So, have you heard of this 'Hunger Games' thing? No? So, you've been living in a closet?  Personally, I'm not into that one, but the new Vince Vaughn movie about a sperm donor, looks like it might be pretty funny. Here's a better look.

There was no question of whether or not 'Thor: The Dark World' was going to open at number one this weekend. Of course it was. The big question was whether it would get a post-'Avengers' bump, or if it would do similar business to its 2011 predecessor. Question answered: it got a bump and a pretty good one, too.

There's nothing like a good zombie apocalypse to get your blood flowing (pun intended), and the award-winning 'Buck Wild', described as a zombie horror comedy, will be shown this Thursday (Nov. 7th) at 7pm at the Leo J. Welder Center for the Performing Arts.

A trio of new flicks hits theaters this weekend, with a little something for all audiences.

If you were wondering what it would take to finally shove 'Gravity' out of the number one spot at the box office, the answer is Johnny Knoxville as an elderly man with a foul mouth and penchant for sustaining groin injuries. After nearly a month at the top, Alfonso Cuaron's science fiction spectacle fell to number two, dethroned by 'Bad Grandpa.'

This weekend brings two new flicks to theaters. The first is a crime thriller with a big-name cast, top-notch talent behind the camera, and dreams of Oscars. The other is, well, very different from that.

It's an action-packed weekend at theaters, with two new thrillers arriving—one based on true events, the other a sequel to a movie that not too many saw, but, well, there's a sequel anyway. But hey, if you're talking about Sofia Vergara with machine gun jumblies, who cares if it's a sequel?

When a movie is sold as being the next incredible cinematic experience that will change the way we watch movies, expectations are huge. Audiences may scoff. It could all backfire. But Alfonso Cuaron's 'Gravity' lived up to the hype and audiences responded in kind, giving it the biggest opening ever for a non-sequel October release.

There's nothing like a family-friendly animated movie to help shake off the September doldrums and 'Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2' performed as expected. Although Sony's big release effortlessly took the number one spot, this weekend had a few other bright spots, namely a handful of independent films doing quite well in more limited release.
