Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix may have knocked the Transformers Movie out of the number one slot at the box office this weekend, but it is not all bad for the Transformers Movie. ComingSoon.net has reported that the film has already made $146.4 million overseas and $320.2 million worldwide. Not bad for a film that has yet to open in France, Germany, Japan, Mexico and the United Kingdom.

I'm still going to watch it 3 or 4 more times in the theatre, maybe more. We should all keep going to see it every weekend. Make it the new longest lasting movie at theatres.

Not to mention, it beat the records of several of the biggest films of all time.
Spider-Man*
Spider-Man 2
Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest
Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone*
Even Spider-Man broke more records than Harry Potter.
So for TF to do that, that's saying something.
Not to mention, Boxofficemojo says it's the biggest robot movie ever, even beating out Terminator 2: Judgment Day.
And it even beat out Passion Of The Christ.* (Let's not get into that discussion, please? That's for another forum.)
That's a hell of a list to top, and it did it.
It broke records for the biggest Monday, Tuesday, and Fourth Of July, ever.
Biggest demographics going to see the film:
African-Americans
Latinos
And Paramount/Dreamworks themselves said...mothers. (They're the second biggest audience behind the fanbase.)
Harry Potter may very well dominate the box office this period, but it certainly won't be able to outshine all of the records smashed by TransFormers, if at all. Especially when you add in the countries that haven't even gotten it yet.
Now that...is a feat beyond our wildest expectations.
*= biggest 7 day take for a non sequel film.

Actually these numbers have been fudged.
The movie opened early.
It was playing 24/7 in some locations.
So realistically... they fudged the numbers. Any titles they wish to claim that have no right to. Its called cheating.

How? How have they been fudged?
Each day the records were broken on were listed. It's not that difficult to understand. And it's worldwide take is total, not for specific days. There is no number fudging, no cheating. You're just all pissed of cuz it didn't tank like you and the Bayhaters said it would. Get over yourself.

You know, I was wondering when the resident haters would show up and sprout some bullshit in a lame effort to discredit this movie.
I expected something a bit more than "fudged figures".
But I guess at this stage they don't have much left to hold onto.

Kind of like fudging a picture of Michae Bay as a dog's head as it poo poos on a picture of transformers. Both are rather lame techniques.

Yes, the numbers were fudged. When box office totals came out after the six day opening, Paramount's numbers were off.
They UNDERREPORTED earnings by over a million dollars.
As for the 24 hour showings... let's look at that.
Those showing took place at the top ten multiplexes in the United States. Let's assume a window of three hours. Most theaters had 5 showings per screen, so this gives Transformers an additional three showings a day. Let's go nuts and say each showing sold out, each theater held 500 people, and the average ticket price was $10, even though all of these figures are likely much lower.
So, that's $5000 per showing. That puts them at $15,000 for each theatre with 24/7 showing. $150,000 per day. That's... just $1,050,000 for the week, even with the high figures(actual per-screen averages ran from $3000-6500 for the opening week of the film). So, basically... Transformers can legitimately claim its records.
And the studio doesn't claim the records, either. The information comes from Media By Numbers, which is an independent tracker. They have no incentive to "fudge" the numbers in one direction or another.
You have the right to dislike the film. But if you're going to make claims like this, it helps to have the facts to back it up.

I saw Potter this past Sunday. Sadly, it was not very good, especially compared to the first two. I had a hard time following the plot, some of the major characters only had two scenes, and the motivations behind this movie's main antagonist were very confusing. The guy next to me fell asleep and started to snore. I was pretty disappointed.

This movie is going to hit $1 billion worldwide. No doubt in my mind. I went to a matinee' last week (a MATINEE!!) and the upper portion of the theater was full (there were 5 empty rows out of 35)...something you almost never see during the day, whether school is on or not. it's a very good sign, indeed. Wait til it hits Japan...I'll wager $100 million the first week in japan alone.

Don´t get any ilusions. The 300 million mark is very good. hitting the 500 mark is going to be very hard if not impossible, let alone a billion. But the fact the movie has got this kind of revenue is incredible.

The franchise itself could top 1 billion with the second movie and into the third( if indeed this is a trilogy or more) but the first movie will probably top out in 400-500 million range in theaters and perhaps upwards of 600 mill with dvd releases.

I believe potter is open in the U.K. already whereas transformers still has 2 more weeks before it hits there. The fair comparison would be how much money is made overall once the markets are all equal.

So what if Harry Potter made 10 mill more than Transformers. Transformers hasn't been released on the big world wide markets besides the U.S. Harry Potter already has.

I will admit I went to see Harry Potter....HOWEVER, I used a Free Pass on the movie, so no money for it.
As a reader of the books, I didn't like the 5th one as much, but it is good movie to see with a bunch of friends that love to put the "Mystery Science Theater 3000 Twist" on the movie.
-Gwop looked like the boy's face on the Mad TV Logo
-"He's Back" made everyone yell sarcastic marks in our theater, my friend "No Sh** Sherlock!" XD
I aslo went to see TransFormers a third time and the theater was packed, so I was happy to see the movie still strong in the 2nd week.

So it's more than doubled it's budget, and will easily pass $400 million. Since it has some very heavily populated countries to open, it could even approach $450 million.
Not surprised that HP5 has surpassed it within a week though.
