For the first time in three weeks, we've got a new movie at the top spot, if only for a day.

Kitty, Chuck and Schmucks. How to choose among them? If only there was some sort of tabular scoring system that would help you decide...

Remember what I said last week about July offering quality over box office quantity? Yeah, forget that.

Tom Houseman, in his own words, "cracks his knuckles in the style of a hacker from a bad ‘90s movie and gets prepared to do some enlightening" about the arbitrary rush to write off 3-D.

This week: Extreme cleavage, a hot naked woman in the streets, a stabbing, a cocaine conspiracy and Pot in the News (Parts I and II). Enjoy our special 21-question edition of This Is So Last Week (the inclusion of a 21st question is a symbolic plea to celebrities to Be. More. Entertaining.)

Nothing says the doldrums of summer like a blast of negativity, right?

The Kids Are All Right tells an endearing but mostly traditional story about a family going through a crisis. It’s dramatic, funny and well acted, but it’s not as inspired as you might think...

When the first shot of a movie is of a nude Nicole Kidman in nothing but high heels, you know you are in for a surreal, wild ride that only legendary director Stanley Kubrick could deliver.

You see them staring back at you from the pages of a tabloid, winking at you on the movie screen, hypnotizing you into buying products you don't need, glaring at you as restraining order paperwork is filed.

A couple of weeks after its release, Inception continues to be the movie story of the moment.

Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddle, starring Cleavon Little, Gene Wilder, Madeline Kahn, and Harvey Korman was released in 1974. One of Brooks' funniest films, it satirizes both the Western genre of films and racial prejudices. Not a film for the politically correct, Blazing Saddles is full of racial epithets and naughty language (a smattering of which you will find in this quiz), all in service to ridiculing racists attitudes. Couch it all in Brooks' trademark style of humor and you have a classic bit of comedy with a message.

At first glance, Salt is another one of those movies where a wrongly accused man (or woman) must prove his (or her) innocence via a series of elaborate chase scenes and intense detective work.

This week: Chow Yun-fat emulates Mr. Miyagi, Forest Whitaker steals peoples’ organs and Ralph Fiennes goes from Voldemort to a god.

A 2001 comedy about a bubbly blonde sorority queen who follows her ex-boyfriend to Harvard Law, Legally Blonde was a surprise hit, grossing $96M domestically and $141M worldwide. It led to a sequel, a Broadway musical and a straight-to-dvd spin-off, and also continued the hit streak of star Reese Witherspoon. You may know it's impossible to use a half-loop stitching on low-viscosity rayon because it would snag the fabric, and that orange is SO not the new pink, but how well do you know Legally Blonde?

From the obscure to the obscurest to the merely overlooked or underappreciated; they all have a home in the TiVoPlex!

There's been a real dry wall of interesting news these last two weeks, painted over only slightly by the continuously-hyped mass entity known only as the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con International.

We talk about current Hollywood Lead Actress Power Rankings today, and engage in a thrilling conversation about Ramona and Beezus, as promised.

This week: a huge contract voided, a tainted award returned, a closer yanked early and an athletic pursuit denied. Enjoy our weekly sports quiz - just don't forget to wear your cup.

With decent reviews and a strong A-List star, Sony was hoping that its decently reviewed Salt would be able to take the weekend crown away from last week's big winner, Inception.

Despite the general consensus that some films out there are truly awful, for every one that is released there will always be a small minority of us that secretly enjoys them.

So your favorite (or at least I hope so) Top Chef recapper is back from my brief two-week hiatus.

Today, we’ll delve into five of my most unpopular opinions - at least, they’re opinions I assume to be unpopular. Maybe you’ll tell me you agree, or maybe you’ll have some contrarian opinions of your own you’d like to share.

An wildly eccentric young actress has emerged as one of Hollywood's most bankable stars. A star of blockbuster films who crusades on behalf of the downtrodden. An international superstar who doesn't have a publicist. Angelina Jolie is one of the more unique personalities in the celebrity universe. Roles, relationships, causes...how well do you know Angelina Jolie?

In "The Outing," Jerry and George are suspected to be a gay couple. Meanwhile, Elaine refuses to remove one particular clothing item. How well do you know Seinfeld: The Outing?

This week, Scott Pilgrim experiences his finest hour.

The director Christopher Nolan has a knack for making movies that demand to be seen twice - at least twice. I use the word “knack” instead of “gift” because...

Once upon a time, Christian Bale was not worried about yelling at the director of photography.

Two of my favorite dramas on television ended things last year with game changing episodes.

It has been said that the only way to truly award an acting Oscar is to have all the actors play the same part. Of course, there’s never been a year when more than one actor played the same part in different films, but Hollywood does have a long history of featuring the same character in multiple films over the span of time. You might think you know every actor in every role in every movie ever made, but how well do you know Same Role/Different Actor?

Inception is the big news of the weekend. There are spoilers for Inception in Part II of the discussion. Be warned.

This week: Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning take a break from vampires, Jeffrey Dean Morgan fires a gun and Chicago finds reason to celebrate.

One of the pitfalls of writing about the types of films I do is that I usually find myself commenting on material that’s been previously picked over like a breakfast buffet at noon.

What do Zombieland and Harold and Maude have in common? Absolutely nothing. Obviously.

The story of a Disney princess and her struggle to find and hold onto true love after being sent from her fairy tale (animated) land to the harsh, complicated live-action world, Enchanted paid homage to past Disney films and characters while still making its story and heroine one of a kind. It was also the beginning of Disney's return to hand-drawn animation after years of computer animated films. You may wonder why James Marsden seems to be stuck in roles where he never gets the girl, but how well do you know Enchanted?

One of this webmaster's favorite obscure 1980s movies, Gregory’s Girl, gets some love this week.

Our second admission to BOP University has enrolled...and he is of appropriate age for college matriculation. This should be interesting.

This time, let’s talk about The Red Shoes, a 1948 drama all about ballet. Don’t run away, reader. I’m no fan of ballet, but sometimes an art form can transcend its clichés...

What Despicable Me lacks in humor it makes up with heart.

In 1969 Support Your Local Sheriff was released. It featured James Garner, Jack Elam and Harry Morgan, among others. Support Your Local Gunfighter was released two years later with much the same cast, but with all of them playing different roles. The films share a very basic premise, Garner’s character rides into town, meets the town character played by Jack Elam, and is hired by Harry Morgan’s character to solve some local problem. Hilarity ensues. Because the films share a good deal in common with one another, your job is to answer the following 25 questions and discern the similarities and differences between the two films. Good luck.

This time around I reverse course and extend an apology to The Matrix Reloaded.

I’m not advocating a rush back to the time of stars like Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, and Bruce Willis. Hell, I can just wait until August for The Expendables if I want that.
