Jedi Mind Tricks vs. The Box Office Wall Climber

Let the battle begin as STAR WARS: EPISODE 2 is now in theaters. After the monstrous opening Spiderman had in its first week and after slaughtering the competition in its second week, there may be a new sheriff in town by the end of this weekend. On another galaxy, Hugh Grant is back on the screen with About A Boy, based on the book from the author of High Fidelity.

Once the dust clears and a winner is declared between STAR WARS and SPIDERMAN, Jennifer Lopez will come in next week and give them Enough to worry about. Joining the fight in a few weeks will be Eddie Griffin, already on the screen with a supporting role The New Guy. Eddie comes back as the lead in Malcolm Lee's next feature, Undercover Brother. At the same time Morgan Freeman lends a hand with his role in The Sum of All Fears.

Till next time,
