From Deadline :
FRIDAY 2:15 PM: I was just told that the New Line/Warner Bros reimagining of A Nightmare On Elm Street debuted to $1.6 million from Thursday midnight shows in about 1,000 theaters. That’s way more than the previous record for a horror flick: the February 2009 rebooted Friday The 13th’s $1 million. Today, Nightmare opens in 3,332 locations and my sources tell me right now the Friday domestic grosses look like a whopping $15M to $17M. So that’s a $40+M opening weekend for sure. In all, this is the 9th in the infamous franchise (if you count number Freddy vs Jason) with Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy Krueger. (Robert Englund used to scare me so badly I couldn’t even watch the trailers.)
From Zap2it :
Still deciding if you want to see the new “A Nightmare on Elm Street” this weekend?
Word of warning: Watch this HD trailer to see if your stomach — and your heart — are strong enough to stand it. Then read our review of the film.
The film is a re-imagining of the horror icon Freddy Krueger, a serial-killer who wields a glove with four very sharp blades embedded in the fingers.
Freddie likes to kill people in their dreams, which, amazingly, causes their death in reality. Oh, it also stars “Twilight” hunk Kellan Lutz, “Melrose Place” vixen Katie Cassidy and a bunch of young hotties we aren’t familiar with yet but probably will be soon.
Frankly, after watching this trailer once, we may never sleep again.

Start "Nightmare on ElmStreet" Post :D
Kellan Lutz is This Week’s Hump Day Hottie
There are many reasons why we are honoring Kellan Lutz this week. SPOILER ALERT: he’s only in “A Nightmare On Elm Street” for a few brief moments, but it’s enough to earn him a spot as our Hump Day Hottie. Plus, we figured it might be a nice way to welcome him to the world of Twitter (his account was confirmed today!). Welcome, Kellan and congrats on being our hottie this week!
Vital Stats: This 25-year-old North Dakota native is apparently as smart as he is attractive. Sure, he’s modeled , but he’s even had a stint as a college student studying chemical engineering at Chapman University. But, like so many good looking dudes before him, he caught the acting bug and the rest is history.

The LA Times Tells Us What We Can Expect From Edward Cullen in Eclipse
The family that slays together, stays together.
At least that's the case for the Cullen brood.
In "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse," which hits theaters June 30, Seattle is ravaged by a series of killings caused by an army of newborn vampires controlled by revenge-seeking bloodsucker Victoria. To combat the threat against Bella ( Kristen Stewart) in this third installment of the franchise, the Cullens must band together and join forces with their sworn enemies, the wolf pack.
"The whole family is in a vulnerable position because of the love we have for Bella," said Elizabeth Reaser, who plays matriarch Esme Cullen. "If she's not OK, we're not OK."
In the past, we've seen the clan hit baseballs so hard that they can play only in a thunder storm, to block out the sound. And we've watched the buttoned-up human imposters welcome Bella into their home as the human girlfriend of one of their own — the handsome Edward.
"This time around, you get to see their true vampire-ness," said Peter Facinelli, who plays head vampire Dr. Carlisle Cullen in the series based on the bestselling books by Stephenie Meyer.
What can we expect from the pale-faced Cullen family (which includes the Hale siblings) this go around? Here's what the actors say audiences can expect from the story and their characters:
Robert Pattinson (as Edward Cullen): Snagging a phone interview with the brooding dreamboat — who was overseas shooting his latest film, "Bel Ami" — proved difficult. So what can we expect from the lovesick Edward? He promises to love Bella "every moment of forever," as the trailer reveals. He's still hesitant about her becoming a vampire. He's determined to protect her from Victoria. And he's vying with Jacob for her affections. Oh, the life of an antique teenage vampire.

Betty White 'too busy' to get naked with Robert Pattinson
Golden Girl Betty White says she is too busy to do a nude scene with Twilight hunk Robert Pattinson who is 65 years her junior.
But the 88-year-old actress says she should write to the 23-year-old Brit for reportedly calling her the sexiest woman in the US.
'I should write him a thank you note,' White tells the New York Post.
When asked if she would do a nude scene with the heart-throb though, White squashed the idea.
'No, sorry. I wouldn't,' she says. 'There really isn't much spare time these days.'
TV veteran White will guest host US TV show Saturday Night Live on May 8 after fans launched an internet campaign requesting that she appear.
'I don't understand it all,' White says. 'I'm the luckiest old broad on two feet.'
White, who co-starred alongside Sandra Bullock in The Proposal last year, is in hot demand of late, despite nearing 90.
The Saturday Night Live guest spot is just the latest in a string of recent projects that includes her new TV series Hot In Cleveland.
Speaking about her upcoming schedule she says: 'I do the show Saturday night. Sunday I fly back to California and Monday I start the new series I'm doing for TV Land.'
The demanding commitments won't slow her down though, White insists.
'I think energy builds on energy,' she says. 'I love the business I'm in and the more you do, the more it works.'
