Over the course of December, we at ShockYa have been writing about our top 10 movie picks of 2011. Along with us, every other movie site has been recounting their favorite films, ranging from documentaries to comic book movies to action/adventure to romantic comedies. However, not many sites have been talking about the worst films. Enter The Hollywood Reporter. The Hollywood Reporter has compiled a list of their top 15 movie flops of 2011.The list is thorough, including films that you might have already forgotten about, like “Mars Needs Moms” and “Sucker Punch.” But there are also movies that were supposed to be tentpole films, like “Green Lantern,” “Cowboys and…

“Cowboys & Aliens” will saddle up to be released on Blu-ray and DVD December 6, just in time for Christmas. The special features on the DVD and Blu-ray include “Igniting the Sky: The Making Of ‘Cowboys & Aliens’, a featurette which includes interviews with Jon Favreau, Steven Spielberg, Ron Howard, Brian Grazer, visual effects companies Legacy Effects and ILM as well as stars Harrison Ford, Daniel Craig and Olivia Wilde; “Finding the Story–’Cowboys & Aliens,’ which features the filmmakers, writers and cast explaining how the film found its voice on screen; “The Scope of the Spectacle,” a look at the camerawork for the film and stuntwork by Terry Leonard and…

We’ve got a lot of new items hitting theaters this weekend. Of the four, Final Destination 5 will undoubtedly come out on top. Rocking more positive reviews than one would expect and a devoted fan base, the fifth installment looks to pull in at least as much as the fourth film, but likely a little more, perhaps about $30 million. Comedies haven’t faired too well recently, but there’s a chance the action element will give 30 Minutes or Less a bit of a boost. Odds are it won’t make nearly as much as Sony’s summer 2010 action/comedy release, The Other Guys, but it could be on par with Pineapple Express…

Sure, it’s fun getting early peeks at upcoming productions, but it’s a different story if those first looks are coming from anywhere else, but the studio in charge. Hearing that John Travolta, Chuck Norris and Jean-Claude Van Damme may be in The Expendables 2 from the Nu Boyana Studios CEO? Good. Seeing official images of Anne Hathaway, Henry Cavill and Rihanna in full costume for The Dark Knight Rises, Man of Steel and Battleship respectively? Awesome. A parody video by Miles Fisher starring the entire cast of Final Destination 5? Bloody fantastic! Amateur photos and video of folks hanging around the set of Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises? Now…

After a surprisingly close race last weekend, this weekend’s big winner should have more than enough breathing room. Rise of the Planet of the Apes is due out in 3,500 theaters as compared to The Change-Up‘s 2,913. Plus, we’re talking a superhero-sized production with strong reviews up against a more modest comedy with dismal ones; there really is no competition. However, Rise of the Planet of the Apes still seems comparable to something like Predators or District 9. Predators only opened in 2,669 theaters, but should Rise of the Planet of the Apes post a similar per theater average, it should wrap up its opening weekend with about $33 million….
