Megamind Wins Second Consecutive Weekend
The animated film Megamind held off challengers, in particular a solid opening from Unstoppable, in order to win its second straight weekend at the box office.

It made $30 million and now has totaled nearly $90 million in just 10 days. Strong results from 3D screens have helped boost its take and...

‘Kung Fu Panda 2′ Teaser Trailer
2008's Kung Fu Panda was a smashing success. The film made $215.4M at the box office and scored well in reviews. Considering how well the film did, it was only a matter of time before there was a sequel. Any studio that has a family film that has this much success will surely milk every penny out of it. I just hope the 'Panda' films don't progressively get worse in the way the Shrek films did. Regardless, Paramount is releasing a sequel to Kung Fu Panda, and the trailer has premiered on Yaho...
