Michael Bay’s Box Office Chart

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen has crossed even the wildest expectations of its makers and fans in terms of box office gross. It made a jaw-dropping $60.6 million in it’s first day alone, and has grossed $170 million in total so far (it’s been playing in US theaters for only three days!). The guys over at MovieFill have published an interesting chart comparing the budgets for Bay’s last seven movies, their box office gross and their opening weekend gross. The chart suggests that the larger the budget for a Michael Bay movie, the larger is it’s box office gross. But notice how much steeper the red line is compared to the yellow line. That suggests increasing Bay’s budget by a small amount results in a dramatically increased total gross. Are the studios taking note?

Warner Bros debuted the full-length theatrical trailer for Chris Nolan’s Inception in theaters in front of Iron Man 2 a few days back. There aren’t many words to describe how incredibly epic and amazing this looks, but beautiful and stunning and mesmerizing are a few that fit best. Watching this trailer, you will agree that Inception is the most anticipated movie this summer. This just looks so phenomenal.

Inception is both written and directed by acclaimed Oscar nominated British filmmaker Christopher Nolan, of Memento, Insomnia, Batman Begins, The Prestige and The Dark Knight. Nolan previously co-wrote the scripts for Memento, Batman Begins, The Prestige, and The Dark Knight with his brother Jonathan Nolan. Warner Bros is bringing Inception to theaters starting on July 16th this summer.
