Dec 17 2007 'I Am Legend' Wins Weekend, 'Alvin' Does Far Too Well

1. I Am Legend - A massive budget, computer effects, and the Fresh Prince are always a surefire hit, bringing in $76.5 million. Now if someone could only explain why.

2. Alvin and the Chipmunks - With a $45 million weekend, it's finally the definitive proof that there is no God. Or if there is, he loves shit-eating jokes, which might be worse.

3. The Golden Compass - This weekend, America made an important choice: talking polar bears or talking chipmunks? In short, the polar bears lost, making only $9 million, and immediately blew it all on fish.

4. Enchanted - Seriously, this is still making $6 million a weekend? How many talking animal movies is it going to take to knock this out of the top five?

5. No Country for Old Men - If you know how good the Coen Brothers' latest is, it will infuriate you to know that, with $3 million, it made 15 times less than Jason Lee's computer-animated castration.

As you can tell from his face, Javier Bardem really wants you to go to NoCountryForOldMen.com and watch the restricted trailer to the Coen Brothers' latest. What Javier Bardem's vacant stare won't tell you, however, is that the site has some jackassed age-detection system that often won't let you in, even with a valid ID. Luckily, you can see the new images here and the trailer below the cut, and the only age verification I ask is that you can correctly identify a couple Nirvana tracks.

Brains!

This looks like it could be the darkest Coen Brothers movie yet. Plus it has Tommy Lee Jones? And appears to have a scene where a guy gets his brains blown out with an air compressor? Count me in.

Oh, and maybe I could get a hold of that air compressor so I could go back and watch Pirates 3 again.

UPDATE: I couldn't get the video to embed correctly, but you can watch the trailer here
