Director Michael Bay's new blockbuster sequel keeps raking in the dough. According to
Variety,
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen took in an estimated $27 million on Thursday.
The highest five-day gross for a film opening on a Wednesday is
Spider-Man 2's $152.4 million, a mark which
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen could surpass. It remains to be seen, though, if the film can top the all-time five-day tally set by
The Dark Knight's $203.8 million gross. Some estimates put
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen's five-day haul between $160 and $180 million, though some believe it could be even higher.
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is playing in 4,234 screens, and 169 of which are IMAX screens, where another record was set as well. IMAX reported that the film grossed $1 million on opening day, a single-day record, with a hefty $24,000 per-screen average on IMAX screens.

Action & SFX wise and eye candy wise, Transformers 2 was amazing.
A great film but definately not a blockbuster
Watchmen was good, very complexed and i have to give the writer of the and yes Zack Synder major kudos, for bringing that film to life, considering the struggle they went through and of course how long it suffered in production hell.
But man, they could have at least gave Dr Manhattan some boxers, i mean what did they do run out of production money?
But still my own individualised opinion stands.
Star Trek (is best movie of the year so far)
&
Drag Me To Hell (Is second but its the most original film we have seen in a long time, and Raimi redeemed himself)
Hmmmm its a nice title Diaigma....What about?
Transformers: Unicron shoves his Galavatron In The Earth
Transformers: Unicron Humps the Earth
Anyone?
The first one was better.
watchmen had nothing exciting about it at all, Transformers obviously wasnt great, but it delivered its SFX, more than most movies usually do.........its like u guys sit here with your note pads and critique a michael bay film to get an oscar, are you really serious? the movie did it we all know it was gonna do, draw huge crowds and bring generations of Transformers fans together, it doesnt have to be well written for people to enjoy the action in it
i think watchmen tops this crap as far as movies of the year...
and as far as drag me to hell?
that movie was nothing but buch a bunch of random images at the worst times...
by far 2 of the worst movies this year....
The acting was good, the story sucked, the visuals were amazing and the directing was good in the terms of camera work.
I guess when you see the first time you too amazed at the production, but when you look at it from a film or a director/writer perspective, the film is a barrage of explosions and metal smashing together, which is a waste of great production money.
I hope that answers and fulfills your curiousity, Incmob
Its like a live-action megazords without no power rangers, mindless plot development, mindless character development, way tooooooo long.
Also this one just seemed like a rehash of the first installment, except lets pretend to kill of Optimus, add in more transformers, which aren't worth bringing in to the story and introduce a crummy villain, known as the fallen. OOOOO and lets not forget the annoying room mate, you wanted to die but never did
Best action film of the year, most probable
But this film has not touched status as Best Film Of The Year, and its far from it.
Best movies of the year so far, in my opinion are
Star Trek & Drag Me To Hell
One was a very faithful spectacular reboot, while the other was brilliant in portraying what Hollywood is lacking, originality, plus Sam went back to his roots.

v
and best film of the year plz - Star Trek & Drag Me To Hell.
Plus the news currently will shatter this films box office, the news of course being that of MJ, everyone is paying respects and mourning the loss of a legend, not excited about Transformers 2 no more.
And if another person compares this to The Dark Knight somebody ought to slap them. Dark Knight is a rare breed of summer movies.
this movie's gonna dominate the box office despite the number of bad reviews
there is always way too much hype on any summer blockbuster or even the one in March (cough) Watchmen (cough)...look how shitty terminator did in the US
I paid $9.75 & well "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" was "NOT" worth it!!
Thank God I only paid $5.00 for the "Remake" of "The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3" which was a dud ..and Oh Um! ...not worth $9.75...I'm kicking myself I didn't wait till the weekend to see ..."Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen"....too much hype on this Summer film!...!!!
