July 4th Movies: 'Transformers' In 3D v. 'Larry Crowne'

Hosted by Kim Masters Jun. 30, 2011 Entertainment
A look at Transformers' box office potential this holiday weekend, the public's appetite for 3D, and the "little" movie Larry Crowne. Can big stars compete with crashing robots?

Kim and John look at how Transformers is tracking in terms of box office potential over this long holiday weekend and debate the public's appetite for 3D. Plus, they reflect on the irony that Transformers' biggest competitor is a "little" movie starring Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts and how these movie stars have lost their luster as compared with crashing summer robots.
