Jackie Robinson Biopic ’42′ Clobbering ‘Scary Movie 5′ at Box Office

The Jackie Robinson biopic "42" connected with $9.1 million in its box-office debut Friday, and is heading for home with a record-breaking $27 million three-day total in sight.

The weekend's other wide opener, horror spoof "Scary Movie 5," was running second after opening to a soft $5.5 million Friday, which puts it on track for a disappointing $14.5 million first weekend. Holdovers "The Croods," "G.I. Joe Retaliation" and last week's No. 1 film, "Evil Dead," held the next three spots.

Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros.' "42" was a crowd-pleaser and received a rare "A+" CinemaScore from first-night audiences at 3,003 theaters. The positive word of mouth should help it stay on its hot pace Saturday and Sunday and easily post the biggest opening ever for a baseball movie. The previous best was the 2006 comedy "Benchwarmers, " which had a three-day total of $19.6 million. The 2011 Brad Pitt movie "Moneyball" debuted with $19.5 million.

Yes Lindsay Lohan, Letterman Totally Wants to Talk About “Scary Movie 5″

Literally more than twenty minutes had passed without the world hearing what Lindsay Lohan had been up to lately, so she took it upon herself to correct the situation by looking confused and awkward on the Late Show with David Letterman. Thanks, Lindsay. Looking surprisingly well for somebody who probably spent the night face-down in a dumpster, Lindsay [...]

David Letterman Grills Lindsay Lohan: ‘Aren’t You Supposed to Be in Rehab?’ (Video)

Lindsay Lohan appeared a tad uncomfortable with David Letterman's direct line of questioning about her upcoming return to rehab during Tuesday's appearance on "Late Show."

"Aren't you supposed to be in rehab now?" Letterman asked the "Scary Movie 5" star, whose laughter came to an immediate halt as soon as she comprehended the inquiry.

"Do you not watch anything that goes on," Lohan responded. "What are you, a tabloid now?"

She reluctantly satisfies Letterman's curiosity by explaining that on May 2 she'll begin a three-month treatment in a rehabilitation clinic -- a similiar facility to which she has checked into "several" times before.

"How will this time be different? What are they rehabbing, first of all? What is on their list?What are they going to work on when you walk through the door," asked Letterman.

"We didn't discuss this in the pre-interview," a visibly uncomfortable Lohan asked. 

The interview gets more awkward when Letterman asks if she has "addiction problems."

Watch Lindsay Lohan Get Told What to Do by the ShamWoW guy in ‘InAPPropriate Comedy’ Trailer (Video)

Lindsay Lohan's meteoric career comeback continues!

Fresh off her starring turn opposite porn star James Deen in "The Canyons," Lohan is appearing in "InAPPropriate Comedy," which is helmed by one of the most esteemed modern directors in Hollywood -- Vince Offer, aka the ShamWoW guy.

Judging from the trailer, Lohan spoofs her own existence in the movie, playing a starlet who, weary of the paparazzi shooting her, decides to shoot back -- with considerably more firepower.

"It isn't just crazy," the narrator of the "InAPPropriate Comedy" trailer promises of the film. "It's downright messed up." Which appears to translate into as many racial stereotypes as Offer can cram onto the screen, along with a bunch of guys careening into a vat of sewage, which seems appropriate.

"InAPPropriate Comedy," which Rob Schneider, Michelle Rodriguez and Adrien Brody somehow also got roped into starring in, hits theaters on March 22. If the theaters are smart, they'll hit back.
