Friday Box Office: Evil Eyes Number One

Milla Jovovich’s latest installment of shooting at zombies very, very slowly racked up another win as Resident Evil 3D easily dominated a sleepy box office. The dapper gents of Takers and the well-armed hit men of The American tussled over the number two slot while horny travelers and angry Mexicans filled out the rest of the top five. Your Friday Box Office is here.

9 First Impressions of Rainn Wilson’s Instant Cult Classic SUPER

James Gunn’s SUPER just concluded its Midnight Madness world premiere, and if there’s any early favorite on that list of bidding-war candidates coming out of Toronto. This would probably be the one. I’ll have more on this one later from the ground, but for now, some first — i.e. lasting — impressions of what promises to be the effed-up belle of the ball…

Why Yes, Ms. Blankenship Does Still Keep in Touch With The Karate Kid

Am I the only one who finds the strength to get out of bed every morning simply because Mrs. LaRusso from The Karate Kid is back in our lives? Randee Heller — who played Daniel’s mom in the ’80s classic and can currently be seen as Don Draper’s new office-affair-repellent-and-racist secretary, Ms. Blankenship, on Mad Men — spoke to Vulture today and revealed (to the delight of Karate Kid fans the world over) that she’s still in contact with her former screen son, Ralph Macchio. “We’ve been hooking up over e-mails and texting each other ever since the Karate Kid remake,” she said. “[I]t’s always, ‘Hi, mom!’ He calls me mom.” Aw.

Project Runway Recap: Cut My Life Into Pieces. This Is My Best Resort Wear.

That might be the first time I’ve started a Project Runway recap with a Papa Roach reference , but it won’t be the last. (Kidding.) Michael Kors harassed the designers into making resort wear in last night’s episode, and in a twist, Tim Gunn raised his arm like a sorcerer and made everyone pair up to sew each others’ garments. Ivy devolved into a shrieking hedgehog for a change, and some of the others were insufferable too. Let’s see how it all went.

Amanda Bynes Realizes That Twitter May Not Be the Best Idea for Her

Twitter may be going great for ex- SNL er Jenny Slate, but it hasn’t been quite as helpful to Amanda Bynes, whose erratic, 140-character tweets about retiring and unretiring caused some to furrow their brows in concern . Finally, Bynes has done what she should have done a long time ago: She deleted her account , and now @chicky is no more. Amanda, Miley Cyrus will be leading a support group at the Brentwood rec center at 2pm. There will be free tea. [ Buzzfeed via Videogum ]

Santa Claus is Coming to Kill in the Trailer for Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale

And you thought Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters was the craziest idea for a movie ever. The trailer for Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale has popped up online and it does for Santa Claus what Jack Frost did for snowmen, while also finding time to use every single Christmas-related one-liner you could possibly imagine. Sample, said ominously: “Santa is going to find out who’s naughty or nice.” Is he?

This is What Sue Sylvester’s Glee Wardrobe Rack Looks Like

Kevin McHale will have a dream sequence set to “Stronger.” Heather Morris will reenact “Me Against the Music.” Matthew Morrison will be forced to sing and dance to “Toxic.” The New York Times slideshow from behind the scenes of Glee’s highly anticipated Britney Spears episode has all of these revelations and other intriguing sneak peeks, but for me, none resonate more than a snapshot of Jane Lynch’s tracksuit-stuffed wardrobe rack. Taste the rainbow!

Everyone Welcome Back Manohla Dargis!

After a nearly two-and-a-half month hiatus, the gifted and beloved NY Times critic Manohla Dargis returns today with a pair of reviews, including a steadfastly tolerant glimpse at Joaquin Phoenix’s otherwise intolerable I’m Still Here : “Much of the movie involves Mr. Phoenix’s having, or more likely pantomiming, a meltdown, for which he puts on a really good show,” she notes, describing the star’s rejection of celebrity and rebirth as a rapper. “But the programmatic nature of his antics strongly suggests that he is self-consciously playing a role in a narrative, one that isn’t simply about him.” This calls for a toast! Coffee mugs up… [ NYT ]

Weekend Forecast: It’s Resident Evil: Afterlife’s World, Joaquin Phoenix is Just Living It

Unless you live in a major market and want to sample Joaquin Phoenix’s coprophilic hip-hop narcissist fantasia (no, that’s not a recommendation), it might be worth just forgoing this weekend at the movies. Don’t take my word for it, though; see the sad pickings after the jump, with one (negotiable) exception.
