Nothing will unseat "The Dark Knight" from its perch at the top of the movie box office mountain this weekend, not even Will Ferrell. Not even "The X Files 2," which is has been ten years in the making. "American Teen" will undoubtedly do great on a per screen basis, but the documentary is only being released in a handful of movie theaters, nationwide. The next movie to give "The Dark Knight" a run for its money at the movie box office will be "The Mummy 3," in theaters August 1st. Today, Go Behind The Scenes and watch the movie trailers of all new movies in theaters Friday - and all movies continuing in movie theaters... (continue)

Two potential 2009 movies, blockbusters, actually - "Terminator 4" and "Watchmen" - get their movie trailer debuts today. Also, Summit Entertainment, created by the dapper Rob Friedman, who bolted from Paramount Pictures to start his own movie studio, has "Twilight," which will undoubtedly make or break Summit Enterainment. Friedman's business prospects are a tad more lucrative, even, than Peter Guber's. Guber was tossed a decade ago from Sony Pictures only to start his successful production company, Mandalay Pictures - not a studio, however, which releases its own pictures like Summit Entertainment.) Wild About Movies has the movie trailers of all three potential movie box office blockbusters, "Twilight,""Terminator Salvation" and from the "300" director Zac Snyder, "Watchmen." Also, the movie trailer premieres of "Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince" trailer, select sequences of the "Harry Potter 6" movie, by the way, will be in 3D. And the "High School Musical 3" trailer. Finally, the 22nd James Bond, 007 movie; "Quantum Of Solace." Have a look at all six movie trailers by clicking on the appropriate link(s) above... (continue)

Today's "First Look: Big Screen" is: "Lakeview Terrace". A young couple (Patrick Wilson and Kerry Washington) has just moved into their California dream home - in "Lakeview Terrace" - when they become the target of their next-door neighbor, who disapproves of their interracial relationship. A stern, single father, this tightly wound LAPD officer (Samuel L. Jackson) has appointed himself the watchdog of the neighborhood. His nightly foot patrols and overly watchful eyes bring comfort to some, but he becomes increasingly harassing to the newlyweds. These persistent intrusions into their lives ultimately turn tragic when the couple decides to fight back. Leave it to director Neil LaBute to direct this racially charged film. (Note: Neil LaBute is the director of the movies "Nurse Betty" and Aaron Eckhart's first BIG SCREEN movie, "In The Company Of Men," which, because of the very nasty character he played in that film, may have relegated him to D-list movie star status for life.) For more about "Lakeview Terrace" - including the movie trailer - and for a look at thousands more movie trailers and movie posters of movies now in movie theaters and coming soon to movie theaters, including "Star Trek 11," and Zac Efron Naked - and in "Footloose 2010,""17" and "HSM3"...

Today's "Behind The Scenes" is "Vicky Cristina Barcelona" - VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA is a film that is indelibly linked to its location. “When I began writing the script, I wasn’t thinking of anything other than creating a story that had Barcelona as a character,” says Woody Allen. “I wanted to honor Barcelona, because I love the city very much, and I love Spain in general,” he says. “It’s a city full of visual beauty and the sensibility of the city is quite romantic. A story like this could only happen in a place like Paris or Barcelona.” What else does Woody Allen have to say about his latest big screen movie, starring reigning Oscar winning actor Javier Bardem ("No Country For Old Men")?
