Weekend Box Office Report: ‘The Heat’ and ‘White House Down’ Play Second Fiddle to Pixar
What happens when two new releases that look like sure-things smash into the unstoppable wall that is a Pixar movie? Well, you get one second place hit and one severe disappointment.

Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Monsters University’ Schools ‘World War Z’
Zombies may be really hot right now, but there's one thing that is (and probably always will be) a bigger deal: Pixar. Brad Pitt's 'World War Z' performed quite well in its opening weekend, but even the biggest zombie movie of all time couldn't keep pace with 'Monsters University.'
Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Man of Steel’ Soars to Number One
After months of feverish anticipation and a marketing campaign that left everyone at ScreenCrush practically speechless, 'Man of Steel' has arrived (amidst a flurry of mixed reviews) and taken its place at the top of the box office chart.

‘White House Down’ Clip: Watch Out! President Jamie Foxx Has a Rocket Launcher
Few summer movies look as fun as 'White House Down.'

SNL Wishes You a Happy Mother’s Day With 1-800 Flowers
Since it's produced so quickly, SNL will never not take advantage of any holiday that arrives near its air date. That meant that last night's episode saw a handful of mom-themed sketches in honor of Mother's Day!

SNL: Zach Galifianakis Kills With His Opening Monologue
Some SNL hosts just feel like they were born to be on that stage and Zach Galifiankis is one of them. Rather than do a traditional monologue, he performed six minutes of his oddball, avant garde stand-up comedy. It was a great reminder that he may be a big movie star now, but he's still one of the great modern comedians.
You’ve Got to Watch SNL’s Fake New Balance Commerical
Even after all of these years, SNL does fake commercials better than everyone else. However, last night's New Balance commercial parody is the cream of the crop -- it's hard to remember the last time the show made a fake ad that was this funny and spot-on. Check it out below.
