>Paramount and Hasbro’s “Transformers: The Last Knight” has generated a moderate $15.7 million in first-day business Wednesday in North America, signaling a launch in the $65 million range for the first five days.

>The domestic launch at 4,069 sites of the fifth Transformers film came in somewhat below studio forecasts, which had been about $70 million for the Wednesday-Sunday period. With a production cost of $217 million, “Transformers: The Last Knight” is a high-stakes bet that’s dependent on its overseas performance to wind up with a profit.

>It’s opening day number is also below that of any other movie in the modern franchise. The 2007 original grossed $36.6 million when it opened on a Tuesday. 2009’s “Revenge of the Fallen” earned $62 million on a Wednesday, and 2011’s “Dark of the Moon” — also launched on a Wednesday — brought in $37.7 million. “Age of Extinction,” the most recent installment before “Last Knight” opened on a Friday to $41.9 million.

Is this finally it, /tv/? Are this shitty movies finally dead? Will capeshit go down the same road?

No, because China and all the foreigners are going to save it. Why is the rest of the world such plebs compared to America?

Fuck Michael Bay and get ready for the first actual Transformers live action kino in existence.

Well it's the last movie yea?
I like the idea. Optimus is the big bad and Megatron not only saving the earth but also being the big bad. The reluctant villain becomes the savior

2bh its because they released it on a Wednesday instead of a Friday. The film was really entertaining, but it's an acquired taste just like the 4th one. For me, I started off liking the 1st but hating the rest. Then I rewatched the them and look past whats on the screen and appreciate Bay's shooting style and how he can intentionally go all out crazy on humor and action. He knows its ridiculous, it like those Crank movies. Bay's a genius.

Transformers will be a success still. Eat shit """"critics"""".

Good, it's absolutely horrible. I truly hated it.

Reminder vulgar auteur posters are pretty much pretentious plebs. Your average pleb who likes this garbage would just say "I like the action, bro", the pretentious plebs like these flicks for the exact same reason but instead of simply saying "I like the action, bro" they incoherently ramble about Bay's cinematography. These flicks have as much thematic depth as a car commercial but apparently that doesn't matter because "MUH VULGAR AUTEURISM! MUH FLASHY VISUALS!"

US box office doesn't matter. Most of the profits of these movies come from outside the US.

>>84188596
First year film students are the ones who regurgitate this vulgar auteurism bullshit. Instead of acting like a pretentious faggot just admit you like explosions.

Michael "the saviour of cinema" Bay

>>84184763
Fucking finally. This franchise should have been buried for five years and rebooted with better writers and a better director after Revenge of the Fallen.
>>
>>84184952
Kind of. mostly ironically.

Transformers are really cool to hate, every single entry level pleb rants about it being the worst thing ever, despite orgasming over marginally better shit. Being contrarian makes some sense here, because this is really annoying.
