Roland Emmerich’s apocalyptic  actioner 2012 destroyed its competition at the  North American box office this weekend with a solid $65 million in ticket  sales, according to studio estimates Sunday.
Sony’s 2012  opened at 3,404 locations Friday, scoring  an explosive average of $19,095 per  theater while  easily beating the $35.8 million opening gross of  Emmerich’s previous film 10,000 B.C.
Starring John Cusack, Amanda  Peet, Oliver Platt, and Danny Glover, 2012 follows a group of  individuals trying to survive a series of cataclysms as the world is about to come to an end.

As expected, Walt Disney’s A  Christmas Carol took the No. 1 spot at the North American box office  this weekend with a solid $31 million in ticket sales, according to studio  estimates Sunday.
Starring Jim Carrey (above), the Robert Zemeckis-directed 3D  motion-capture adventure tale based on Charles Dickens’ classic  opened at 3,683  locations and scored an average of $8,417 per theater, enough to crush its  competition. 

At No. 2, Michael Jackson’s This  Is It delivered another strong performance, earning $14 million at 3,481  locations. Sony’s documentary about the late pop star’s planned concert series  lifted its total gross to an impressive $57.8 million.

George Clooney in Up in the Air

Nomi Morris on Up in the Air in GlobalPost, via The Huffington Post:
&#34;This year, the film that has generated the greatest buzz is Up in the Air, the latest by [Jason] Reitman, director of the hits Juno and Thank You for Smoking, and son of Hollywood director Ivan Reitman (Ghost Busters). Up in the Air stars [George] Clooney as a &#34;termination engineer,&#34; who has no home life outside of his job, jetting around the country helping American companies fire people.

English-language productions dominate the  Berlin Film Festival&#8217;s 2007 official competition line-up. In all, 22  films are competing for the Golden Bear and four  are being screened out of competition at this year&#8217;s Berlinale, which runs between Feb. 8-18.

Brokeback Mountain was the big winner at the BAFTA 2006 Awards. Based on E. Annie Proulx&#8217;s short story about the doomed love affair between two Wyoming ranch hands, Brokeback Mountain won a total of four awards: best picture, best director (Ang Lee), best adapted screenplay (Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana), and, surprisingly, best supporting actor for Jake Gyllenhaal. (While accepting the best film award, producer James Schamus jokingly complained that his film has been unfairly labeled &#8220;the gay cowboy movie,&#8221; when it actually is a &#8220;universal love story about two gay shepherds.&#8221;)


Two actors portraying real-life characters also came out on top: Philip Seymour Hoffman was chosen best [...]]]></description>

The Academy Award nominations are in. 
Brokeback Mountain (above, with Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger) led the pack with 8 nods. Crash, Good Night and Good Luck., and Memoirs of a Geisha  tied with six nominations each, while Munich and Capote received five nominations apiece. Of the aforementioned six films, the one left out of the best picture race was Memoirs of a Geisha.
Even though he&#8217;s not a film, George Clooney also received multiple nominations, three in all: best director and best original screenplay (with Grant Heslov) for Good Night and Good Luck., and a best supporting actor nod for Syriana.

The 2006  British Academy Film Awards (BAFTAs) have been announced. The largest number of nominations went to The Constant Gardener (10), Crash (9), and Brokeback Mountain (9). All three films were nominated for best picture, while The Constant Gardener (above) also received a best British film nod. Mirroring the trend on the western side of the Atlantic, the best picture contenders are all relatively &#34;small&#34; (at least partly) American-financed films. The other two nominees are Capote and Good Night and Good Luck.
