Edison Force, starring Justin Timberlake, Kevin Spacey, and Morgan Freeman went straight to video after being delayed and ultimately panned. Timbo (That’s right, I just came up with a nickname for Justin!) is also slated to appear in other less-than stellar flicks, including some turd called Southland Tales. But I don’t wanna spoil that for ya. Just read the piece and let it speak for itself.

(Anyone besides the Mayor of Simpleton get that joke? Didn’t think so. Sigh.)
Based on Sunday’s estimates, courtesy of boxofficemojo.com:
1) Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest: $62.2 million ($258.2 million, second week)
All thing’s considered, a 50% dropoff in your second week isn’t bad when your movie still takes in $62 million. So when’s the point where people realize, “Man, that movie wasn’t any good”?
2) Little Man: $21.7 million (first week)
There’s a guy in my fantasy baseball league who named his team the Baby Face Finsters. He is not amused by this abominable misappropriation of his mascot.
3) You, Me and Dupree: $21.3 million (first week)
Eventually, a series of shots of Kate Husdon wearing those skin-tight tangas will hit the Web. Download those instead.
4) Superman Returns: $11.6 million ($163.6 million, third week)
That giant thud you just felt was the hopes of the Warner Brothers brass being able to hide the losses of “Poseidon” with the receipts from “Superman Returns” crashing to the ground. Get your resumes ready, WBers. And don’t even think about looking for a job at Paramount.
5) The Devil Wears Prada: $10.5 million ($83.6 million, third week)
Making as much money as “Superman Returns,” at only a seventh of the price. You read that right: “Prada” cost one-seventh as much as “Superman.” Meryl rulz.
Involving a premise as totally bizarre as it sounds, “The Amazing Screw-On Head” is based on the comic book by Mike Mignola, creator of “Hellboy.”
“The Amazing Screw-On Head” takes place in the 1800s…a time, we discover, when President Abraham Lincoln’s top spy is a bodyless head known only as Screw-On Head. When arch-fiend Emperor Zombie steals an artifact that will enable him to threaten all life on Earth, the task of stopping him is assigned to Screw-on Head. Fortunately, Screw-On Head is not alone on this perilous quest. He is aided by his multitalented manservant, Mr. Groin, and by his talking canine cohort, Mr. Dog.
Yes, it’s animated.
It also features the voices of Paul Giamatti, Patton Oswalt, David Hyde Pierce, and Molly Shannon, and you can watch the pilot episode right here. The only thing is that, at the moment, there’s nothing but a pilot; Sci-Fi hasn’t picked up the show, and they’re waiting to get responses from folks who’ve watched the pilot. Help the cause, won’t you…? I have no idea why it’s being pitched to Sci-Fi rather than the Cartoon Network, since it’s hilarious enough to be a perfect fit for Adult Swim, but, hey, it’d be nice to see this show anywhere. It’s awesome.
BCI, a subsidiary of Navarre Corporation, has the rights to release a bunch of stuff from the old Filmation animation archives…and, just in time for Halloween, TVShowsOnDVD.com announces that BCI are totally going to make the YEAR of a bunch of kids who grew up during the ’70s with this release:
Proving once again that Hollywood incorrectly believes itself to be utterly bereft of original ideas, Disney has decided to unnecessarily remake the just-barely-classic ’80s film, “Adventures in Babysitting.”
The original starred Elizabeth Shue, who would later go on to depress the hell out of us in “Leaving Las Vegas,” but the new version will find Shue’s shoes (c’mon, you saw it coming, surely) filled by former “Cosby” kid Raven-Symone. You know, I don’t really have any problem with Symone in the role; I just think it’s obnoxious that Hollywood is taking movies that aren’t even 20 years old yet and are trying to remake them.
