Apparently very few moviegoers, since Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen made killer box office dollars since opening last Wednesday. $201.2 million, by studio estimates, which puts it behind only The Dark Knight for the biggest four- and five-day openings ever.

Looking ahead, the big releases for the July 4 weekend: Public Enemies (Johnny Depp and Christian Bale), Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs (which looks adorable) and I Hate Valentine's Day (or, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Part Deux, as I like to think of it).
What will you be seeing, besides fireworks, during the holiday weekend?
That's right, snag two VIP tickets to an advance screening of Terminator: Salvation, which means two reserved seats and no waiting in line for a pre-release screening of the Christian Bale/McG flick, in a city near you.

Today's nifty gifty DVD suggestion ...
The Caped Crusader!
The Dark Knight on Blu-ray
What makes it such a nifty gifty: It's one of the best movies of the year - and not just one of the best comic book movies of the year, one of the best movies of the year, period. Though it's still up in the air whether or not the late Heath Ledger will receive a posthumous, and well-deserved, Oscar nomination for his incredible performance as The Joker (he received a Golden Globe nod this week), the DVD has already sold three million copies since its release on Tuesday. So let it be said, three million Batman fans can't be wrong.
It's the perfect nifty gifty for: Everyone in your family, all your friends, all your co-workers (hey, I said it was one of the best movies of the year).
Holy A-list villain, Batman! Well, now that this has been thrown up as a possibility, the next Batman movie can't happen without it: Slashfilm reports that Johnny Depp might sign on to play big Bat baddie The Riddler in The Dark Knight sequel.
Please let it happen … please let it happen … please let it happen …
Not cruise as in Tom, cruise as in news you can surf on over to …
- Christian Bale is going to be one busy dude with two major franchises under his Bat-belt. Have you seen the Terminator Salvation trailer?
- Speaking of the big Bale, about that crazy assault business in London this week … here's hoping it's a family squabble that spiraled out of control. Everyone has someone in the old family tree who can bring out the worst in them, no?
