Old School, Devil, Arnie & More

  • If you like comedies then you might want to check out "Old School" starring Will Farrell, Luke Wilson and Vince Vaughn as three guys in their thirties who decide to have a little fun. The scene with the wedding singer adding his personal touch to a song is hysterical!
  • If you're more into drama and mystery, then you might like "Devil in a Blue Dress" based on the best selling book by Walter Mosley. I read the book years ago and loved it and finally got around to seeing the film today. Don Cheadle streals the show. I say check 'em both out, if you like this sort of thing.
  • Police in the Canadian province of Manitoba say a pricey piece of jewelry purloined from the set of Jennifer Lopez's now shooting romantic drama, "Shall We Dance?," turned up along with a murdered and dismembered man in a hotel room. This sounds like something out of a movie!
  • Arnold Schwarzenegger is getting ready to decide on his next film. It looks like it is down to "Big Sir" or a remake of "Westworld." Schwarzenegger is also developing a "Conan the Barbarian" sequel, to be produced by Larry and Andy Wachowski, you know, "The Matrix" brothers! I say do "Westworld" and follow up with "King Conan!"
  • "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl," opened at number one this week. The real surprise was that last week's champion, Arnold Schwarzenegger's "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines," fell two places to No. 3 in its second weekend with $19.6 million. Its 55 percent slide was one of the steepest in the top 10. Where's James Cameron when you need him?
  • PHOENIXVILLE, Pa. - The town where "The Blob" first made horror history is celebrating the movie monster that made it a star. "The Blob" isn't a horror movie that usually comes quickly to mind but it was one of the best made in the '50's!
