Life for many can appear simple. But, in reality, it is full of complications. Cinema is a great outlet for exploring said details of people’s lives. There is quite a lot of human exploration within indie filmmaking. Sometimes, mellow storytelling can make for a marvelously engaging viewing experience. Lower budgets can be an opportunity to explore drama more personally. Look no further than the endearing set of films known as “The Surrogate Valentine Trilogy.”

“Where the Crawdads Sing,” Sony’s adaptation of the hit novel by Delia Owens and produced by Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine, earned 2.3 million in its Thursday preview screenings that began at 3 p.m. The film played at 3,150 locations on Thursday and will open in approximately 3,625 locations this weekend.
“Crawdads” opens new this week against Paramount’s animated family film “Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank,” which also had previews on Thursday starting at 3 p.m. It made 505,000 from 2,650 locations; it’s scheduled to open on approximately 3,400 screens this weekend. Both films are expected to fall behind “Thor: Love and Thunder” as it moves into its second weekend.
Sony is projecting a 9-10 million three-day opening weekend against a 24 million budget. And while “Crawdads” is aimed at a younger crowd, prominently featuring a new Taylor Swift song “Carolina” as a means of attracting those audiences, the film is also...

Disney/Marvel’s Thor: Love and Thunder will continue its reign atop the weekend box office in its second session, with on the low-end an anticipated 65 decline or 50M from its 144M opening.
The movie is easily heading past 200M in the next three days, and yesterday grossed an estimated 13.6M for a running total that’s just under 170M.
Pic’s first Tuesday, thanks to summer traffic mid-week, is ahead of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness by 8 which did 12.6M.
Thor 4‘s anticipated second weekend decline is in line with recent Marvel fare, i.e. Spider-Way: No Way Home (-67), Doctor Strange 2 (-67) and Eternals (-62).
Two smaller sized budget wide releases, Paramount/Nickelodeon’s animated Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank (45M production cost, 10M acquisition by the Melrose Ave. lot from Gfm Animation) and Sony/Hello Sunshine/3000 Picture’s 24M production Where the Crawdads Sing,...

“Chasers,” a half-hour scripted comedy starring Rob Huebel, has been given a pilot order from Comedy Central, a person with knowledge of the situation confirmed to TheWrap.
The pilot hails from Robert Ben Garant and Cathy Shim of “Reno 911!” and Propagate’s Kevin Healey. Shim will co-star and also co-write with Garant and Healey.
“Chasers” is described as being “set in the world of the after dark, independent news video hunters of Los Angeles. While these ‘independent filmmakers’ are considered just a notch below the paparazzi on the food chain, they have even less shame and nothing will stop them in their quest to hawk shocking footage to news outlets. There’s not a car crash, police chase, celebrity DUI, convenience store smash and grab, baby bear in a swimming pool, or taco truck fire they won’t race to. Every night out on the streets, there are winners and losers.

Ask Natasha Kingston (Yara Shahidi) who she adores, and she’ll answer astronomer Carl Sagan, whose presence hovers like Cupid over Ry Russo-Young’s winsome and intelligent teen romance “The Sun Is Also a Star,” based on the bestselling Ya novel by Nicola Yoon. Like Sagan, Natasha is rational and trusts only in the scientific method. Love, she insists, is “legit dead-ass not real” — or at least, it’s not provable — until Natasha cosmically collides with moony high schooler Daniel Bae (Charles Melton) when her baseball jacket embroidered “Deus Ex Machina” catches the would-be poet’s attention.
Alas, tomorrow, Ins is scheduled to deport Natasha, an undocumented Jamaican. Between appointments with her immigration lawyer (John Leguizamo), the strangers have one day to wander the city debating their destiny, during which Daniel takes his cues from the New York Times’ viral 2015 Modern Love column “To Fall in Love With Anyone, Do This.

"What if I told you I could get you to fall in love with me...?" Warner Bros has debuted the first trailer for a romantic drama titled The Sun Is Also a Star, the latest from director Ry Russo-Young. Adapted from the novel of the same name, the film is about a young woman who falls for a sweet-talking charmer on the day before she is to be deported back to her native country of Jamaica. Set in New York City, Yara Shahidi (from "Black-ish" and "Grown-ish") stars as Natasha, and Charles Melton as Daniel Bae, the guy who woos her. Also starring John Leguizamo, Hill Harper, Gbenga Akinnagbe, Camrus Johnson, Jake Choi, Keong Sim, and Cathy Shim. This looks like a gorgeous film, and I dig all the nerdy science and space talk in this. Might just be a winner based on the footage in here. Take a look.

