That's gotta have something to do with ITV's inability to premiere films. We've had 4 premieres from ITV (The Boat That Rocked, Fast and Furious 4, Funny People and Cirque Du Something or Other (can't remember the full title)) and we're nearly half way through the year, given that they have deals with 2 studios they must be sitting on a lot of films...
I reckon ITV will play a few during the Olympics to attract the anti-sport crowd. They still have The Dark Knight, The Hangover, The Invention of Lying, Invictus, Sherlock Holmes, Curious George 2 and more..
but a few Universal films are being picked up by Channel 4 (Inglorious Basterds, Bruno) and BBC (Nixon/Frost)
