I can’t believe I forgot to post these pictures of Victoria Justice the other day, what was I thinking? I’m sorry princess, I hope this doesn’t affect our nonexistent internet relationship in any way. Here she is at some sort of party over the weekend looking cute in her fake fur and red pants. Not exactly a very revealing outfit, I guess she’s mad at me, but I’ll take whatever I can get from this hottie.
This weekend on Twitter, most of our tweeting luminaries avoided addressing the obvious ( Paranormal Activity 3 ) and instead talked about Martha Marcy May Marlene , The Three Musketeers , and — my word — Johnny English Reborn . To the tweet machine!

Drake turned 25 this weekend, and he celebrated in Las Vegas at Club Tao with a big birthday party, and we have some of the photos below. His shirt looks like it was borrowed from the wardrobe of Biggie’s video for “Hypnotize,” and the glasses is a different look for him. Are you feeling this ensemble on Drake?

Who’da thunk it? As much as most of us probably laughed when we heard that a “Paranormal Activity 3″ was coming to a theater near us, thousands spent their money to check it out this weekend, making it a record-breaking film. Paramount’s threequel/prequel will have to settle with merely being the second- biggest horror debut ever, the eighth-biggest R-rated opening, and the top October launch. Tragic, I know. The $5 million film grossed a massive $54 million this weekend, which is a 35% jump from Paranormal Activity 2′s $40.6 million opening this time last year. The film had a massively front loaded weekend, the ninth-biggest on record, with a mere 2.06x weekend multiplier. Still, that was better than the 2.01x weekend multiplier for Paranormal Activity 2 last year (the sixth-smallest such multiplier). The picture played 53% under-25 and 54% female. Considering the film pulled just in $1.7 million more at midnight, the $26 million opening day (around $6 million more than Paranormal Activity 2′s $20.6 million Friday) and $14 million jump in total opening weekend compared to the last film, there is a clear growth in this series. Which probably means there will be a “Paranormal Activity 4″… The first film opened very slowly, with massive per-screen averages leading up to a pre-Halloween wide release that grossed $21 million against the opening weekend of the comparatively under performing Saw VI ($14 million). Paranormal Activity ended up with $109 million, while the sequel opened with a massive $40 million weekend but ended with just $84 million (a meager 2.1x weekend-to-final gross multiplier). Even if the third picture manages equally poor legs, it will still end up with $113 million. Whether or not the series has peaked with the third installment like Saw III, this uber-cheap franchise has been a licence to print money for the last three years and should continue to be so for the next few Halloweens. Paramount has scored a studio’s dream – blockbuster grosses on a franchise with minuscule costs. It’s already done $26 million worldwide, giving the film a massive (for a cheap horror film) $80 million worldwide debut. Come what may, they will be milking this series until the audience stops caring. Did you catch “Paranormal Activity 3″ this weekend? If not, does the movie’s opening weekend success make you wanna see it now? Source
‘Found footage’ sequel beats out ‘Footloose’ and ‘Real Steel’ and breaks record previously held by ‘Jackass 3D.’ By Ryan J. Downey Katie Featherston and Sprague Grayden in “Paranormal Activity 3” Photo: Paramount Pictures Moviegoers were feeling the Halloween “spirit” over the weekend. “Paranormal Activity 3” broke the box-office record for the biggest fall opening with an estimated $54 million debut, passing “Jackass 3-D” to become the highest-grossing September/October opening ever. Meanwhile, “The Three Musketeers,” “Johnny English Reborn” and “The Mighty Macs” all underperformed. Both “Real Steel” and the remake of “Footloose” held strong over the weekend. Hugh Jackman’s robot action adventure was #2 with $11.3 million for a $67.2 million total, with “Footloose” right behind at #3 with $10.9 million for a $30.9 million total. Roughly 55 percent of “The Three Musketeers” $8.8 million debut, which landed the film at #4 at the box office, can be attributed to its more expensive 3-D screening ticket prices. Co-star Milla Jovovich made entertainment news headlines with a flurry of tweets questioning the promotion effort behind the flick on the part of distributor Summit Entertainment, which also handles the “Twilight” franchise. “I think ‘summit’ have swept ‘3 Musketeers’, a grt family adventure film, under the rug in the US. Shame on them,” the actress declared in one of several tweets unleashed on Friday. The film, directed by Jovovich’s husband, Paul W.S. Anderson, was dismissed by most film critics. “An editorial mess, an atonal wreck, and a huge waste of cash from inception to release,” Scott Weinberg at Twitch wrote. “The Ides of March” rounded out the top five with $4.9 million. The George Clooney-directed political feature has earned $29.2 million to date. While the comedy “Johnny English Reborn” has done respectable business internationally, it made just $3.8 million during its first weekend in North American theaters. “The Mighty Macs” made just over $1 million, although it played in less than a third of the locations as “Paranormal Activity 3.” Lizzie Olsen’s “Martha Marcy May Marlene” got off to a strong start at just four locations in New York and Los Angeles, taking in a respectable per-theater average of $34,385. Lizzie is the sister of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. Next weekend’s new releases include Johnny Depp’s “The Rum Diary,” “Shrek” spin-off “Puss in Boots,” Justin Timberlake’s “In Time” and director Roland Emmerich’s “Anonymous.” Check out everything we’ve got on “Paranormal Activity 3” and “Footloose.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .

Remakes often suck — but when they’re total stylistic upheavals of the source material, I’m more optimistic. Would you see a whacked-out, space-age remake of a classic period piece like Little Dorrit ? I would! Or better yet, this weekend’s ridiculous, steampunk The Three Musketeers in 3-D? It puts the “rich” in Richelieu and the “dumbass” in Dumas. I dig it! Ahead, we investigate five other Victorian novels worth revisiting in a fulgent 3-D experience. Put on your special glasses, Heathcliff.
