That is according to the business journalists at Forbes.

Hollywood films made crap money this past weekend!

According to reports, this weekend's earnings in the U.S. were the worst of the entire year.

In fact, it was the worst weekend in 5 years.

The highest grossing film was Nicolas Cage's shiteous Bangkok Dangerous at $7.8 million, which is much less than what was projected.

Looks like Nic just wasn't a draw at the theaters!

What kept U out of the movies this weekend?

Will we get to see McLovin kick Nic Cage's ass?

Nicolas Cage has been cast in the movie Kick-Ass.

Reports last week claimed that Christopher 'McLovin' Mintz-Plasse was about to sign on to the project as the son of a mobster.

Cage will play a former cop who wants to 'bring down a druglord and has trained his daughter to be a lethal weapon'.

Druglord could = mobster, right?

Sounds like a Cage vs. McLovin showdown to us!

Sweet!

Film stars Nicolas Cage and Kathleen Turner have settled their libel squabble in a London court today.

Remember, y'all, Cage was pissed that Turner claimed in her recent autobiography that he had twice been arrested for drunk driving and had stolen a dog.

Looks like Ms. Turner and her publisher now accept that the claims were false and should never have been published.

Turner and peeps agreed to reimburse all Cage's legal costs and make a substantial donation to a charity chosen by him to benefit the victims of elder abuse.

He probably wanted to remind Kathleen that she's only a year or two away from qualifying as "elder."

The stars of two of the biggest films this holiday season launched their legendary careers over a board game.

While playing Monopoly, Nicolas Cage suggested to then guitar player Johnny Depp that he try acting.

"There was something about him I thought was quite funny," Cage told the John Jay & Rich morning radio show. "So I introduced him to my agent."

The very next day Depp landed his first acing role in Nightmare on Elm Street.. even Cage admits in Hollywood "That doesn't happen," and that Depp is "probably the most lucky person I have ever met."
