This week was relatively quiet at the box office - everyone was scared to open a movie opposite I Am Legend - but I've got a review for the Will Smith movie for you.

...Plus, an interview with Jason Lee for Alvin in the Chipmunks, which my boss insists is a great movie.

In bigger news, ABC has finally decided to firm up their spring season schedule in the face of very little original programming thanks to the strike. Lost will indeed debut it's fourth season - on January 31st, in the Thursdays at 9pm time slot previously occupied by Grey's Anatomy.

From a business standpoint it's a fairly good move, and the good news is that ABC still has plenty of faith in the show - Thursdays at 9 is generally considered to be just about the best time slot out there in terms of when viewers traditionally tune in the most.

The bad news, of course, is that only eight episodes are finished. Even if the strike ends soon, there's really no conceivable way they could finish the other episodes in time without some break. It looks like they'll be resigned to airing them this coming fall - good for us since we'll get 24 episodes from Sept - May, but awkward for the show as the arc will be all screwed up. Of course, things could change, so I'll keep you updated.
