Shut up, I'm on a diet!

 

But fudge is delicious. Chewy, chocolate tasty fudge. you know you want some .

This fudge I can understand as 100 million is the bar but the tf2 fudge seems pointless

Last time was arguably worse, as Tele pointed out. Paramount had already reported actuals (TO THE DOLLAR) up to a certain point, and then fudged the shit out of them on Monday when they realized the Sunday projection was way too optimistic.

 

 

Thanks for the memory refresher. Yeah, that was pretty bad.

Difference is that 100 million was the bar for tf4 but the 200 or so for tf2 was well beyond any expectations

 

If we want to get technical, DH2 can get the boot from the 200 in 5-day club as well since it needed 3D to get there. TF2 actually sold more tickets than DH2 in 5 days. TA1 and TDK are the only ones to legitimately reach $200m in 5 days with 2D tickets.

tf2 would've only been the second movie to hit 200 in five days. that's huge. can see why they did it.

Maybe they didn't want the China OW to beat the US either?

 

 

That's an interesting suggestion.

[#ED]

Actually no they didn't TDKR def above TDK

Don't even bother with questions like that,My China Q though.,,

It's obvious why they did it. At the time only one other movie had reached 200 in 5 days. It was and still is a very, very exclusive club.

Oh this is awesome:

At the domestic box office, the fourth installment in the immensely successful franchise opened to $100 million*.

 

*Other outlets are reporting that Paramount is inflating the weekend figure for Transformers: Age of Extinction, and that the actual number is around $98 million (or lower). Mojo's policy is to stick with the number that the studio has reported, though, and will list $100 million until Paramount issues a revision.

 

Nice, Ray...nice.

Still nothing compared to Brandon Gray's smackdown five years ago.

 

With $200.1 million* since its Wednesday debut

 

* Note: Revenge of the Fallen's weekend gross fell $3 million short of Paramount's Sunday estimate, which would have put the five-day opening at $198.2 million. Though shy of $200 million, it would have still ranked second among the all time five-day starts. However, Paramount revised its grosses from Wednesday and Thursday upward, and that's what pushed the total past $200 million. Wednesday went from $60.6 million to $62.0 million, and Thursday went from $28.6 million to $29.1 million. Paramount reported that the differences came from unreported showings from the movie's midnight openings on Wednesday night, which went from the previously reported $16 million at around 3,000 theaters to $16.8 million at close to 3,300 theaters, as well as late reports from institutional IMAX locations and theaters in Puerto Rico and some Caribbean islands (which the studio counts in its domestic numbers), which accounted for $1.1 million of the difference.

Gotta give him credit where it's due. At least he did something for once. Transformers: Revenge of the Asterisk Part II.

[ecstasy]

yeah  some saying 98 low as 97.5 , id go 97.5 even 98 bit of a stretch

 

 

Damn Paramount, lol.

Would have been a nice for a film to have a opening like that this year

[Sam]

Man, I always missed all the fun. Or in this case a piece of delicious fudge.
