"Transformers: Dark of the Moon" is so amazing because this movie got box office with earning so high. Yeah records everywhere. "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" collected $97.4 million this weekend (from Friday to Sunday), according to studio estimates. It's the biggest Independence Day weekend, opening beating $88.2 million from "Spider-Man 2." And also It's the largest opening weekend of the year, passing the $90.2 million debut of "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides."
Michael Bay's $195 million Transformer 3 is projected to finish the four-day holiday weekend with $116 million, bringing its six-day cumulative total to $181 million. "Dark of the Moon" will likely never catch its predecessor "Revenge of the Fallen," at least domestically. If we compare, that 2009 sequel had earned a massive $214.9 million after six days. According to Paramount, 62% of "Moon's" audience was male and 55% younger than 25. Showings in 3-D continued to account for 60% of its gross, and IMAX screens single-handedly brought in an estimated $13.8 million over the four-day weekend.
On Saturday, "Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" crossed $1 billion worldwide, becoming just the eighth film ever to do so. Despite being the weakest "Pirates" film domestically ($233.7 million through today), "On Stranger Tides" has pillaged an extraordinary $774 million overseas. The only other movies to have earned more on foreign shores are "Avatar" and "Titanic."
