The Fiesta Has Risen

No need to adjust your calendars, it IS April 6, 2012, and this IS the Friday Film Fiesta. Last week’s Fiesta from 1994 was a joke, a joke that was specifically designed to make you all look like fools. April fools, if you will.

Actually, creating an April Fools edition of the Fiesta has been an idea of mine since roughly week three of my taking over of the column. The hardest part was finding articles that coincided with the week, and also finding VHS release dates. Glad it got over with everyone!

Well, everyone except Jope “I hate gimmicks and I’m jealous of jeditab’s entertaining Fiestas” McJoperton.

Two weeks ago, I asked you what your favorite CBS television show was, and you answered other. Good show, that one is!

-- Box Office News: A bunch of new shit can’t dethrone The Hunger Games
-- Trailer Time: Sparkle, The Sweeney, Bad Ass, To Rome With Love, Total Recall, Bel Ami, Trishna, Ted, Take This Waltz, High School, Here, Lola Versus, Transit, Savages, and A Fantastic Fear of Everything
-- In Theaters This Week: Titanic 3D, American Reunion, and Damsels in Distress
-- Next Week’s Notable DVD Releases: The Iron Lady, and The Darkest Hour

We begin with a plethora (sorry, AP Stylebook) of links from the Golden One from the past few weeks:
-- Who will play Eric Young?
-- Titanic is inaccurate!
-- Three Reasons: Kindergarten Cop
-- Aladdin exposed!

-- The 32nd Annual Razzie Awards took place over the weekend, and in a shocking shock to end all shocking shocks, Adam Sandler cleaned house! Glenn also sends along Entertainment Weekly’s take
-- Speaking of Adam Sandler, he’s going to summer school. But will it be better than Jack and Jill?
-- Meet the new Steve Jobs! BURN!

-- Robert Englund discusses the never-made Nightmare on Elm Street prequel
-- Halloween: Directed by Michael Bay!
-- Hellraiser is getting a TV series

-- Check out the new Superman logo
-- No! No! No!
-- Captain America 2 gets a release date

And that brings us to this week’s poll.
