( Slender Man posts start here, though most of the images are now gone). Or, if you prefer: The Slender Man is an internet born character-entity based on the Bogeyman and originating in his present form on Something Awful, created by user Victor Surge in the "Let's Create Paranormal Images" thread. The less you know the better, for knowing too much may make you the subject of its interest. Those who see it are often driven to scrawling strange messages and scribbling sketches of a dark, faceless figure - prior to their going utterly insane, or disappearing entirely.

No, it's A Good Day to Die Hard, which is a father and son action film. I foresee a victory in the year-over-year comparison. The new releases were Rock of Ages and That's My Boy, both of which bombed. Last year the box office was led by Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted and Prometheus, both of which were in their second weekend of release.
This is the End is the counter-programming for the week, and it has a lot of popular actors and the reviews are strong, but it opened on Wednesday, so its weekend numbers will be softer as a result.
