Box Office: Hudson and McConaughey Strike Gold
The chemistry between Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey proved lucrative once again as their comedy, Fool's Gold, won the top spot at the box office over the weekend, earning $22 million. Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins, starring Martin Lawrence and Cedric the Entertainer, came in No. 2 grossing $17 million, followed by Disney's super tween 3-D concert experience Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour in the third spot.
First Look: The Eye
This creepy wordless teaser trailer for the remake of Asian horror movie The Eye finds Jessica Alba playing a blind woman who gets her vision back. However, with her newfound sight she has also acquired the ability to see horrible supernatural things. The teaser makes the movie seem pretty scary, though utilizing quick edits, flashing creepy things and making the entire thing without any dialogue at all would probably make a lot of things seem scary.
What's Buzzworthy: Most Thrilling Thrillers
With the wave of thrillers out in the movie theaters these days, I made last week's Buzzworthy bookmarking challenge all about past thrillers that have successfully scared you silly — in a good way, of course. To get you started, I mentioned some of my favorites, like The Usual Suspects and the ever-chilling Psycho. The ones that you bookmarked are equally creepy, so if none of the current thriller options are striking your fancy, here are many more options for a spooky night at home.Can Jessica Change Her Image With The Eye?
I tend to think of Jessica Alba as one of those actresses who's just famous for being hot. Apparently, Alba knows that and wants to lose the label, starting with her role in The Eye, a remake of a 2002 Hong Kong film. In the thriller, Alba plays a blind violinist who gets a eye transplant that gives her special powers.

The Blind Side: An Unexpected Delight
It's not that the trailer for The Blind Side isn't compelling; the problem is that it combines Sandra Bullock's twangiest, most-over-the top lines with a heartrending song, which makes it seem schlocky. That's exactly what I expected from the movie, but I have to admit that I was wrong — to my surprise, I found it to be a sentimental gem that's actually quite restrained.
The Blind Side is the true story (based on Michael Lewis's book) of NFL player Michael Oher, who grew up in Memphis's projects with his drug-addicted mother and landed in and out of foster homes.
The Office, "Shareholder Meeting": Best Lines of the Night
Looks like The Office is trying for a little economic relevance. While it sort of knocks you over the head this week — e.g. showing the Dow Jones sign — you can't blame the writers for making the story timely.
New Moon: Better Than Twilight
Let's be honest: for most of you, it doesn't matter what I — or any critics for that matter — have to say about New Moon, the incredibly anticipated sequel to last year's Twilight. The film started breaking box office records before it was even released, and audiences will flock to the theaters for weeks to come. On the plus side, a ticket to New Moon is a win even if you're not a Twihard — provided that you know what you're getting into.
Glee-ful Highlights and Video From Episode "Ballad"
Maybe it's because Glee set the bar so high last week, or maybe it's the lack of Sue, but this week's episode just didn't do it for me. There are plenty of catchy tunes, but Rachel's all-of-a-sudden crush on Mr. Schue seems a bit forced, and it seems ridiculous that Will and Emma are best buddies again with no mention of their dramatic encounters from a few weeks ago.
It does have some touching moments (along with some sad ones) for Finn and Quinn, so to get into it just read more
Talking New Moon With Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene
Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner may be dominating the promotional circuit right now, but they're not the only cast members with something to say about New Moon. I had the opportunity to chat with costars Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene, aka Emmett and Alice Cullen, during their recent stopover in SF. They chatted about their characters, the vampire craze, and what it's like to be a "Twilight celebrity."
Desperate Housewives Rundown, "The Coffee Cup"
Some shows bring out big guest stars for November sweeps, but Desperate Housewives is getting back in touch with its sexy side instead. Susan tries to set a new record with Mike while Bree narrowly escapes an Orson interruption when she's with Karl. Meanwhile, Lynette's pregnancy secret is finally out and Nick Bolen continues to be creeptastic all over town.
