The independent movie Juno, which continues to please audiences for its sardonic charm and impress industry observers for its financial good fortune, moved into the No. 1 spot at the box office on Monday. Its $1.4 million gross came from just 1,925 theaters, beating the daily totals of the blockbusters National Treasure: Book of Secrets ($1.3 mil) and I Am Legend ($1.1 mil) — both of which played in nearly twice as many venues as the quirky comedy.

The Fox Searchlight release, about a spunky, pregnant high schooler (Ellen Page), has grossed $53 million in five weeks, despite the fact that it expanded into wide release only last weekend (when it finished No. 2, behind National Treasure). It is nominated for three Golden Globes — Best Picture-Musical or Comedy, Best Actress-Musical or Comedy (Page), and Best Screenplay (Diablo Cody) — and its ongoing box office success reinforces its position as a possible Oscar contender.

If you haven’t seen Juno yet - you must RUN to the theater and see it!  Definitely the best movie I’ve seen in a long time!

Guy Ritchie’s movie, Revolver, has flopped in the U.S. Despite being re-edited for the American market, the film has taken in under $75,000 in its first twelve days of release.

Celebrity columnist, Roger Friedman has said that Madonna spends that on mascara. He added that it is a terrible movie that had been “roundly panned” by reviewers.

Anyone else a little nervous to see this one?  Remember the scary make-up on Heath Ledger?  Don’t get me wrong, I love Batman- the creepy factor might just be over the edge this time, though.

On another note, a lot of the scenes were shot on IMAX cameras- so the visual quality will be pretty incredible!

I didn’t think that I was going to be excited about this movie. I liked the tv show and I watch it whenever I see it on re runs, but I just thought that it should have stayed a tv show, but as time has gone by and I’ve heard and seen things about this movie, I’m getting kind of excited about seeing it!!

The movie, which has been filming for the past three months in NYC, has finished filming! There are a few inside apartment scenes that still need to be filmed and will be done so in a studio.

Sarah Jessica Parker was with the cast and crew for the rap party at the Royalton Hotel’s Brasserie 44 on Saturday.

Among those who were there, Lance Armstrong and producer Michael Patrick King along with Chris Noth.

The movie is set to release on May 30, 2008!! Want some details on the plot?

The New York Times — which reports the movie plot will take place over the course of the year — has offered these tidbits.

· Carrie Bradshaw will be working on the third book. (Though she sports an over-the-top wedding gown, there is no word whether she and Big will say “I Do!”)

· Charlotte (Kristin Davis) continues to dote on her family. Photos have shown her pregnant.

· Samantha (Kim Cattrall) has moved to L.A.

· Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) is still living in — and loathing — Brooklyn.

Do you guys plan on seeing this when it comes out?

Australian Who Magazine is reporting that 32-year-old Australian Supermodel Megan Gale has been cast as Wonder Woman in George Miller’s Justice League of America. AICN has confirmed the report with multiple sources, so this looks to be legit, and not just another one of the countless internet casting rumors.

Megan has only appeared in two films thus far: the 2001 Italian film Stregati dalla luna, and the 2005 Rob Cohen movie Stealth. She stands 5’10’’, has brown hair and green eyes. Gale seems to physically embody the Wonder Woman character much better than previously rumored actresses. Her age is also much older than most of the rumored cast, which some have jokingly referred to as the “Teen Titans”.

Here is Tom with a fat suit on for a cameo in the upcoming comedy, Tropic Thunder- directed by Ben Stiller & slated for a mid-2008 release. 

The nutty father of the adorable little Suri Cruise is believed to be playing a studio mogul in the movie, which also features appearances from Matthew McConaughey, Katie Holmes, & Tobey Maguire.  Looks like Tom has a gut feeling about this film. 

The cast looks pretty decent … would you wait to rent it on DVD?
