Even though I wasn't in love with the movie, it warmed my heart to hear "Baby Mama" won the box-office battle over the weekend. It's nice to see a Hollywood film headlined by two ladies succeed.

This means Tina Fey and Amy Poehler , exceptional comic talents apart or together, get to make more movies. And Hollywood in general will be more receptive to women-headlined films.

The box office take for "Baby Mama" also bodes well for the May 30 opening of "Sex and the City," the closest thing to a blockbuster for women in the summer movie season. Women filmgoers obviously are hungry for entertaining movies aimed at them, and they're coming out on opening weekend to show it.

Another thing: Finally, the box office victory for "Baby Mama" over "Harold & Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay" proves this theory of mine: Stoners can't be counted on to support a movie on opening weekend. They like it better on the couch, which is why the first "Harold & Kumar" didn't become a hit until it reached DVD.
