Did anyone actually expect 'SNL' guest host Louis C.K. to play along with any opening monologue idea that wasn't just eight minutes of hilarious comedy carefully culled from whatever he's working on at the moment? After all, C.K. is funny and he knows a good self-promotion opportunity when he sees it.
‘Into the Storm’ Trailer: ‘Twister’ For the Post-‘2012′ Crowd
When it comes to dangerous weather, there's nothing more cinematic than a tornado. 'Twister' knew this back in 1996, and if its new trailer is any indication, 'Into the Storm' knows this now in 2014.

Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Divergent’ Leaves ‘Muppets Most Wanted’ in the Dust

Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Need For Speed’ Sputters at the Box Office
If the goal for 'Need For Speed' was to replicate the success of the 'Fast and Furious' films, then the film's opening weekend is not promising. Opening in third place, the video game adaptation was overtaken by two of last week's releases, making this potential franchise D.O.A.
