There’s a lot of green for the red, white and blue.

‘Captain America: The First Avenger’ took the number one spot at the box office this weekend, with a haul of $65.8 million.

That puts the Chris Evans vehicle on track to be the summer’s biggest superhero movie.

In a fitting finale, Harry Potter’s magic is making box office records disappear.

‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2′ made $168.6 million in its opening weekend, which was the biggest Friday-Sunday in movie history. ‘The Dark Knight’ earned $158.4 million in its debut.

The staggering sum comes after Harry made nearly $100 million on its first day, which is just plain ridiculous.

To put the wizardry in perspective, the movie earned roughly eight times what (second place) ‘Transformers: Dark of the Moon’ – the year’s biggest movie – banked this weekend.

‘Transformers: Dark of the Moon’ made a lot of green this red, white, and blue holiday weekend.

The latest film in the franchise had the biggest Fourth of July opening ever, raking in $116.4 million for the four-day weekend, and easily secured the #1 spot at the box office.

Shia LaBeouf’s and his robot car buddies smashed the animated ‘Cars 2,’ which fell to #2 with a four-day weekend total of $33 million.

The Cameron Diaz-Justin Timberlake comedy ‘Bad Teacher’ came in third with $17.5 million, followed by ‘Larry Crowne,’ starring Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts, which earned just $16 million.

Last week’s champ, ‘Green Lantern,’ lit up the box office for another $18.4 million to snag third place.
