Transformers 2 was already the top grossing movie worldwide but as of Friday July 3rd, it passed Up as the top grossing movie of the year in the US by taking in an estimated domestic gross $17.8 million for a US total of $268.7 million compared to Up's domestic gross of $261.0 million. Up's total took 36 days to achieve, Transformers 2 took only 10 days.
In addition it just eeked out a win for Friday versus Ice Age 3 with $17.8M to $17.0M. So far Transformers has been number one two out of the first three days of Ice Age's release.
As for Saturday and Sunday, both are expected to make an estimated $43 million for the three day weekend but exactly which will be crowned #1 at the box office is too close to call. Saturday numbers put Ice Age 3 back on top with an estimated take of $11.0 million to $10.0 million (for a 2-2 tie). As for Sunday, Transformers 2 is estimated at $15.2M to Ice Age's 3 $15.0 million but the day has barely started so consider those numbers just placeholders until more solid numbers come in by the late afternoon. I was unable to find any numbers for the international box office so that remains blank on the chart below.

ReplyDeleteReplying to Hugo ruvinho:
ReplyDeleteTrue however aslong as they make the same amount of money back that they spent on the film then they will make a profit on all the DVD and Toy sales for the film such as the hugely overprised Combiner Class/Supreme Class Devastator.
Ice Age seems to be a very good movie. This animated movie has got the largest opening. The movies performance at the box office is outstanding. For more information refer http://www.entertainmenttrend.com/ice-age-dawn-of-the-dinosaurs-worldwide-opening-rakes-in-record-millions/
