BOX OFFICE: IRON MAN blasts off with $104 million domestic, $200 million worldwide!
An insane opening for Iron Man. Batman is going to have a huge fight on his hands to top this!
BOX OFFICE: BABY MAMA delivers
Slow weekend for generations of males everywhere who will be out of pocket next week when Iron Man & GTA IV are unleashed!
BOX OFFICE: Li/Chan team-up is a fighting success
The Jet Li/Jackie Chan loyal fan club come out in full force for their long awaited team-up movie!
BOX OFFICE: Audiences accept invitation to PROM NIGHT
Biggest surprise of the year so far? Really awful looking crappy horror remake beats out mega star Keanu Reeves and Oscar winner Forest Whitaker in STREET KINGS.
BOX OFFICE: Danny Ocean busts trying to beat 21!
George Clooney's gamble into a sporting comedy doesn't pay off.
BOX OFFICE: 21 has the winning hand!
Finally, a spoof movie plays second fiddle to an actual real movie... with real actors... and a plot!
BOX OFFICE: HORTON makes some loot!
Jim Carrey's formula for success should be Dr. Seuss adaptations with Steve Carell. HORTON HEARS A WHO is his third biggest opening of all time behind GRINCH and BRUCE ALMIGHTY.
BOX OFFICE: 10,000 B.C. takes first place and $35.7 million opening
Personally I wouldn't have seen this CGI-fest in 10,000 years but there you go.

He has not ruled out directing further movies in the KILL BILL saga, centered around Vernita Green’s daughter and her vendetta against The Bride, but only when Uma Thurman has aged enough for it to make sense.
