Johnny Depp loses 5 year reign to Robert Pattinson on IMDB
Check it out! Robert Pattinson knocks 5 year IMDB leader Johnny Depp to take over the #1 Top Star of 2009 according to IMDB!!!!!
BEST OF 2009 'New Moon' Rocks MTV Canada's 2009!!!
It's hard to put into words just how jacked up we were for the sequel to the first "Twilight" movie. We obsessed over the various trailers for the vampire-vs.-werewolf flick, dissected every frame, and asked Twi-Hards what they thought. We would not let it go when it came to searching for definitive proof that Robsten (stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart) were indeed an item, and then we got all distracted by the many, many, many shirtless photos of new breakout hunk Taylor Lautner.
And that's all before the movie actually hit screens in November and smashed records with a $142 million opening weekend. And, of course, we're going to do it all over again this year in the ramp-up to "Eclipse."

Summit Entertainment's 'Hurt Locker' wins bigs @ National Society of Film Critics
(CBS) "The Hurt Locker" swept the awards bestowed by the National Society of Film Critics today. The Iraq war drama about a bomb disarmament crew took honors for Best Picture, Best Director Kathryn Bigelow and Best Actor Jeremy Renner.
French actress Yolande Moreau was named Best Actress for her portrayal of French artist Seraphine de Senlis in "Seraphine."
Mo'Nique was named Best Supporting Actress for her performance as the abusive mother in "Precious: Based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire."
The NSFC diverged slightly from other critics groups who have given Best Supporting Actor honors to Christoph Waltz for the Quentin Tarantino film "Inglourious Basterds." Instead, they split their award between Waltz and Paul Schneider in the Jane Campion romance "Bright Star."
The Best Screenplay award was given to Joel and Ethan Coen for "A Serious Man."
"The Beaches of Agnes" by veteran filmmakers Agnes Varda was named Best Nonfiction Film.
Olivier Assayas' "Summer Hours" was named Best Foreign Language Film.
The critics' technical awards were granted to "The White Ribbon" for Christian Berger's black-and-white cinematography, and - in what may be a first - the production design honors were won by Nelson Lowry for the stop-motion animated film "Fantastic Mr. Fox."
The National Society of Film Critics is comprised of members from media outlets in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston and Philadelphia. Their choices have rarely paralleled those of the Motion Picture Academy of Arts& Sciences. (Last year the group named the Israeli animated documentary "Waltz With Bashir" as Best Film, while the Oscar went to "Slumdog Millionaire.")
However, "Hurt Locker" has so far won Best Picture honors from critics' groups in New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Washington and Austin, and is nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Film (Drama).
"Box Office" names Twilight one of the 20 Most Influential films of the Decade!
The 20 Most Influential Films of the Decade
Avatar, Paranormal Activity, Twilight and The Dark Knight close out the list.
It has been a great decade for the exhibition industry. Box office numbers don’t lie: the movie business is alive and well. 2009 will reach the $10 billion milestone–a first for the industry.
We are headed into a brave new world full of digital screens, immersive 3D flicks and compelling new projects from talented filmmakers. These are exciting times.
Many films that embody the future of filmmaking were released this decade. BOXOFFICE looks at the most influential … for better or worse. These are the movies that broke box office records, started (or ended) trends, invigorated tried-and-true genres and even changed the way films are released to the public.
The new decade will be a challenge to the exhibition industry as our audience is baited by even more diverse media options. But there’s no need to worry. As long as films stay this ambitious and interesting, people will always show up to the movie theater.
A new (undead) franchise was born in November 2008 when it stunned box office prognosticators by opening in first place against Bolt, Quantum of Solace and Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa. Twilight ended its domestic run with more than $190 million in the bank and another $160 million internationally—and more importantly, a craze that hit Hollywood with more force than teen classics like The Breakfast Club. (You can even buy hand-painted Bella and Edward shoes.) The premise is so simple that writers across the world slapped their foreheads and groaned, “I wish I had thought of that.” An awkward teenage girl falls in love with a mysterious guy crushed on by every single girl at school. The good news is that the feelings are mutual. The bad news is that he’s a vampire who has to constantly restrain himself from sucking her blood. While teenage girls melted over the budding romance, their moms picked up on the abstinence undertones, assuaged that their daughters were mooning over a romance scripted by a married Mormon.
At the center of the storm are stars Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, both off the radar just 15 months ago and now front page news on every weekly tabloid where their “are they or aren’t they?” romance has been breathlessly analyzed with a fever heretofore reserved for A-listers like Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. It’s heartening advice for other burgeoning studios like Summit: why spend money for an established star when you can spend it establishing new ones (with contracts for sequels already signed). But if Twilight’s success seems easily duplicated, 2009 saw a legion of imitators trying to capitalize on the teen horror-romance, and it’s likely that nearly all of these would-be franchises will stall out after their first installment. Yet Twilight’s sequel New Moon opened to more during its first day of release than Twilight did during its entire opening weekend—and it has easily surpassed Twilight's cume. The third film, Eclipse, is one of the surest hits of July 2010, but even if it’s blotted out by the summer blockbuster sun, the franchise has left a lasting bite mark. — Phil Contrino
