    • Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner on ‘The Bodyguard’ Bond

      Photo by Getty ImagesWhitney Houston's co-star from "The Bodyguard," Kevin Costner, will speak at her funeral this weekend. And that speaks to the special bond the two developed over their blockbuster movie.

      The 1992 movie was a hit, and the song "I Will Always Love You," became Houston's signature anthem. The film starred Houston as a megastar threatened by a stalker, with Costner playing a Secret Service agent sent to protect her. The movie struck a note with fans, grossing $400 million worldwide. And the movie soundtrack is the most successful of all time.

    • Photo: 20th Century Fox/Columbia PicturesLast weekend, four films scored big on the way to some record-breaking box-office numbers, with "The Vow" taking the wedding cake. It was the first nonholiday weekend in history that four flicks individually made more than $20 million upon debut. Since there are only two films opening wide this weekend, the chance of repeating that feat is not good.

      What is good, though, is the broad audience the two films opening this weekend will likely please. One film alone spans three different genres, and the other is a sequel to a film that grossed more than $115 million. But with two such crowd-pleasers vying for your ticket sales, how can you possibly decide? Worry not; we boil down the choices below and predict what kind of fans will enjoy each flick.

      If you see only one movie about the Belgian bovine hormone mafia this year, make it "Bullhead."

      The film, which was nominated for a best-foreign language Oscar, opens with a tough in a leather jacket intimidating a terrified citizen. Only instead of taking place in some blighted bodega, the shakedown happens in a rustic Flemish cattle farm. And instead of demanding protection money, the thug, Jacky Venamersenille (Matthias Schoenaerts), is bullying the farmer into juicing his cattle with illegal steroids.  Jacky is a hulking beast of a man who not only pushes the stuff but also dopes himself up with a bewildering variety of growth hormones. The reason why becomes horrifically clear as the movie's plot unfolds.

    • ‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’ Hacks Away at History

      Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter(Photo: 20th Century Fox)This is certainly not the Abraham Lincoln from the history books.

      Then again, the title for the new movie "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" makes it clear this will not be just a documentary on the 16th president of the United States.

      The recently released trailer for the 3D horror-action film confirms it, with the preview offering a collage of the familiar and the far out.  Lincoln is shown in his trademark top hat and beard, but he also wields an axe he's not afraid to use.  Watch the trailer below:

    • Meryl Streep Loses Shoe Onstage

      Photo: Eamonn McCormack/WireImageMeryl Streep is a world-class actress, and that was on full display Sunday at the BAFTAs -- the British version of the Oscars. But getting to the stage to collect her best-actress award for "The Iron Lady" proved to be a misstep, literally.

      As she strode to the stage, the 62-year-old lost her shoe. Luckily, Colin Firth, who presented the category, was onstage and at the ready to rescue the star.

      The white knight rushed in, picked up the wayward pump, and presented it to the actress. The Oscar winners then embraced, and Streep said, "Thank you so much! That couldn't have gone worse!"

    • Dwayne Johnson: The Sequel’s Champion?

      Dwayne JohnsonDwayne Johnson in 'Journey 2: The Mysterious Island' (Photo: Warner Bros. Pictures)Over a decade ago, Dwayne Johnson -- or "The Rock" as he was then billed -- left the world of professional wrestling behind and made his big-screen debut in "The Mummy Returns," the sequel to a movie that starred Brendan Fraser.  And this weekend, Johnson headlines "Journey 2: The Mysterious Island," a sequel to a movie that starred Brendan Fraser.

      When you look over his filmography, Dwayne Johnson has actually starred in a number of film that were sequels to movies he wasn't originally in.  He was in 2005's "Be Cool," the sequel to "Get Shortly."  He starred in "Race to Witch Mountain," a sequel/remake hybrid of "Escape to Witch Mountain."  And last year he had the biggest hit of his career in "Fast Five," the fifth installment of the "Fast and Furious" franchise.
