Transformers box office mojo9/6/2023 We're projecting that the top 10 from last weekend will all simply move down a spot, with Cars 3 ($30.7 million), Wonder Woman ($25.8 million), All Eyez on Me ($13.6 million) and The Mummy ($8.2 million) rounding out the top 5 behind this Transformers sequel. The first Transformers from 2007 scored a 57% rating, the closest it had come to a "fresh" score, but all of its follow-ups, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (19%), Transformers: Dark of the Moon (35%), and Transformers: Age of Extinction (18%) have been critical flops. There aren't enough movie reviews posted for Transformers: The Last Knight to warrant a Rotten Tomatoes score, but the franchise has never been a hit with critics. The Chinese market will also be integral to the success of Transformers: The Last Knight.īox Office Mojo projects that Transformers 5 will open in 3,900 theaters, which would be the lowest rollout in Transformers franchise history, with each of the past four movies opening in at least 4,000 theaters, with 2014's Transformers: Age of Extinction debuting in 4,233 theaters. That trend would continue with the last installment, 2014's Transformers: Age of Extinction, which opened with $100 million (40.8% of its domestic total), with $245.4 million domestic and $1.1 billion worldwide, thanks to a whopping $320 million from China alone. That movie earned $165.1 million from China alone, whereas the first two movies earned $103 million from China combined. They were followed by Star Trek, with a very respectable 35% decline on last week and a very impressive $246m now in the bank, taking the Star Trek franchise's total lifetime box office over the $1 billion mark, even without adjusting for inflation.įurther down the chart, Kathryn Bigelow's much-anticipated The Hurt Locker opened in only four cinemas but took $144,000 for the best screen average on the list - let's hope it fares better than previous Iraq dramas when it opens out wide soon.Īs for the rest, you'll have to chart them yourself over at Box Office Mojo.Two years later in 2011, the next Transformers movie, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, slipped just a bit, at least domestically, opening with $97.8 million (27.8% of domestic total) en route to $352.3 million domestically but a whopping $1.1 billion worldwide, thanks to the emergence of China as a global box office powerhouse. At the rate Revenge of the Fallen is going, it should hold that record for another two or three days.Ĭounter-programming new release My Sister's Keeper took fifth place with $12m, not bad for a cancer drama in the middle of summer, followed by lacklustre showings from** Year One** and The Taking Of Pelham 1 2 3. The Hangover took $17million for $183 to date, putting it ahead of X-Men Origins: Wolverine in the yearly chart, and Up took $13m to (briefly) become the year's highest-grossing film (in the US), with $250m. It's taken $387million worldwide, making a three-quel a virtual certainty, we'd've thought, and giving those who love Dinobots something to root for.Įlsewhere in the charts, The Proposal slipped 45% to take $18.5m and land the number two spot, with a very respectable $69million in 10 days. Revenge of the Fallen now has the best June opening ever, the biggest Imax weekend ever, as well as landing the (rather less impressive sounding) "highest-grossing non-holiday, non-Friday opening weekend". It took the first Transformers twelve days to cross the $200 million mark, suggesting that this instalment has benefitted from the same ripple effect that led The Dark Knight and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest to do so much better than their predecessors. We knew it would be big, but few would have predicted that Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen would take over $201million at the US box office in only five days, delivering an opening only a hair behind that of The Dark Knight.
