After overloading last month with the copious amounts of Disney throwaways, other studios might have finally come up with enough variation to knock 'Avatar' off of the charts. Let's be honest, it's no surprise that 'Avatar' ruled in a month where The Rock dressed up like a fairy and Ethan Hawke fought vampires. It's everyone versus 'Avatar' - let's see how this month stacks up.

Dear John

From the author of "The Notebook" comes this movie that may lead to the crying of men and women everywhere. Women due to the young couple separated by senseless violence in Iraq and men due to being dragged by women to see this movie.

Frozen

A snowboarding adventure goes horribly wrong when a chair lift is shut down before a trio of friends make their last run for the night. That sounds gruesome, right? Add to it that for some strange reason the resort is closing for a full week and the trio are forced to find a way to safety from not only the chair lift, but from the freezing cold.

Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief

Silly, Americans. There's already a young boy wonder that descends from magical heritage to save the world. And that boy is Harry Potter. See, Percy Jackson goes to a magical school where he finds out that he is destined to be far greater than he has ever imagined. That sounds awfully familiar. They even stole the director of the "Chamber of Secrets" movie. Too bad they couldn't get Alan Rickman to be a teacher.

The Wolfman

When promotions started for this flick, they seemed to coincide with a big release for "Avatar." Obviously with James Cameron building his mansion made of solid gold, the studio apparently didn't put much of a dent in their publicity. The story doesn't appear to be too deep as Benicio Del Toro just runs around all hairy in the lackluster trailer.

Cop Out

My love of all things Kevin Smith requires me to trumpet this film on high. Luckily, Mr. Smith has turned in a beautiful looking movie with some high powered talents like Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan. The overwhelming buzz is that this flick harks back to 80's buddy cop action movies with a heaping dose of Tracy Morgan's polarizing schtick.

Takers

"We're takers, gents. We take." The plot succinctly laid out for us by a line of dialogue. Bank robbers rob banks, while police officers try to catch them. Paul Walker is still pretending that he's from the streets with an overly urban accent that he hasn't lost since The Fast and the Furious XII or whatever number their number. Matt Dillon, Rapper "T.I." and Hayden Christensen co-star.

Me and Orson Welles

Zac Efron graduated from a high school where all drama is solved by a musical number. Now he's been tasked with pulling off a character who learns the creative experience and personal downfalls of working with Orson Welles for a week in the staging of Caesar. There's love and there's lots of Welles yelling - what more could you ask for? Please don't say dance number.
