The Weekend Warrior made uncannily accurate predictions for the two new wide releases. He thought they would combine for $123.8m and they may hit that exact number when the final numbers are tallied Monday. It will be extremely close either way.

Transformers kicked some serious ass with $112m. It is tracking with The Dark Knight, and also mirrored the Batfilm in terms of the marketing studies, but I find it hard to believe that it can hold that pace in the long run. We're talking about a movie with 20% positive reviews, versus 90-something% for The Dark Knight. Transformers has to start falling behind eventually.

Surprisingly, the week was only 9% higher than last year, when the 1-2 punch of Wall-E and Wanted took in about as much as The Transformers 2. While Transformers was a powerhouse star this weekend, it had no supporting cast.
