"   Photo: Warner Bros.  There were two ways to catch Russell Brand this weekend. The British actor/Katy Perry`s husband voiced the lead in Hop, the animated Easter film about a rabbit that poops chocolate eggs and played the lead in Arthur, a remake of the 1981 classic starring Dudley Moore and Liza Minelli. Brand&amp;#039;s never really carried a movie before\u2014let alone earned the title role\u2014which made it a big weekend for the comedian. However, Arthur came in second with nearly half the intake of Hop\u2014just $12.5 million. Hop`s the first film of the year to keep a number one spot at the box office for two weeks in a row, so a second week takeover by Arthur seems unlikely. Meanwhile, we got our fill of Helen Mirren on Saturday Night Live. If you didn&amp;#039;t catch her digital short, we&amp;#039;d suggest catching up now. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
