Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen opened at midnight on Wednesday in North America, and despite the mostly negative reviews, it seemed to make a lot of money in the last 4 days.
$60.6 million was made in its first full day of release on Wednesday, which was wiped the floor with the previous record holder, Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix, by $15 million. This total included the $16 million made from the midnight openings.
$28.6 was made on Thursday, bringing the total to just under $90 million.
Friday proved to be another profitable day,with $36.7 million, bringing the new total to over$125 million. This is also the 10th highest Friday total ever, which is again very impressive.
Saturday edged up even higher with $39.5 million To beat the $203.8 million 5 day record set by The Dark Knight last year, the film will have to make $39 million on Sunday, which is an extremely tall order.
The one thing from all of this is that Paramount Pictures, Dreamworks SKG and Hasbro must be very happy.
