Dark Of The Moon Overtakes ROTF in Lifetime Gross

Standing at nearly $1 Billion dollars worldwide, Dark Of The Moon overtakes Revenge Of The Fallen in lifetime revenue according to Boxofficemojo. DOTM has grossed $882,389,000 in just 26 days compared to the ROTF $836,297,228 lifetime take.

All this and DOTM hasn't even opened in Japan yet, which it will later this week. It is safe to say that DOTM will reach the $1 Billion mark. Perhaps fans can celebrate by going to see DOTM again.

I didn't think it would outdo RotF, I'm glad I was wrong.

Weapon: Sonic Boomer Laser
The biggest reason this is happening is actually quite simple, and you'll read about it in various articles about recent top-grossing movies. This Transformers movie, like many other recent movies, is in 3D, meaning they can charge a higher price. That means more revenue per person, so even if the same number of people see it, they'll pull in more money. In fact quite a bit fewer people could see it and they'd still make more, because 3D prices can be as much as 50% higher than normal prices. It's like inflation, except that you actually are getting some "value" added (not simply buying the same product, i.e. 2D, for a higher price), and you have to factor that in when making comparisons. Of course thanks to regular inflation, where the dollar simply becomes worth less and less over time, future movies will forever continue to break past records because it will cost more dollars to see them, regardless of their actual quality or how many people saw them.
Want: Universe Astrotrain, Ratchet, Jetfire.

Have for trade: RTS Lugnut, Perceptor, Jazz, Wreck-gar, Tracks, Laser Prime, Bumblebee; Generations Warpath, Kup, Blurr, Thundercracker, Wheeljack, Dirge; RTS Legends Megatron, Starscream, Optimus Prime, Gold Bumblebee, Prowl, and Trailcutter; Animated voyager Shockwave, Blitzwing, and Skywarp.

That's the FIRST thing I thought when I saw this article.


There is NO WAY the TF Movie franchise is over, my friends.
