It had a really low opening weekend, but the two weekends since have done well... so it's a little disappointing but this weekend (and next) will be a big tell of how it will end up over there.

UPDATE: as of Wednesday

Overseas:359,810,367$

Domestic:307,223,485$

TOTAL: 667,033,852$

The IMAX information is NOT a rumor. Sept. 21st!

Yeah who said it was a rumor? Bay said it himself. Oh...wait...now I see where people got confused.

[Saved]

I'm a Pirates fan. But I'm a TF fan first and foremost. Just can't believe TF will beat it. I am so proud.

That does sound like a lot, but with its current pace, and the boost IMAX, it'll be there soon.

 

[Kargo Warrior]

What's the theater count looking like these days Kargo?

 

[Erzengel]

It made $224,000 today.

And on a Friday it's going to gross more than $224,000. It could do $320,000 tonight. If not by tomorrow.

 

[Kargo Warrior]

It will lose 380 this weekend so it will have 826

 

[megatron01]

hey Kargo, how much do you think TF is going to make in IMax, is there a way to guesstimate?

 

[Kargo Warrior]

Well technically you can't predict anything for sure...but if it has 10 more minutes of material i think it can do anything from 10 to 20

 

[tviceman]

hey Kargo, how much do you think TF is going to make in IMax, is there a way to guesstimate?

I think it'll be right around $10-11 million.

 

[Saved]

Sorry I thought you said 320,000,000 Misread. My bad. But in the real terms of things, have you ever seen 320,000 bucks? I mean probably none of us have. But anyone, read the number wrong.

 

[Erzengel]

Congrats to TF.

Surpassing AWE domestically, $308.6 million.

I guess we won't see til like October if it can surpass Shrek the Third.

 

[DarthAlani]

Pirates has been defeated. A big victory for transformers.

 

[hitpehoaos]

[Avangarde]
