Transformers obliterates Asian box office

TRANSFORMERS has earned $5.2-million during five weeks in Malaysian theatres, surpassing SPIDER-MAN 3 to earn the all time box office crown for that territory. The Michael Bay action flick also surpassed both HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX and THE SIMPSONS MOVIE to take the #1 position.

That’s not the only achievement in Asian markets. TRANSFORMERS is also now the biggest non-sequel in Singapore, with $4.6-million to date.
