I Propose You See The Proposal

So yesterday I went to the second showing at my local theater of the new Sandra Bullock flick, The Proposal and when I left the theater I was all smiles.  I thoroughly enjoyed the movie.  Then, I got to thinking about why I enjoyed it so much.  I could easily just leave it as the [...]


THE Proposal is Coming!

I am SUPER excited about this one.  Why?  Well, for starters I just love Sandra Bullock, especially as a comedic actress.  In a scene, her comic timing is usually point on!  Looking back at her film history, I can honestly say there hasn’t been a film that I thought she bombed in.  I guess you [...]


Go Ahead and Laugh - It’s The Hangover Talking

Once again, I am blessed to share the spotlight (so to speak) with a Guest Blogger but this one is no ordinary guest blogger.  As a matter of fact, starting next week, this young lady will be my partner in crime on The REEL Box Office Buzz!  More about that later.
My good friend, Michelle, [...]


Up, Up, and Away to Animation Genius!

Hello, Everyone!  I have a guest blogger today.  My friend, Scott Ellis, is a multimedia designer and a fan of really good movies so much so that I asked him if he wouldn’t mind being a Guest Blogger to review the latest Disney Pixar release (that’s getting all the critical nods it apparently deserves), Up.

Angels and Demons Released

And no, I don’t mean “angels” and “demons” are being released.  Rather, the FILM starring Tom Hanks, Angels and Demons is debuting this weekend.  The summer blockbuster race has begun!  With Wolverine and Star Trek already making their presence well-known having debuted to high box office numbers, the question is - will Angels knock Trek [...]


Star Trek - a Trek You’ll Want to Take

First off, let me just say for the record I am NOT a Trekkie.  I repeat, I am NOT a Trekkie.  So, why did I go see yet another version of the television series from the 60’s?  Well, to be honest, the trailer got me and then upon finding out that J.J. Abrams (television’s Lost) [...]


Hannah Montana Vs Fast - Who Will Come Out On Top This Easter Weekend?

Last week, Fast and Furious blew away the box office taking in a whopping $71M.  With a production budget of just under $85M, the film is on track to make exceed all expectations.  Close behind grossing $33M in box office sales was Parmount’s Monsters Vs Aliens.  Not bad for either film, huh?  And then comes [...]

Set in Clayton, North Carolina, the film is the story of the impact of a covered bridge, built a half-century ago by a man as a tribute to his dying wife, has on a community.  The twist at the end puts life in perspective for many in the town suffering from life challenges.
That is the [...]


How Will Hollywood Do in 2009?

It’s anybody’s guess.  Really.  Considering that 2007 ended with a Writer’s Strike prompting 2008 to start off a bit on the slow side and with a potential actor’s strike looming on the horizon as 2009 begins, who knows what the effects will bring?
Today was supposed to be the day a strike authorization ballot was to be cast [...]

So, with the holiday season upon us, Hollywood usually reserves this weekend to usher [...]
