...stereotypes. But Sanders and DeBlois, two Disney vets who told a similar kid-and-feral-pet fable in 2002's Lilo & Stitch, have the knack of giving life to fantastical interspecies friendships. And the technicians at their disposal (including the Coen brothers' ace cinematographer, Roger Deakins) have splashed the screen with landscapes that would captivate all eyes even if the movie weren...
Storming the screen with plenty of muscle - and some steroids in the form of a last-minute 3-D version on about 1,500 screens - Clash of the Titans was No. 1 at the North American box office with $61.4 million, according to early studio estimates.

Will other moguls dare make the next film in the Transformers or James Bond franchise in a flat-screen version? It's more likely that producers, seeing the stratospheric grosses for Avatar and Alice and the quadrupling of screens able to show films in any format, will go where the money...
...uphill battle. Al-Jazeera TV last week showed footage of a packed wharf in Dubai, piled high with goods, including boxes of Panasonic flat-screen televisions and Whirlpool refrigerators - possibly in violation of U.S. sanctions if American companies are exporting to Iran without U.S. government licenses - but with no customs agent in sight. Only a small portion of shipments are checked, and officials rely on the honesty of shipping brokers in filling out manifests. (See the top 10 scandals...
