Over the Independence Day Weekend, the giant alien robots managed to fend off the prehistoric Ice Age, but it was a close race, with a difference of just a million dollars.

This July 4th weekend, in between the fireworks and hot dogs, take a break at the theater with gangsters, animated dinosaurs and hairy mammoths, or yet-another Nia Vardalos romantic comedy.

Ray Romano, Queen Latifah, John Leguizamo and director Carlos Saldanha of Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs discussed what is was like returning for a third time and what the new character Buck (Simon Pegg) adds to their already large, dysfunctional family.
