I believe that's more people than went to see the original TF movie total....

Considering that it cost $300 million to make Pirates 3 and only $150 million for Transformers, I'd say for Paramount and all who are financially involved with the Transformers movie that this is HUGE.

the 8pm and the 11:15pm showing were not aired via the normal media channels.. So for all intents and purposes .. the "Official" release date is today 03July07

Its about the same as what a country with a population of 21 million managed to make the film in 3 days.

I think for an opening Monday night, it's pretty damn good.

I cound NOT get tickets for opening day/night showings here.
I went by 3 theaters, even before they were opened, there were LONG lines at all of them...I doubt they were clamoring for RatPieceOfS***.
Just a guess there.
I JUST got tickets for tomorrow, for the only slot still open: 11:00AM.
I don't know about you guys, but here in Austin, Texas...the hype for this film is HUGE. Everyone is talking about the trailers at work.
It is not just TransFans that are stoked.
