Opening this weekend

The weekend's basically over! But here's what already just came out:

Avatar: James Cameron. What a guy. If you haven't read his epic New Yorker article or the story about how he almost drowned, do that right now. If you don't want to go see this movie afterwards, you and I probably aren't going to get along.

Did You Hear About the Morgans?: Starring the British guy you probably hate and the ugly girl from Sex and the City (solid show). I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that this movie isn't going to do well. Some might blame Avatar for opening on the same day, but in all truthfulness, movies with no appeal don't do well no matter what else comes out at the same time.

Limited Release:

Nine: Pros: It's a musical version of Fellini's excellent 8 1/2 starring Daniel Day-Lewis. Cons: From the director of Chicago... with Kate Hudson. You should still probably see it.

Crazy Heart: Jeff "The Dude" Bridges as a country singer with a dark past. Iunno, looks all right.

Okay cool, I'll see you on Monday and we'll look at how things turned out.
