Box Office: Inglourious Basterds Scalps District 9

BuzzSugar — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 06:30:00 -0700

Quentin Tarantino's fans did not disappoint him this weekend, helping Inglourious Basterds rake in over $37 million at the box office this past weekend. Here's your fun revenue statistic of the day: it's the highest-grossing opening ever for a movie released in the second half of August. District 9 was knocked to the number two slot with $18.9 million while G.I. Joe took third, bringing in $12.5 million. The Time Traveler's Wife and Julie and Julia rounded out the top five.

Inglourious Basterds was the only new release to score major success this weekend; Shorts came in sixth place with $6.6 million while Alexis Bledel's Post Grad just barely cracked the top ten with $2.8 million.

Box Office: District 9 Invades at No. 1

BuzzSugar — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 08:15:25 -0700

Movie audiences favored the aliens and the action this past weekend as the Peter Jackson-produced extra-terrestrial film District 9 took the top spot with an estimated $37 million. In second place with $22.5 million was last weekend's big earner, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. The Rachel McAdams-Eric Bana romance The Time Traveler's Wife opened at No. 3 with $19.2 million, which is apparently "one of the best showings ever for a romantic drama in any part of the year." Julie and Julia and G-Force took the fourth and fifth spots respectively.

Elsewhere at the box office, Jeremy Piven's comedy The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard took in an estimated $5.3 million its opening weekend, putting it at No. 6, while the teen comedy Bandslam didn't quite make the top 10, grossing an estimated $2.3 million.

Talk about a comeback.

G.I. Joe: A Real American (Box Office) Hero

BuzzSugar — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 07:00:58 -0700

Did you know that G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra posted the highest opening for an August non-sequel on Friday? Well, now you know, and knowing is half the battle. Over the weekend, the movie grossed an estimated $56.2 million domestically, and, combined with overseas numbers, took in an estimated $100.3 million worldwide. As Variety points out, Paramount is having a stellar Summer this year: "Not only has the studio launched another franchise in G.I. Joe, it has reenergized the Star Trek franchise and continued successfully mining the Transformers property."

Julie and Julia also opened over the weekend and grossed just over $20 million, coming in second place. The animated guinea pigs in G-Force pulled in about half that but still came in at No. 3 at the box office. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince followed closely behind at No. 4 while Judd Apatow's Funny People "fell a steep 65 percent" in its second week, rounding out the top five with an estimated $7.9 million.

Heidi and Spencer Steal the Show at GI Joe's LA Premiere

PopSugar — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 10:30:56 -0700

Sienna Miller channelled old-Hollywood posing with her costars and riding around in the air with Jimmy Kimmel in a "super cage" at the G.I. Joe premiere in LA yesterday. Channing Tatum held Jenna Dewan close while she showed some leg, but it was another set of newlyweds who were trying to get all the attention. Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt took advantage of the audience to debut Heidi's new Playboy cover. They displayed bikini-clad Heidi covered in dirt, though she's not the only one known to strip down - Spencer's competing against Beckham in our Hottest Shirtless Guy contest, so make sure to cast your votes.

How To: Get Sienna Miller's Healthy Hollywood Glow

BellaSugarUK — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 07:30:00 -0700

At last night's Los Angeles premiere of G.I. Joe: The Rise Of The Cobra, Sienna Miller positively glowed on the red carpet. Considering she recently said that she'd be happy to wear a bin bag on these last legs of her gruelling promotional tour, she sure does cleans up like a champ when the event calls for it. I love her classic and glamorous Hollywood look complete with retro waves, tanned, matte skin, lined and defined eyes and bold, red lips.

