Eagle Eye Soars at Box Office

BuzzSugar — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 08:30:36 PDT

Shia LaBeouf proves he's box office gold once again with the No. 1 movie this weekend, Eagle Eye, also starring Michelle Monaghan and directed by D.J. Caruso. The action-thriller performed well with an estimated $29.2 million, making it the fourth-best September debut ever. In second place with an estimated $13. 6 million came the Nicholas Sparks tearjerker Nights in Rodanthe.

Lakeview Terrace came in third place, and to my great surprise Fireproof, starring Kirk Cameron (yes, you read that right), came in at No. 4. The Christian-themed flick narrowly beat Burn After Reading, which came in fifth. Who would have ever guessed that Mr. Cameron would join Mr. LaBeouf as two of the big stars of the weekend?

Spike Lee's World War II epic Miracle at St. Anna suffered from disappointing reviews (including my own) and paid for it at the box office, coming in at No. 9.

Recast "Growing Pains"!

BuzzSugar — Wed, 17 Jan 2007 06:00:11 PST

Ever wonder what a movie or TV show would be like if you could be the casting director? Well, every Wednesday on BuzzSugar, I'll be posting a Recast challenge, where I'll ask you to recast a classic TV show or movie for these modern times.

This week's challenge: "Growing Pains," the 1980s sitcom that will soon begin airing on Nick at Nite. Who could replicate the snarky charm of Dr. and Mrs. Seaver? What actors could play smart-aleck Mike, his sister Carol, and, of course, his friend Boner? Leave your entry us in the comment section below, and I'll pick one winner to feature next Tuesday, Jan. 23, complete with a "new" cast photo.

Characters to recast:
Dr. Jason Seaver
Maggie Seaver
Carol Seaver
Mike Seaver
Richard 'Boner' Stabone

"Growing Pains" Comes to Nick at Nite

BuzzSugar — Mon, 15 Jan 2007 07:18:45 PST

For a brief period in the '80s, "Growing Pains" was one of the coolest shows on TV. It had so many things going for it. There was the cynical but loving dad (Alan Thicke) who somehow managed to maintain patient confidentiality while running a psychiatric practice out of his home; a curly-haired smart-aleck hottie (Kirk Cameron); his sassy and exasperated sister (Tracey Gold); guest appearances by a young Leonardo DiCaprio; and, of course, a friend named Boner.

I remember the show fondly, and I've always wondered if it would hold up today. Well, I'll soon find out, because on Jan. 21, "Growing Pains" is coming to Nick at Nite. The channel will start by airing a "Growing Pains" marathon on from 9 p.m. to 1:30 a.m. on the 21st. After that, the show will air at 9 and 9:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday, at 10:30 on Saturdays, and at 9:30 on Sundays.

Now I'm starting to recall all sorts of awesome stuff about the show, including the opening-title sequence that featured the actors' actual baby photos. What do you guys remember about "Growing Pains"?
