Iron Man 2" the sequel starring Robert Downey Jr. as Marvel's gadget-happy billionaire superhero, earned $133.6 million domestically on it's opening weekend according to the distributor Paramount Pictures estimates Sunday.

"Iron Man 2" has taken in $194 million overseas since it debuted in many international markets last week, bringing it's worldwide total to over $327 million. despite the triumph over it's predecessor "Iron Man 2" didn't beat the $158.4 million of "The Dark Knight" in 2008 or the $151,1 million debut of "Spider Man 3" in 2007. It also didn't surpass last year's $142.8 million dawn of "The Twilight Saga:New Moon" or the $135.6 million course charted by "Pirates Of The Caribbean-Dead Man's Chest" in 2006. "Iron Man 2" was untouchable at this weekend's box office though.

Travolta's 2 dogs killed in Maine airport accident
May 18, 8:25 AM (ET)

BANGOR, Maine (AP) - A service vehicle at Maine's Bangor International
Airport has struck and killed two dogs owned by John Travolta.

The city says the accident happened after an airplane carrying members of
Travolta's family landed early last Thursday and the dogs were being
walked. The city issued the statement after the Bangor Daily News
newspaper confirmed the accident through an e-mail from the city manager
to the City Council.

A Travolta spokesman hasn't returned a telephone message left Monday
seeking comment.

The "Saturday Night Fever" and "Pulp Fiction" actor is an accomplished
pilot who often flies to Bangor while en route to his home on Islesboro,
off the Maine coast. It's unclear whether he was in the cockpit the night
his dogs died.

Airport Director Rebecca Hupp says her deepest sympathies are with the
Travolta family.
 
Good grief! That poor family can't catch a break. First their son dies, then someone tries to extort money from them over the boy's death and now they lose their pets. :(
 
That is sad and unbeliveable, why? he's such a wonderful guy makes no sense, so much sadness and grief... hang tough John and Kelly:thumbsup:

*Regis Philbin talk show host will have a blood clot in his calf removed today. The 78-year-old co-host of "Live With Regis and Kelly" says his leg pain is making it difficult to walk. Philbin had hip replacement surgery in December and triple heart-bypass surgery in 2007. He said on last Thursday's show: "One of the things you've got to do when you get a new hip is continue to walk, but I can't walk for very long" [good luck Reg]:bolian:
