The Hollywood Reporter,
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen became the clear box office winner when updated box office estimates revealed the Michael Bay sequel took in $42.4 million, while
Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs came in under its estimate, earning less than $42 million.
The initial
initial box office report indicated both films earned an estimated $42.5 million over the holiday weekend, but it seemed Fox's estimates for
Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs fell a little short.
Final official box office numbers will be released later today, so we'll keep you updated on this box office race as soon as more information comes in.

curious question....how much money can IMAX expect for Harry Potter releasing it ten days or longer after its original release of July 15? i think IMAX is making a mistake in not release Harry Potter on july 15....anyone know in their city if IMAX is delaying the Harry Potter on its screens
along with that. harry potter is deffinitely a money maker, all of its movies are in the top 50 of all time. so even though t2 made more money, you can't say that hp wont make big money.
+ t2 sucked, it truly did in my standards, I just wanna know how can other people like it. but oh- well it is there opinion. along with that HP will be released after 3 weeks than the release of t2. so you can't compare them in the same week's earnings, t2 would've been in the theaters for 4 weeks already, and HP will be just starting.
+ if you're comparing t2's 2 weeks 290 million to the 290 million harry potter 5 made. I do well remind you that the first one made it above the 300 million.
for ICE AGE, i think that t2 will deffinitely put ice age in his shade. not because its better, since I didn't see ice age. but because of the earnings of last week.
IDK, hollywood is turning shitty anyways, good thing warner bros is still standing up.
the last one got little over 290 million in like 6 months it might do well worldwide
Ice Age is getting pretty old and weak by today's standards
