Transformers hits $60M Jun. 25, 2009

TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN has broken the record for biggest opening day ever for a Wednesday release, easily eclipsing HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX, which grossed $44.2M back in 2007. In fact, TF2 made so much money that its $60.6M was good enough for second all-time, $7M short of THE DARK KNIGHT, which was released on a Friday, it should be noted.

I actually just got back from seeing this thing and if it has any legs I will be floored. Even for fanboys this thing must be painful. And I've argued with one of our writers because I loved the first one. But I feel bad for championing the franchise now. I seriously might be done with Michael Bay, or Orci and Kurtzman. I haven't decided yet, but I definitely hate someone.

Extra Tidbit: Bay called the tone of this film BEN HUR fused with APOCALYPSE NOW. Yep.

It doesn't have the quality of the first film. Bad writing, messy plot, major plotholes, continuity errors, rushy movie. But at the end of the day, it's awesome all the same. Part one was more composed and had its action, part 2 is insane and has action from start to finish.

Personally, I KNEW it had a rushed script, I KNEW Michael Bay would make a messy sequel, and I also knew that I shouldn't get lost in the hype too much. I didn't expect Ramon Rodriguez to be such an @$$hole, though. I wanted a Decepticon to blow his kneecaps off!

What I'm saying is, when you watch a Bay flick, watch it with a filtered mind. Accept the awesome visuals and FX, throw out the lousy story and frustrating humor.

All in all, I loved TF2. Going to watch it again soon. And I'm pretty sure 3 will be fixed and turn out to be the best in the trilogy.

Kids will like the movie, and unlikely to notice or care how bad it is with all the explosions and such. Whereas Adults SHOULD be able to understand this is shite, and have the mental capacity to be able move on from such tedium.

Because of your constant love for this joke of a movie, I therefore presume you must be either under 12, very childish, or very dim.

@blueman434

You went in there expecting bad writing and cheap laughs? That's like saying you went to a restaurant got served shit on a plate and loved it. Don't you care about things?

Batman as realistic..? uh, no, its called suspension of disbelief. You try and ground silly elements in reality; Transformers fails even in the way people are portrayed.

Asie from the terrible editing, to be truthful, thinking about it, did I actually care about the fights - nah, I had nothing invested in seeing camp robots throw each other around. Nothing at all.

If all you desire is stupidity in films, then that's up to you.

@Alejandro27

Yes, I'm sure you will enjoy it all again. I'm lost for words.

@TAK E

At least you admit its junk. But the problem for me is that is was bad entertainment. The Vanilla Ice of Rap.

@Rollin Hand
The fact you're going to watch this again makes me question anything you say. Do you have masocistic tendencies? Do you enjoy Robot Porn?

I agree, go and see it, make up your own mind... just please, make sure you use it after seeing the film; cause some don't, they even go back for more.

SkunkApe
Nah, don't think I'm in the minority. There's a lot ofpeople that have seen it, that can see it for what it really is.

Suck on what? Sorry, not my thing. GI Joe is on the way; more material for you to jerk off to.

i absolutely loved this movie! yes there were things in it that were a bit questionable and i was surprised by the twins, but there were a few instances i found them funny and they were hardly in the movie! the hatred for jar jar makes much more sense then the twins because jar jar was in a significant amount of film but the twins were in maybe 20 minutes of the 2 and a half hour film.

i feel as though all of you who hated it were expecting a batman-esque film with incredible realism. i went in there expecting some terrible writting and cheap laughs, and oh were there cheap laughs but i loved every minute one of them!

i wonder how you all would suggest they make those fights any clearer with giant robots? hell the slowed down at least one to two moments in each fight to show who was kicking the most ass and they had distant shots to help show the fight. if you're gonna complain about not being able to see fights, complain about the bourne films, or the batman films, or the bonde films first cause those films gave me headaches with their fights.

it's only my opinion though and i had a hell of a lot of fun in the film and that's all i wanted! fun and cartoon like realism!

i cam out of TF2 satisfied. i went in really just wanting to see some awesome fight scenes, explosions, and megan fox.

i got what i wanted.

i guess the best analogy for what i said in my earlier post is music.

i love classical music. classical songs are composed by geniuses and have so many little intricacies and subtleties that make them works of art. i appreciate classical music.

but when i got to a club, i dont want to hear classical music. i want to hear something with a bunch of bass that make s the girls shake their asses. soulja boy will do that. and for that, i appreciate things like the "crank dat".

i know that it's not the most intelligent or groundbreaking piece of art (TF2 and soulja boy) but they serve their purpose and are great when they're used properly and taken for what they are.

@TAE K

NO, no, no... Is it really that hard to get across. A lot of people do see this, but a few here do not.

Just because its labelled as simply "entertainment" does not mean it can be any shit just slapped together. There's still a degree of high craft and skill needed. A good story is ultimately what entertainment is about!

There is no "movie" and "film" bullshit and each for "different purposes", that's an utter load of pretentious drivel, a total cop-out; a great movie is entertaining on one level, but also intelligent and thought provoking on another; that is what great movies are supposed to be.

You actually state it yourself, that there's nothing in the movie; it lacks basic elements of storytelling; character development, relatability, structure, great dialogue...and just flat-out fails to have a decent plot, full stop!

As an example, compare this crap to something like the DARK KNIGHT, or the BOURNE FILMS. Or many of the films by someone like James Cameron.

In this it's nothing but CLUNKY, FAT, CAMP ROBOTS hitting each other in which you can barely tell what is going on. Nothing but explosion after another, with characters somehow managing to outrun them! HOW MANY FUCKING EXPLOSIONS CAN YOU SEE BEFORE YOU GET BORED!!!! I though TERMINATOR 4 did exaclty the same thing. Is there a huge difference between these two films? (Terminator being a little better...) But think about that. There's nothing creative, original or interesing in this. The mind boggles that people consider this great. Its really a sad state of affairs.

