Weekend Box Office: It’s a TIE!

I know! It doesn’t seem possible, but people are still flocking to the theaters to see Transformers: ROTF. In it’s second week in theaters Transformers was able to tie with the third film in the highly successful Ice Age series at the box office. Meanwhile Michael Mann’s latest 30′s story about bank robber John Dillinger starring Johnny Depp and Christian Bale came in a distant third. Ouch.
