Despite featuring two of the most blatantly racist characters — real or mechanical — since The Black Crows from “Dumbo,” the Shia LaBeouf starring (although 75 percent of you saw it for Megan Fox) “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” made $201.2 million in just five days.
A rather impressive feat considering a.) it was gorgeous outside for the majority of the weekend b.) Megan Fox never gets naked and c.) the movie is utter crap.
And while it was unable to best “The Dark Knight’s” $203.8 million five-day gross (thank jeebus for that one), the film did trump “Spider-Man 2’s” record for best five-day gross for a movie released on a Wednesday.
Man, Hollywood box office records are a little bit like trophies in T-ball, everybody gets one!
Did you think “Transformers” was as racist as I did?