Madonna is being sued for 10 million dollars for "promotion of homosexuality” during a recent concert in St. Petersburg, Russia. The anti-gay groups in the lawsuit are claiming they suffered “psychological stress and emotional shock" after seeing the superstar on stage. (Did these concert-goers not know who Madonna was before the show started?)
Melissa George (Alias, Grey's Anatomy) stars in the Cinemax original series Hunted, airing Fridays at 10 pm starting October 19.
Get ready for the second freaky promo for American Horror Story: Asylum. I have no idea what's happening in this clip but it scares the shit out of me!

Ok, so not impressed with the new trailer for Noboru Iguchi's Japanese horror comedy 'Zombie Ass: Toilet of the Dead' we posted up last week? Well you must be more of a breast person then. Luckily for you though filmmaker Francois Fujimoto has revealed a new teaser for his horror comedy 'Zomboobies'! The La shot horror project starring Cathy Shim ('Reno 911!'), Diana Toshiko ('Horrible Bosses'), Marisa Tayui ('Balls of Fury') and Judilin Bosita is an all Asian production and will be unleashed in Japanese a little later this year. Lovers of the gratuitous will be pleased to know that the new teaser (shown below) features bouncing boobies, hot busty Asian chicks dressed as nurses and a smattering of blood. And with a promise of seeing 'boobs doing things that boobs have never done before' from director Fujimoto what's not to like?...

So I pretty much look like a pervert today, but I suppose that’s all right. Judging from the trailers I’ve posted, I don’t think that assessment is unfair. Hot on the heels of the “Zombie Ass” trailer is the preview for director Francois Fujimoto’s “Zomboobies”, a film that combines zombies with, er, boobies. The whole thing looks utterly shameless, which, of course, is precisely why it’s getting plenty of attention from yours truly. I like to blame Troma for my tastelessness. I think this synopsis belongs to you: While conducting experiments to create “the perfect breasts” a group of doctors are transformed into Evil Mutant Creatures with an unstoppable hunger for Boobies! See hot action women fight to keep their perfect breasts out of these evil doctors’ mutant hands!!! When someone describes their movie using lots of exclamation points and the phrase “hot action women”, everyone on the planet wins.

Explorations of female sexuality have always faced considerably more resistance than those espousing the media dominating male sex drive, wherein a man who sleeps with numerous women (James Bond) is applauded. It’s a paradigm that really only flows in one direction and filmmakers have been expounding on that hypocrisy for ages. Some films turn the concept on its head in elegant ways while others do it with all the subtlety of a kick to the head. The People I’ve Slept With falls into the latter category, but it’s not without its charm.
Nikki (Karin Anna Cheung) likes sex. Whether or not society thinks that ladylike doesn’t really matter to her; she likes sex. Each night brings a different conquest which she catalogs with a small picture of the night’s stud memorialized with a nickname like “Mystery Man”.

A trailer has finally arrived for D. Kerry Prior's undead, horror-comedy, The Revenant. Our boy rochefort gave the film a glowing review form Fantastic Fest and after finally seeing some footage, I'm really looking forward to checking it out.

Officer First Class Bart Gregory is killed while fighting in Middle East. His body is shipped back to the United States and laid to rest, but before the lid can be put on his tomb, Bart inexplicably awakens in his coffin and climbs from his grave; confused, horrified--a moldy, putrefying living corpse--a Revenant.
The Revenant stars David Anders, Senyo Amoaku and Cathy Shim.
Trailer after the break.
Embedded video stripped, see full HTML version.

Question: I loved But I'm a Cheerleader, and I have watched Itty Bitty Titty Committee ten times now. Enough already! When is Jamie Babbit's next movie coming out?
― Tina, Columbia, MD
Jamie Babbit
Answer: Did you check out Babbit's 2005 feature, The Quiet, starring Elisha Cuthbert, Camilla Belle and Edie Falco? If not, the cast alone should be enough to send you to the video store.
I passed your question along to Babbitt, who told me:
I'm currently casting for my new film called Breaking The Girl. It's tonally in the vein of Body Heat, with lots of bi beauties and femme fatales.
