		<description><![CDATA[Box office totals won’t be confirmed until Monday, but as of right now Avatar again crushed its competition, hauling in $48.5 million dollars over the weekend, moving James Cameron’s sci-fi epic into seventh place on the all-time highest grossing list (domestic box office, not adjusted for inflation).  Sherlock Holmes and Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel were a distant second and third with $16,610,000 and $16,300,000 respectively. Daybreakers and It’s Complicated rounded out the top five with $15 and $11 million. Now the question is – how far can Avatar climb? Even if it’s weekend gross dropped by 50% next week, it still will leapfrog Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, E.T. and Shrek 2 to become the fourth highest grossing domestic movie of all time. It should also pass Star Wars ($460,998,007) to take control of the third spot on the aforementioned list; however, from there Avatar’s financial future becomes murky. The Dark Knight ($533,345,358), in my opinion, is well within reach, but I think Cameron’s 1997 film, Titanic, will remain number one, as $600,788,188 million is quite the haul. For our international friends, Avatar is now the second highest grossing worldwide release in history, second only to Titanic. To pass the 1997 behemoth, Avatar would need to pull in another $512 million. Only four words for that possibility: Not. Going. To. Happen.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If weekend estimates are accurate, Avatar is the box office champ for the third consecutive week, raking in an impressive post-holiday $68 million in domestic ticket sales. That puts its three week haul at $352 million and in 15th place on the highest grossing movies list. Now the &#8220;will it beat out The Dark Knight and Titanic&#8221; money watch will begin in earnest. It would be interesting if it took 12 years and another James Cameron film to best Titanic&#8217;s longstanding grip as the all-time box office champ. If you ask me, even though reviews are generally positive, I think word-of-mouth and repeat viewings have and will be key to Avatar&#8217;s success. Rounding out the top five were Sherlock Holmes ($38M), Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel, It&#8217;s Complicated ($36M), ($18M) and The Blind Side ($12M). One has to wonder if the continued success of The Blind Side will help Sandra Bullock&#8217;s Oscar chances, and I think anyone who doesn&#8217;t think Avatar won&#8217;t be one of the best picture nominees is seriously smoking the ganja. I haven&#8217;t seen Alvin and the Chipmunks (thank the Lord), but I have seen Sherlock Holmes and that film lost its luster hardcore after a second viewing. That&#8217;s one I won&#8217;t be purchasing on Blu-ray; I&#8217;m not that big of a hi-def slut.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Robert Downey Jr. has become a force of nature. Once just a great actor, the dude has seen his career resuscitated into the open arms of an adoring public who now sees him as their cinematic best friend to giddily bury under spade fulls of lavish praise. If there&#8217;s any doubt Downey Jr.&#8217;s charm and dynamism will single-handedly open Sherlock Holmes to fat gobs of cash while allowing director Guy Ritchie a leg up and out of his London Gangster limbo, it&#8217;s from idiots. Still, while Downey Jr. is an Alpha vortex personified, his onscreen largess only serves to magnify how listless Holmes: 2009 would be without him. Ditching the detective hat for a ruffled mop of 2000-vogue bedhead, 5 o&#8217;clock shadow and fisticuffs, Downey Jr. effortlessly breathes new life into the famed Detective of Baker Street in the resurrection of Sherlock Homes&#8211; a standard movie by all counts but one elevated from bore to pleasant distraction by the sheer power of Downey Jr.. Jude Law keeps pace as the bowler hat wearing, mustachio&#8217;d sidekick and maybe-more-than-a-friend Watson (now with chop-sockey action), while McAdams&#8211;for all her sex appeal and on-screen magneticism displayed in other roles&#8211; is utterly lost in Downey Jr.&#8217;s wake as muse Irene Adler. After years of sleuthing across foggy, dark and grimy Londontown, Holme&#8217;s career seems to be winding down after nemesis Lord Blackwood (an unintimidating Mark Strong) is captured and hung. As it turns out, Watson is actually straight (or creating an overly elaborate beard) with plans to be married. Unfortunately for Watson, Holmes is doing his best to undermine the new marriage and is going stir-crazy with a lack of juicy mystery when one is plopped in his lap. Holmes&#8217; lady-love/heartbreaker Irene Adler is back in town and Lord Blackwood and his mean snaggletooth aren&#8217;t quite as dead as onlookers, including Dr. Watson, thought.  Always one to deduce, Holmes smells something nefarious and commits himself to the case of the &#8220;Supernatural Bad Guy Intent to Rule the World&#8221;. Sherlock Holmes retains the air of horse-drawn, top-hatted oldtimery in visual only. The new Holmes has received some adrenaline juice with a boom, boom, pow sense of modernity. After all, thinking is boring and 21st century audiences demand some ass kicking. But here&#8217;s one of a few problems: for a movie about a detective, Sherlock Holmes never has much mystery. Oh sure, there&#8217;s a mystery, but in the end you know it will all be explained and the mask removed to reveal a fist-shaking Mr. Rumplebottom vowing he could have pulled it all off it weren&#8217;t for that meddling kid. There&#8217;s little tension in this modern day Holmes. Everything is spoon-fed via a plot that isn&#8217;t propelled by the unraveling of mystery so much as it is flying fists of English fury, moments of peril and chases. Holmes legendary deduction, once a breadcrumb to the audience, is simply exposition to allow Holmes and Watson (who, while looking like a dandy fop in the poster, can beat some...