FACE: Begin with a clean, dry face. Next, apply a moisturiser and a foundation that matches your skin tone. Blend well and set the foundation with a translucent powder. Lastly, use a large fluffy brush to buff skin to a flawless finish.
EYES: Sienna's eyes are simple to achieve. Start by blending an ivory shadow from the base of your lashes all the way to your lid. Then use a light to medium brown shade in the crease for depth. Fill in brows, curl your lashes and apply two coats of black mascara. Once it's dry, line your eyes with a black, liquid liner starting from the inner corner all the way to the outer corner. Extend the line and make it just a tad thicker on the ends for a dramatic, cat-like effect.
CHEEKS: For a nice, golden glow, apply bronzer with or without shimmer to your nose, forehead, temples, jawline and blend well. Then, with a gentle hand, use a delicate, pale pink blusher on the apples of your cheeks and down the center of your nose for a touch of warmth.
LIPS: Last but not least are your lips. Since this is the feature you'll want to accentuate most, make sure they're exfoliated and moisturised. Using a lip brush, apply a deep, brick (browny-orangey) red lipstick all over. For an even more come hither effect, dab a little bit of clear high-shine gloss in the center of your lower lip.

Supposedly Single Sienna Talks Balthazar and Apologies

PopSugar — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 15:30:32 -0700

Sienna Miller is still in NYC making the rounds to promote GI Joe. She joined Channing Tatum and Marlon Wayans yesterday for a visit to Fuse TV, where she came face to face with her character's doll she doesn't like. Sienna gave a recent interview to British GQ in which she discussed her love life and her still recent romance with Balthazar Getty. She said:

On her relationship with Balthazar: "[The relationship] probably looked awful. . . I probably seem like not a particularly nice person, not a girl's girl."
On people's perceptions: "I do think sometimes people get morally superior without understanding situations. And the situation I got into was not ideal, but it happened and if I could go back and be more responsible, I would. . . I probably would be less naive about ignoring the fact that people care. I've always kind of done exactly what my instincts said. I have a good brain on me, but I've never really used it when it came to making decisions about love, which has been a blessing and a curse."
On making amends: "I've made apologies to people I needed to, but I can't apologize to people I don't know for things they don't understand."
On her love life now: "A few dalliances, three months here and there, but I've never been like a shagger. . . I've actually been kind of single for the past year. I've had somebody on the end of the phone maybe, but I haven't been living with anyone or been in a proper relationship, and it's been really great. . . I'm completely on my own. I think I've grown up a lot."

Sienna and Balthazar have broken up and made up more times than most would care to remember, so it remains to be seen if their romance is really and truly over for good.

PopSugar — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 12:30:26 -0700

Sienna Miller and Channing Tatum are in the final stretch of their worldwide GI Joe press tour before it finally hits theaters in the US on Friday. After making the interview rounds in a range of outfits yesterday morning, Sienna met up with Channing and Marlon Wayans for a stop at 106 & Park. She grabbed dinner at the Waverly Inn last night, then was up bright and early today to join the rest of the movie's cast and ring the bell at the opening of the New York Stock Exchange. They've been all over the globe getting their film out there, but it sounds like Sienna's just about ready to call it a day.

Trend Alert: The Graduated Cone

FabSugar — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 07:50:11 -0700

There are many reasons why I'm smitten with Sienna Miller's Isabel Marant Fall 'fit.. Her ruched print dress is ultra rad and I can't take my eyes off those studded booties - hotness. Take note of the artistic graduated cone heel. This frame takes on a more triangular shape compared to regular cone heels. Less cylindrical, more severe, and way more sexy. I like it.

G.I. Joe Opens This Weekend: Are You Excited For It?

BuzzSugar — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 16:30:41 -0700

I'll admit it: I forgot about this G.I. Joe movie. I didn't realize until today that it's coming out this Friday, Aug. 7. This doesn't necessarily bode well for the action film, but then again, it does have a strong fan base already and is garnering some positive reviews.

Here's a synopsis: "An elite military unit comprised of special operatives known as G.I. Joe, operating out of The Pit, takes on an evil organization led by a notorious arms dealer."

Are you excited to see this popcorn flick? Or, do you just not care?
