Bridesmaids will probably come first in the box office after is been out for a while. Bridesmaids biggest competition will be Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Jumping the Broom may drop down in the box office because a lot of people say it is not as funny as the commercial makes it seems.

                       Eastwood and Beyonce Discussing 'A Star Is Born'

Clint Eastwood and Beyonce are talking about making a movie together. They are talking about remaking A Star Is Born, a 1973 movie. It might be remade into a musical. Beyonce is going to be the star of the movie. There has been no finalization on the movie.

Beyonce is an ok actress, When she did the movie Obsessed she was ok. The was not all that. She might be better in this movie because it is going a musical. She will be able to sing more than act. I have never seen or heard of the movie A Star Is Born but it sounds like a movie Beyonce will be good in.
