Friday, June 12, 2009 at 4:51AM Week in Review: 'The Hangover,' Megan Fox, 'The A-Team'
Sequels, remakes, prequels...in the words of a famed 80s rock anthem, only the
names have changed. We had a lot of headlines dealing with franchises and potential franchises,
plus Megan Fox puts her foot in her mouth again.

Oh, and there's this little thing about The Hangover becoming one of the most productive
comedies...ever. Who knew that would happen? Yeah, it's very likely going to be one of the top ten
R-rated movies ever made, and it's on pace to just miss the top five grossing movies ever released
in June.
Here's what's cookin' this week:
The A-Team adds Liam Neeson and Bradley Cooper
Pixar developing a Monsters, Inc. sequel
A guy shows his loyalty, gets buried in Doctor Who fashion
Megan Fox mouths off about Middle America
The Hangover has the best non-holiday Monday (and Tuesday and Wednesday) of any movie this
year
Harrison Ford named the highest-earning movie star by Forbes
Mission: Impossible 4 looks like it's a go
Check out the trailer for Scorsese's Shutter Island
Fox looks to share the blame, wants Ridley Scott to direct Alien prequel
