LOS ANGELES July 12, 2009(AP) — Gay Austrian fashion devotee Bruno has
proven he has serious box-office clout.
Sacha (SAH'-shuh) Baron Cohen's mock documentary "Bruno" took in
$30.4 million to lead the weekend for Hollywood. Baron Cohen's bawdy movie
outpaced the $26.5 million opening weekend for his surprise 2006 hit "Borat,"
in which he played a clueless Kazakh journalist touring America.
"Bruno" features Baron Cohen as an Austrian wannabe going to
extremes to achieve celebrity.
"Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs" was No. 2 for the weekend with
$28.5 million. "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen," which had held
the No. 1 spot the previous two weekends, came in third. see Bruno

When Shrek married Fiona, the last thing he had in mind was becoming
the next King. But when Shrek’s father-in-law, King Harold, suddenly croaks,
that is exactly what he faces. Unless Shrek (with the help of his trusted
companions Donkey and Puss In Boots) can find a suitable King for Far Far Away,
the ogre could be stuck with the job. The most promising candidate, Fiona’s
cousin Artie, an underachieving Medieval high school slacker, proves to be more
of a challenge than they bargained for. see Shrek

Thermopylae 300 is a stylised recounting of the Spartans’ epic last stand
against the Persian army at Thermopylae in 480 BC. But the movie’s
unflattering portrayal of Persians, the physically deformed, and its alleged

David Strathairn stars as Col. Robert Henderson in “The
Onyx Project.”
The film, “The Onyx Project,” is meant to
be an experiment in nonlinear storytelling for the digital age. It tells the
tale of Col. Robert Henderson, a United States Army Special Forces officer
played by David Strathairn, who undertakes a rogue mission (code name Onyx) in
Afghanistan that goes terribly wrong.
The original "Wicker Man" starred Edward Woodward (later
known as TV's "The Equalizer") as a Scotland Yard detective sent to a
remote Scottish island to investigate a schoolgirl's disappearance. He finds a

The remake, which opens nationwide Friday, moves the
setting to a remote Northwest town (it was actually filmed in British Columbia).
It stars Nicolas Cage as the cop and Ellen Burstyn as Sister Summerisle. See wicker
