Domestic:$300,569,000

So around 615$

Nice!

Does anyone know what it's at Worldwide? That's the real important number. I always prefer Worldwide over just domestic, it shows the grand total of how much the film is making.

> $600 million. Ooops someone beat me to it.

 

[arty2]

YAY!!!!!!!!!! $300 mil

[DarthAlani]

300 million. The Transformers haters must be pissed.

 

[DOG LIPS]

300 million. The Transformers haters must be pissed.

Nah, I'm sure Bay is pretty happy.

 

[Golgo-13]

That's not necesserelly true(i would love to be better of course)

Look at Pirates 2...over a billion for a pretty crappy movie a lot worse then the first one.

And so was the second Matrix and the Star Wars prequels and so on...

X Men 2 and Spiderman 2 was clearly better than their predicessors...

 

[Kargo Warrior]

Well yeah but SP2 made LESS than SP1 ....that's the point,the quality of the sequel doesnt have anything to do with boxoffice ...

X3 was 10 times worse than X2 and it made more.

all this means is that transformers 2 will be a huge box-office success even if it is awlful, however if it is a good film it will do HUGE numbers.

I really hope its good, but then again, I'm not really worried.

And that's what I hate about hollywood. When they get a kick a$$ franchi$e going, half the time they hire hack writer$ and/or director$ and pu$h out crap becau$e all they see are $'s. Please don't mess this one up!

A little interesting trivia..TF passed the 300 mark in 39 days and Titanic passed the same mark in 44...right there it can be seen how much the piracy,internet and a lot more competition affects the movies nowdays

 

[Kargo Warrior]

"Transformers" slid 47% but remained a significant foreign player with $16.3 million at 5,239 in 56 territories, led by a solid 36% second-frame hold in Japan to $3.4 million and a 43% decline in Germany to $2.6 million. The actioner has performed well above forecasts with a surprisingly strong $328 million overseas cume.

Total: 631$ millions

 

[Saved]

Wow. At this rate, two three weeks it could be at 700 million. That'll be impressive.

Yeah you know i was reading a lot of forums lately from various topics(music,psychology,MMA,boxing,tennis,movies,etc.etc) and 95 % love the movie...and this is a quote i took from a fan which is probably very close to the truth and that's the huge thing about the movie,it made a TON of non-transformers fans into fans:

2 years ago:

You-I like transformers.
Guy 2-That lame old cartoon? get a life & stop playing with toys.

Now:

You-I like Transformers
Guy 2-Hell yeah, that movie was awsome!! & hey, good luck on your collecting!! I'm going to go go get that Camero one myself.....

Camaro.

But yeah. I noticed a lot of the guys who found it stupid last year are all front runners for it now. Pisses me off, but I don't hate it.

 

[Kargo Warrior]

Yeah i know it's Camaro i made copy/paste on the quote

 

[Saved]

Wow. Then that person is ******ed and a front runner.

 

[tviceman]

Sometimes, seeing is believing.

 

[Erzengel]

I had my reservations about Transformers from the beginning.

Michael Bay?

Megatron's not a gun?

Even Prime's design at first didn't appeal to me.

Then having Cullen as Prime again, the trailers, and sneak peaks and I warmed up to the movie.
