THE OTHER GUYS: WILL FERRELL’S REDEMPTION
Filed Under: Boxoffice > Mark Wahlberg > Money > Movies > The Other Guys > Will Ferrell
Will Ferrell can breathe a big sigh of relief because “The Others Guys” is set to be number one at the boxoffice this weekend. Opening day was 13.2 million and that’s expected to reach over 35 million by Monday. Will had a lot to lose because his last movie “Land of the Lost” (a real stinker) was a monumental flop. Salary negotiations for his upcoming films depended on how “The Other Guys” fared this weekend. Now his CAA agents can demand top dollar for Will again. Insiders agree that the fact that Will and Mark Wahlberg went all over the country to promote the movie made a big difference. They even had an online contest and the Galaxy theater in Chesterfield, Missouri won the honor of having a second red carpet premier of the film with the stars in attendance. (photo above)

DEAR JOHN KNOCKED AVATAR OFF THE TOP
Filed Under: Amanda Seyfried > Avatar > Boxoffice > Channing Tatum > Dear John > Movies
“Dear John” was number one at the box office this weekend – and ousting ”Avatar” is quite an accomplishment. Of course, it’s possible that lots of women went to see Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried while their boyfriends and husbands watched Super Bowl football, but the timing for a love story was definitely right.
