Box: Stop Rebooting Franchises That Aren't Even a Decade Old

1. Transformers 4 - $103m / $103m / $265m
2. How To Train Your Dragon 2 - $16m / $125m / $175m
3. 22 Jump Street - $15m / $140m / $175m
4. Think Like a Man Too - $13m / $51.5m / $77m
5. Maleficent - $9m / $202.5m / $225m
6. Jersey Boys - $8m / $28m / $48m
7. Edge of Tomorrow - $6m / $85m / $100m
8. The Fault In Our Stars - $5m / $110m / $123m
9. X-Men: Days of Future Past - $3.5m / $223.5m / $231m
10. Chef - $1.3m / $19m / $24m

Well, along comes Michael Bay to potentially save the summer or put a final nail in its coffin.  Transformers desperately needs a $100m+ opening, not really for itself.  The film will be a monster worldwide.  It needs it because this summer has been so lackluster, and it would be weird not to have one $100m+ opener during the summer season.  Also, I had no idea what the subtitle of the film was until I just looked it up.  Can you tell I have no interest in this shit?
