1408
Just in time for scary movie season, Stephen King's summer sleeper hit 1408 is coming out on DVD!
"Evan" is Almighty at the Weekend Box Office
Not only can Steve Carell get animals to board an ark — he can also entice people to go to the movies. Carell's Evan Almighty took the No. 1 spot at the weekend box office, bumping The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer from its temporary throne.
Which Movie Will Be No. 1 at the Box Office This Weekend?
While there are several new releases coming out this weekend (Evan Almighty, A Mighty Heart, 1408, and others), it's hard to say if any of them will definitely knock The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer off of its box office throne. What do you think?
Which Movie Will Be No.
Box Office: Silver Surfer Rides to No. 1
This weekend the Fantastic Four sequel, Rise of the Silver Surfer, "flamed on" to take the top slot at the box office, raking in an impressive $57.4 million. This just beats the first Fantastic Four movie's opening weekend which brought in $56 million last year.
In second place was Ocean's Thirteen with $19 million while Knocked Up followed behind at No.
The Original Fantastic Four
The Fantastic Four movie that came out before this summer's Rise of the Silver Surfer made some money in the box office, but was given pretty bad reviews.
As poorly as those reviews may have been, though, it fared much better than this even earlier Fantastic Four movie did, despite its stellar cast and super-impressive special effects (sarcasm alert). I dug this photo up on Wikipedia, and I'm so glad I did.
Which of the Fantastic Four's Powers Would You Want?
This Friday, the Fantastic Four sequel, Rise of the Silver Surfer, hits theaters to provide audiences with a fun, silly, summertime computer-animated treat.

New Trailer for the Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
This sequel to the first Fantastic Four movie finds the superheroes battling the Silver Surfer, a liquidy metallic guy who can change matter and who apparently "eats planets." According to this new trailer, "Everywhere this thing goes, eight days later, the planet dies." So, it's going to be a challenge taking care of this surfer dude.

Oscar Nominee: Milk For Best Costume Design
As we gear up for the Oscars, I'll be featuring the nominees for Best Costume Design. It's a big year for this category as the films nominated represent vastly different historical periods. Be it 18th-century England or San Francisco in the '70s, these films include some gorgeous threads.
