Record Box Office for “Transformers”

  As kind of expected, “Trasnformers” has been a hit. Not only a hit at the box office, but also a nostalgic return in their childhood for the old fans of the Hasbro toys that has first appeared in the 1980s.

Starring young actors like now-famous Shia LaBeouf, as well as other popular ones like Jon Voight for example, “Transformers” has broke box office records since its official opening day of Tuesday, when it took in no less than $27.4 million.

Before even hitting the weekend, the movie has had $65.7 million at the box office. The film’s creator, Michael Bay has already started to think of a sequel, while Paramount Pictures improved the occasion for promoting an upcoming action movie titled “Cloverfield”.

Being already famous for his big-budget spectacular movie such as “Pearl Harbor” and “Armageddon”, Michael Bay has reached a high point of fame with his latest creation.

He had previously announced that his next project would be a screen adaptation of “Prince of Persia”, which was a famous game. But now, that “Transformers” is such a hit, a sequel would be just right to be thought about. So, would Bay have the necessary time for working to both the sequel and “Prince of Persia”?

On the other hand, would Paramount’s “Cloverfield”, which has been a top secret movie project till the other days, become another box officer record breaker after being promoted by “Transfomers”? Being directed by Matt Reeves and produced by J.J. Abrams, the new movie would have good potential, while its cast formed of relative unknown actors could be positive surprise.

However, till “Cloverfield” will hit the screens, “Transformers” is breaking box office records. Its creators are happy, its fans are even happier, so everybody has been overwhelmed with gratitude!
