Revenge of the Fallen Has Fallen A Tad Short

MICHAEL BAY BOOM DEVIL

So the 5 day weekend for the epic throw up that is Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen has come to a close. The results are in and it falls short of the domestic 5 day box office records, which is held by the Dark Knight with $203.8 million. Transformers fell short with a measily $201.2 million, snap, so close, but at least quality prevails in this epic battle. But this has proven to be the highest grossing worst rated film ever. With the calculations of the overseas box offices, the total count comes to a little over $400 million. This battle between critics and box office ratings proves that critics views have no effect on the public as ROTF has gained more money than predicted. It also broke the IMAX box office record for an opening, but with so many IMAX screens popping up, the number becomes a tad useless. Will this push Paramount and Michael Bay to shoot for a 2011 date or will Bay stick to his 2012 date? Will Michael Bay even do the third, or even Orci and Kurtzman? WHO KNOWS?!?!? Let’s hope there is another writers strike and the next movie has robots having sex, might as well just add both of Bay’s elements together to make another pile of crap that makes more money than you do in your lifetime….

Transformers: ROTF Writer Interview

TF2SteelPoster

SuperheroHype! got a chance to sit down with the writer’s of ROTF Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, minus Ehren Kruger. SHH interviewed the writers and talked all about their new movie and the process that led to this $200 million  extravaganza of a summer popcorn blockbuster alien robot epic of a film; also a few other things that are in the works for the creative dynamic duo.

SHH!: What about pressures of writing a sequel? When you wrote the first one, no one knew it was going to do that well, but as you wrote the second one, was there a lot of pressure to fit in stuff you weren’t able to do the first time?

Kurtzman: I think frankly, you have to tune out the noise, both of the first movie and just what the expectations are for the sequel. You find the emotional link that you have to the movie and you write to that, and working with Michael, you always know that the action is going to be big. Our job is to actually focus on the small things and hope that the emotional story can be told within the context of the movie Michael wants to make.
Orci: Luckily, there were a lot of things from the first movie that we didn’t get to do, so that we already had some material going into this one.”

The Bayformers Are Done! (Updated)

MICHAEL BAY BOOM

TotalFilm has reported that the Baydomonium is over! He has thrown in the towel and will not be doing Transformers 3. The little guy must be a little upset because he claims, “They (the critics) review me before they’ve even seen the movie.” Poor Mr. Bay, maybe we’ll get a Transformers movie that sticks to plot and has a good/real Transformers story. We can finally leave the plot holes, robot testies, robots peeing, retardobots, car commercial filming and whack stories behind us as this marks a tremendous day in history. I’m sure the geewhuners are rioting in the streets in celebration and harmony.……

Update, unfortunately Mr. Bay responds back on his website saying, “Hah, love press how they spin. Never said it – just wanted a vacation is more to the point. And no I don’t read the good or the bad reviews.”

Fandangwowzers, ‘Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’ 45% Of Sales

primme 4

Revenge of the Fallen is outselling Star Trek fast on Fandango. With 45% of sales on Fandango going to ROTF, this mega hit is producing steam and not stopping. This will definitely be a huge hit, not so much a good movie……, but it will definitely pay the bills. I predict that this little robot flick will be the highest grossing movie of the summer.

Fandango has surveyed nearly 2,000 moviegoers planning to see Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Among the findings:

* 88% of respondents said they are fans of director Michael Bay; 66% of them picked Transformers as their favorite Bay film.
* 77% of respondents say they were fans of Transformers when they were kids; 68% of those fans watched the cartoon series, while 61% played with the toys.
* 45% picked Optimus Prime as their favorite Transformer; 21% picked Bumblebee; 4% picked Megatron.
* 62% of respondents are 18-34 years old; 63% are male.
