Transformers made how much

You're not the only one. With each new addition to the franchise, the reviews have gotten worse and U. Even worse, it was widely panned by both critics and audiences. The film earned a score of 15 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, the lowest of the series so far. That was the plan. Box-office figures: UIP; figures adjusted for inflation.

The number one actor is Shia LaBeouf , who starred in the first three Transformers movies. Number two is Tom Cruise , who is the star of the Mission: Impossible franchise, while number five is Justin Long , who provided the voice for the titular character in the Alvin and the Chipmunks films.

Starting to notice a pattern? Nearly everyone on the top of this list is someone who starred in one TV adaptation that turned into a lucrative franchise. The only exception is Simon Pegg , who has been in two of these franchises: Mission: Impossible and Star Trek trilogy. Home Market Releases for September 26th, September 27th, All are amazing and worth checking out, but none have many extras, so it is up to the role of the dice to determine the Pick of the Week.

D: Legend of Ravaging Dynasties September 26th, I try to average one review a week and this week I had two potential screeners I could request. D: Legend of Ravaging Dynasties , a computer animated Chinese film that most of our readers have probably never heard of, and Transformers: The Last Knight , the latest installment in one of the biggest franchises around.

I choose L. D: Legend of Ravaging Dynasties , because even after reading a plot summary, and being utterly confused, I still felt it was the better choice for review. Confusing can still be entertaining, while The Last Knight would just make me angry. Did I make the right choice? Its biggest opening was in the U. If Dunkirk can merely match that movie's worldwide figure, then it will break even before it reaches the home market.

The real challenge is surpassing Wonder Woman and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 for top spot on the worldwide chart for the summer. It is too soon to tell if it will get there for sure, but this is a great start. The weekend box office chart held few surprises. Every film in the top five was close to our predictions , while the top two films were a little stronger. Only Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 is ahead of it in that regard.

Despicable Me 3 held on better than most films this summer and will become a monster hit thanks to its international numbers. Unfortunately, this is still 5. This lead could be completely gone by the weekend. Its biggest opening came from the U. However, its decline from Minions means Universal is more likely to make a second and third Minions movie rather than a fourth Despicable Me. As someone who prefers the Despicable Me movies, this is disappointing.

July 5th, The weekend box office chart was as predicted , at least in terms of the order. This is almost as much as it cost to make.

On the positive side, Monday and Tuesday were much stronger than usual, so rather than looking at the weekend box office and saying it is weaker than anticipated, we could instead say the weekend box office was stretched out over five days.

In Defense of Rotten Tomatoes July 4th, Rotten Tomatoes is a very shallow site, especially the Tomatometer. And B. It is killing in-depth critical examination of movies. That was the last Shrek movie, and this might be a good time for Gru to call it a day.

This is the best single day for an animated film this year. This is a little distressing. June 25th, The studio is in desperate need of a hit, and the Transformers franchise is by far their biggest property.

So all eyes are going to be on its overseas performance. If we again compare this to Dark of the Moon , which is the last film in the franchise to open on a Wednesday, we get mixed messages. The international numbers will save this film and justify more sequels.

Fortunately, Cars 3 and Wonder Woman should have strong holds this weekend and that will help the overall box office numbers.
