Like Sitting in the Middle of the Movie Theater? That’s Gonna Cost You Extra Now
Movie theaters tickets have gotten steadily more expensive over the years, but this takes the proverbial cake: a Canadian theater chain has announced a new program where moviegoers will have to pay a surcharge to sit in the middle seats of each row.

Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Neighbors’ Moves in, Evicts ‘Spider-Man 2′
It turns out that 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' didn't need the Sinister Six to bring it down.
All that was required was Seth Rogen, Zac Efron and a very funny marketing campaign. 'Neighbors' not only opened at No. 1 at the box office, but it derailed its super-powered competition so dramatically that it may be difficult for it to fully recover.
Weekend Box Office Report: ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2′ Swings Into First Place
As expected, 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' opened the summer movie season in style, overcoming mixed reviews to dominate the top 10 and cause every other film's weekend gross to tumble.

Weekend Box Office Report: ‘The Other Woman’ Tops ‘Captain America 2′
After nearly a month on top of the box office, 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' got taken down by a bunch of funny ladies.

Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Captain America 2′ Throws His Mighty Shield
Like 'Iron Man 3' and 'Thor: The Dark World,' the question was never whether or not 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' would take the number one spot at the box office, but rather how much it would earn while sitting pretty at the top of the list.
Also, like its "Phase 2" predecessors, the second Steve Rogers adventure proved that people are still punch-drunk in love with the Avenger

‘SNL’ and Anna Kendrick Take on ‘The Little Mermaid’
Sometimes, 'SNL' creates a sketch that aims for a very specific demographic and just goes all-out in its attempt to win over that specific audience. We can argue as to whether or not this 'The Little Mermaid' sketch starring guest host Anna Kendrick is successful, but it's the kind of thing that was certainly designed to appeal to viewers who grew up with Disney, have a thing for 'Pitch Perfect,'
Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Noah’ Floods ‘Sabotage’
/strong>
Insert your own "when it rains, it pours" joke right here. Darren Aronofsky's instantly controversial biblical epic 'Noah' overcame mixed buzz to win the box office this weekend, catering to both religious audiences and film buffs who like weird movies from unique, picky directors.
But all was not well for everyone -- the latest film from a certain Hollywood action legend go
Batman’s 75th Anniversary: What Warner Bros. and DC Comics Have in the Works
Few characters have the pop culture clout of Batman, who has spent the better part of a century dominating comic books, the better part of a generation dominating movies, and the better part of a decade dominating video games. To geeks and businessmen alike, he's kind of a big, huge, massive deal. Now, Warner Bros. and DC Comics plan to celebrate the 75th anniversary of their biggest cash cow with
