As we reported would be the case on Sunday, Transformers Revenge of the Fallen has now broken into the top 10 grossing movies ever within the US and we expect it will move past Star Wars Episode III into 9th slot by the end of the week. The movie, which has grossed just under $380 million within the US alone would need to pass $404 million in order to take the number 8th slot away from Spider-man.
On the worldwide listings Transformers Revenge of the Fallen is now up to 23rd position and is set to pass E.T into 22nd within the next few days (if it has not already done so as collating worldwide ticket sales is always slower than US sales). Its quiet possible that the film will find it self taking the number 20 slot by the time it stops being screening in cinemas. It is currently reported as having grossed $791.6 million worldwide
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen is set to break the $650 million dollar mark for it's grossing this weekend with the current takings standing at $648,102,242 (consisting of $315,007,925 domestic and $333,094,317 international).
China is the second highest grossing area for the film with the UK in third.
Japanese website Ami-Ami has been updated with three new listings of Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Human Alliance toys.
RA-25 ?????????????? (Skids, Arcee and Mikaela)
RA-22 ?????????????? (Sideswipe and Epps)
RA-21 ?????????????????? (Bumblebee and Sam)
Having a quick look at BoxOfficeMojo you can see a nice comparison page for the Domestic (US) takings of Transformers, Iron Man and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. A basic summary breaks down as follows
US Domestic earnings
Transformers: $319,246,193
Iron Man: $318,412,101
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen: $268,700,00
Worldwide Takings
Transformers: $708,252,592
Iron Man: $585,133,287
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen: $508,915,819
Interestingly Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen has now taken 68 million dollars more (in the US) then it's cost to make, and is only $85million dollars behind Iron Man's worldwide total takings. (Obviously there has probably been an increase in box office pricing since the previous two films).
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen is already the 38th highest grossing film in the US and 66th worldwide.
Japanese website Hobby Search has listed various upcoming Takara-Tomy Transformers Revenge figures, including a new re-molded version of the Leader Class Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Optimus Prime toy.

Hollywood Reporter is confirming that Paramount is reporting $60.6 million in ticket sales for Wednesday.
Also Variety.com have just reported that Revenge Of The Fallen has taken a massive $60.6 million on it's opening day in the US, which is the highest ever single day take from a Wednesday opening film and is the second highest behind The Dark Knight's record of $67.2 million first day (friday opening).

Paramount was looking for bigger with Michael Bay's highly anticipated Transformers sequel and it looks like they've got it. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen debuted to a record $16 million last night, the most ever for a Wednesday midnight run. (Warner Bros.' The Dark Knight scored $18 million for its midnight run last year, but that was on a Friday.)
So how high will Transformers 2's grosses go this weekend? Predictions have ranged anywhere from $125 million to $160 million for the five-day frame. Whatever the number, it will be good news for the box office, which is having trouble maintaining last summer's record draw.
