The 10 Worst Moms in Pop Culture

Donald Deane — Sun, 12 May 2013 05:27:09 +0000

If movies and TV have taught us anything, it's that all mothers are NOT created equal. While some fictional moms might be willing to play the doting matriarch, others engage in twisted mind games, dole out severe corporal punishment and even commit murder most foul. Think about that the next time you forget to call your mom on Mother's Day.

Look, we all knew that 'Iron Man 3' was going to make a whole bunch of money and open at number one at the box office and kick the summer movie season off in style. The question was never "Is 'Iron Man 3' going to make any money?", the question was always "What absolutely absurd amount is 'Iron Man 3' going to make in its opening weekend?"

New Movies: 'Iron Man 3′ and That's It

Chris Chaberski — Sat, 04 May 2013 05:05:45 +0000

You've been hearing about it now for months, and it's finally here: the latest installment in Marvel's highly lucrative 'Avengers' film family, 'Iron Man 3.'

Damon Houx — Wed, 01 May 2013 00:00:52 +0000

It's nearly the summer season (at least for movies), so it's surprising how quiet 'The Great Gatsby' has been in selling itself. Sure, it's going to be opening the Cannes film festival, but it's not being sold as a tentpole summer event picture. Regardless, the film has released seven new clips to get us excited.

Weekend Box Office Report: 'Oblivion' Obliterates the Competition

Jacob Hall — Sun, 21 Apr 2013 18:47:44 +0000

Tom Cruise and science fiction are a powerful combination. Although the opening weekend of 'Oblivion' didn't break any records big or small, it's a more than solid start for a non-franchise, non-sequel, non-reboot. That's a sad statement on the current state of Hollywood, but that's another topic for another day.

Nick Romano — Mon, 15 Apr 2013 03:07:00 +0000

The first 'Catching Fire' trailer has finally hit during the 2013 MTV Movie Awards, following a slew of Capitol Couture character posters and one "teaser-for-a-teaser trailer" that didn't reveal very much of anything (other than that Jennifer Lawrence's Katniss is still PO-ed for having almost died in 'The Hunger Games'). With no more lame flaming Mockingjay symbols, check out the first actual footage from the new sequel.

Damon Houx — Fri, 12 Apr 2013 00:30:24 +0000

'The Hunger Games' proved adept at keeping audiences excited by offering brief glimpses at the movie, and letting everyone know about every casting decision, so it's no surprise that the follow-up 'Catching Fire' is using a similar strategy. We're still more than seven months out from 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire,' but it's just released two new images.

The Childlike Empress was our first love, but where did she go?

Of course, we were like seven, and [...]

It's the first time in forever that two films have opened to over $30 million at the same time...but it wasn't golden for all of the new releases.
