Weekend Box Office - "The Equalizer" starring Denzel Washington was number one with $35 million , "The Maze Runner" based on the popular novel series came in second with $17.5 million, "The Boxtrolls" the stop motion animated family friendly feature took the number three spot with $17.3 million. 

                                                                           

"Legend of Korra" begins its fourth and final season on Friday, Oct.3. This series has proven itself as a worthy successor to the show that spawned it ... "Avatar: The Last Airbender". The third season finale was a mindblowing, action fest filled with one jaw-dropping surprise after another! I highly recommend both series. Here's the recent teaser trailer for this series' fourth and final season.

                                                                                    

                                                                                  

"Jupiter Ascending" is the latest sci-fi fantasy epic from the directors of "The Matrix Trilogy". The movie features Mila Kunis as the Jupiter Jones a young human woman who suddenly discovers she is destined to ascend to the throne as Queen of the Universe and Channing Tatum as Caine her extraterrestrial bodyguard. Due in theaters in February 2015, the movie appears to have plenty the Wachowski's signature style of action.  Check out the trailer.

                                                                                       

"Transformers: Age of Extinction" is available today on DVD/Bluray. The movie which stars Mark Wahlberg is chock full of action and excitement, not to mention explosions. The movie introduces the fan favorite Dinobots in their first live action appearance.

Weekend Box Office -  "The Maze Runner" based on the best selling book series was number one bringing it home with $32.5 million, “A Walk Among the Tombstones” starring Liam Neeson was number two with $32.1 million, and “This Is Where I Leave You" featuring a star-studded cast headed up by Jason Bateman and Tina Fey came in third with $11.9 million.

                                                                                 

"The Boxtrolls" opens this Friday. The movie is brought to us from the makers of "Coraline" and "ParaNorman" two very unusual, yet delightful animated features. The trailer is an introduction to the world, characters, and actors of "The Boxtrolls". Enjoy!

                                                                                   
 
                                                                                

"Godzilla" was one of the most pleasant surprises of the summer. The movie that brought big screen cred back to the "King of the Monsters". The movie was a megahit that instantly called for  a sequel and earned director Gareth Edwards a spot as one of the directors to helm a "Star Wars" spin off. The movie is currently available on DVD/ Bluray. Check out the trailer.

                                                                                      

Marvel's "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." returns tonight with a new season and a whole new attitude. The show delivered jaw dropping surprises last season by doing the unexpected. This season will expand that by revealing the mysteries of last season and expanding the scope of an already rich tapestry. Very exciting.

Weekend Box Office - "No Good Deed" starring Idris Elba and Taraji P. Henson was number one with $24.5 million, "Dolphin Tale 2" was number two with $16.5 million, and Marvel's "Guardians of the Galaxy" came in at number three with $8 million.


                                                                                 

"Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 is easily one of the most anticipated movies of the fall season. The new trailer is here and entitled “The Mockingjay Lives”. I am sure you'll agree that it more than lives up to the hype.

                                                                               

                                                                                       

"The Boxtrolls" is the latest stop motion animated film from Laika. In case you're not familiar with Laika, they brought us the stop motion features "Coraline" and "ParaNorman". The latest trailer reveals the story behind the movie and shows off their very brilliant style of animation.

 "John Wick" starring Keanu Reeves is best described as a revenge action tale. He plays a seemingly good guy who gets pulled back into a world he left behind by an act of violence that robs him of the only things he really had that mattered to him ... his dog and his car.

Weekend Box Office - Marvel's "Guardians of the Galaxy" was number one with $21.2 million with an estimated $279 million accumulated total officially making it the number one movie of the summer, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" came in second with $15.5 million, and in third place the teen melodrama "If I Stay" bringing $12 million.

                                                                                  

"Kingsman: The Secret Service" based on the comic book by Mark Millar and Dave Gibbons and directed by Matthew Vaughn ("Kick-Ass", "X-Men: The First Class") is about a super secret spy organization that recruits a promising, but rough-edged street kid into its highly competitive training program just as a crisis is brewing. The movies stars Colin Firth, Michael Caine, and Samuel L. Jackson. For more insight check out the trailer.

                                                                                        

                                                                                 
                                                                  
"Horns" stars Daniel Radcliffe of "Harry Potter" fame in a very strange role. He portrays a young man whose girlfriend is raped and murdered and while innocent of the crime, everyone believes he killed her. To add to his misery, he begins to develop what looks like devil horns growing out of his head, and supernatural powers at his command. The movie is based on the novel of the same name by Joe Hill.

                                                                                     

"Interstellar" stars Matthew McConaughey as a widowed engineer who has to leave his two kids behind in an attempt to save all of humanity. He signs on to undertake a space mission through a wormhole in search of an inhabitable planet as salvation from an Earth suffering from dwindling resources.

                                                                                          

"The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies" arrives in theaters on December 17. I am looking forward to the epic that this movie will most certainly be. If you have not seen the first two parts of this epic trilogy waste no more time and see them, December 17 will be here before you know it.
