| Uma Thurman’s Greatest Movie Fail - The Celebrity Cafe.com Posted: 28 Mar 2010 10:35 AM PDT Uma Thurman's latest movie, Motherhood, is a laughing joke. According to the British box office, the first week Motherhood came out, it took in £9 on its opening day, which means just one person watched it that day. It didn't get much better than that. The opening weekend took in just £88 in its opening weekend, which means less than 12 people went to see it. The failure of the film has taken a toll on the movie producers. Jane Edelbaum said, 'Think about how much crap succeeds at the cinema. Motherhood is not bad. It's a very decent movie. I've seen movies that are not half as good." The movie tells the story of a stressed mother who struggles to raise her kids while trying to pursue a writing career. The film cost $5 million to make but saw no profits. Film Critic Barry Norman claimed this failure might be due to the lack of promotion. He said, "Good God. I have never heard of anything like this before. This is not some small, independent movie. It's astonishing that only about 11 people could be bothered to go and see Uma Thurman." He added, "The reviews were very poor indeed but that alone isn't enough to explain this. It's a reasonable assumption that there was a marketing and advertising catastrophe and people didn't know it was showing." Five Filters featured article: Chilcot Inquiry.

| Ebert to produce new movie review show - Aiken Standard Posted: 28 Mar 2010 07:31 PM PDT The Pulitzer Prize-winning reviewer writes he would like to make "occasional appearances" on the air. Ebert lost his ability to speak after cancer surgery. Ebert also writes: "the Thumbs will return," referring to the well-known "thumbs up" and "thumbs down" reviews. Meanwhile, Disney-ABC Domestic Television announced it will cease producing "At The Movies," the successor show to the movie review programs Ebert had with the late Chicago Tribune critic Gene Siskel, and later Richard Roeper of the Sun-Times. The last show will air the weekend of Aug. 14. On the Net: http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/
