Oy!  Things are mighty strange in movie theater land when a Tom Cruise action flick gets trounced at the box office by a teen weepie and the second weekend of Angelina Jolie's Maleficent.  While it's great that "women's pictures" ruled the box office two weeks running (hopefully the online think pieces on the subject won't be too nauseating), I have to personally give Edge of Tomorrow a little bit of credit-- it's more lithe and fun than it has any right to be, plus Emily Blunt is a total badass, so there.

What did you see this weekend?
