Movies

Ever wonder what the nation's number one movie was on the day you were born, or on any date? Now you can easily find out thanks to a web page called playback.fm.

Summer is officially over, September is here, and the movies stink. While the big releases and heavy-hitters of the fall movie season make the festival rounds or rev up their marketing campaigns, audiences have to tough it out and wade through a lot of not-so-good movies. Welcome to September. It’s like this every year. Get ready for an excruciating month at the movies and at the box office.

All summer movie seasons end with a whimper and 2015 was no different. The final weekend of August was a pretty sad display across the board, with Straight Outta Compton nabbing the number one spot by default while just about every new release faltered. You know it’s a slow weekend when a movie promoted exclusively to faith-based audiences nabs the number two spot.

One of the best parts of the job I have is interacting with people.  Hearing what they have to say, reading what they think, and sharing my own stories.  That's part of what our daily Enquiring Minds surveys are about..... they're also about excuses to get you free stuff.

According to a new study, newly married couples who watch five romantic comedies together a month are HALF as likely to get divorced in the first three years of marriage. The catch is, you also have to DISCUSS the movies afterward, and compare the relationships to your own.

You love ‘Frozen’, but you've already seen the movie and listened to the soundtrack an infinite amount of times. What to do? Well, just keep counting down the days until March 13, when an all-new ‘Frozen’ adventure—‘Frozen Fever’—opens in theaters with Disney's ‘Cinderella’.

The massive success of the ‘Despicable Me’ films have created a monster. Monsters, actually. Well, cute, yellow, strange little monsters that countless children (and some adults) all over the world have fallen in love with. Yeah, ‘Minions’ is going to be huge and it’s all going to be thanks to those little guys. However, the presence of a major star like Sandra Bullock can’t hurt and Universal has released the first images of her supervillain character, Scarlet Overkill.

Every day I rack my brain to try to think of things for you and I to talk about.  I see what I do on the air as a way of conversing with you - but most of the time it's just me talking.  So with our surveys, I ask, and you answer.

As is the case every year, 2014 had its share of blockbusters, bombs, and surprises at the box office.
