Transformers Adds Another $29 Million!
The Transformers train keeps rolling along as it had its best day yet on the 4th of July holiday, grossing just under $29 million according to ShowBIZ Data. In two-and-a-half days, it has grossed $65.6 million, set a new Tuesday box office record and become the third-highest grossing movie on a Wednesday, surpassing movies like Star Wars: Episode I and Mel Gibson's The Passion of The Christ which both opened on a Wednesday. It's looking like it will be in heated battle with executive producer Steven Spielberg's War of the Worlds to become the second-highest grossing 4th of July opener over the weekend and may come close to $150 million in its first week of business.
