangover is hoping that more showtimes means more box office, as it battles against longer shows with less showtimes. Continue reading Midnight Box Office: Hangover III pulls in 3.1 in midnight shows
Forbes released the list of the 100 most powerful women, and some names popped up from Hollywood. Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Angelina Jolie, Sofia Vergara, Amy Pascal (Sony), Lady Gaga, Anne Sweeney (Disney/ABC), Shakira, Diane Sawyer, JK Rowling, and Beyonce Knowles all made the cut. I’m a little surprised about Sofia and Shakira, but most lists like this are always semi-arbitrary. Here’s the full list: Angela Merkel, Chancellor, Germany Dilma Rousseff, President, Brazil Melinda Gates, Cochair, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Michelle Obama, First Lady, United States Hillary Clinton, Personality, Philanthropist Sheryl Sandberg, COO, Facebook Christine Lagarde, Managing Director, International … Continue reading Forbes 2013 100 Most Powerful Women- The Hollywooders

Memorial Day weekend is upon us, and Hollywood is trying to attack you with two brand new sequels to some high-profile franchises, as well as a kids cartoon that could do really well with a complete lack of competition. 1) Fast and Furious 6- 87M Weekend, 87M total Fast Five opened a few years back, in April, and managed about the same box office. However, Fast Five didn’t open the same weekend as a Hangover sequel, and the second weekend of Star Trek. Granted, the buzz for Fast and Furious 6 is incredibly high (it even has a positive score … Continue reading Box Office Predictions- May 24th-26th
The newest trailer for The Wolverine, coming this July. This trailer will run in front of Fast and Furious 6 Continue reading The Wolverine- New Trailer
1) Star Trek: Into Darkness- 70.5 weekend, 84.0 total These are interesting times when a 70.5 opening can be considered a disappointment for the Star Trek franchise. That’s because the film was overhyped, and projected initially to do 100M over four days. This is still a strong opening, and regardless of how you feel about the sequel, it’s on track to break 200M, easily. This next week adds some incredibly fierce competition that will knock it down a few pegs, and will set the tone for a more stable final prediction. Right now, I’m guessing somewhere around 240M, but I … Continue reading Weekend Box Office- May 17th-19th

Now that all the major networks have announced their lineups, here’s a look at each night, and a prediction of what’s going to happen. SUNDAY: 8PM: Once Upon A Time (ABC), The Amazing Race (CBS), Football (NBC), The Simpsons/Bobs Burgers (FOX) Football draws the largest audience, obviously. I expect Once Upon A Time to continue to lead in the scripted area. 9PM: Revenge (ABC), The Good Wife (CBS), Football (NBC), Family Guy/American Dad (FOX) Revenge used to be ahead of The Good Wife, but has been dipping a lot recently. I expect The Good Wife to come out on top … Continue reading Fall TV Preview: Night By Night Comparison
This is just a quick review of a show I checked out recently, Rectify. It’s the first effort at a scripted series from The Sundance Channel (which is owned by AMC). Rectify stars Aden Young as Daniel Holden, a man recently released from prison after 19 years on death row, after DNA testing exonerates him. His sister Amantha (Abigail Spener) was always a strong supporter of her brother’s innocence. His mom Janet (J. Smith-Cameron) is glad to have her son back. Since then, she’s married Ted Sr. (Bruce McKinnon), and inherited his son Ted Jr. (Clayne Crawford) and his wife … Continue reading Rectify
