New Movie Friday: Takers, The Last Exorcism, Avatar Special Edition – Watch the Trailers
I’ve never been much into movies or TV shows about exorcism and demons (excepting ‘Supernatural,’ ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ and ‘Angel ,’ that is), so I’m not too hyped up about seeing ‘The Last Exorcism,’ new in theaters today. And even with those TV shows – quite possibly some of my all-time favorites — I…

Here’s the rundown of what’s new in theaters this week – everything from nippy little piranhas (in 3D!) to a ‘Twilight’ parody to the return of a wise nanny who shows up at just the right time. ‘Nanny McPhee Returns’ (PG for rude humor, some language and mild thematic elements).

New Movie Friday: Salt! Ramona and Beezus!
I just read an interview with Angelina Jolie in the August issue of Vanity Fair, and she turned down the role of Bond Girl once, noting that she’d rather play James Bond. That’s my kind of girl. A year later, she was offered the role of Evelyn Salt, and from all the buzz, it sounds…

New Movie Friday: Inception! The Sorcerer’s Apprentice! Watch the Trailers!
Two of the new movies today, ‘Inception’ and ‘The Sorcerer’s Apprentice,’ have gotten tons of press, so you probably know a lot about them. But I bet a lot of folks have never heard of the third movie, ‘Standing Ovation.’ Who knows, it could be a breakout hit. Here’s the rundown: ‘Inception’ (PG-13 for sequences…

New Movie Friday: Knight and Day! Grown Ups!
New in theaters today are a couple of movies that have gotten tons of press. Both ‘Grown Ups’ and ‘Knight and Day’ look cute, but I’ve most been looking forward to ‘Knight and Day,’ mainly because I love a good action-romance flick, and it doesn’t get much better than Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz. Here’s…
