So don't go re-affirming your belief in God just yet. As a side note, this movie needs an easier acronym. We obviously can't use T2.

On principle, I want the movie to drop heavily, from a being-petty point of view, I want Michael bay taken down a peg or two but for very selfish reasons, i would like Bonaventura to have a hit with this as I'm not clear how G. I. Joe will perform commercially. Oh well, can't have it all. Ugh, I'm so conflicted!

Oh, and when the estimates end up being too high on the first weekend, it normally means bad holds (whereas with TDK the estimates were too low, portending the good holds that followed). So I think we can expect a nice, quick drop from the throne for Transformers 2. God still exists, then.

I don't think this movie is critic proof though since next weekend its going to drop more than 60%. It was predictable that word of mouth hurt their overall total.
