yeah the funny thing here in akron ohio all you see is transformers every where...everyday there has been big stories about it in the paper....hell there was a guy in the city i grew up in who had his name legally changed to optimus prime. but the name transformers has been everywhere...people who never liked it before the movie has told me they went to see it and being there was no real compition this weekend with other movies it has lived up to it's hype. the movie was awsome and was more than i had expected....but the best part was that other movies moved their release date to make way for transformers...and next week i'd say who's harry potter? i think after the first 3 people started giving up on that one....

 

Mr. Optimus Prime is a member here lol Well known and liked, he is.

And go TF! I'mma have to see this movie again soon.

 

dang, I hope it beats Pirates and Spiderman. Everyone go watch the movie again!

 

I am pretty impressed that it was able to do so well. What really matters is the approval ratings, which is positive. That means people will go back and see it again.

 

i've seen it twice, while i'm trying to help sales...........i've gone before night so it's cheaper.............sorry

 

Agreed. You should get credit.
