Beverly Hills Chihuahua opens today.  I plan on seeing it here:

Yep, it’s come to this folks.  Says Hollywood Reporter: “It’s looking like a dog of a weekend at the box office. Disney’s dog, to be exact, as the studio unspools “Beverly Hills Chihuahua” amid expectations that the live-action with talking dogs feature could fetch up to $30 million during its opening weekend.”

“Unspool”?  Where was your cutesy dog-related verb on that one?  Anyway, I say $20 million, tops.  Still, this is a movie about f-cking rapping chihuahuas we’re talking about here. God help us. Also opening:

Blindness: City of God director Fernando Meirelles’ parable about the blind leading the blind, being protested by the blind.

An American Carol: Chris Farley’s brother is in a movie for some reason.

Flash of Genius: Greg Kinnear presents: Real Flash of Geeeee-niu-uuss / Mr. Inventor-of-the-Intermittent Windshield-Wiper-Guy…

How to Lose Friends and Alienate People: Simon Pegg, Kirsten Dunst, and Megan Fox star in a movie where someone works at a fashion magazine.  At this point, I’m pretty sure there are more movies about people who work at a fashion mag than there are fashion mags.

Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist: “Norah”?  No one’s named Norah anymore.  They just picked that because it alliterated.  Strangely, “Norah’s” is “Sharon” backwards.
