• Teaser Trailer for Adam Sandler's Grown Ups

  Adam Sandler's latest movie, Grown Ups, reunites him with several of his Saturday Night Live co-stars, including David Spade, Chris Rock, Rob Schneider, and Kevin James (filling in for a role that certainly would have gone to Chris Farley had he not passed away). The reunion is fitting, since the movie, which Sandler co-wrote, tells the story of five childhood friends and basketball teammates who reunite 30 years later and spend a weekend together with their families.

  The first trailer for Grown Ups has arrived online courtesy of Yahoo!. Directed by Happy Gilmore's Dennis Dugan, Grown Ups opens June 25, 2010. Watch the trailer below.

• Paul Blart: Mall Cop Set Visit

  ReelzChannel.com was lucky enough to get to check out the set of Sony's new holiday action/comedy, Paul Blart: Mall Cop.

  It stars a mustachioed Kevin James (The King of Queens, Hitch) as an overzealous shopping mall security guard that must defend his territory when it's taken over by a gang of X-game-y criminals, and from what we saw, it looks like it is going to be pretty funny.

  Check out our Paul Blart: Mall Cop Set Visit article to get the full scoop.

• Nation prefers firemen to wizards, John Travolta

  The winner of this weekend's box office war is the Adam Sandler-Kevin James comedy I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, about two firemen who pose as a gay couple so they can get domestic partnership health benefits.

  Chuck & Larry took in $34.8 million in ticket receipts this weekend, displacing Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix on just its second weekend in theaters. There has been some speculation that the release of the final book in the Harry Potter series this weekend may have eaten into the movie's earnings, with fans ostensibly staying home to read the long awaited conclusion to Harry's adventures in lieu of seeing the fifth book depicted in the theater.

  At $32.2 million for the weekend, Potter did outpace Hairspray, Friday's other big open. Still, Hairspray fared quite well, coming in third at the box office with $27.8 million--making it the biggest box office open for a musical ever.