Bay is not only laughing his ass off at the money he'll get for this, but at people that defend it; that people suck this turgid garbage up without really having thought about what they've just seen.

And how the hell does anyone just "switch of their brain" in reality? Is there a button you press on the side of your head? Absolute nonsense.

Even compared to the other Bay films it's just shambolic in every way; a cynide pill sugar coated with the 200 million that was spent on it and dipped in CGI shit.

This is the MacDonalds of moviemaking. Plain and simple.

If you don't understand why this is bad, I actually pity you.

there films and there are movies. they serve different purposes.

sometimes i watch films when i want to hear a good story that'll make me think about a concept i've never thought about before.

sometimes i'll watch a movie when i wanna see some shit blow up.

what makes a GREAT movie is not necessarily what makes a GREAT film (and vice-versa). they satisfy different needs and expectations for what i want to watch at any particular moment.

comparing the two is like comparing apples and pizzas. saying TF2 sucks b/c there was bad writing is just as silly as apples suck because they don't have pepperonis on them.

like i said before, the whole transformers universe was initially created to sell toys to children.

@kinser68

Well, I, like I imagine a lot of people, do actually consider movies as very important. It takes a lot of hard work to make a movie. And at great risk.

For you to dismiss film only shows your ignorance of the process and intelligence that does go into making great films.

Again, I love action movies, BUT
movies such as this particular turd are very bad, rotten to its stinking core.

Beyond that, the fact that the film is incredibly sexist, racist, crude, and an insult to anyone watching it with half a brain.

Can you not really see how stupid the whole thing is? Even entertainment itself should be smart, well written, acted and directed.

You just don't seem to have cottoned on!

You need to open your eyes a little more and start thnking about the power of the medium and the affect it can have on viewers, even trash like this.

Yes, movies are supposed to be fun, as well as anything else, but this is so terrible in so many ways it defies belief.

The fact that people keeep making excuses for this crap is deplorable. And please, don't plead for Bay, he doesn't give two flying shits about the audience, which is clear by what he's put in the cinemas. The fact that he made 80 million from residuals on the last Trashformers, you think he cares what anyone says.

And its an insult to compare Bay to someone like Micheal Jackon. One is talented and will be missed, the other, a hack of the highest order, that would be replaced in a shot, by another "genius" in being able to blow things up.

The only 'level' it went from was from idiocy to mindless drivel.

You people that try and defend this film really have serious problems; and although the English Patient is certainly not a favourite of mine, I'd rather watch that than a load of shit blowing up. How many times can you really watch that? You must have the mind of a fly. Its fucking scary how many morons there are out there.

I'm all for cool, clever action movies, but this trash is an insult to the human race.

Besides the utter lamenes of the whole thing, how can anyone enaage and relate to a bunch of robots puchching one another?

It's just so boring!!!!

I think it's disgusting that audiences can accept and settle for such appalling, mindless cinema as this.

There is no excuse anymore.

The fact that you agree with MELKOR.... you should be really ashamed.

That extra tidbit is classic. Woof.

For all of these Transformers apologists, I'm sick of reading the same shit: "just shut off your brain;" "enjoy the action, tune the dumb shit out; "had some hot babes and badass explosions." Transformers exists for one reason only, and it's to suck in as much money as possible. Saying that it's just harmless, dumb summer fun is not good enough for me. The first Indiana Jones, the Road Warrior, Terminator 2, and Dark Knight did not make the same compromising decisions that are in TF2, and I consider them summer popcorn blockbusters. Are those four previously mentioned movies pretentious art house films that didn’t make a dime???? THEY ARE FOUR OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL MOVIES OF ALL TIME. Apparently it can be done.

It’s not like I’m getting all hot and bothered about one brainless movie; the success of TF2 will lead to more Wolverines, more G.I. Joe’s, more G-Force’s. I’m getting hot and bothered about a trend of mindless shit that eventually, if people kept paying for it, will extend to a YEAR-LONG tradition, not just during the summer. There is simply no way that TF2 is going to hold up even 10 years from now after multiple viewings. I dare you to try and sit through all of ID4 now; it’s unbearable, even though people loved it and it made tons of money initially. Transformers is another piece of pop trash that gets forgotten once the next one comes out.

"If the story sucks, ITS A SHITTY FILM."

uhh... TF2 isn't a film, its a movie.

I dont think when Michael Bay sat down to plan this movie he was thinking "i wonder what will make the audience get an emotional attachment to Ironhide" he was probably thinking "i wonder how many explosions i can fit on the screen at once"

i think he achieved what he wanted out of this movie.

PEOPLE THIS IS A MOVIE BASED ON TOYS and CARTOONS! I would have been pissed if they took a dark/serious route.

I think the criticism is just following the new anti-sequel trend that's coming along.

its ok though, maybe sequels will be trendy again when Iron Man comes out.

Or it will seal the deal.

TF 2 was not a bad movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Was the story overly-complex? Sure. Is Megan Fox a horrific actress? Yes. The Twins are being made out to be the second coming of Jar Jar Binks, which is patently untrue. They don't have that much screen time and they are not really that bad. In fact, Wheelie was worse (but still not cringe-inducing). This was definitely a Michael Bay film - I'm guessing if you like Michael Bay (I do) then you have enjoyed the two TF movies...if you don't, then you haven't.

TF 2 is not the end of cinema. It is not "what's wrong with Hollywood". There were 100 movies released this year that are worse than TF 2. Get over yourselves.
