A sequel to Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 still hasn't come out, and it's increasingly looking like a prospective Paul Blart: Mall Cop 3 will never end up being produced. Happy Madison Productions earned some surprisingly strong box-office results with the pair of Paul Blart: Mall Cop films. Since 1999, the production company has released several low-concept movies that performed well at the box office. They've also proven to have a strong shelf-life on streaming thanks to Adam Sandler's lucrative deal with Netflix, with the pair of Paul Blart films among the most financially lucrative. 4k6v3z

Kevin James wants to make Paul Blart: Mall Cop 3, but he doesn't know the story yet. The King of Queens funnyman left audiences in stitches with the 2009 comedy from Happy Madison Productions, which he co-wrote and starred. James played bumbling mall security guard Paul Blart, who finds himself in the middle of a major heist on the night of Black Friday. The Segway-riding cop proves he's more than people give him credit for by ultimately saving the day. Though it wasn't critically acclaimed, the film fared well at the box office and flaunted James' leading man power, prompting a sequel to be made.

Probably Kevin James' most successful foray into leading man territory to date, the two Paul Blart films still weren't exactly critical darlings. Both films were heavily criticized, particularly for the series' view of people struggling with weight issues. However, audiences flocked to them, resulting in varying levels of profitability for both films.

Kevin James is an actor-comedian who made it big as an everyman on the TV sitcom The King of Queens and then proceeded to work with Adam Sandler in several of his comedy movies. Of course, with Sandler, especially, these are rarely critically successful. With that said, James has been in some financially successful film over the years.

The Paul Blart: Mall Cop action-comedy series follows Paul Blart's unlikely heroics in Paul Blart: Mall Cop (2009) and Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 (2015). In the first film, the mall Blart works for becomes the center of a hostage situation. Blart is the man on the inside, the one who saves the day.

The Golden Raspberry Award Foundation has announced its nominations for the 2016 Razzie Awards, a day before the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will reveal its nominations for this year's Academy Awards ceremony. While the minds behind the Razzies position their satirical awards show as an antithesis to the Oscars that (dis)honors the worst mainstream film releases for any particular year, the Razzies are known to favor the popular punching bags for the film-loving public - something that makes their nominations as predictable and conventional as the Oscar nods (if not more so), in several ways.

Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 picks up with New Jersey mall security officer Paul Blart (Kevin James), whose life hasn't exactly changed for the better since his Black Friday heist-thwarting deeds six years ago. His wife Amy (Jayma Mays) dumped him after a week of marriage, while his mother (Shirley Knight) has died, leaving him to live alone with his daughter, Maya (Raini Rodriguez). All the same, when the Blarts take a trip to Las Vegas for a mall security convention, Paul goes with the expectation that he will be better recognized for his undying commitment to his chosen profession.

Day by day, the recent hack of Sony Pictures Entertainment continues to spark stories in the news as information contained within personal emails and files is released and reported on. Now, the group behind the hack, Guardians of Peace, announced they will be releasing a series of “Christmas Gifts,” the first of which is Sony Entertainment CEO Michael Lynton's emails. This comes at a time where the currently-released files add up to a little over 200GB of the reportedly 100TB stolen, or 0.2%, of the information that hackers it to stealing. So what's next?
