What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday
Tuesday means that new DVD releases hit up Netflix, so I've checked out the offerings to let you know which movies deserve a spot on your queue.
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
Though last year's Transformers was a fun surprise hit, I thought this Summer's sequel failed to deliver the same laughs or thrills. Reprising their roles are leading-man-in-training Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox as long-distance couple Sam and Mikaela when Sam goes off to college, only to be followed by his robot-taming legacy.
Box Office: Bruno Has the Last Laugh
It was an odd little lineup of possibilities at the box office over the weekend: a racy and squirm-inducing adult comedy, an animated prehistoric adventure for kids', some robot cars, slick gangsters, teens with crushes, some family drama, a proposal, a hangover and more. The racy comedy, Bruno, took in the most in box office sales for the weekend with $30.4 million, though Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs (in its second weekend) was close behind with $28.5 million. Bruno also experienced a 39% drop from Friday to Saturday, "indicating that most fans turned out on opening day."
Ice Age 3 and Transformers 2 Fight to Be No. 1 at the Box Office
Both Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen had stellar holiday weekends at the box office, with Ice Age taking in a record amount internationally for an animated movie and Transformers becoming "the year's domestic B.O. champ." The dinosaurs just edged out the robots, however, as Ice Age took in an estimated $67.5 million over the five day holiday weekend and Transformers ended up with $65 million.
Transformers Has a Massive Opening Weekend
Michael Bay's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen earned a five-day opening gross of $201.2 million, easily taking the top spot at the weekend's box office. The sequel nearly beat the best five-day opening of all time, The Dark Knight, which earned $203.8 million. Second place went to The Proposal, followed by The Hangover in the third spot.
Megan Gets a Little Help Finding Her Rose Boy
Megan Fox stood out in bright colors as she stopped by Live With Regis and Kelly today to film her appearance airing tomorrow. Transformers 2 is already raking it in at the box office and for better or worse Megan's sexy portrayal in the film is sure to help, even if most of you don't think she's the next Angelina Jolie. Her costar Shia made a fan's day this morning, and Megan might have a chance to do the same.
Guess Which Transformers 2 Actor Said It?
My dad and my mom were both artists who never found an audience for their artwork. And so I lived in poverty. Now that I'm not poor, I know that is what it was.
Does Michael Bay's Portrayal of Women Bug You?
It's no secret that Michael Bay loves to put extremely sexy women in his movies. When it comes to the Transformers movies, though, the gratuitous way he shoots Megan Fox seems a bit over-the-top, even for him.
Bay recently told reporters that it's "for the young boys" and Fox says says the treatment of women as sexual objects in film is part of what must be done "if you want to make movies that people want to see."
Transformers 2: Schlock and Awe
The truth is, no matter what I or anyone else says about Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, audiences around the globe will flock to see it. I mean, duh — it's big, it's shiny, it goes boom, and it has boobs. It's just what the doctor ordered for audiences looking for some good old-fashioned Hollywood escapism just when it's getting too hot to use our brains.
Megan Sizzles in White on Shia's Arm at Transformers in LA
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen finally had its big LA premiere last night ahead of the movie's release tomorrow. Sexy in white Megan Fox and Shia LaBeouf were once again attached at the hip on the red carpet. Michael Bay may have been ready to pitch a fit about the sequel's promotional budget, but Shia and Megan have been making sure all eyes are on them as they brought it around the world.
Megan and Shia Hit the Blue Carpet in London
The cast of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen brought their posing skills to London today for the film's UK premiere. Supposedly single Megan Fox cozied up to Shia LaBeouf, while their co-star Josh Duhamel smiled for the cameras solo. The cast has had a packed week as they bring their movie all over the world, from Asia on to Europe, and they'll soon be back stateside before it comes out in the US next Friday.
