A List Of Things Thrown Five Minutes Ago

MEATBALLS! CORN! MEGAN FOX! Even though we're in September, traditionally the beginning of awards-bait movie season, interesting to see that we have four movies all clearly aiming for commercial success this weekend, with each targeting a decidedly different demographic.

• Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs, which, despite vocal turns from Bill Hader, Anna Faris, and NPH, seems to be pitched squarely at kids. I certainly have some fond memories of the book from growing up, but the film's visual style seems too slick to square with the book. That said, it's getting solid reviews and there's a lack of kid-friendly fare out there.
• The Informant! which is aimed squarely at the market of folks who wonder "why hasn't there been a good comedy about antitrust law and price fixing?" I suspect a substantial portion of that market consists of folks reading this very blog.
• Jennifer's Body, which is an (apparently quite bloody) horror flick (minus) featuring a leading "performance" from Megan Fox (minus on acting, plus on visual) written by Diablo Cody (plus, but YMMV), also featuring J.K. Simmons, Amy Sedaris, and Amanda Seyfried (all plusses).
• Love Happens, which looks like Nights In Rodanthe minus 10 years, though it's always nice to see Judy Greer and Martin Sheen working.

What (if anything) is getting your box office dollar this weekend?
