It was able to knock off "Iron Man 3" at the top of the box office pile but wasn't able to hit the early projections. In fact, one could easily say "Star Trek Into Darkness" underperformed.
|
|
This is a crucial week for one movie. No, not “Iron Man 3” or “Star Trek Into Darkness," which boldly opens today. That film is “The Great Gatsby.”
|
|
With "The Great Gatsby" having a great opening weekend, it wasn't enough to stop the power of "Iron Man 3." But, the box office benefits in a big way as the top two films raked it in and sent the summer box office season sailing.
|
|
While not being released on the same day, it can not be a good thing for "The Great Gatsby" to play against the still strong "Iron Man 3."
|
|
It wasn't as big as "The Avengers" but it did beat "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2." It would be "Iron Man 3" with a box office haul of $175 million. It completely dwarfed the competition.
|
|
It looks like the midnight showings of "Iron Man 3" did not match "The Avengers." But wait, that sentence doesn't come to close to telling the whole story.
|
|
It will be a big box office when this report is updated, to say the least. That statement is a no-brainer, but how much will "Iron Man 3" take in will be tracked but it is already raking it in overseas.
|
|
It can be said that the heyday of soap operas are behind us. Those days when the shows were actually sponsored by soap companies, hence the name.

New York -
Cindy Lauper was having fun as the 67th Annual Tony Award nominations were announced today (April 30) because her "Kinky Boots" led the way with 13. Next up was "Matilda the Musical" with 12.
|
|
Slow is the appropriate word for the box office as the winner could only muster $20 million. Not only that no one seemed to want to attend a wedding, either.
|
|
It could be the calm before the storm or a little pain before a big gain as the world awaits "Iron Man 3." But, "Iron Man" comes out next week.
|
|
An award show that encompasses the power of social media is just one factor that goes into the Billboard Music Awards. They announced their nominations today (April 22).
|
|
Other matters came in to play this weekend besides taking in a movie in America, but sometimes getting away from bad news is needed.
|
|
Even though "42" is taking a mighty swing at the box office, it may have have to settle for the on deck circle as "Oblivion" arrives.
|
|
By April, award shows for the previous year seem a bit late. For MTV it seems right as they handed out their awards tonight (April 14).
|
|
Get ready for the fun play on words as "42" scores a win. Terms such as home run, steals, pitches, and yes, scores, too. Or any other baseball term. And have it.

|
It is not always a good thing to launch two genre-related films within a week of each other but it might actually help "Scary Movie 5."

Las Vegas -
Perhaps the best phrase that could apply to the Academy of Country Music Awards could take this form - - "Let's hope an award show doesn't break out at this country music bash."
|
|
One could call it a big win for "Evil Dead 2013" as it scares up a bloody box office win with a solid $26 million haul. Whether it has legs may depend on word of mouth now.

|
Chicago -
It is only fitting that a film festival that bears Roger Ebert's name will continue. It was announced today (April 5) that Ebertfest will indeed go on later this month.