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Love it or hate it, you can’t deny the New Moon train is rolling at full steam the last two weeks and, by all accounts, shouldn’t slip from the top spot until possibly December 11, when Disney’s The Princess and The Frog opens wide. For now, The Twilight Saga: New Moon has earned at hearty $230,947,696 domestically, making it the sixth highest grossing movie of 2009. Back to The Princess and The Frog &#8211; if early reviews are any indication, then Disney’s first classically animated film (2D) since 2004’s Home on the Range is assuredly going to boot Twilight down to number two. As it stands today, The Princess and The Frog is at 82 percent on RottenTomatoes.com. Still, it’s hard to see what else, before Avatar (December 18), Sherlock Holmes (December 25) and Alvin and The Chipmunks: The Squeakuel (December 25) could possibly boot Edward and Bella from the top five money-earners at the box office. That would make a bounteous six week run for the second film in the Twilight Saga and, I predict, place the film behind Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen as the second highest grossing movie of 2009.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Holidays are here, meaning studios will trot out their best in an effort to garner Oscar attention as close to Oscar time as possible. It also means we&#8217;ll be treated to some &#8220;family friendly&#8221; pap, total misses and the stuff that&#8217;s somewhere in between. Here&#8217;s our first-impression on the upcoming season&#8217;s Must-See, Maybe&#8217;s and Must-Misses, all spiffed up and scrubbed by way of our Holiday Nine. Must &#8211; See Avatar (December 18) -Dan If you&#8217;ve been following AATM or have been to the movies lately, you&#8217;ve probably&#8211;finally&#8211;heard of the otherworldly Dances With Wolves meets robots, monsters and aliens sci-fi fantasy Avatar. Promised to be the cinematic game-changer of the new century, Avatar is James Cameron&#8217;s return to the ridiculously budgeted (rumored to cost over $500 million), geeky fun he kicked to the curb after Titanic when he decided to go swimming for a decade. Initially, public perception for Avatar was non-existent outside the geek community, but thanks to some expositionary trailers and a promise of a 3D-immersive world experience, Avatar has morphed into the go-to movie of the season. Cameron&#8217;s yet to direct a film most people haven&#8217;t enjoyed from start to finish and with Avatar&#8217;s promise of xeno-zoology and their perforation exchange with space marines thrown in for good measure,  Avatar gets a full pass on cinematic event spectacle alone. The Road (November 25) &#8211; Andy The Road is a magnificent novel about a father and son traveling through a ruined and savage post-apocalyptic United States. Written by Cormac McCarthy, the book is one of my all-time favorites and it whipped me through a myriad of emotions &#8211; hope, sadness, fear, anger and happiness. It&#8217;s more a story of love and hope than it is an end-of-the-world tale. If director John Hillcoat (The Proposition) and writer Joe Penhall can successfully translate McCarthy&#8217;s haunting prose to the big screen, then the movie should be equally emotional. It stars Viggo Mortensen (Eastern Promises), Charlize Theron (In the Valley of Elah), Robert Duvall (We Own the Night), Guy Pearce (The Hurt Locker) and Kodi Smit-McPhee (X-Men Origins: Wolverine). Sherlock Holmes (December 25) &#8211; Dan With a few commercially prime role choices in 2008, Robert Downey Jr. catapulted himself from forgotten to must-see talent over the short course of one summer season. Why else would anyone be interested in seeing a revitalization of Sherlock Holmes at the hand of a guy who&#8217;s only been able to make a name for himself by way of stylized British Crime movies? But sure as crap, here we are at the end of 2009 with the general public looking forward to a Guy &#8220;Lock, Stock, Snatched and Rock&#8217;n'Rolla&#8217;d&#8221; Ritchie movie. The trailers make the film look like a heaping plate of sassy good times with Jude &#8220;I make receding hair lines look awesome&#8221; Law and Rachael &#8220;So cute&#8221; McAdams giving Downey the supporting role assists. We think it looks like fun, which is why this one rounds out the top three Must-Sees of Holiday 2009. Maybe...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Aside from watching chestnuts roasting on an open fire and Jack Frost nipping at my nether-regions, I think I&#8217;ll be snacking on some popcorn and sipping a frosty Diet Coke at the theater and watching Guy Ritchie&#8217;s Sherlock Holmes. A second trailer US trailer was released today and, even though not really showing us anything that new, it merely confirms to me that which I already assume: This movie is pure win. How can it not be? Guy Ritchie&#8217;s style plus Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law&#8217;s charisma plus the lovely Rachel McAdams is a surefire holiday hit in my book. I must be obsessed with Holmes, because it&#8217;s been my Trailer Tuesday on two separate occasions &#8211; once in May and again in July. What about you? Is this on your radar for the holiday season? If not, have you considered slapping yourself in the face or punching your own private parts? Because you should. Take a peek below and leave a comment as to your opinion, won&#8217;t you?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is the International Trailer for Guy Ritchie&#8217;s new movie, &#8220;Sherlock Holmes,&#8221; due in theaters on Christmas Day. As you probably know, it stars Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law and the lovely Rachel McAdams. As you watch the trailer you&#8217;ll probably recognize a few other Ritchie regulars, including Mark Strong (&#8220;RocknRolla,&#8221; &#8220;Body of Lies,&#8221; &#8220;Stardust&#8221;). I think the trailer is enough mix of substance and tease to make this a surefire hit come December 25th. I can also say, being a huge Robert Downey Jr. fan, that I&#8217;m pining for this to further his career and expand his reputation as one of Hollywood&#8217;s brightest. Take a peek at the trailer below. What&#8217;s your call?]]></description>

Downey Jr. has a natural charisma and fantastic acting chops that his drugged out years of disillusionment never stopped.
