Will 'Dark Knight' hit the $500 million mark?
It may not be Batman, but Tropic Thunder just keeps rolling. The Ben Stiller Hollywood spoof will likely fend off a new round of newcomers this weekend, the biggest challenge coming from Vin Diesel's sci-fi adventure Babylon A.D. Look for Thunder to strike at about $16 million, while Babylon should do about $13 over the four-day holiday. Disaster Movie, the latest skewering of all things pop culture, should come in at third with $12 million, while the goofball comedy should debut low in the top 10 with ab

$10 M. Thunder! Ben Stiller Buys Riverside Duplex from Zabar Scion
There’s something so inoffensive and smiley about Ben Stiller that he can make phallus-in-the-zipper jokes (or write and direct a Hollywood blockbuster that heavily features blackface) but still come across as a really amiable fellow who likes to stay in close proximity to his aging parents. So it makes sense that he just spent $10 million on a duplex in a prewar orange-brick co-op on Riverside Drive in the West 80s, the same building that his parents, Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara, have lived in for year

'Bangkok' No. 1 at weak box office

Robert Downey Jr. plays Kirk Lazarus who plays a Black vietnam soldier in the new, Ben Stiller Film "Tropic Thunder". The movie sets a satirical tone towards race relations in hollywood again. The movie has opened to a nice 26 million dollars, over the weekend. It was even able to knock the Dark Knight off the spot for no.1 (although Dark Knight is No. 2, and with 471 million under its utiltiy belt, I might add ). It looks like controversy sells.
