At least, if you count the 5-day record, which is different from the 3, 4 or whatever day record that studios concoct to make an opening look better. Kind of like ads proclaiming a movie is the No. 1 comedy when there aren't any fresh ones out there competing.

According to BoxOfficeGuru.com,, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen pulled a 5-day haul of $201.2 million domestically (with $89.2 earned before the traditional Friday-to-Sunday span that's typically reported). That's second only to The Dark Knight that grossed $203.8 million last year. The Friday-to-Sunday total ranks seventh all-time.

Michael Bay's sequel will soon become 2009's top-grossing movie. Up sits atop the list with $250.2 million, and stalling after a good month in theaters.
