Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Conquers the Universe

Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Lucy’ Takes Down the Mighty ‘Hercules’
This weekend saw two movies named after their lead characters go head-to-head. In one corner, you have 'Lucy.' In the other, 'Hercules.' If you asked the average person who would win in a battle between Dwayne Johnson and Scarlett Johansson, most would probably side with the guy whose nickname is "The Rock." But the box office this weekend went in a completely different direction.

Bill Murray Crashes a Bachelor Party and Proves He’s Still Awesome
Bill Murray only gets cooler with age. Sure, the legendary actor may have gotten pickier with his choice of roles in in recent years, but he's made up for his reduced screen time by being the Most Awesome Guy On The Planet, appearing in random places and spreading oddball joy wherever he goes. The latest incident involves a bachelor party in Charleston, South Carolina, which Murray crashed to deli

Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Godzilla’ is King of the Box Office
Everyone expected 'Godzilla' to take the number one spot at the box office this weekend, but few people saw it doing business that rivals 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' and 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2.'

Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Neighbors’ Moves in Next Door to Spider-Man, Wreaks Havoc
It turns out that 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' didn't need the Sinister Six to bring it down. All that was required was Seth Rogen, Zac Efron and a very funny marketing campaign. 'Neighbors' not only opened at number one at the box office, it derailed its super-powered competition so dramatically that it may be difficult for it to fully recover.
Weekend Box Office Report: ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2′ Swings Into First Place
As expected, 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' opened the summer movie season in style, overcoming mixed reviews to dominate the top 10 and cause every other film's weekend gross to tumble.

‘Super Troopers 2′ is Finally Happening…For Real This Time!
'Super Troopers' was a modest success when it was released back in 2001, but time has been kind to it.
