In Theaters This Week 15 August

"Tropic Thunder," an R-rated comedy from DreamWorks/Paramount, directed by and starring Ben Stiller is going to knock down "The Dark Knight" from the No.1 spot this weekend. The movie which a bit controversy [keyword: retard], violent war movie-within-a-comedy is set to be the box-office champ. Another new film opening is Warner's animated feature "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" will definitely getting the silver medal, with the support of the hard-core fan base of the 'Star Wars' franchise. It looks to me that the third opening "Mirrors" - a horror movie starring by Kieffer Sutherland [TV Series: 24] will settle for the 4th spot indeed as "The Dark Knight" will get the bronze medal.
My predictions this weekend 1) Tropic Thunder USD$42million 2) Star Wars - Clone Wars USD$20million 3) Mirrors USD$10million - Ibrahem.S

In the action-comedy "Tropic Thunder," Ben Stiller plays pampered action superstar Tugg Speedman, who is cast in the biggest, most expensive war movie ever produced. He sets out to Southeast Asia with a "Who's Who" of celebrity co-stars. They include Kirk Lazarus (Robert Downey Jr.), an intense, three-time Oscar-winning actor; Jeff Portnoy (Jack Black), star of the popular gross-out comedy franchise "The Fatties"; multi-platinum hiphop-star-turned-entrepreneur-turned-actor Alpa Chino (Brandon T. Jackson); and first-timer Kevin Sandusky (Jay Baruchel). Soon after the production begins the actors are thrown into a real-life situation and are forced to become the fighting unit they're portraying, in order to find a way out of the jungle in one piece.
