The numbers are in for Watchmen here at the Reject Report — and as expected it was a very big weekend for DC superheroes, again. Number one at the box office for a weekend box office haul of $55.6 million — the best so far in 2009. Not a record, though. It needed around $71 million to be...

Well, once again I look dumb here at the Reject Report, and it’s all because of the Jonas Brothers. You know that Jonas Brothers movie that I had picked to win the weekend? Well, it won Friday night with a haul of only $4.9 million, and then it promptly sank like a stone. In fact, after Friday...

Well, it’s all about the Jonas Brothers this weekend, both at 3-D movie houses and here at the Reject Report. I mean, really, that’s the only excitement in store at the box office — unless you count Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, which is the other new release this weekend....

Well, you might say that we’re all “Fired Up” about this weekend’s movies at The Reject Report. Uh, no. Actually, this looks to be a down week, with only two new major wide releases served up by the folks from Maxim and, ahem, Tyler Perry. What do you expect? This is February...

Well, not only was Friday the 13th a hit, it was a big hit. You might even say it slashed the competition (pardon the pun). It’s $42 million smackeroos for Jason Voorhees and the gang, as of Sunday. What’s more, this whole weekend is going to set a President’s Day holiday record. I...

Welcome to the Reject Report for the weekend of Friday, the 13th. We have a special “Bad Timing” edition of the report to bring you, and it is all because of the release of the movie Confessions of a Shopaholic, which rolls out in theaters the very same week that we get big bailout news ...

Well, the story this weekend was the big stink at the box office made by the Pink Panther 2, and not in a good way, either. Any hope of a challenge to He’s Just Not That Into You went up in smoke once the reviews and the bad buzz got out about this movie, and as a result we have our first majo...

Wow, I’m in a state of shock, here, folks. I knew it was going to be a close race this weekend at the box office but I didn’t think the American moviegoing public would make fools of themselves yet again by giving Paul Blart: Mall Cop a second straight weekend at the top of the box offic...

Welcome to another Reject Report, and get ready for a big rant from me this week. The story this weekend, of course, is the announcement of the Oscar nominations made on Thursday morning. As a result, this weekend sees a glut of nominated movies, all going wide in hopes of getting that coveted Oscar...

Well, my fears were confirmed. I had heard these stories that Paul Blart: Mall Cop was tracking well and was possibly going to win the box office, even though a lot of other people were predicting and even hoping that other movies would do better. Anyway, all the predictions are down the drain, beca...
