Heat Ledger Dark Night Record Midnight Madness
So goes Plano, Texas, so goes the movie nation: The Dark Knight is one hot ticket.
The latest Batman movie, inspiring thousands of sold-out screenings and countless desperate hunts for seats, grossed a record $18.5 million at midnight screenings, studio estimates said today.
"That's just a portion of the day," marveled Media by the Numbers' box-office analyst Paul Dergarabedian.
"I think this could break a lot of records," he said. "Yesterday, I was hedging my bets, but now all bets are off." [more...]

James Taylot Turned 60
He's got a friend
Singer James Taylor celebrated his 60th birthday surrounded by family and famous friends at Tanglewood over the weekend. The belated bash - JT's actual birthday was in March - came as a surprise to the audience, who figured something must be up when John Travolta suddenly appeared onstage. "James, we know your birthday was last spring, but you know how hard it is to get family and friends together," the actor said, interrupting Taylor's July Fourth performance, "so here we are, nearly 20,000 of your closest friends to tell you 'We love you.' " Travolta then introduced cellist Yo-Yo Ma, who performed "Sweet Baby James" with Taylor, followed by funny video tributes from Homer Simpson and Paul McCartney. Finally, Travolta summoned singer Carole King to the stage, and she and Taylor treated the capacity crowd to a few old faves, including "Natural Woman," "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow," and "You've Got a Friend." Said JT's wife, Kim Taylor: "James doesn't like surprises, so he had an inkling. But he didn't know about [Travolta]."
