Transformers 3 Fifth All Time Movie

Unbelievably, Transformers Dark of the Moon is highly successful by becoming the fifth highest-grossing movie of all time worldwide! This is quite surprising despite the bad rating on Rotten Tomatoes. With it's total current gross of $1.097 billion worldwide (31.8% in the US, 68.2% elsewhere) behind  Avatar, Titanic, Harry Porter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, it surpasses both of its two predecessors. It reached that position and total gross in just 55 days. It is also the second highest grossing movie of 2011. It is the highest-grossing movie ever in Malaysia, my home country ($11,8 million or MYR 35.05 million) !

The movie is the 10th movie ever to cross the $1billion threshold and the first movie in Paramount Picture's 99 year existence.

Brad Grey, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of Paramount Pictures [said,] “We are grateful for the extraordinary work of Michael Bay and his film-making team, executive producer Steven Spielberg, and everyone at Paramount around the globe who played a part in helping make this latest TRANSFORMERS one of the 10 highest grossing films worldwide of all time."

Thanks to its successful 3D tickets sales, the movie is able to easily rake in such huge gross. Anyway, thanks to Michael Bay and co for the milestone and for making the best Transformers live action movie ever.

Transformers rocks!


Prime: We will rule them all!
