Buzz In: Which Animated Movie Is Most Oscar-Worthy?
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences issued a press release today, announcing that 20 films have been submitted for Best Animated Film consideration at this year's Oscars. This means there could be five movies competing at the awards show in March. (In the history of the category, there have typically been only three.) So who is up for the honor?
What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday
Tuesday means it's time to rev up your entertainment engine with new releases in music and new DVDs to add to your Netflix queue. I've checked out today's movie offerings and have some recommendations for the movies that are worth your rental time below.
Up
This Summer's hit from Pixar is as tear-jerking as it is funny and light, and equally entertaining for kids and adults.
Blockbuster Inspired Costumes For Wee Ones
Tots will be over the moon when mama brings home the latest flick inspired costume for their trick-or-treating pleasure. It's easy enough to dress youngsters up in butterfly wings and lofty ghost sheets but their imaginations will run wild if they can act out their favorite movie character from the silver screen.
Kiddos who adore Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are will jump into the gray pajamas with glee while UP fans will find the idea of a suit and a gaggle of balloons quite enticing.
Will You See or Skip These October Movies?
As the leaves start to change colour and the nights get darker, I start to look forward to cosying up inside the cinema. This month sees the release of a good range of films to entertain us, from comedies and romances to animations, 3D re-releases and dramas, as well as two hugely anticipated movies. Click through and vote to let me know whether you'll see or skip each of these October releases.
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.
Box Office: The Proposal Sweeps Audiences Off Their Feet
The Proposal, starring Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds, took the box office by storm over the weekend earning $34.1 million and securing the No. 1 spot. This was Bullock's best opening ever!
Box Office: The Hangover Hangs On to the Top Spot
The Hangover had another fantastic weekend at the box office. The comedy came in at No. 1 with an estimated $33.4 million, and is now being called a bona fide box office phenomenon.
Up and The Hangover Have a Photo Finish at the Box Office
Adults flocked to see The Hangover over the weekend, helping the comedy earn an estimated $43.3 million. However, it wasn't quite enough to bump Pixar's family-friendly movie, Up, out of the top spot with its estimated $44.2 million. Despite coming in second place, The Hangover's debut far exceeded expectations and is "the third best opening ever for an R-rated comedy."
Which Movie Will Win This Weekend's Box Office?
Up, Pixar's box office hit, faces some competition this weekend. Family movies are often super successful, so Will Ferrell's Land of the Lost has a shot at winning the box office. Then again, there could be plenty of adults who've seen Up and now have a healthy appetite for some more adult entertainment, like The Hangover.
Is Up Now the Best Pixar Movie?
Before Wall-E hit theaters last year I asked you what your favorite Pixar movie was, and at that time there were eight to choose from (and Finding Nemo won!). Now with Wall-E having won all kinds of awards and Up being such a smash hit with audiences of all ages, I wonder if you'd change your vote.
