Ah, Super Bowl weekend! Warm Bodies (review) can go from a $9 million Saturday to a $2.9 million Sunday and it’s okay! According to the studio, it earned $8.1 million on Friday, $9 million on Saturday, yet is expected to make just $2.9 million today.
Yes, I know today is the Super Bowl, but I’m always shocked by these mega drops each and every year. The film, which has an estimated $20 million debut, played 60% female (because girls like horror films too!) and 65% under 25, which means it is doing best outside of the stereotypical older male football fan who is already getting ready for the big game so it may end up with a slightly higher weekend total in the end. It earned a B+ from Cinemascore, with an A- from those under 25 and an A from those under 18.
Regardless, this is a solid debut for a film that easily could have played to the geek crowd exclusively. This is the kind of film that could have easily opened with $8 million over the weekend, as opposed to $8 million on its first day.

Madonna Goes Viral in Istanbul – Flashes Crowd
HollywoodNews.com: Madonna knows how to get publicity, and she’s using all the tricks in her book. On stage in Istanbul this week, she purposely bared a nipple. The result is a viral video. After the nipple is presented, she turns her back to the crowd. And on her back is a tattoo (stenciled, hopefully) that reads: “No Fear.” You gotta give her credit.
First it was the Lady Gaga cover and “She’s not me.” Now this. There’s going to have to be a p.r. stunt once a week through the summer as Madonna tours the world and approaches America. It’s kind of enthralling. With the “MDNA” album gone, Madge has to keep stoking the fires. I love the look on her face, too, when she completes her own “wardrobe malfunction.”
Warning: this is not for the kiddies:

Katy Perry reportedly avoiding media for now
HollywoodNews.com: Katy Perry recently performed at a pre-Super Bowl party, but one thing she isn’t going to be doing yet is talking to the media.
Perry is reportedly being very careful about avoiding the media as she just isn’t ready to discuss her split with Russell Brand, states Hollyscoop. Perry is getting back to work, but knows that the media will only want to talk about the divorce filing.
So, for now, Perry is reportedly doing what she can to get back out there without having conversations about Brand.

She was then later spotted hugging her husband in support.

Clint Eastwood wins Super Bowl with stirring Chrysler ad
By Sean O’Connell
Hollywoodnews.com: As Hollywood debates which blockbuster better helped its cause with a winning Super Bowl ad campaign, America needs to rally behind this outstanding Chrysler ad featuring a solemn yet hopeful Clint Eastwood reminding us that unity is pretty much the only thing that can get our nation through its toughest times.
It’s a car ad, but only in the sense that it calls to attention the rebound of the automotive industry in Detroit.
Instead, this is a shot in the arm, a call to arms for Americans to believe in each other again … and to believe in themselves.
Eastwood uses the halftime analogy, saying that our country is figuring out how to come back, how to win. It’s a stirring ad, perhaps more effective than Eastwood’s last few films. (Sorry, sir, but the truth is the truth.)
“This country can’t be knocked out with one punch. We’ll get back up again and when we do the world’s gonna hear the roar of our engines. Yeah. It’s halftime, America,” he said. “And our second half’s about to begin.”
Can the former politician run for president?
