It’s been five years since Spider-Man 3 killed the Sam Raimi Spidey trilogy and Sony decided to reboot the franchise with a whole new cast and a return to Spidey’s origins with The Amazing Spider-Man. Was it worth restarting the franchise or should more time have passed before another attempt?

Pretty much nothing coming out this week with the “biggest” release being American Reunion.

The greatest wedding band in the world, The Dan Band, burst onto the scene in Old School with their fantastic, and expletive filled, cover of Bonnie Tyler’s “Total Eclipse of the Heart” and have appeared in pretty much every Todd Phillips movie since, along with putting out two albums, a Bravo special and touring.

The Amazing Spider-Man dominated over the Fourth of July holiday but was down from the debuts of the previous Spidey trilogy.

Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny, Jack Frost, The Tooth Fairy and The Sandman must join forces to take on the evil Pitch, who is corrupting children’s dreams and threatens the entire world in this holiday’s big Dreamworks movie.

Aliens invade the Earth 65 million years ago and the only thing that can stop them are the native species, dinosaurs, in the upcoming motion comic from Yahoo, Barry Sonnenfeld and Grant Morrison.

The Amazing Spider-Man has been out since Tuesday and is doing extremely well and two more movies are opening this weekend.

Be honest, how many of you just know John C McGinley as Dr. Cox from Scrubs? He’s been in much more than that, going all the way back to Platoon and most recently in Burn Notice.

Terrorists, your game is through, because now you have to answer to, Gary Johnston and Team America.

Not much coming out this holiday week but one of Chris’ favorite movies, The Entity, is on Blu Ray this week along with a couple of interesting looking indie movies and some anniversary editions.
