A Good Year For Elizabeth Banks
Among all the great entertainment in 2008, a few people clearly stood out, including the beautiful and funny Elizabeth Banks. Why was this year good for Elizabeth Banks? Because she was everywhere.
Box Office: Hellboy and Friends Kick Box Office Butt
Guillermo del Toro's Hellboy II: The Golden Army won the weekend box office with an estimated $35.9 million, not only handily beating the current competition, but also surpassing the first Hellboy's opening weekend earnings ($23.2 million). Yippee! I'm happy for that ragtag group of superheroes.
Meet Dave: I Thought It Would Be Worse
So, full disclosure: I dragged myself to this movie with the lowest of expectations. Things like Norbit and The Adventures of Pluto Nash danced through my mind and I prayed to the comedy gods to spare me a numbingly unfunny experience. I mean, I've just barely recovered from The Love Guru.

Away We Go: Happy to Come Along
Away We Go starts with a sex scene. There's no nudity, it's not overtly graphic, but it's unexpected and a bit jarring. It's certainly not the overture I was predicting.

Desperate Housewives Rundown Episode 17, "The Story of Lucy and Jessie"
A little Sapphic storyline shakes things up on Desperate Housewives this week as Susan's actions are misinterpreted by the woman she assists at the school. In other news, Lynette is having a hard time getting back into the advertising world and feels like her age (43) is working against her, Gaby is suspicious of a woman working closely with Carlos and Bree is positively infuriated by her kleptomaniac husband.

Desperate Housewives Rundown Episode 14, "Mama Spent Money When She Had None"
A reflection of the times, this week's episode of Desperate Housewives deals with the impact the economy is having (or isn't having, in some cases) on the housewives.

Ha!
