As a rule, sellout films usually contain a colon and/or a number. We’re looking at you, Speed 2: Cruise Control.

But what emerges in the preceding film is an uplifting true story that emphasizes a message of the importance of protection, loyalty and trust. Which we’re pretty sure is what the Left Tackle thing is about. Yeah, we totally speak Football!

It’s been announced that Sandra Bullock – who planned to come to the UK for the premiere of The Blind Side – has pulled out at the last minute. The glitzy affair was due to take place at the Odeon in Leicester Square, but at the news of Sandra’s no-show the event has been toned down. No red carpet, we’re afraid. So what happened?
