B.O.: ‘Angels’ Flyin’ High
March 19, 2001 11:50am ESTHOLLYWOOD, Nov. 12, 2000 -- Girls ruled again as "Charlie’s Angels" held on to the top spot at the weekend box office for a second consecutive week, defeating the likes of Adam Sandler, Cuba Gooding Jr. and Val Kilmer. "Charlie’s Angels," starring Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu and directed by Joseph McGinty Nichol (aka McG), took in an estimated $25 million, according to estimates by Exhibitor Relations. Adam Sandler’s devil of a new comedy "Little Nicky" bowed at No. 2 with $18.6 mi

B.O. FORECAST: 'Angels' vs. Hell
March 19, 2001 11:50am ESTWOOD, Nov. 10, 2000 -- The battle between heaven and hell will be played out in cineplexes across the nation this weekend. And by that, we mean the box office war between last week's reigning champ, "Charlie's Angels", and this week's hot contender, Adam Sandler's "Little Nicky". Despite a mega $40 mil plus opening achieved by "Charlie's Angels" last weekend, Sandler's inexplicable star power -- and the fact that "Little Nicky" is the comic's first big outing since last year's "Big Daddy" -- cou

Rename That Film
March 19, 2001 11:50am ESTHOLLYWOOD, Oct. 25, 2000 -- It's a movie's identity and its first point of contact with the world. So is it any surprise that coming up (and sticking) with a proper film title can be tough. For instance, take "Lucky Numbers." The film, about the get-rich-quick scheme of a down-and-out weatherman (John Travolta) and his galpal (Lisa Kudrow) to rig the state lottery was at one time known just as "Numbers." Now maybe because it rolls off the tongue a little gentler or perhaps the new title better

Viva Keanu!
March 19, 2001 11:50am ESTSANTA MONICA, Calif., April 17, 2000 -- Keanu Reeves nominated for best actor? Impossible but true! The MTV Movie Awards 2000 nominations were announced today, proving once again that the lighting-rod network for American youth culture knows what kids like, even if it only has about 10 different music videos in its rotation. Truth be told, hipper-than-thou MTV's choices for the best of last year's film crop really aren't all that much hipper than the stuffy Academy Awards and Golden Globes, exce

ROLE CALL: Jet Flies to 'Matrix'?
March 19, 2001 11:50am ESTSANTA MONICA, Calif., April 5, 2000 -- Will Jet Li kick Keanu Reeves' sorry butt? Probably just wishful thinking on our part, but today's Hollywood Reporter does give us hope. The paper says action star Li (late of "Romeo Must Die") is about to be wooed by the filmmakers behind "The Matrix" to appear in the hit movie's upcoming two sequels. Reeves, for one, is already set to wear black again in the films (dubbed "The Matrix 2" and "The Matrix 3"). So are his cohorts from the original flick -- L

Hollywood launches off to Mars
March 19, 2001 11:50am ESTPASADENA, Calif. -- After nearly a week of trying to make contact with the $165 million Mars Polar Lander, scientists and NASA officials have all but given up the mission as a failure. Never an industry to shy away from big-money crap shoots, the motion picture community is putting a great deal of faith in a pair of Mars-related pictures that it hopes will generate substantially more interest and success than the recent NASA fiasco. Disney is putting a great deal of time and strength behind its

ROLE CALL: Trinity Ready For Trilogy
December 31, 1899 7:00pm ESTSANTA MONICA, Calif., April 18, 2000 -- It's amazing what a $171 million blockbuster can do for your career. A few years ago, Carrie-Anne Moss was toiling in straight-to-video movies and TV shows such as "Models Inc." This week, she's under contract for two upcoming sequels to "The Matrix." Word comes today from Variety that Canadian-born Moss will reprise the character of Trinity -- a role in which she was so good, she even had us believing that Keanu Reeves was a messianic hero. Meanwhile, Mo
