Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Passes $300 Million at the Box Office

Source:  The Hollywood Reporter
Michael Bay's latest film becomes the first film of the year to crack mega-blockbuster status. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen has become the first film to crack $300 million at the domestic box office this year.

Monday's box office figures have the sequel's North American tally at $299.8 million, while the international grosses passed $300 million as well, for a worldwide take of over $600 million. Still, the Monday box office crown ended up going to the animated hit Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, which barely squeaked by with $6.5 million to Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen $6.4 million.

Both films face unique competition this week with two different brands of comedy: Hayden Panetierre's teen comedy I Love You, Beth Cooper and Sacha Baron Cohen's very adult comedy Bruno, which both open on Friday.

I was rooting for Dark knight to beat it. I doubt anything that comes out this year will beat it. Maybe Iron Man 2 has potential. Definitely, Avengers will blow everything apart when or if it comes out.

Can anyone tell me what the fuck this sentence is supposed to say in English: "I saw "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" opening day and I was impressed then and I still I'm not imnpressed!!"

Cel, maybe if you let go of the exclamation point key once in a while you'd stop to read your sentences.

If a stupid Transformers movie makes loads of money, a beautiful Transformers movie can beat Titanic.

I saw "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" opening day and I was impressed then and I still I'm not imnpressed!!

"Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" takes everything that was bad about the first Transformers movie two years ago, and amplifies it to deafening proportions!!!

Revenge of The Fallen will probably start to fall off the map in a couple weeks, then we'll see insane DVD sales, and then the grosses will be gone. And then we'll have the third movie: Transformers: Rise of the something, or TF: Return of the something, or TF: Dead Man's Something, TF: Shia and the Philosopher's something, or TF: The Empire Strikes Back

There are a few parts in Cooper that look funny but not enough to make me buy a ticket.

Wait! All the teenagers will buy Beth Cooper tickets, and then sneak into Bruno; an excellent strategical move, Mr. Columbus. ;)

That's really cool about Transformers. But about Newkill and Peaches war, Newkill just has to shut up. He just wants to feel badass when really he is just some nerd sitting at home trying to act cool. Sorry just has to be said.
