Weekend Box Office -  "Pain & Gain" starring Mark Wahlberg and Dwayne Johnson was number one with $20 million, Tom Cruise's sci-fi  movie "Oblivion" came in at number two with $17.4 million, and "42" the Jackie Robinson biopic rounded out the top three with $10.7 million.

 

 

 

                                                                         

 

 

The highly anticipated sequel to "The Hunger Games" is upcoming and the first trailer making the rounds. "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" looks to be as exciting as the first movie.

 

 

 

                                                                              

 

 

 

                                                                                   

 

 

 

 

The remake of the classic horror movie based on the Stephen King novel of the same name has been remade starring Julianne Moore and Chloe Grace Moretz in the title role.

 

 

                                                                            

  

                                                                              

 

 

  Finally, after years of waiting there is a sequel to "Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief". I really enjoyed that movie and knew that since they're based on a series of books that there was a good possibility for sequels. Logan Lehrman returns as the half-human son of the Olympian god Poseidon. The first movie set up the world in which the half mortal children of the Olympians train as heroes and face perils much like their half-human predecessors did centuries ago. 

 

 

 

                                                                              

 

 

I am looking forward to seeing this movie especially since it looks like an edgy retelling of the classic. "The Lone Ranger" starring Armie Hammer  and Johnny Depp. Talk about edgy, wait until you see Johnny Depp as Tonto. Awesome.

R.I.P.D. which stands for Rest In Peace Department is based on the Dark Horse comic by Peter M. Lenkov. The movie stars Ryan Reynolds and Jeff Bridges. The trailer is a great intro to the characters and the story, so I'll let the trailer do it's job.

 

 

                                                                             

 

 

Finally, the sequel to "Kick-Ass" and what a doozy of a sequel it promises to be. This was the mild trailer for the movie and wait 'til you get a load of Jim Carrey. Wow!

The new Syfy television series "Defiance" aired last night and it did not disappoint. The show is a visual treat and well woven tale of humans and aliens working together in a town that signifies a new beginning on a very transformed Planet Earth.  

 

 

                                   

 

                                                                                                                                                                    

 

 

 

 

                                                                              

 

 

 

 

 The new movie featuring Matt Damon and Jodie Foster is a classic tale of the have and the have nots told with a science fiction twist. It promises to be a feast for the eyes and definitely fodder for the imagination. Don't take my word check out this trailer especially for how different both of the movie's stars look.

  The only way to set up the trailer for the movie "The Purge" is that in the tradition of all speculative fiction it takes place in a possible future where America is experiencing greater peace and prosperity than ever before, but at a cost. One night a year, for 12 hours all crime is legal, especially murder. Check this trailer out.

BBC America recently announced that "Doctor Who" fan favorites David Tennant and Billie Piper will be returning for the 50th anniversary special which has already begun filming in the U.K. for airing later this season.
