YOUR WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: Paramount’s latest Transformers spectacle achieved the biggest opening of the year this weekend—a cool $100 million—knocking Godzilla from his scaly perch. Draw what conclusions you will about humanity. Of course, global revenues are what this one’s all about; the flick’s raked in $80m overseas so far. Meanwhile, action-bromance sequel 22 Jump Street, despite earning 15% of what Michael Bay’s robots did, is on track to earn triple what it cost to make in just one month.
Two platformed new releases, John Carney’s music-centered rom-com Begin Again and Bong Joon-Ho’s buzzing sci-fi adventure Snowpiercer, earned hefty audience averages (29k and 20k, respectively) in a handful of venues. (6/30a)
