...million this weekend - if it had secured all the 3-D screens it needed, which Warner Bros. could have done if it had released the film in mid-April, when Alice and Dragon would have run their course, and before the first expected smash of the summer season, Iron Man 2. But Warner decided on Easter weekend, and the swamis are now predicting a take of $70 million for Clash's opening three days. "Warner Bros.' decision doesn't make a lot of sense," Bock observes. "You don't see many other 3-D conflicts down the line...

...Warner Bros. has announced that all its epics and big action films - the final Harry Potter episode, the next Batman - will be made, or at least released, in 3-D. Sony's decision to go with a new creative team for the next Spider-Man sequel is said to be related to the studio's wish to have the Marvel hero do his cavorting in 3-D. Spielberg is in postproduction on his 3-D Tintin movie. Will other moguls dare make the next film in the Transformers or James Bond franchise in a flat-screen version? It's more...

...mother-son warmth of the Harryhausen film, and its foregrounding of Perseus's and Andromeda's romance, are also missing the point. Through his travels and travails, Perseus does have a female guide, Io (Gemma Arterton), who fans a brief romantic spark. But it becomes clear - as the young man gathers around him a half-dozen battle-tested guys, led by Draco (that chiseled slab of testosterone Mads Mikkelsen), to confront Medusa and save Argos - that this Clash is a movie of men at work and at war, of hardened soldiers on an impossible mission. This is less the saga...

Even though Unofficial Tour guides might tell you that only the Catholic Church and Bill H. Gates, class of 1977, have more money than Harvard does, Warren E. Buffett certainly isn’t doing too badly. Buffet, the third richest man in the world according to Forbes’ rankings, was once upon a time denied entrance to the Harvard Business School...
