Cher Lands Two New Jobs: Burlesque and Zookeeper
I was just talking about ladies above a certain age landing more roles and today there are two pieces of news that make me feel like someone was listening. We haven't seen Cher on the silver screen in years, and now she has landed not one but two interesting movie roles.
First she will be joining Christina Aguilera in the movie musical Burlesque.
What Would Be Your Comedy Dream Team?
No, no — this lineup here is definitely not my comedy dream team. It is, however, the main cast of a new, untitled project written by Adam Sandler. Kevin James, Chris Rock, David Spade and Rob Schneider will join Sandler in a comedy which follows "five best friends from high school who reunite 30 years later on a Fourth of July weekend."
Box Office: Audiences Find Paul Blart Arresting
Over a weekend that produced way higher box office returns than expected, the Kevin James comedy Paul Blart: Mall Cop was the big winner, debuting to the tune of $33.8 million. This is just counting the Friday-Sunday box office, and studios will rake in even more on the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday.
Across the board, the box office for this holiday weekend is up 31% over last year (and again, this is just Friday-Sunday).

I Now Pronounce You Unfunny & Misguided
Note: My buddy Molly wrote this review because I was unable to attend the screening for the movie. Thanks, Molly!
I understand what I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry was getting at.
Do You Think I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry Seems Offensive?
This Friday, Adam Sandler's latest movie I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry opens nationwide, and I have to say that when I first saw the trailer I had my reservations. It seems like a lot of the laughs in this movie are based in gay stereotypes and in generally making a mockery of homosexuality. Yet the filmmakers claim they did their best to be sensitive to that.
TV Tonight: "The King of Queens" Finale
I can't say I've ever been a fan of "The King of Queens," but I have to give it a little credit: Any show that can manage to stay on the air for nine years in today's brutal television climate must be doing something right. The CBS comedy is signing off tonight with a one-hour series finale, and with divorce talk and a botched wedding in the plans, it looks like the show will give its fans a worthy final episode. Were you a fan?
