Who's up In its first weekend of release, festival darling "Juno" made a tidy $413,000. Oh, wait, did I mention it was playing on just seven screens? For an insane $59,000 per-theater average? That's more than eight times better than the No. 1 film, "The Golden Compass." As Ellen Page's character would say, totally boss. Who's down Not content with defiling "The Dukes of Hazzard," Hollywood is about to ruin Fritz Lang's iconic science-fiction classic "Metropolis." German producer Thomas Schuehly (the genius behind Oliver Stone's "Alexander") is funding this desecration of his national patrimony.
