Despicable Me Takes Box Office Crown From Twilight: Eclipse
Both new openers exceeded expectations at the box office this weekend. Despicable Me knocked The Twilight Saga: Eclipse out of the top spot while Predators also performed well finishing in third. Despicable Me, the animated film from Universal, pulled in $60.1 million which is especially impressive given the limited number of 3D screens currently available. There are three 3D films out on the market right now. With a relatively low budget of just $69 million it is already a huge success. ...

Review: Dinner for Schmucks
The cast and concept behind Dinner for Schmucks would seem to make for a promising comedy. While there are some laughs to be had they are few and far between and the overall result is very flat.

2010 Emmy Nominations Announced
The nominees for the 2010 Emmy Awards were announced this morning for the show that will take place on Sunday August 29th.
