Impressive opening for "Get Smart," handily surpassing the opening for "Bewitched," another TV show adaptation. On the other hand, Mike Myers flopped spectacularly with "The Love Guru." Perhaps the relentlessly unfunny TV spots and trailers are to blame. How long before we hear of an "Austin Powers 4?"

"Iron Man" continues it dominant ways, crossing the 300 million mark and in good shape to remain the highest-grossing movie of the year. It all depends on how well "The Dark Knight" does next month.

Next week a double dose of the letter "w" in "Wall-E" and "Wanted."
