HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 20, 2001 -- Dogs are definitely an actress' best friend. Drew Barrymore's home was badly damaged by fire early Sunday morning, but no one was hurt, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. Barrymore was at home with her fiancé, MTV comedian Tom Green, when the fire broke out in her 3,500-square-foot two-story home north of Beverly Hills.

The surprising hero in this tragedy is Drew's dog, Flossie, who alerted the sleeping couple to the impending flames by barking and banging on their bedroom door, Barrymore's spokesman Eddie Michaels told the Associated Press. At the first sign of flames at 3:30 a.m. on Sunday, Flossie raced to the couple's bedroom and barked wildly to wake and ultimately rescue them. Barrymore and Green escaped safely and unharmed. "We're great," she told reporters. "Other than the fact that the home burned down," Green added.

SANTA MONICA, Calif., Feb. 14, 2000 -- So, today's Valentine's Day, and there are many reasons to be bitter. (Being single one great reason to be bitter).

So, it didn't help that Blockbuster, that rental behemoth, last week released its Top 10 list of the most romantic films of all-time. Of all-time? Oh, really.

Consider:

10. "The Wedding Singer" (1998) 9. "My Best Friend's Wedding" (1997) 8. "The Thomas Crown Affair" (1968) 7. "Jerry Maguire" (1996) 6. "Sleepless in Seattle" (1993) 5. "Chasing Amy" (1997) 4. "Sixteen Candles" (1984) 3. "Breakfast at Tiffany's" (1961) 2. "Pretty Woman" (1990) 1. "As Good As It Gets" (1997)

So, OK, claws are out, and it's now open season.

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 6, 2000 -- Everyone needs a vacation away from home once in a while, including E.T. The stubby little alien with the glowing heart is coming back to Earth for the theatrical re-release of "E.T. the Extraterrestrial" in March 2002.

The event, to commemorate the Steven Spielberg film's 20th anniversary, will include never-before-seen footage and a digitally remixed soundtrack. Heck, even the little alien will get a 21st century facelift with the help of computer technology.

"Even though 'E.T.' has achieved this special place in our lives, I always wanted to give audiences another chance to experience it as they first did -- in theaters, seeing it again, or seeing it with their families," Spielberg said in a statement. "I also wanted to enhance that experience with advances in technology and some new footage."

After a record-setting Thanksgiving feast, Hollywood got only box office crumbs this weekend as ticket sales plunged 50% from their holiday levels.

Universal and Imagine Entertainment's PG-rated blockbuster comedy adventure "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas" continued to top the chart in its third weekend with a still festive estimated $27.11 million (-48%) at 3,138 theaters (+4 theaters; $8,640 per theater). Its cume is approximately $172.0 million, heading for $250 million.

(NOTE: All percentage comparisons today are calculated against the three-day weekend portion of the five-day Thanksgiving holiday period.)

"Grinch" had the highest per-theater average for any film playing in wide release last weekend.

"The Grinch" continued making a mountain of money, easily holding on to first place for a fourth straight weekend.

Universal and Imagine Entertainment's PG-rated blockbuster comedy adventure "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas" topped the chart in its fourth week with a still magical estimated $18.46 million (-32%) at 3,186 theaters (+48 theaters; $5,795 per theater). Its cume is approximately $195.5 million, heading for $250 million-plus.

"It's exhilarating to have 'Grinch' the Number One film four weekends in a row; and as we move closer to the actual holiday season, having this film achieve the $200 million mark prior to that is most gratifying for Universal and Imagine Entertainment," Universal distribution president Nikki Rocco said Sunday morning.

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 26, 2000 -- Dr. Seuss' "Grinch" was just what the doctor ordered for theater owners, lifting their spirits with nearly $74 million in Thanksgiving ticket sales.

Universal and Imagine Entertainment's PG-rated blockbuster comedy adventure "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas" from director Ron Howard, producer Brian Grazer and star Jim Carrey easily held on to the top spot in its second weekend.

