For 31 years in a post-apocalyptic nightmare, Eli has treasured and protected the world’s most precious set of words. Now someone wants to take the Book away from him.

Here at Plugged In, we’re always telling y’all that too much TV is bad for you. Yes, we know that some of you roll your eyes and say, “Yeah, yeah, whatever,” and then flip on Gossip Girl just to spite us. So it’s for you that I’ll reiterate: Too much t …

Daybreakers, a curious little vampire tale, was the only new film to break into the Top 5 at the box office over the weekend, with $15 million changing hands between mostly mindless moviegoers and mostly bored teenage ticket takers. I doubt very many o …

I’ve always loved finding God in unexpected places. I believe signs of His work are all around us, if we take time to look—from the top of a hill to the edge of the ocean to the fabric of our cubicle walls. It’s one of the things I enjoy so much about …

James Cameron’s Avatar cruised to a strong start over the weekend, topping the box office with $73 million. Granted, the take was on the low end of the studio’s expectations, but considering much of the East Coast was hammered by a massive snowstorm, C …

The Princess and the Frog, an old-school animated offering from the folks at Disney, smooched the No. 1 slot at the box office this weekend, pushing The Blind Side to second place. Princess’ $25 million take was fit for—well, a princess. And there was …
