Dawn did pretty good on its opening weekend. Sad to see that Transformers 4 is already the highest grossing movie world wide this year and will easily make a lot more then $800 million. It will easily make over $300 million just in China. Sure hope its legs will at least fall off pretty soon so that it can't get to a billion.


That ship has sailed, Transformers is definitely making a billion.

You are probably right it needs less then $250 million to reach it.



Hmmmm Transformers...

Hope Hercules with The Rock does decent in the coming weeks :P.

Doubt it will do much better then the Hercules movie from earlier this year plus it only has the chance to do well at the box office for one week because the next week Guardians of the Galaxy opens and that movie looks a lot better going by the trailers of both movies.

@bold that is true. However most of Dwayne Johnsons movies make money. Wondering if this movie can somehow pull that trick again. I think at least double what the last Hercules movie did, but I have not really seen much ads.

Transformers is now definitely the favourite to win the year.



Sex Tape looked terrible, glad it did not do too great critically and financially.

Though I might have to watch it first...

Actually pretty much all his movies made money just from the box office.  The trailers for Hercules are actually pretty decent he was on the Today Show promoting it this morning he also said that he is going to play a DC Comics super hero next but he can't reveal who exactly yet.

Great opening for Lucy from NA, I wonder how it will do elsewhere.
