Transformers is climbing the box office charts and is now up to $375 million world wide and $229 million domestic, and that's only 2 or so weeks in with a few big markets still to open.

Wow. That's pretty sweet. Yay giant frikin' robots!!

On the down side, news like this just fuels the argument that G1 was crap enough that it should never resurface.....nevermind the fact that if G1 wasn't so popular in the first place this movie would have never happened......

Yeah, I went there......again......

Yeah, shushhhhh, you're going to dash the delicate hopes and dreams of some people who want to believe that this movie is an utter and complete failure.

But on the other hand. That's pretty cool.

Yeah, IMHO some of the designs suck, but it was a pretty good movie nontheless. The only real thing that irks me is how people just all of a sudden within all the hype started crying how dated G1 is & started jumping on the bandwagon claiming that the original designs could in no way be brought into live action without looking like it was a cartoon, even though we'll never know due to the budget that would be involved to show a comparison.....not to mention there could also be design modifications that would make them look craptastic like Prime & Megs were in the movie game (You could see Prime's head in the cab for crying out loud...not even Masterpiece Prime's design is that lazy).
