    I think TF will be around 110mil just before it hits IMax, and then it will try to take down Shrek 3. Go! Transformers! Go!!

    Regardless, it will still take down 2 star wars sequel & possibly another Harry Potter & LOTR in the US all time BO.

    That's astounding.

    I expected this to happen sooner or later. Transformers was just too close to POTC3 gross and as a later release, I figured it would happen sooner or later.

    Funny thing is - according to Box Office Mojo - you could've made 2 Transformers movie with the budget used to make POTC3, and TF has made more money now in the US. How sweet is that?

    Hater? He's just pointing something out.

    Besides, Harry Potter and Pirates royally kicked Transformers' ass worldwide, didn't they?

    Spider-man 3 did very well for a movie that had relatively poor word-of-mouth, didn't it?
