Clint Eastwood, Septuagenarian
August 16, 2001 10:13am ESTHOLLYWOOD, May 31, 2000 -- Guess there's something to be said for that sun-burnt, leathery look. Clint Eastwood, onetime municipal politician, Oscar-winning director/producer and all-around movie tough guy, turns an inconspicuous 70 this very day, looking just as he did in his 60s and 50s. Eastwood, whose iconic credits include 1971's "Dirty Harry," has faltered rarely at the box office since making it big with 1964's "A Fist Full of Dollars." Next up: Eastwood's upcoming space actioner, "Space

B.O. ANALYSIS: This Weekend's a Tough Call
May 08, 2001 4:19am ESTSANTA MONICA, Calif., August 2, 2000 -- Predicting this weekend's box office is enough to drive anyone a little "Nutty." If Eddie Murphy's "Nutty Professor 2: The Klumps" has big legs, it stands to hold on to the top spot. The PG-13-rated comedy sequel from Universal and Imagine Entertainment could drop 50 percent from last weekend's $42.5 million opening and still place first with around $21 million. Directed by Peter Segal, it stars Eddie Murphy, Janet Jackson and Larry Miller. Columbia's open

May 08, 2001 4:19am ESTSANTA MONICA, Calif., September 10, 2000 -- Moviegoers' eyes were on "The Watcher" as Hollywood's fall season got off to an unexciting start.

B.O. ANALYSIS: 'Bring It On' Could Bring It Back
May 08, 2001 4:19am ESTSANTA MONICA, Calif., August 31, 2000 -- It's cheerleaders vs. immortals this weekend, and insiders are betting the beauties will beat the beasts.
