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.

A surprise to no one (but still a delight to me, since I find this Will Smith movie to be pretty fun), Hancock won the crown at the box office over the Fourth of July holiday weekend. According to Variety, the movie "is the eighth Smith film in a row to open at No. 1 domestically, as well as his fifth — and most successful — Fourth of July outing."

The cutest robot to hit the screen in a long time, Wall-E, proved irresistible to audiences over the weekend, earning the top spot at the box office with an estimated $62.5 million. According to Variety, this is the third best opening for a Pixar film after The Incredibles ($70.5 million) and Finding Nemo ($70.2 million).
The Angelina Jolie-James McAvoy action flick Wanted nabbed the No.

A few things Wanted is not: quiet or steadily shot. It's also not all that enjoyable. But then again, I'm surely not the target audience for this film.

Just this week we got ahold of some stills from the James McAvoy/Angelina Jolie/Morgan Freeman action movie Wanted, and now there's a full-length trailer to go along with them. If nothing else, this movie is impeccably cast. Angelina does her usual catlike sexy action star thing while Morgan Freeman is all-knowing and no-nonsense.

It doesn't open until March 28, 2008 but the new photo stills from the film Wanted have piqued my interest in the film in a big way. In particular, I'm talking about this crazy image with the shattering glass and David O'Hara's face which I find to be awful and completely mesmerizing all at once.
The stills are from Empire and they feature some pretty great — and greatly attractive — actors, like James McAvoy, Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman.
