Rebecca Keegan from the Los Angeles Times talks about the latest in the entertainment industry in Take Two's weekly segment "On the Lot."

"Wild"

For a fourth week in a row, "I am Groot" means  "Guardians of the Galaxy" continues to smash expectations at the box office. On top of that, Jon Stewart and Reese Witherspoon are premiering a couple of films this week at the Toronto Film Festival, and Bill Murray participated in his first ever "Bill Murray Day" during the festival.

Quentin Tarantino is taking over a historic revival theater here in L.A. in typical Tarantino fashion ... by destroying something. And two studios that are having kind of a tough time are Steven Spielberg's DreamWorks SKG and Warner Brothers.

"Rosewater"

Rebecca Keegan, who writes about film for the Los Angeles Times, joined Take Two for "On the Lot," a regular discussion of entertainment.
