Transformers 2 Ends Up as #1 for the Year…Sort Of
Thu, Jan 21, 2010
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen made the most money out of any movie in the 2009 calendar year. So that means it’s the #1 movie of the year, right? Well, sort of.
If you’re counting by what made the most money out of any movie released in 2009, Transformers 2 drops down to #2, replaced by — you guessed it — Avatar. James Cameron’s flick is currently at $513 and rising, versus Transformers 2’s distant $402 million. The third spot goes to Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, with $301 million. After that, there’s a good five movies ranging from $229-293 million.
But within the calendar year? Avatar had only made $284 million by December 31st, so Transformers 2 still has it.
