Finally, we start to see some high numbers back at the box office. As we progress into fall, more big name movies and franchises start to appear in theaters everywhere! This season of movie popularity usually lasts through winter into late March and early April, and then things slow down for the summer once again.

This weekend’s big name was High School Musical 3. Blech. My sister has been singing from it non-stop. Also new was the fifth installment of the Saw series, Saw V. It has been largely regarded as one of the weakest movies of the series in terms of plot, but I will save that review for Patrick who saw the movie last night.

Also still in the top five is Beverly Hills Chihuahua. Seriously? Come on! >=[