Going into the long Thanksgiving period, insiders' were seeing stiff competition on their radar screens for "Grinch" from Buena Vista's twin openings of "Unbreakable" (Touchstone) and "102 Dalmatians" (Disney). But it was clear as early as Thanksgiving morning when estimates of Wednesday's grosses became available that "Grinch" would top the holiday chart. Nonetheless, Buena Vista's two new arrivals together carved themselves a robust $74 million slice of box o

"The Grinch" stole the weekend box office with $55 million in very green grosses.

Universal and Imagine Entertainment's PG-rated comedy adventure "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas" easily evicted "Charlie's Angels" from first place with a record-setting estimated $55.11 million at 3,127 theaters ($17,625 per theater).

"Grinch," which is playing on over 4,200 screens, had the highest per-theater average for any film playing in wide or limited release last weekend.

"It's the highest non-sequel opener ever," Universal distribution president Nikki Rocco said Sunday morning. "In all-time rankings, it's fifth, including holidays and summer because four others are sequels. It's Universal's biggest non-holiday opening because we have the Number One with 'Lost World.' It's the Number Two November opening ever, behind 'Toy Story 2,' which was the Thanksgiving holid

"Charlie's Angels" won this weekend's box office election by a mile despite projections that "Little Nicky" might give it a devil of a time.

"Angels," Columbia's PG-13 action adventure comedy, continued kicking box office butt in its second weekend with a still sexy estimated $25.0 million (-38%) at 3,037 theaters (theater count unchanged; $8,232 per theater). Its cume is approximately $75.4 million, heading for $150 million or more.

"Angels" had the highest per-theater average for any film playing in 500 or more theaters last weekend.

"Great news for us," Sony Pictures Entertainment worldwide marketing & distribution president Jeff Blake said Sunday morning. "It's just a terrific hold considering the record opening we had the week before."

Asked where "Angels" is going, Blake replied, "We should be able to hit $100 million by Thanksgiving and still have t

With heavenly grosses clearly on the horizon, "Charlie's Angels" is poised to kick off in first place this weekend.

The PG-13 action adventure comedy opening via Columbia at 3,037 theaters is flying high on Hollywood's advance radar screen.

"I feel this movie is (going to open) closer to $30 million than $20 million," predicts one insider. "I think it's going to get every teenager out there -- male and female."

"Number one by far," agrees another studio executive. "About $25 million-plus. It's (big) across the board. It looks solid in the male category, but extra solid in the young female category."

Directed by McG, "Angels" stars Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, Lucy Liu and Bill Murray.

"Angels" is expected to do what no other film has managed to do the past four weeks -- beat the 'Parents!' After a month atop the chart, Universal's PG-13 comedy blo

"The Grinch" should gobble up more Thanksgiving box office leftovers than any other movie this weekend.

"Everything will take a 50-60% drop, particularly the family films," predicts one insider, anticipating a replay of last weekend's chart, since there are no new wide openings.

"You've got to figure that 50% drops are in line," another studio executive agrees. "There's no doubt about that. It always happens."

Should someone have opened a picture this weekend? "No," replies a distributor, "not unless you had a teenage film like 'Scream.' It's not a good weekend for box office. People are getting set for the holidays and they're drained. They're tired from Thanksgiving and they've got to get going with their Christmas shopping. We did a quarter of a billion dollars over Thanksgiving, so everybody went to the movies last weekend."

Three films should enjoy heaping portions of box office pie over a five-day Thanksgiving period in which the marketplace expands to $240 million or more.

Which movie carves itself the biggest slice of holiday business remains to be seen, but insiders say the happy chart-topping trio will be Universal and Imagine Entertainment's "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas," last weekend's Number One film, and Buena Vista's two openings -- Disney's "102 Dalmatians" and Touchstone's "Unbreakable."

Also likely to be well fed at the holiday box office buffet are two holdovers -- Paramount and Nickelodeon's "Rugrats In Paris" and Columbia's "Charlie's Angels."

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 16, 2000-- "The Grinch" should steal first place from "Charlie's Angels" this weekend.

"'Grinch' is going to be number one," an insider predicts without having to think twice. "You can count on $30 million-plus, and it could even be much higher. The question is will the market expand? I believe that it can."
