I haven't watched a single Harry Potter movie, yet.  Go figure.

I voted Transformers.  The first two sucked serious ass but still made fistfulls of money.  I could be wrong but aren't Transformers movies always the highest grossing whichever year they come out?  Yeah.  I'm probably wrong.  Oh well, this is the internet!


Nope.
