Or anything else for that matter. According to THR , a rumor that Christopher Nolan was going to use footage of Heath Ledger’s performance from The Dark Knight in the film’s sequel is total bunk. “We’re not doing that,” said Nolan’s wife and producing partner Emma Thomas. Phew ! Good thing that’s settled. [ THR /Heat Vision ]

Just as you can believe Michael Bay when he says he hasn’t gone over-budget on Transformers 3 , you can bet the megadirector was counting every recession-era cent for his customary Victoria’s Secret holiday commercial, too. The new ad features some of the brand’s most hallowed models prancing around some the very Chicago locations Bay blew to hell this summer, with the occasional horse and/or opera house tossed in for variety. Read on for the mildly NSFW spot (and the making-of video, with images of the man at work).

Under the radar of most people — not including New Beverly Cinema programmer Phil Blankenship, who brought this film to my attention when he booked it as a midnight movie a few months ago — Standing Ovation (now available at Amazon.com) snuck in and out of theaters this summer. But this shrieky kids’ musical isn’t merely a would-be High School Musical ; it’s the kind of delicious disaster you were hoping Burlesque was going to be.

The weekend box office was once again good to the children of Hogwarts as Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1 managed to claim the top spot, despite a surprisingly strong push from the follicularly themed Tangled . Sadly, it was not all good news for shiny haired princesses as Cher and Anne Hathaway found themselves experiencing a severe holiday hangover. Your weekend receipts are here.

As turkeys across the country begin their slow exit from protective custody and millions of doughy housewives proudly show off their flatscreen TVs purchased for only $299, the holiday box office has a clear winner, a strong upstart, and then a couple of real turkeys. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1 continued its glorious reign at number one, while Tangled (gag me with that cruddy title) is making a strong go at number two. But if you were Cher, a boner pill-pushing Jake Gyllenhaal or the Rock, it was a Black Friday indeed for you. Your Friday box office is here.

Tyne Stecklein’s having a pretty wild week: Her film Burlesque — in which she plays a specialty dancer named Jesse — opened today, and she also performed with her Burlesque co-star Christina Aguilera on Dancing with the Stars and at the American Music Awards. You can add those experiences to Stecklein’s list impressive feats: She used to dance with Cher during her Vegas show, and she even rehearsed with Michael Jackson for his “This Is It” tour shortly before his death. Movieline caught up with the 21-year-old dancer/actress yesterday to see how her breakneck schedule is treating her.

I’ll be there. You’ll be there. The glitter-caked hopes of a generation will be there. A drag queen with a “Half-Breed” outfit will be there. But most of all, utter skepticism will be there.

To prepare ourselves for the gala at hand, let’s line up the 21 biggest questions that need to be answered by tomorrow morning — when the magic, rouge, and absinthe have faded.

After the initial trailer for Burlesque threw glitter up all over the Internet last week, it’s somewhat surprising to see that the first clip from the film is so benign in nature. The musical’s biggest selling points — Cher and Stanley Tucci’s eyeglasses — are nowhere to be found here, replaced instead by Christina Aguilera’s booming vocals on “Something’s Got a Hold on Me” and a dance routine that feels like Flashdance minus the water. Click ahead to watch, but be prepared to tap your foot in unison.
