"Transformers 2"...a week in, still doing MAJOR box office damage

Considering the current state of the economy, Transformers 2 is doing some serious damage at the box office. Since its release, which was last Wednesday mind you, Transformers 2 has raked in about $251 MILLION dollars world wide. That's incredible. Right now it just means that they've recouped the production costs of making the movie, which was estimated to be between $200 and $300 million dollars. Yes, people still spend that on production. The first Transformers movie only had a budget of $150 million dollars, which is pretty low for a production with that many special effects. Nevertheless, Transformers 2 is holding on to the top spot strong, pulling in 11.1 million dollars Thursday alone.
If you have been living under a rock and haven't seen the movie, scramble up that last 10 bucks you have and go see it. The movie is PSYCHO. Not crazy, PSYCHO. Strangely, they were able to sneak some quality laughs in, which makes the movie a trillion times better than the first. And the visuals. *sighs* The visuals are simply A-MAZE-ING. If nothing else, you walk out of the theatre feeling as though you've been on a journey, heck, a vacation. The only thing I warn you about concerning the movie is that it is SUPER long. 2hrs and like 40 min. But it is OH SO GOOD. I am seriously considering seeing it again. Considering.
