Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Oblivion’ Obliterates the Competition
Tom Cruise and science fiction are a powerful combination. Although the opening weekend of 'Oblivion' didn't break any records big or small, it's a more than solid start for a non-franchise, non-sequel, non-reboot.

Weekend Box Office Report: ’42′ is Number One
Well, it looks like we have an answer to the question of whether or not audiences are interested in a historical, racially charged baseball movie.
