See Hasbro, Transformers is popular in the UK. Now do something about it.

Yeah I really could see Transformers getting an oscar for special effects. Unlike the ungoldy expensive and extremely dissapointing spiderman 3.
TF cost a 100 million, and they made 600 million profit. Not bad. Can't wait for the sequel!

comon people, lets help it win an award.
Looks like a three way race at this point. As much as I liked TF, "300" was the better movie...at the very least, can we try to beat out Harry Plopper and the Something of Somewhere?

No seriously.
Special Effects, yeah. Best Picture, no. Not a chance in the lowest depths of Hell.
$700+ eh? That was seriously unexpected. With DVD sales, I can expect to see it go well beyond a billion.

I saw it 7 times....
6 times in regular cinema, and once at IMAX
Which means,... I added more money that you! Ha.

I paid for it once, then discovered magical pirate DVD's. But I can't talk about it.

Oh yes. This is wicked awesome news. I was there for the 8:00PM showing July 3rd.
I saw this six times in the Century 20 (premier) theatre, once in the Century 12 (cheap), and once in the IMAX up in Phoenix. BUT, I went with my sister on all eight trips, and my dad came along for the trip to IMAX.
So $12 per each of the first six visits is $72, plus two convenience charges for purchasing online tickets for the first three trips brings it to $78. The cheap theatre was $6.50 for two tickets, and IMAX was about $43 for three tickets.
My grand total contribution to Transformers comes to: $127.50
And it was worth every penny, every time.
