No matter what Nikki Finke and the critics try to tell you, This Is It, now the highest-grossing concert film of all time in just five days, enjoyed a rock-solid debut,

Robert Zemeckis's artists and performers have partnered stunningly lifelike animation with at once astonishing and invisible 3D effects work, creating the illusion of living inside a movie.

The Men Who Stare at Goats is a flat and often dull drudge of a film, a low-water mark for most involved (it's George Clooney's worst film ever; yes, worse than Batman & Robin).

The festival-circuit darling Precious has debuted with $1.8 million on just 18 screens. Yes, that's $100,000 per screen for three days. That's the twelfth-biggest per-screen average of all time.

Precious is a uniquely singular story. It does not aim to be the urban-plight drama to end all urban-plight dramas, but instead it focuses on one person and the people around her who shape her past and future.

I went into 2012 expecting the worst. Roland Emmerich hadn't made a good movie since 2000, and his batting average was a pathetic 2/7 thus far. But the thing actually works.

Based on my top-secret, patented box office estimation formula, I hereby state that Twilight Saga: New Moon will gross $81 million over its first three days. No... wait, it will actually gross $91 million!

New Moon just grossed $26 million in just midnight and 3am showings, and it clocked $72 million in just the first 24 hours. Why do I feel like Tommy Lee Jones at the end of No Country For Old Men?

The audience for this huge weekend for Twilight was 80% female. So, if you looked anything like Robert Pattinson and were willing to tag along at the movies, there's a healthy chance you got laid over the last 72 hours.

What is worth noting is that all of these male characters are basically users and abusers of their friends, family, and lovers. Yet Bella is attacked in various circles because she allows herself to be abused and used.

Please, let's not turn this film's success into a The Blind Side vs. Precious debate, with alleged implications for Barack Obama and/or Sarah Palin in the next election cycle. Don't be that idiot.
