That's awesome. Glad WW's 3rd weekend topped it lmao.

Sad thing is that the movie will still make it's money overseas despite the weak opening.

Not necessarily. China eats bad movies for breakfast. They'll keep seeing Transformers movies for some reason.

@Gamer99z

Well you have to consider that it's being compared to previous entries and it also has to contend with recouping its own budget plus turning a profit. It should do this, just not as easily as it did before.

That shitty ass turd doesn't deserve a tenth of that opening.

Doesn't matter, will probably make obscene amounts overseas.

Yup, we're getting to the point where garbage movies like The Mummy, Transformers,XXX, can make insane profit thanks to overseas markets, which means they'll just keep happening even though they're a flop domestically.

You guys need to understand that they don't make these movies for the domestic market anymore. China had a ban on Hollywood movies until the mid-90s. Hell, Independence Day was literally the first western movie that got a wide distribution in their Cinema. Thanks to how booming their economy is (lol housing bubbles), a lot more people are going to movies.

I grew up with transformers (cartoons and toys) and have been a damned sucker for these movies. This one was the worst of all, being even worse than revenge of the fallen. The plot is something that a 10 year old would write.
